Ingredients

  • 2
    10-ounce Grass Fed New York Strip Steaks, boneless (1-inch thick)
  • 2
    teaspoons L&B Steak Seasoning
  • 1/4
    cup honey
  • 1/4
    cup white balsamic vinegar
  • 1 1/2
    cups fresh blackberries, divided
  • 1
    teaspoon finely chopped parsley (optional)

Directions

  1. 1

    Season both sides of the steaks with steak seasoning and wrap in plastic wrap. Chill
    for 1 hour.

  2. 2

    Heat grill to high. While grill is heating, make the gastrique. Place the honey in a medium sauce pan and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until it turns dark amber in color, about 3 to 5 minutes. Honey will froth and bubble so be careful not to let it boil over. Add the vinegar and 1 cup blackberries and continue cooking on medium-low to low heat until the mixture has reduced to a
    syrupy consistency, about 12 minutes.

  3. 3

    Put gastrique through a fine mesh strainer, mashing berries with a spoon to strain out the blackberry seeds and press as much of the berries through the sieve as possible. Discard seeds.

  4. 4

    Place the steaks on the grill and cook until golden brown and slightly charred, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the steaks over and continue to grill 3 to 4 minutes for medium-rare (an internal temperature of 135 F), 4 to 6 minutes for medium (140 F) or 7 to 9 minutes for medium-well (150 F).

  5. 5

    Remove steaks from grill and let rest for 5 minutes. Divide gastrique between steaks and drizzle across the top of each steak. Garnish with remaining berries and chopped parsley.
