For the best results, use high-quality steak and fresh ingredients. Adjust searing times to your liking, depending on the thickness of your steak and desired level of doneness. Be careful when basting with whiskey, as it can cause flare-ups on the grill. If you don't have a charcoal grill, you can also use a gas grill or a cast iron skillet on the stovetop. If using a skillet, ensure it is screaming hot before adding the steak. Experiment with different types of whiskey and soy sauce to find your favorite flavor combination.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPrepare a blazing hot hardwood charcoal fire using oak, mesquite, or hickory. Ensure the coals are glowing red and radiating intense heat. (Prep time: 15-20 minutes)
02
StepRub the steak all over with avocado oil. Generously coat the entire surface with coarse sea salt, ensuring complete coverage. (Prep time: 2 minutes)
03
StepPour the Japanese whiskey into a shallow bowl and set aside. (Prep time: 1 minute)
04
StepPlace the steak on the hottest part of the grill and sear for approximately 2 1/2 minutes per side, creating a rich, initial crust. (Cook time: 5 minutes)
05
StepTransfer the steak to the bowl of whiskey, turning constantly for at least 1 minute. This will partially rinse off the salt and infuse the meat with the whiskey's flavor. (Cook time: 1 minute)
06
StepReturn the steak to the hottest spot on the grill for the second sear. Sear both sides again for about 2 1/2 minutes per side, basting with a small amount of whiskey while searing for added flavor. (Cook time: 5 minutes)
07
StepAdd soy sauce to another shallow bowl. Place the steak into the bowl, turning constantly for at least 1 minute to coat. (Cook time: 1 minute)
08
StepReturn the steak to the hottest part of the grill for the third and final sear. Grill both sides for about 2 1/2 minutes, or until your desired doneness is reached. For a rosy-pink inside, aim for an internal temperature of 118 to 120°F (48 to 50°C) when measured with an instant-read thermometer. (Cook time: 5 minutes)
09
StepBrush the steak with melted butter, allowing it to rest for 3 to 4 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak. (Rest time: 3-4 minutes)
10
StepSlice the steak against the grain and serve immediately, drizzling any accumulated juices from the plate over the top. Enjoy! (Prep time: 1 minute)
