Rosemary Steaks with Cheesy Eggs
- 2 T-bone steaks (about 1 1/2 inches thick, 3 pounds each)
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon liquid smoke
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 sprigs rosemary, cut in half
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- Kosher salt
- 2 cloves garlic, smashed
- 3 sprigs rosemary
- 8 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (about 4 ounces)
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- Prepare the steaks: Arrange the steaks in a dish; season with salt and pepper on both sides, sprinkle evenly with the liquid smoke and drizzle with the vegetable oil.
- Nestle the rosemary under the steaks and set aside at room temperature 2 hours, turning the steaks halfway through to infuse both sides with rosemary.
- Make the rosemary butter: In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the butter and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Melt the butter, stirring to dissolve the salt, then add the garlic and rosemary.
- Continue cooking over low heat until the butter is fragrant, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and discard the garlic and rosemary; set the butter aside.
- Grill the steaks: Preheat a grill or grill pan to high.
- Remove the steaks from the dish, discard the rosemary and place the steaks on the grill.
- Cook about 5 minutes per side for medium rare.
- Remove from the grill, tent with foil and let rest 10 minutes before slicing.
- Meanwhile, make the eggs: In a large bowl, vigorously whisk the eggs and add a splash of water (nothing more than a teaspoon).
- Melt the butter in a large nonstick pan over low heat but do not let it brown.
- Add the eggs and cook, whisking to release the cooked egg from the pan, until almost done but still wet, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Remove from the heat; add half of the cheese, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper and continue whisking until done.
- Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.
- To serve, cut the steaks off the bone and slice against the grain; drizzle with the rosemary butter.
- Serve with the eggs.
