GRILLED STEAK SALAD WITH CHILE AND BROWN SUGAR
In this summery beef salad, pieces of grilled, marinated flank steak and charred red onions are tossed with a mound of spicy greens, avocado and a tangy lime-spiked dressing. Keep the flank steak on the rare side - this lean cut is best when still very juicy - then slice it thinly against the grain for the most tender meat.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, whisk together half of the grated garlic (reserve the other half for the dressing), sugar, salt, chile powder, oregano, sesame oil and cumin. Add steak and thoroughly coat it with marinade; marinate for at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
- Heat the grill to medium-high, or heat the broiler. Grill or broil steak and onion slices, about 2 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. If onions aren't charred, give them another minute or two while the steak rests.
- Transfer steak to a plate and let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain (save the juices). Chop onions into bite-sized pieces.
- Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together lime juice, remaining garlic, a large pinch of salt, and oil. Drizzle a little of the juice from the rested steak into dressing.
- Sprinkle avocado with salt. In a large bowl, toss spicy greens, radishes and scallions with just enough dressing to coat it. Gently mix in avocado. Transfer to serving plates and top with the steak and onions.

HOUSE FIRE STEAK AND SUGAR-GRILLED ASPARAGUS
Steps:
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- Cut the cedar shingles down to size, about 10 by 5-inches, large enough for a steak to sit on it as a cooking surface. Spay shingles with water, so shingles are moist but not saturated. Oil the steaks and season with steak seasoning. Place each steak on a moist cedar shingle and place on grill. Close grill and let shingles smoke under steaks. If you don't have a covered grill, use a metal bowl to cover steak. Be careful, bowl will get burning hot. Cook steak until desired temperature and top each with 1 tablespoon Herb Butter. Serve on the cedar shingle with Sugar Grilled Asparagus.
- Mix garlic and herbs into the softened butter. Put in refrigerator for later use.
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
- Cut the tough ends off asparagus, roll in oil and coat with sugar and salt. Place asparagus on the grill and cook for approximately 10 to 15 minutes. Turn asparagus to ensure even cooking. You know the asparagus are done when sugar is caramelized and asparagus are starting to look burnt. Sprinkle orange zest over asparagus before serving.

Steps:
- 1. Mix sugar and salt together in bowl. Pat steaks dry with paper towels, and place in 13- by 9-inch baking dish. Season each steak with 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar mixture on each side. Cover with plastic wrap and let sit at room temperature for 1 hour or refrigerate for up to 24 hours. 2A. FOR A CHARCOAL GRILL: Open bottom vent completely. Light large chimney starter mounded with charcoal briquettes (7 quarts). When top coals are partially covered with ash, pour evenly over half of grill. Set cooking grate in place, cover, and open lid vent completely. Heat grill until hot, about 5 minutes. 2B. FOR A GAS GRILL: Turn all burners to high, cover, and heat grill until hot, about 15 minutes. Turn all burners to medium-high. 3. Clean and oil cooking grate. Transfer steaks to plate. (Steaks will be wet; do not pat dry.) Sprinkle steaks with 1 teaspoon sugar mixture on each side, then season with pepper. 4. Place steaks on hotter side of grill (if using charcoal) and cook (covered if using gas) until evenly charred on first side, 3 to 5 minutes, rotating and switching positions for even cooking. Flip steaks and continue to cook until meat registers 120 to 125 degrees (for medium-rare), 3 to 5 minutes, rotating and switching positions for even cooking. 5. Transfer steaks to wire rack set in rimmed baking sheet and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice and serve. KEYS TO: The Best Sugar Steaks To get the right mix of sweet and savory, follow these steps. 1. Start with thick strip steaks. 2. Sprinkle with sugar and salt mixture, let them rest, and sprinkle again. 3. Watch them carefully and keep the steaks moving on the grill to prevent burning.
Tips:
- Choose the right cut of steak: A flank steak or skirt steak is a good choice for grilled sugar steak, as they are both thin and flavorful cuts of meat. You can also use a hanger steak or a flat iron steak.
- Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak in a mixture of soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger will help to tenderize the meat and add flavor.
- Grill the steak over high heat: This will help to caramelize the sugar and create a delicious crust on the steak.
- Let the steak rest before slicing: This will help to keep the juices in the steak and prevent it from becoming dry.
- Serve the steak with your favorite sides: Grilled sugar steak can be served with a variety of sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
