Paste

  • Completed step 1 large handful of fresh thyme sprigs (about 36 sprigs)
  • Completed step 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • Completed step 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • Completed step 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • Completed step 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • Completed step ½ teaspoon celery seed
  • Completed step Kosher salt
  • Completed step Freshly ground black pepper
 
  • Completed step 4 boneless rib eye steaks, each 340 to 450 grams and about 2.5 centimetres thick

Special Equipment

  • 2 small handfuls of hickory or mesquite wood chips

Instructions

  • Strip the leaves from the thyme sprigs and reserve the stems for later. Finely chop enough of the leaves to give you 2 tablespoons of chopped thyme. Mix the thyme leaves in a small bowl with the remaining paste ingredients, including 1 teaspoon of salt and ¼ teaspoon of pepper.
  • Brush the paste evenly over both sides of the steaks. Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours.
  • Soak the wood chips in water for at least 30 minutes.
  • Remove the steaks from the refrigerator and season evenly with ½ teaspoon of salt and ¼ teaspoon of pepper. Allow the steaks to stand at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes before grilling.
  • Prepare the grill for direct cooking over high heat (230°C to 290°C).
  • Brush the cooking grate clean. Drain and add the wood chips and thyme stems to the charcoal or to the smoker box of a gas grill, following the manufacturer's instructions, and close the lid. When smoke appears, grill the steaks over direct high heat, with the lid closed, until cooked to your desired doneness, 6 to 8 minutes for medium rare, turning once or twice (if flare-ups occur, move the steaks temporarily over indirect heat). Remove from the grill and let rest for 3 to 5 minutes. Serve warm.
