If you love bold flavor and quick cooking, these Easy Blackstone Garlic Butter Steak Bites will instantly become a favorite. They cook in just a few minutes, yet every bite delivers rich garlic-butter goodness and a perfectly seared crust. Even better, they’re simple enough for a busy weeknight dinner while still impressive enough for guests. Because they’re cooked on a Blackstone, the high heat creates restaurant-quality browning without any hassle. Serve them as a main dish, appetizer, or even tucked into tacos. No matter how you enjoy them, they’re tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Heat the Blackstone Grill

Begin by preheating your Blackstone to high heat, around 450°F. Once it’s hot, drizzle avocado oil across the surface and spread it with a spatula. This helps the steak sear quickly and evenly.

2. Add the Steak Bites

Next, place the bite-sized sirloin pieces onto the hot surface in a single layer. Avoid crowding the grill because spacing allows the steak to brown instead of steam. Season with salt and pepper immediately.

3. Sear the Steak

Let the steak cook undisturbed for about two minutes. This creates a golden crust on the bottom, which adds rich flavor.

4. Toss and Continue Cooking

After a crust forms, flip and toss the steak bites. Continue cooking for another two to three minutes, tossing occasionally. Stop cooking once the steak reaches your preferred doneness.

5. Add Garlic Butter

Reduce the heat to medium, then add butter and minced garlic directly over the steak. Stir for 30–60 seconds, just until the garlic becomes fragrant and the butter coats every piece.

6. Serve Immediately

Remove the steak bites from the grill to avoid overcooking. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve warm.

Tips for Best Results

• Preheat Fully: A hot Blackstone gives the steak the perfect crust.
• Cut Evenly: Uniform 1-inch pieces ensure even cooking from edge to center.
• Work in Batches: If needed, cook in two rounds so the grill stays hot.
• Use Real Butter: Butter adds richness that oil alone can’t match.
• Add Flavor Twists: Try rosemary, thyme, or a pinch of red pepper flakes.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can I use a different cut of steak?

Yes, you can. Ribeye, New York strip, and flat iron all cook beautifully and offer great tenderness.

2. Do I have to use avocado oil?

No. Any high-smoke-point oil works well, such as canola, grapeseed, or sunflower oil.

3. How do I know when the steak is done?

Use a meat thermometer. Aim for 135°F for medium-rare or 140°F for medium. Because the bites cook fast, check often.

4. Can I make this recipe indoors?

Absolutely. A cast-iron skillet heated to high works almost the same as a Blackstone.

5. What sides go best with steak bites?

They’re delicious with roasted veggies, mashed potatoes, rice, salads, grilled corn, or garlic bread.
