Grilled Chuck Eye Steak

 
What is a Chuck Eye steak? The Chuck Eye steak also known as an English steak, Round Eye steak or Boneless Chuck Fillet and is a low cost alternative to a Rib Eye steak. This steak is beautifully marbled with superb flavor and tenderness. Chuck Eye is the cut next to the Rib Eye just forward of the rib section. Two large Chuck Eye steaks will run you about $8. Chuck Eye steaks are actually kind of hard to find because there is only about 4 steaks per animal. The only place I've been able to find them it is at Albertson's. Give this steak a try and you'll be impressed.
 
Ingredients:
Chuck Eye steaks
Olive oil
Salt and pepper
 
Preparation:
Take the steaks and place on a plate covered with paper towels. The paper towels will help reduce any moisture from the steak. Let the steak come to room temp before grilling.
 
Heat your grill to high. Brush on some olive oil and add a generous amount of salt and pepper. My steaks we about 1-1/2" thick and cooking time does depend on how thick the steaks are so adjust as necessary. Grill for 2-1/2 minutes and rotate 45 degrees and cook for another 2-1/2 minutes. Flip the steak and repeat the process, cook for 2-1/2 minutes, rotate, cook for 2-1/2 minutes.
 
Remove the steaks from the grill, place on a plate and cover with aluminum foil. Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes and you're ready to serve.
