Blackstone Steak Recipe is a simple and reliable way to cook juicy, perfectly seared steak on a flat top griddle with bold seasoning and a rich buttery finish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ribeye or New York strip steaks (1 inches thick)
  • 1 tablespoon high smoke point oil (avocado oil or vegetable oil)
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, smashed (optional)
  • 12 sprigs fresh thyme or rosemary (optional)

Instructions

  1. Remove steaks from the refrigerator 30–45 minutes before cooking to bring closer to room temperature.
  2. Pat steaks completely dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
  3. Preheat the Blackstone griddle to high heat (approximately 450–500°F surface temperature) for at least 10 minutes.
  4. Add oil to the griddle and spread evenly.
  5. Place steaks on the hot surface and press gently to ensure full contact. Cook undisturbed for 3–4 minutes to form a crust.
  6. Flip the steaks and cook another 3–4 minutes for medium-rare, adjusting time based on thickness and desired doneness.
  7. During the final minute, add butter, garlic, and herbs. Spoon melted butter over the steaks to baste.
  8. Use a meat thermometer to check internal temperature (130–135°F for medium-rare).
  9. Remove steaks from the griddle and let rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • For best results, choose well-marbled steaks like ribeye.
  • Do not flip the steak too early; allow a proper crust to form first.
  • Pull the steak off the heat about 5 degrees before your target temperature to allow for carryover cooking.
  • Resting the steak is essential for juicy results.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
