Ingredients

1 (2 1/2 pound) boneless top round steak, or to taste
salt to taste
100% natural hardwood lump charcoal
For the Sauce:
4 cloves garlic
1 Fresno chile pepper
2 teaspoons rosemary leaves
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

1

Season both sides of beef generously with salt. Let sit at room temperature, flipping halfway through, for 30 minutes.
2

Burn a bed of charcoal until coals are glowing red and ashy white on the surface, rearranging coals as needed.
3

Place the beef right on top of the coals. Cook, flipping over halfway, about 4 minutes per side. Continue cooking until the internal temperature of the meat reaches 120 degrees F (49 degrees C) for medium-rare, 1 to 2 minutes more per side. Transfer beef to a plate. Let rest while making the sauce.
4

Place garlic, chile pepper, rosemary, and kosher salt in a mortar. Crush into a paste using a pestle. Stir in vinegar and oil.
5

Slice beef thinly and spoon the sauce on top.
