• For the steak and sausages:
• Heat the grill to high. Brush the steak and sausages with oil and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Grill the steak until golden brown and slightly charred on both sides and cooked to medium-rare doneness, about 4 minutes per side. Grill the sausages until golden brown on both sides and just cooked though, about 15 minutes. Remove the steak and sausages from the grill to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes. Slice and reserve.
• For the eggs:
• Heat a large cast iron pan on top of the grill. Once the pan is hot add the butter and eggs and either fry or scramble. Remove the eggs to a serving platter and top with the chimichurri and sliced sausages. Arrange the steak around the eggs and serve with Garlic Toast.
• For the garlic toast:
• Heat the grill to high. Toast bread on both sides until lightly golden brown, about 20 seconds per side. Remove from grill, rub with the cut side of garlic and drizzle with olive oil.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill.
• Place all chimichurri sauce ingredients in a blender or food processor and pulse until well chopped, but not pureed. Reserve.
• Dissolve cayenne pepper and salt in 1 cup hot water. Transfer to a squeeze container.
• Place the steak directly over a hot grill, baste with the chimichurri grilling sauce, and grill until the outer portion of the meat reaches the desired degree of doneness. Remove the steak from the grill and slice long strips from the outer edges of the steak. Instruct guests to pick up a steak slice from the cutting board with their fingers, place it on a slice of baguette, and enjoy. Return the remaining steak to the grill, baste, and grill until more of the steak is cooked. Remove and repeat the slicing and serving procedure until steak is consumed. For extra spicy steak, baste 2 or 3 additional times with the cayenne pepper mixture during grilling process. Spoon chimichurri sauce over steak. (Also brilliant on any grilled fish or chicken)
