Description

A flavorful duo of perfectly cooked Blackstone steak paired with crispy smashed potatoes, bringing families together over bold flavors.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ pounds petite redskin or Yukon Gold potatoes
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly cracked black pepper
  • 5 tablespoons melted butter
  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs (thyme, rosemary, dill)
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 5 to 6 cloves garlic (finely minced)
  • 4 steaks of choice (ribeye, sirloin, or flank steak – about 1 inch thick)
  • Cooking oil (avocado or olive oil)

Instructions

  1. Prep the potatoes: Rinse your potatoes and place them in a large pot. Fill it with cold water—just enough to cover them—and add a generous pinch of kosher salt. Bring the pot to a boil over high heat and cook until the potatoes are fork-tender (about 15-20 minutes).
  2. Drain and smash: Once cooked, drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly. Place each potato on a cutting board and gently smash them until they’re about 1 inch thick.
  3. Make the herb butter: In a small bowl, mix melted butter, chopped herbs, minced garlic, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  4. Preheat the Blackstone: Heat your Blackstone griddle over medium-high heat until hot. Drizzle a thin layer of cooking oil.
  5. Sear the steaks: Season your steaks with salt and pepper. Add the steaks to your griddle and cook for 4-6 minutes per side, flipping only once.
  6. Add the potatoes: Once you flip the steaks, arrange the smashed potatoes on the griddle. Brush half of your herb butter over them as you cook.
  7. Serve it up: When your steaks are done, remove them from the heat and let them rest for about 5 minutes.
  8. Time to dig in: Plate your steaks with crispy smashed potatoes and drizzle remaining herb butter on top.

Notes

For flavor variations, try different cuts of meat, flavored butters, or fresh herbs.
