Barbecued Surf Turf Recipes

Steps:

• Heat your barbecue to high. Rub the steak with the oil, then season on both sides and set aside. To make the seaweed butter, blitz the butter with the seaweed and sea salt. Spoon onto some baking parchment and make it into a log shape by rolling it up and twisting the ends. Chill until needed.
• When the coals are ready to cook on direct heat, hold the steak upright on the grill so the strip of fat down the side sizzles and crisps. Once it's nicely browned, lay the steak flat on the grill so the striploin (the larger side) is closer to the flames, and the tenderloin is on the edge of the barbecue - this ensures you cook each side evenly. Cook for 5 mins, then flip the steak over and put it on the other side of the barbecue so the strip loin is again nearest to the flames. Cook for 5 mins more, then cover with a lid and cook for 4 mins further each side for medium rare. Put the steak on a plate, top with a large slice of the butter, cover with foil and leave to rest.
• While the steak rests, cut some slices of seaweed butter and lay them on the flesh side of each lobster half, then put on the barbecue (tails shell-side down). Cook for 5-10 mins, depending on how hot the barbecue is and if the lobster is raw or cooked (see our ultimate guide to lobster if you're preparing it live). Wait until the shells turn orange-red - remove the tails when the meat is no longer translucent, but cook the claws for a few mins longer.
• Serve the T-bone steak on a large board or serving platter, topped with or alongside the lobster tails and claws and more seaweed butter.

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat until melted and foamy. Add the shallots and cook, stirring frequently, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the sugar and peaches and cook, stirring, until the sugar is melted and the peaches are starting to soften, about 3 minutes.
• Stir in the peach preserves, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, red pepper flakes, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook until the peaches are completely softened and the mixture is thickened to the consistency of loose jam, 10 to 15 minutes depending on the juiciness of the peaches. Discard the thyme sprigs. If the peaches have not completely broken down, mash them with a potato masher to help them along. Keep warm over low heat.
• Meanwhile, heat a large grill pan over high heat.
• Thread one piece of corn onto a 15-inch metal skewer, followed by a piece of sirloin and then a piece of shrimp; repeat in that order until you have 4 of each item on the skewer. Repeat with the remaining corn, sirloin and shrimp on 3 additional 15-inch metal skewers. Brush the kebabs with olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt and black pepper.
• Cook the kebabs, turning a few times, until charred all over and the steak and shrimp are cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer the kebabs to a platter and brush generously with the peach sauce. Serve with rice, salad and extra peach sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Whisk 1 tablespoon olive oil, butter, onion, wine, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, parsley, seafood seasoning, garlic, and black pepper together in a bowl; add shrimp. Toss to coat evenly. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for flavors to blend, at least 15 minutes.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Coat steaks with 2 teaspoons olive oil; sprinkle with steak seasoning.
• Cook steaks until they are beginning to firm and have reached your desired doneness, 5 to 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Transfer steaks to a platter and loosely tent with a piece of aluminum foil.
• Remove shrimp from marinade and grill until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is no longer transparent in the center, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

Steps:

• Make the dressing: Puree the vinegar, mustard, garlic, anchovies and 2 tablespoons water in a blender until smooth. With the machine running, gradually add the olive oil and puree until smooth. Season the steak with salt and pepper and coat with ¼ cup of the dressing. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to 8 hours. Refrigerate the remaining dressing until ready to serve.
• Meanwhile, put the potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with water by 1 inch; season with salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until just slightly tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and transfer to a medium bowl.
• Preheat a grill to medium high. Drizzle the potatoes with olive oil and season with salt and pepper; toss. Put the shrimp in a separate bowl; drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Grill the steak until well marked, 5 to 7 minutes per side for medium rare; transfer to a cutting board. Meanwhile, grill the potatoes until well marked, about 3 minutes per side; transfer to a plate. Grill the shrimp until well marked and just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side; remove to the plate.
• Combine the spinach, watercress, frisee and chives on a platter. Drizzle with some of the remaining dressing, season with salt and pepper and toss. Thinly slice the steak. Arrange the shrimp, potatoes and steak in rows over the greens. Drizzle with the remaining dressing.
