The primary flavor profile revolves around the rich, savory taste of high-quality beef, enhanced by smoky char and subtle woody notes from the wood-fired cooking process. Seasoning is typically simple, allowing the meat's natural flavors to shine.
Expect a deeply savory, umami-rich flavor with prominent beef notes. The wood-firing imparts a smoky char on the exterior, contrasting with the juicy, tender interior. Common wood types like oak or hickory contribute subtle nuances of flavor. Simple seasoning such as salt, pepper, and sometimes garlic or herbs complement the beef without overpowering it. Specific cuts like Filet Mignon offer a buttery texture and mild flavor, while Ribeye delivers a richer, more marbled taste, and New York Strip provides a balance of flavor and texture.

Choosing Doneness
Communicate your preferred level of doneness clearly (rare, medium-rare, medium, etc.) as wood-fired cooking can result in a quick sear. Aim for a doneness that allows the steak to remain tender and juicy.
Pairing with Sides
Classic steakhouse sides like mashed potatoes, creamed spinach, asparagus, or roasted vegetables provide a balanced complement to the richness of the steak.
Wine Pairing
Bold red wines such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, or Zinfandel typically pair well with wood-fired steaks. The tannins in the wine cut through the richness of the meat, creating a harmonious flavor experience.
Letting the Steak Rest
Allow the steak to rest for 5-10 minutes after cooking. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
