Lee & Perrins worcestershire sauce and Cavanders Greek Seasoning

I've said before and I'll say it again, Tony's & Lemon Pepper nuff said.

Tex Joy

Simple salt, pepper and a little garlic powder is hard to beat on a quality piece of meat.

Harley & bowed up hit the nail on the head! I have tried a variety of spices with a variety of fajita steak from Fiesta. They all came out chewy like rubber & I could never get it like some restaurants. By that I mean some but not all restaurants use the same quality meat. So that's where it all comes down to. A quality meat beats all regardless of spices you use. I have tried custom cut steak (T-bone), thickness just like bowed up said, just add some simple salt, pepper, garlic powder, melted butter and it came out the best.

I like Koshar salt,black pepper and garlic powder.If you like it a little spicier,try some chipotle powder on top of that.

3 Tbsp. Lemon Pepper
1 Tbsp. Worcestershire Powder
1 Tbsp. Paprika
1 Tbsp Onion, granulated

For steak, Jimmy O's Steak & Seafood (Lemon Pepper) Rub.

You can put it on the steak hours ahead of time, let the steak come to room temp, and yowza!

 

[Instigator]

Fresh thyme
Garlic
Fresh ground pepper
olive oil
sea salt to taste

Mince the thyme leaves and garlic and mix in salt, pepper and oil to make a paste. Spread on the steaks while they're coming to room temperature.

Garlic powder? Are you guys that pressed for time? If I'm in that big of a hurry I'll just go with Montreal Steak. It's too salty but it's pretty darn good if your chunk of meat has enough heft to stand up to it.

We like to use HEB's brand steak seasoning...Man it is good and really inexpensive. $1.99. I think that it has some big chunks of red pepper in there and not sure what else but it is really tasty!

Kelly

on another note has anyone ever tried the worchestershire and black pepper mixed? That is some good stuff.....

Uncle Chris' is the best. I use it in my charro beans too.

 

[RAYSOR]

I use Saltgrass 7 spice that has been very good,ingredients are your 7 basic grilling spices.

 

[bogan]

Raysor,

Do you mind elaborating on the 7 basic grilling spices? It changes with the region you are in.

Best stuff I've found for steak and brisket rub is "Barnacle Dust". Each batch is mixed, packed, labeled, and shipped from here in Texas by Mike Byerley.
He just put a bunch together for the holiday season, so we stocked up.
about $5 a bottle + shipping.

Here's his contact info.

New user to 2cool, but couldn't resist the temptation to agree with keeping the art of steak simple:
1-1/2" Angus ribeye - sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder
Let sit at room temp. 1 hour before grilling
500 degrees (using gas grill had to grow on me) 3 min per side
