Grilling is the classic way to cook meat outdoors. It only requires the most common of all pieces of BBQ equipment (a grill) and most people will already have had plenty of practice with this technique.
Try to have a two or three heat-zone setup. Blistering hot, hot and warm and move the steak between them depending on how the cook goes.
Be wary of flare-ups, the odd lick of a flame won't hurt the steak, but prolonged contact will burn and result in a bitter flavour.
Whether you judge the doneness of a steak by temperature probe, feel or pure experience, grilling must be the most used technique in the UK.
