EASY EYE OF ROUND STEAK RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Place a 10-to-12-inch cast-iron skillet in the oven and heat the oven to 500 degrees F. Bring the steak to room temperature.
• When the oven reaches temperature, remove the skillet and place on the range over high heat for 5 minutes. Coat the steak lightly with oil and sprinkle both sides with a generous pinch of salt. Grind on black pepper.
• Immediately place the steak in the middle of the hot, dry skillet. Cook 30 seconds without moving. Turn with tongs and cook another 30 seconds, then put the pan straight into the oven for 2 minutes. Flip the steak and cook for another 2 minutes. (This time is for medium-rare steak. If you prefer medium, add a minute to both of the oven turns.)
• Remove the steak from the skillet, cover loosely with foil and rest for 2 minutes. Serve whole or slice thin and fan onto plate.

Steps:

• Trim the eye of round to remove surface fat and silverskin.
• Apply a thin coat of yellow mustard all over the beef.
• Combine the dry rub ingredients and mix well.
• Liberally season the eye of round with the dry rub on all sides.
• Let the rub melt into the beef for at least 30 minutes.
• Set your smoker to 225F using hickory.
• Smoke the beef for about 90 minutes or until the rub has set into a crust.
• Combine the Beef Baste ingredients and mix well.
• Baste (or spray) the eye of round with the Beef Baste every 10-15 minutes.
• Continue smoking the beef until it reaches an internal temperature of 130-135F. Total cook time will be around 2 hours.
• Remove the meat from the smoker and slice thinly across the grain.
