This is the best steak I have ever eaten! I only changed one thing... I used smoked paprika because I did not have hot hungarian paprika. Will try it with the hungarian kind in the future. This recipe has been added to our family collection of favorite recipes and will be made often!

Excellent taste and flavor. Use regular paprika.
