How to Grill the Perfect Steak






Now that spring is here with summer heading our way, it is the perfect weather to have a barbecue party with your family and friends. Grilling the perfect isn't as difficult as you think. Here's how you can achieve a juicy, grilled steak right from your own grill.


Preparing the meat
First, choose your meat. For grilling, choose a steak that is at least 1 and half inches thick with enough marbling in the meat. This way your steak will turn out tender and juicy. Marbling means the fat in the meat is dispersed throughout the steak evenly which enhances the flavor of the meat. 

Now it's time to trim the meat. Cut off the excess fat while still leaving some for flavor. Removing too much fat will make your steak dry and tough.

Before grilling the meat, make sure it is brought to room temperature. Meanwhile, preheat the grill. The meat should sit outside of the fridge for at least 20 minutes until it reaches room temperature.



Preparing the grill
Set up the grill for direct and indirect heat at least 30 minutes before you start grilling. Make sure you know the hot and cool spots by placing your hand 6 inches above the grill.

Oil the grill. Use tongs and folded paper towel that has been dipped in oi. Let the oil heat until it's smoking on the grate.

Finally, it's time to grill the steak. Pat the meat dry, season with salt and pepper on each side, then place the steaks on the hot part of the grill. Let them sear until they release without sticking onto the grill. When the steak lifts easily from the grill, reposition it about 90 degrees to get the grill marks.

Flip the steak and let it cook. Then give it another quarter turn.

Check the temperature of the meat. Inset a thermometer lengthwise for an accurate reading. 130 to 145 degrees F is between medium-rare and medium. For a well-done steak, move the meat to the cooler part of the grill and let it cook longer. Don't forget to keep in mind that the steak will continue to cook after you remove it from the grill.

Let the steak rest. Before you serve your steak, it should rest for 5 to 10 minutes so that the juices can settle. Skipping this step will cause all the juices to escape from the meat while cutting. After you have given it time to rest, it is ready to be served.
