- 1 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
- • 3–4 cloves garlic, minced

Directions
GRILL SETUP
- Grill: Kamado Joe
- Temperature: 450°F
- Setup: Indirect heat
- Place your cast iron skillet on the grill while it preheats so the pan warms up with the cooker.
COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
- 1. Prep the Steak
- Apply a light binder if you’d like (mustard or oil works great).
- Season generously with All Y’all SPG on all sides.
- Let the steak sit while the grill and skillet heat up.
- 2. Sear the Steak
- Once the Kamado Joe reaches 450°F indirect, your skillet should be hot and ready.
- Add a little oil or butter to the pan.
- Place the steak in and let it sear.
- Flip every 3 minutes to build an even crust.
- Cook to your preferred doneness (about 125–130°F for medium-rare, 135°F for medium).
- Remove and let rest.
- 3. Cook the Eggs
- In the same skillet, add a small amount of butter or oil if needed.
- Crack in two eggs.
- Cook over easy (or however you like them).
- They’ll soak up that steak flavor in the pan and taste incredible.
- 4. Make the Chimichurri
- In a bowl, combine parsley, garlic, olive oil, red wine vinegar, oregano, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if you like a little heat.
- Stir and let it sit a few minutes so the flavors come together.
- 5. Plate & Enjoy
- Slice the steak.
- Top with the eggs.
- Spoon chimichurri over the top.
- Serve immediately and enjoy a breakfast that feels like a celebration.
