• 1/4 cup black peppercorns
• 3 tablespoons lime pepper
• kosher salt, to taste

2. Cover one side of steaks with crushed pepper and press in firmly, sprinkle with lime pepper seasoning and salt.
3. Turn steaks over and repeat the same process .
4. Place in refrigerator for 3 hours, uncovered.
5. Heat grill, brush grate with vegetable or olive oil and place steaks over hottest part of fire for 3 minutes, turn the steaks over for another 3 minutes.
6. Move the steaks to a cooler part of grill and continue to cook until done to your liking.
