Flat Iron Steaks are cut from the Chuck (shoulder) area of the cow and are perfect for fast grilling over hot coals.
First I use a marinade to impart some flavor into the meat. Balsamic Vinegar enhances the flavor of beef and I’m pairing it with a little soy sauce, garlic, shallot and a little brown sugar to balance it out.
Flat Iron Steak Balsamic Marinade:
¼ cup Balsamic Vinegar
¼ cup Soy Sauce
¼ cup Olive Oil
2 Tablespoons Shallot finely chopped
1 Tablespoon Brown Sugar
1 Tablespoon Garlic minced
½ teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes
½ teaspoon Salt
½ teaspoon Black Pepper
Combine the balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar, shallot, garlic, red pepper, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Whisk in the Olive Oil and use as a marinade for beef.
The steak needs to marinate for 4 hours, just drop it into a ziplock bag and pour the marinade over. Squeeze the air out and place the bag in the refrigerator.
Today I’m firing up my Kong Grill to sear this steak. The cook is fast and you need a hot bed of coals. Of course you can use any grill you want but I do recommend a set of grill grates because they help regulate the high temperature and reduce flare-ups (plus they give steaks a professional look).
Take the flat iron out of the marinade and let it come up to room temperature for about 15 minutes. Once the grill gets up to 500⁰, it’s time to cook. Place the flat iron on the grill grates and set a timer for 3 minutes. When it goes off, turn the steak 45⁰ (don’t flip). Give it another 3 minutes then flip to opposite side and repeat.
The target internal temperature for me is 125⁰; it will be a perfect medium rare at this temp. The total cook time is about 12 minutes and I use my thermapen to verify the internal temp. All it needs now is a short rest 5-10 minutes will do the trick. At this point I also top it with a compound butter. I mix crumbled blue cheese with softened butter to create a delicious topping for this flat iron.
Creamy Blue Cheese Butter:
1 stick Butter softened
2oz Blue Cheese crumbles
1 Tablespoon Shallot finely chopped
½ Tablespoon Garlic minced
1 teaspoon Killer Hogs Steak Rub
In a small bowl combine butter, blue cheese, shallot, garlic, and steak seasoning. Mix until smooth and use as topping for steaks. Can be stored covered in refrigerator for 1 week.
When serving the flat iron, be sure to slice across the grain. Serve it along with grilled vegetables or your favorite potato and enjoy!

The flat iron is, hands down, one of my favorite cuts of beef. Love using it for fajitas especially.
Your beef recipes are your best. You really understand the flavors to enhance beef. No wonder you've done so well in steak cook offs. Nice job as always. Gonna be doing this recipe for sure.
My mom told me never to trust a skinny cook...dude, I be trusting you, and love this recipe, and can't wait to try it!
I just made this yesterday, and it was phenomenal! Never tried grilling a flat iron, so what a great way to break it in. Thanks, man!
Best grilling videos on TH-cam. Thank you for what you do.
This looks great! I probably would've put the butter/blue cheese on the steak after that final turn just to give it some heat to melt. I'm stealing this one for sure.
yeah - that will help it melt down really nicely.
i was thinking the same thing,or maybe taking a blowtorch to the cheese while the steak is resting so itll melt,since putting it under a broiler would cook the steak too long
HowToBBQRight amazing... Followed your roast beef with au jus today. Came out great. Thank you
just wanted to say "thanks to you i now eat good home made steaks"
before i cook anything i always check ur channel forst.
you are the best.
Had my first flat iron steak yesterday, could not believe the taste of it. Will try to cook it myself this coming weekend. Thank you for the instructions.
one of the most underrated cuts of steak. It looks good Malcom...Love flat iron...
Malcolm...You turned me into a kitchen hero. Not that I was really hurting before, but the difference between Chump and Champ is a thin line.
Wife went to buy flank steak for our steak tacos that we make, accidentally bought flat iron steak. Found this recipe and gave it a shot. Followed it exactly and it turned out great! Way better than I expected. I will make this recipe again!
Great cut of meat. I haven't seen them much lately and I miss them!
Awesome videos, you are the John Madden of BBQ videos.
What a great recipe. Balsamic marinade *and* blue cheese? Yea buddy! Thanks Malcom!
Quick follow up after the Daytona 500 a few weeks ago. This steak and recipe made the post-race tailgate party rock the house in parking lot 7. My hats off to you sir! Truly a great, and reasonably priced recipe! My next race will be in November from Homestead and I'll send you some pictures then!
Thats either a very sharp nice knife, or some very tender steak. Either or is awesome!
Good stuff. Flat iron steak is one of my family's favorite things that I grill. I grill until the thick center portion is medium rare...makes the ends a nice medium so there's something for everyone. I cut into slices and serve over a bed of linguini pasta.
I don't speak southern. What cut of beef is a "flat iron" steak. It looks to me like a London Broil, but I can't be sure from the video.
For the non cosmopolitans, It is indeed a cut of steak recently becoming popular. Its cut from the shoulder. It called the oyster blade in Australia and Butler's steak in the UK. Other parts of America its also called Flat iron in Texas and Ohio.
Thanks Malcolm! I was looking for skirt steak for fajitas and local grocery store was out. Going to try this. Might not go back to skirt steak!!
You are a wonderful instructor!! Very easy to follow along with! Steak looks amazing!
Made this last night for the family, best flat steaks we’ve ever had. Started with a beautiful beef chuck blade roast a local butcher cut for me. Sea salt and pepper for about 30 min before adding the marinade. Let it sit in the frig for about 6 hrs before hitting the Primo XL. Used 2x the cheese (Gorgonzola) and ghee instead of butter. Spread that on after the last flip. Tabled and smothered with sautéd mushrooms. All I can say is WOW. Thanks Malcom! Keep ‘em coming.
Flat Iron is my favourite steak. Cheap, Good flavour, Versatile and easy to cook.
These grill marks were incredible! Those are some great flavor combos coming together for sure.
That butter looks outrageous!
Hey Malcom, just love you're recipes and videos, you've made me a BBQ superstar in my circle of friends.
Thank you!
I was wondering if you ever do Maui ribs? If so could you share a recipe?
Thanks,
Keep it up man
Killer steak Malcom! Going to have to try this soon on the Kong!
Grilla Grills please God start shipping to Canada
Grilla Grills your grill's look awesome
I am going to cook this again tomorrow. We loved it and that blue cheese butter is great too!
Just tried this recipe. It was phenomenal. I'd like to do this to a tri tip or even a huge ribeye or porterhouse
Dude, i'm gonna do this Saturday in front of our butcher shop!!
I'll bet our customers will love all the good flavours!
Great job, subbed :)
grtz from Holland
Wow, I have not seen one of your videos in a while. Your production value has really increased. Great job, and that flat iron looks delicious too.
Like the new back drop on the video. What a great cooking arsenal you have.
That's a nicely cooked flat iron.The Grill Grates definitely work good on steaks an 1" or so or less.
Thanks for helping out so many with your video's! You are amazing Brother!!
Man you look like ya know what cha doin! Can't wait till the weather warms up so I can get busy with your take on the Flatiron. Right on!
Thank you , I’m gonna try it for dinner tonight
Malcolm, I got one thing to say....
Sharpe knife for the win, bro
NICE!
Mac
Nice job Malcolm! Always enjoy your videos!
New house? That's a great view overlooking the lake!
OMG that looks delicious. I'm really interested in a kong grill over the green egg.
You know your Geometry. Perfect diamond marks!
I like the format change
Nice! One thing, the flat iron does not come from a chuck roast. Flat iron comes from the Shoulder Clod. A chuck roast comes from the Chuck Roll. Two separate sub primals. All of which comes from the Chuck primal.
that looks delicious. you could make a fortune if you came over here, NewZealand, and opened a bbq resteraunt.
I did a couple of these on my BGE last night. Knocked it out of the park.
Watching this video while at work on my lunch break wasn't a good idea! My left overs just turned to crap! Lol. Good video Malcom. That's is for sharing.
looks very good man. I love cooking flat iron steaks too
Looks amazing Malcom. I look forward to grilling this one up. Love the new setting on the deck too
Nice one Malcolm, looks so tender.
perfect, I must try that butter mix.
I love this channel.
Malcom would you ever cook a "blue" temp steak?
Great video ! Thanks for sharing ! Love the new pad also !! Great view from your porch !
Awesome as always Malcolm!
Looks amazing Malcom! Cant wait to try it!
Love the new setting
PERFECT GRILL MARKS
Man this looks great Malcom. I'm waiting for you to burn or engrave the Killer Hog emblem in that cutting board you always use.
Nice BBQ steak there I'ma try it this weekend. New scenery for prep and cook looks good man.👍
I can't wait to try this one since my husband loves blue cheese. I'm getting ready to make homemade bacon, can you do a video on other homemade bacon recipes using a pellet smoker? I like your new set up too btw...and video quality is great!
Spectacular...well done.
New house? Like the porch area!
That meat would make a hell of a sandwich. No veggies no sauce just the meat and a tiny bit more of the blue butter on a roll.
061hitta I like the way you think
061hitta you spelled sandwich wrong. It's more like samich
I love all your videos!!!
looks amazing! I always look forward to your videos
Awesome Job, a work of art for sure.
I love flat iron steak. I just wish it hadn't gotten so expensive.
Thermapen™s are just the best. Even at $100 apiece, I own 2 of them and gave another to my son for his birthday. An essential tool for smoking.
Great video....Thank you. Keep them Coming...
big fan of your videos! they have helped me so much to learn how to cook all different meats and make them taste amazing :) what cut of meat did you use for this steak? I can't quite make it out in the video.
Great video!
Been watching your show for a while. Finally subscribed as I had to because Ive been doing a lot of slow cooking and smoking on my grill lately. Perhaps a request.... do you have any recipes that use beer?
wow nice veranda great receipe
hi Malcom, I'm from Aprilia in the south of Rome, Italy! I want to learn how to bbq right! but only watching ur video I gained weight! I love ur recipes! ♡ but anyway I'm just a beginner xD I still have 2 buy a bbq, (I wish a gas-bbq of course). can u suggest me a very good one...? thanks a lot Malcom, greet me in a video! CIAO!!
🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭😁😁😁😁😁
amazing cooking keep it up
Did u buy a new house looks like a bigger porch lol
Rich's River Smokers West Virginia im dead 😂😧😹💀
Hey Malcom! It was nice running into you guys in Tupelo. Sorry I couldn't hang out longer. Steak looks great. Thanks for sharing. Take care!
Cheers mate! You've got a great channel! Peace!
Malcom, what gloves do you use ? Also, I don't care for a lot of spicey heat. To me it takes away from the meat flavor. How hot are your spice rubs? Currntly i have about 7 rubs that are too hot. I love your videos, keep them comin'.
Looks awesome Thanks
That looks awesome BUT I can't stomach blue cheese, is there something else that would be just as good?
Great job!!!!
Dang it man, change of plans. Stickin chickin in the freezer. Looking like a steak weekend.
Where do you get your gloves? I can't find anything like them in my city. Thanks for the video, you taught me how to grill a good steak in a prior video and my in laws have me cook them steak often.
I use white cotton "hand savers" underneath black nitrile gloves. Because the nitrile gloves are disposable, makes cleanup really easy. h2qshop.com/collections/barbecue-equipment/products/killer-hogs-hand-savers-glove-liner
This looks amazing
That looks great! I am going to try this out. Wish I could eat the Blue Cheese. Bot! I would love to be your neighbor, ha!
Malcolm, love the vid. Where did you get the gloves with the liner inside?
looks very good , Malcom how thick was the steak ? At 8 minutes each side would that make a medium well ? some that I would cook for want a medium well !
Nice to see you're using a GRILLA!
it looks so good!!!!!!
Can you use the Weber kettle grill and there grill greats? I am a huge fan of your cooking and skills!!! Keep up the great job!!!
+Norberto De Hoyos Jr oh yeah you don't have to use the grillgrates. Any type grill will work.
Thanks!!!
Looks good.
Damn that looks good malcom !
looks amazing...I like mine a tad more done!
Out of curiosity, why do black people like their steaks well done? I've worked in the restaurant business for 5 years, and without fail every black family I've served always asked for the steak to be well done. Is it a cultural thing?
Falangist not thos black guy nor my dad med rare for us
Falangist not true my friend, my wife and I wouldn't eat a steak well done... Med for us every time.
Freedom Fighter Brandon Harris yea mines to but presentation and everything else was awesome great vid..
for me too they look good specially with those grill mark but can't eat it that rare..but awesome video and steak
Hey Malcolm love the videos... Have you ever grilled Pork steaks ( Sliced Boston butt)?
Is there any stores in Alabama that sells your products such as seasonings and BBQ sauce?
What type of UDS is that on the background? Great job on the steak, can't wait to try it. Keep them videos coming. 👌🏼
That is a Gateway Drum UDS
Another great video! Are you in a different house?
awesome cook - where did you get the grill insert? Also would fit on a large egg?
any chance you could turn on captions please and thank you
Omg that looks good
Do you let the steak get to room temp after marinating it in the fridge for 4 hours?
I did let it sit out for about 15 min to come up
