We're celebrating all the dads we know and love this Father's Day with a delicious Oyster Bed Surf and Turf dinner of Shrimp Scampi and rosemary-garlic rubbed, Bone-In Rib Eye. I know your dad will go crazy for my buttery Shrimp Scampi cooked in The Oyster Bed Le Grande and succulent Rib Eye cooked on the Steak Bed.
For the Steaks:
Rub 2 large rib eye steaks generously with a mixture of 4 tablespoons fresh minced garlic, 2 tablespoons chopped rosemary, 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, and 2 tablespoons, The Jelly Queens Rosemary Salt. You can substitute kosher or sea salt. The recipe is good for two, 1 inch thick bone-in Rib Eyes.
Place the Steak Bed Tray on the top rack of the grill to heat while searing the steaks. On a preheated, 400 degree grill, sear first side of the steak for 4 minutes, turn and sear the other side for 3-4 minutes then finish cooking on the top rack of the grill on the Steak Bed Tray. Cook until meat thermometer reads 130 - 140 degrees for a perfect medium rare steak. I pile both steaks on top of each other so the top one is cooked rare and the bottom steak is cooked medium rare and while the steaks are cooking, there is room for the scampi to cook on the bottom rack.
