Grilled New York Strip Steaks

Grilled Montreal New York Strip Steak – Tender and juicy Montreal style New York Strip Steak marinated and seared on a hot grill. These steaks are super easy and always turn out so delicious!

Montreal seasoning is a very coarse and delicious peppery seasoning. You can pick this up at your local grocery store. Because the seasoning is so coarse, I like to cook the steaks on the grill so the seasoning does not fall off like it would in a pan.

The steak is tenderized with a fork and then marinated in red wine vinegar, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce and garlic.

Searing the steaks over high heat on both sides seals in all the juices giving you the most delicious end result! I can’t wait for you to try this recipe!

We served our steaks with French fries and green beans. You can also serve steaks with a fresh salad, baked potato and more. I’ll link a few more side dish ideas for you below.

This recipe calls for two 1 lb. New York steaks which will serve 2-4 people depending on everyone’s appetite. If you are cooking for a larger crowd, you can easily double or triple the recipe.

New York Steaks – Two 1 lb. New York strip steaks. You can also use ribeye steaks in this recipe.

Olive Oil – Olive oil to marinade steaks.

Red Wine Vinegar – Adds a delicious flavor and tenderness to the steak. You can also substitute for white wine vinegar.

TOOLS TO HAVE ON HAND:

• Grill – Gas or charcoal

• Tongs – To turn your steak over.
• Measuring Spoons – For properly measuring ingredients for this recipe.
• Meat Thermometer – To check the temperature of your steak to ensure doneness.

HOW TO MAKE GRILLED MONTREAL NEW YORK STRIP STEAK:

Pat steaks dry and set on a plate. Tenderize meat with a fork by making several holes on each side.

Evenly drizzle both sides of steaks with olive oil, red wine vinegar and Worcestershire sauce. Rub steaks all over with minced fresh garlic and Montreal seasoning.

Cover and transfer steaks to the fridge for at least 2 hours up to 24 hours. Pull steaks out of the fridge 30 minutes before cooking.

Set grill temperature to high heat (450 – 500 degrees F.)

Once grill is hot, brush grill grates with oil. Sear strips approximately 3-5 minutes per side over direct heat or until internal temperature reaches about 125-130 degrees F for medium-rare. For medium you’ll want an internal temperature of about 135-140 degrees.

Take steaks off grill and let rest a few minutes before serving. Serve with a slice of butter and chopped green onions (optional).

HOW TO KNOW WHEN YOUR STEAK IS DONE: STEAK TEMPERATURES:

120 degree internal temperature for a rare steak. 125-130 degrees will give you a medium-rare steak. If you like your steak cooked longer, 135-140 degrees for medium and 145-150 degrees for medium-well and 160 for well-done.

HOW TO STORE AND REHEAT LEFTOVER STEAK:

Store leftover steak completely cooled in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. To reheat the steaks: Preheat oven to 275 degrees. Place steaks in a shallow baking dish and cook for about 15-20 minutes in the oven or until internal temp reaches about 120 degrees
