- 1 tsp brown sugar (balances the bitterness of the coffee)
- 1/2 tsp salt (adjust to taste)
- 1/2 tsp black pepper (freshly ground works best)
- 1 lb sirloin steak (about 1 inch thick, for even cooking)
- 1 tbsp olive oil (or any neutral oil)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix together the ground coffee, smoked paprika, garlic powder, brown sugar, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
- Pat the sirloin steak dry with paper towels to ensure the rub sticks well.
- Generously coat both sides of the steak with the coffee rub, pressing gently to adhere.
- Heat olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 2 minutes.
- Place the steak in the skillet and cook for 4 minutes on the first side without moving it to get a good sear.
- Flip the steak and cook for another 3-4 minutes for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired doneness (135°F for medium-rare on a meat thermometer).
- Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing against the grain.
How this steak turns out is nothing short of magical—the coffee rub creates a crust that’s packed with flavor, while the inside stays juicy and tender. Serve it sliced over a bed of arugula with a drizzle of balsamic glaze for a meal that’s as beautiful as it is delicious.
Pineapple Glazed Sizzle Steak

Finally, a steak recipe that brings a tropical twist to your dinner table! I stumbled upon this Pineapple Glazed Sizzle Steak during a summer BBQ at a friend’s place, and it was love at first bite. The sweet and tangy glaze perfectly complements the savory steak, making it a hit every time I serve it.
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs sirloin steak (about 1 inch thick for even cooking)
- 1 cup pineapple juice (fresh is best, but bottled works too)
- 1/4 cup soy sauce (low sodium preferred to control saltiness)
- 2 tbsp brown sugar (packed, for a richer glaze)
- 1 tbsp olive oil (or any neutral oil for searing)
- 2 garlic cloves, minced (fresh garlic adds the best flavor)
- 1 tsp ginger, grated (a little goes a long way for warmth)
- 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (adjust to taste for heat)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and red pepper flakes to create the marinade.
- Place the steak in a resealable bag or shallow dish, pour the marinade over it, ensuring it’s fully coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for deeper flavor.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 2 minutes. Remove steak from marinade, letting excess drip off, and reserve the marinade.
- Sear the steak for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy: 135°F for medium-rare, 145°F for medium.
- Transfer steak to a plate, tent with foil, and let rest for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, pour reserved marinade into the skillet and simmer over medium heat until thickened, about 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Slice the steak against the grain, drizzle with the reduced glaze, and serve immediately.
You’ll adore the caramelized crust on the steak, paired with the glossy, flavorful glaze. Try serving it over a bed of coconut rice to round out the tropical theme, or alongside grilled pineapple rings for an extra sweet touch.
