ULTIMATE BBQ BEEF

 

INGREDIENTS: 

For the beef:

• 1 x 800g Rib of Beef, available from your local butcher – cut into steaks
• Brushing oil
• Cracked Black Pepper
• Sea Salt Crystals

For the sauce:

• A few crushed Green Peppercorns
• Handful of Chopped Shallots
• Butter
• 3 Tablespoons of Bull’s-Eye Original BBQ Sauce
• 150ml Double Cream

INSTRUCTIONS:

Step 1 

Get the BBQ smoking hot – with such high quality meat the quicker the sear the better

Step 2 

Allow the beef to sit out of the fridge until it reaches room temperature. Cold meat from the meat straight onto the grill is a definite no

Step 3 

Use some kitchen paper to remove excess moisture from the surfaces of the steaks to ensure they are completely dry

Step 4 

Season well with salt and pepper

Step 5

Brush the BBQ grill with a little oil

Step 6 

3 minutes on each side is normally about right – but cook to your taste

Step 7 

When you’ve got it how you want it, remove from the BBQ and rest for 5-10 minutes in baking paper – resting time means maximum juiciness!

Step 8

While the steaks are resting make the sauce. Fry the shallots in butter at high heat, add the peppercorns, Bull’s-Eye Original BBQ Sauce and cream. Let the mixture bubble slightly until thickened.

Step 9 

Serve with your slaw and potatoes on the side – find out how below! 

GUILT-FREE POTATO SALAD

INSTRUCTIONS:

Step 1

Boil the potatoes for 15 mins or until tender, then drain and cool

Step 2

Stir together the garlic, yogurt, vinegar and sugar with some seasoning, to make the dressing

Step 3

To serve, mix most of the spring onions and mint into the dressing, then pour it over the potatoes. Stir gently, taking care not to break the potatoes up

Step 4

Scatter with the rest of the spring onions and mint to serve

SUPER SIMPLE SLAW

 

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 carrot
• 150g red cabbage
• 150g white cabbage
• 1 red onion
