Steak-Out Saturdays at Rittenhouse

by Jason Ruch

Here at Di Bruno Bros. on Chestnut, we like to celebrate a little something called “Steak-Out Saturday” the first Saturday of every month. What is this special day? To put it simply, we select a steak of the month and offer it to customers as a buy-2-get-1-free deal. With the grilling season upon us, this past weekend was our biggest Steak-Out of the year.

Last month we featured the New York Strip Steak. Not a chef? Cooking the NY Strip is easier than you think. Here is our favorite way to do this steak on the
grill:

Fire up your grill on high for at least 15 minutes until it reaches its hottest point (about 450˚), this is important for searing the outside of your steak. Place your steak on the grill, wait 5 minutes and flip the steak. You are looking for the outside to become very dark in color, but not charred. Once both sides are seared, move the steak to a surface of the grill that is not as hot as the main cooking surface and continue to grill at this lower temperature for another couple of minutes. If you have a lid on your grill, you can close the lid and shorten the time per side to 4 minutes for the searing process. Do not flip more than once. Remove the steak from the grill, place a half of a tablespoon of butter on each steak and let sit for 5 minutes, or, for the adventurous cooks, Di Bruno Bros. offers a wide selection of spices and marinades from across the globe that would pair great with any steak.

The next “Steak-Out” will happen on Saturday, May 1st, so be sure to stop in and see which steak will make the cut!
