Denver Steak

For this recipe, I used high-quality, nutrient-dense, grass-fed Denver steaks from Wanda Farm. Marinating the steak enhances its natural beefy flavor while grilling adds a perfect sear. I use a simple marinade of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and fresh garlic and herbs to add depth and tenderness. Grilling it to a perfect medium-rare ensures that each bite is melt-in-your-mouth good.

Whether you serve it with roasted vegetables, a crisp salad, or baked potatoes, this Denver steak recipe is a winner for any steak lover. Plus, I’ll show you the key steps to getting the best texture and flavor from this nutrient-rich cut!

Step 1: In a shallow dish, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.

Step 2: Place the steaks in the marinade, ensuring both sides are well coated.

Step 3: Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or up to overnight for deeper flavor).

Step 4: Remove the steaks from the refrigerator 45-60 minutes before grilling to allow them to come to room temperature.

Step 5: Preheat the grill (or cast iron pan) to medium-high heat. Grill the steaks for 5-6 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 130°F for medium-rare.

Step 6: Remove from the grill, cover loosely with foil, and let the steaks rest for 7-10 minutes.

Step 7: Slice against the grain and serve. Enjoy!
