How to
- Preheat your grill, setting it up for direct cooking with a cast iron plate for searing the steak and an indirect zone for warming.
- Insert a thermometer into the Wagyu steak and place it on the indirect heat zone.
- Slowly smoke the steak until it reaches a core temperature of 48ºC or 118ºF, maintaining the BBQ temperature at 120ºC or 250ºF.
- Once the steak reaches the desired temperature, remove it from the grill and let it rest.
- Spread mayonnaise over the tuna steak.
- Prepare the Furikake BBQ Rub, adding extra chili flakes if desired.
- Sprinkle the rub over the tuna; the mayonnaise will help it adhere.
- Heat up the grill even more.
- Cook the rice, using a Japanese rice pot with water.
- Grill the vegetables until tender on the grilling grate.
- Coat the cast iron plate with sunflower oil once it's extra hot. Sear the tuna steak on all sides, allowing it to rest afterward.
- Apply beef tallow to the cast iron plate.
- Season both sides of the Wagyu steak with Pitmasterx Beef Rub and grill briefly on the cast iron plate.
- Plate by arranging the rice with grilled vegetables. Cut the tuna steak into small cubes and garnish with fresh wasabi.
- Finally, slice the Wagyu steak and place it on the tuna.
- Optionally, top with a raw egg yolk for added richness. Enjoy your Japanese Surf and Turf masterpiece!
