BUFFALO BILL JR’S TEX-MEX STEAK TV SERIES BUFFALO BILL by CHEF DAN:

(Besides good old “charred” broiled steaks and rare roast beef, this is my next favorite meat dish)

Makes 4 servings (3 for the hungry ones)

INGREDIENTS:

1 tablespoon chili powder

1/2-teaspoon ground cumin

1/2-teaspoon salt

1/4-teaspoon ground red pepper

1 big top sirloin steak, cut 1/2-inches thick (minimum)

1 15-ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained

1 cup thick salsa (to your taste—I like it hot)  

Fresh cilantro springs for garnish (optional)

DIRECTIONS:

1.   In a small bowl or cup, combine chilie powder, cumin, salt and red pepper.

2.   Trim the fat from the steak and press the seasoning mixture evenly into both sides of the steak.

3.   Let it stand while you preheat the barbecue grill until flames have flamed down and have formed a gray covering ash.

4.   Place the steaks on the grill, 4-inches from the coals.

5.   Grill for 20-25 minutes for rare to medium meat (turning occasionally)

6.   Remove the steaks from the grill and let it stand 10 minutes before carving.

7.   Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the beans and salsa.

8.   Mix until blended.

9.   Slice the steak on the bias, across the grain, and arrange on a preheated serving platter.

10.                Top with salsa mixture and garnish with cilantro springs if desired.

11.                Goes good with garlic-cheese toast and tossed salad.
