Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Preparation of the Steak

    Remove the Kobe steak from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature, about 30 minutes before cooking. This ensures even cooking.

  2. 2

    Seasoning

    Pat the steak dry with paper towels. Generously season both sides of the steak with kosher salt and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to high heat (about 450°F to 500°F).

  4. 4

    Grilling the Steak

    Drizzle olive oil over the steak and place it on the grill. Grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until it reaches the desired doneness.

  5. 5

    Adding Flavor

    During the last minute of grilling, add the crushed garlic cloves and rosemary sprig to the grill for additional flavor.

  6. 6

    Resting

    Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute.

  7. 7

    Serving

    Slice against the grain and serve. Enjoy your perfectly grilled Kobe steak!
