This was the most funnest (I don’t care if that’s not really a word) shoot ever! Why? For the following 4 reasons:

1) I wasn’t alone. I am mostly all by my lonesome (boo hoo hoo) in front of the camera and it can get hard to keep smiling and keep my energy up throughout a 16 hour day. So it was SOOOOOO great to have my friend Naf Hanau from GrowandBehold.com co-host this BEST EVER STEAK episode with me. We were talking and eating and making his secret spice rub and my secret sauce and grilling steaks to perfection, what could be better? (No more tears for me!)
2) Naf and his wife Anna are such a pleasure. And have such cute kids. And such an amazing business with such a delicious quality product and such impeccable customer service. It makes working with them and GrowandBehold.com not really work at all.
3) Tamar was there. (look for her cameo at the end of the episode.) We shot this episode in New York in Naf and Anna’s Brooklyn backyard (and kitchen) so Tamar came to hang and help on set for the day. (Really letting me put my feet up between takes cause it makes such a difference with the swelling. LOVE YOU TAMAR!)

4) The steaks were SO GOOD. Like really SO GOOD. Like SO SO GOOD that I felt bad for Hubby that he wasn’t there to taste and test and taste s’more. Lately he has been stuck eating 18 pounds of challah and a bunch of cheesecake riff recipes (and he doesn’t even like cheesecake!). So this was hard for him and even hard for me – cause his pain is my pain. I almost couldn’t bare it if not for the incredible steak I was eating.

Always let your meat rest before cutting into it so all of the juices don’t run out.
I’ve never grilled a steak before, just cooked it in the oven. I wrap it up with onions and green peppers.
My favorite rub to use is McCormicks GrillMates steak rub. I like to add a few of mr favorite spices to it and mix and then rub on my meat and let sit in my refridgerator overnight so that the spices seep into the meat and then grill. I don’t poke my meat while it is grilling to hold in the juices and once off the grill, I let it sit for 5-10 minutes before eating.
My favorite rub is called Bodacious and I’m lucky that my husband or son-in-law do the grilling. I love steak!
Looks delicious! Great job Naftali!
I use the kosher palette marinade with fresh rosemary from my garden. Yum!
A little salt and pepper! That’s all!
I can’t wait to make this deliciousness!
Guys, the instagram link is incorrect!
I marinate steaks with a mix of spices, soy sauce and olive oil before grilling.
My favorite rub for steak is Montreal Steak Rub!
I use lemon, garlic, olive oil and tamari overnight. soft as butter!
Go Grow and Behold!
I like the Montreal Steak Seasoning!
I rub my steak with a garlic clove and salt and pepper and sometime I add some herbs like rosemary or thyme
We just rub it with salt and pepper.

Coffee rub! It’s kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, instant coffee granules and brown sugar. Makes a perfect crust on steak!
just salt! and i like it rare.
I make my own rub with a secret ingredient- coffee!

Maple smokey McCormick!!
Salt and pepper is classic. But sometimes we add a little sage or Rosemary.
Actually, I need to amend my comment: Many times I will mix crushed garlic with the olive oil before rubbing on the meat.
If you have a good piece of beef, there is little needed to get the best flavor. I usually just rub a little olive oil, fresh ground pepper and sea salt. After grilling, I cover with foil to rest before serving.
My mouth is watering for some juicy steaks and it’s only 8:45 am!!!! I use Montreal steak seasoning and out on a mix of barbecue sauce water with Freah garlic ! Would love to win some grow and behold steaks
Add your rub and then wait a while for the flavors to join to the meat.
I like plain old salt & fresh crushed pepper
I like to season with salt, pepper, garlic and a little butter or olive oil at the end.
We like a rub of dark brown sugar, basil, cayenne pepper, chipotle pepper, salt and some garlic
rosemary sprigs
I stick with A1
i have this awesome maple burbon rub. so good.
i use italian dressing for marinade
i love the spicy rubs!
I’m a fan of going basic with some salt & pepper on a good steak. Maybe some Worcestershire sauce to add a little more flavor on the grill.
I use a spicy rub before I grill my steak.
butter, that is my secret
Get a meat thermometer. It’s so worth it. Perfect steak every time!
This rub looks amazing will have to try it next time I bbq. I love Grow and Behold prosucts!
Steaks look awesome!! Would love to win some of them! Gotta try that rub! Big fan!
Some ground pepper and a little sea salt.
I really do not have a favorite rub. I have purchased or mixed a few and they were ok but i tend to prefer just a minuscule amount of salt and pepper and am thrilled with how it turns out. There is something called Montreal seasoning that i have seen at Costco and have been tempted to try it one day. I have had some fairly major health problems and the nearest kosher butcher would be about a 35 or so minute drive from me which is something i have been unable to do for well over a year now and would give anything to have something that mooooed at one time on my plate. Thank you for this opportunity.
Salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder is all you need if you have a great piece of meat.
We use Worcestershire sauce.
marinate in wine
Am not a big steak eater but do enjoy having one occassionaly. The steak pictured looks like one I would not turn down.
Fave steak rub is simply salt & pepper. I like the meat to speak for itself.

just salt and pepper and a little olive oil is fine.
