Cooking Method

  1. Set up your grill for direct cooking at 230C.

  3. Place the steak directly over the heat source and allow to grill for approximately 3 minutes per side until the fat has rendered and it is sizzling.

  5. Lightly grill the butter side over direct heat until toasted, approximately 2 minutes then remove from the heat. 
  6. Slice the steak against the grain of the meat into thin slices. 
  7. Assemble your ciabatta sub by adding slices of steak, spoon on chimichurri and garnish with red onion.
