Weber's Real Grilling Ingredients:
1 large ancho chili, about 1/2 ounce, stem and seeds removed |
3 plum tomatoes, cored and cut in half lengthwise |
2 slices red onions, each about 1/2 inch thick |
extra virgin olive oil |
2 garlic cloves, smashed |
3 tablespoons cider vinegar |
2 teaspoons light brown sugar |
1 teaspoon dried oregano |
1 teaspoon kosher salt |
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice |
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves |
4 (12 ounce) rib eye steaks, about 1-inch thick |
1 teaspoon paprika |
1 teaspoon kosher salt |
1/2 teaspoon light brown sugar |
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Make the sauce: in a small bowl, cover the ancho chile with 3/4 cup boiling and allow the chile to soften for 20-30 minutes, turning occasionally. 2. Lightly brush or spray the tomatoes and onions with oil. 3. Grill over direct high heat until slightly charred, 8-10 minutes, turning once. 4. Place the chile and soaking water, tomatoes, and onions in a blender or food processor; add in the remaining sauce ingredients; process until completely smooth, about 1 minute. 5. Pour the sauce into a saucepan; bring to a boil over high heat then decrease heat to a simmer and for 5-10 minutes; remove from heat. 6. Pour half of the sauce into a small bowl to brush on the steaks as they grill; reserve the rest to serve with the steaks. 7. The steaks: let the steaks stand at room temperature for 20-30 minutes before grilling. 8. In a small bowl, combine the paprika, salt, brown sugar, and pepper. 9. Lightly brush or spray the steaks on both sides with oil; season with the spice mixture. 10. Grill the steaks over direct high heat until cooked to desired doneness, 6-8 minutes for medium-rare, brushing with sauce and turning once. 11. Remove from grill and let rest for 3-5 minutes; serve warm with the reserved sauce. |
