Bumper to Bumper Rare! Grate Customer in Germany. |
Everyone has their own
definition of a perfect steak. For me it's bumper to
bumper rare to medium rare!

Formula to Grill Steaks like a Champion:
Time to take them off for a brief rest. |
- GrillGrates
- Instant Read Thermometer
- Good Piece of Meat
Preparation:
- Liberally salt steak and allow to sit out of the refrigerator
- Bring steaks to room temperature, as the salt opens the meat and brings the myoglobin to the surface (not blood- see Meathead's review on this subject)
- After 20 minutes, blot the surface of the steak dry removing some of the salt. (Many people suggest oiling steaks- we don't. We oil fish filets for grilling but not steaks.)
- Pepper and season to taste. Go easy on the seasoning. Note if the steak seasoning has salt in it be careful not to over-salt. Most of the time we just use salt and pepper on steaks.
- Continue to bring to room temperature and allow seasoning to penetrate the meat.
Grilling:
- Get your GrillGrates HOT! 500F-650F (not 800F unless you want crunchy sear marks)
- Lay steaks at an angle on the GrillGrates and note your time.
- In TWO minutes LIFT and TWIST 90 degrees to create a cross hatch (do not turn yet)
- In TWO more minutes TURN to reveal nicely seared and diamon marked steak- cook to finish
- Use an Instant read to measure internal temp. Pull steaks 10 degrees lower than target temp. I pull my steaks at 125-130F anticipating them to rise to 135-140F
- REST the steak for 2-3 minutes, (Meathead has debunked the resting period for steaks.) 10 minutes for extra thick steaks (do not tent with foil- as they will cook more and overshoot doneness)
- Serve, Observe and Listen for guttural sounds of gastronomic joy!
