Coffee-and-Pepper-Crusted New York Steaks

from Weber’s Art of the Grill

In this unusual recipe, the piquancy of peppercorns meets the mellowness of coffee beans with stellar results. Turn the steaks when you see beads of juice on the surface.

Coarsely grind the coffee beans and peppercorns in a food processor or coffee grinder. Press the mixture evenly on both sides of the steaks.

Spray steaks lightly with oil then grill the steaks over Direct High heat for 8 to 10 minutes, turning once halfway through grilling time, or until desired doneness.

Remove the steaks from the grill. Season both sides with salt. Allow to rest for 2 to 3 minutes before serving.
