Place the steaks on a plate and season well with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Use more salt than you think you need. I used 1 tsp per steak but it really depends upon the size of the steak. Set aside at room temperature while you prepare the rest of the meal (at least 30 - 45 minutes).

Steak on the menu? Try pairing with Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Pinot Noir. After all, beef and red wine are a classic combination. Generally, leaner steaks go well with light or medium-bodied reds, such as pinot noir or merlot, while fattier steaks can handle a bold red, such as cabernet sauvingnon. The La Jota Howell Mountain Merlot with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 99 dollars per bottle.
