Servings: 4
- 4 steaks ribeye, sirloin or filet mignon
- 4 tsp kosher salt
Season the steaks with kosher salt on both sides. Leave in the refrigerator uncovered to dry brine for 1 hour.
Fire up your pellet grill to 450°F (230°C)
Remove steaks from the refrigerator and leave them to come to room temperature while pellet grill warms up.
Once pellet grill is at cooking temperature, place steaks on grill grates. Insert a meat probe into one of the steaks, in its thickest part.
Close lid and cook for 5 minutes. Turn steaks and grill for a further 5 minutes. Cook to desired doneness: 120°F for rare, 130°F for medium-rare, and 140°F for medium-rare. Use a meat probe to gauge internal temperature.
Once at desired temperature, pull steaks from grill. Leave on a counter or chopping board to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
