June 2019 - Volume XVII, Issue 6 It’s That Time of Year! Top Tips for Great Grilled Steak Cool Blogs, Sites & Online Resources to Check Out!  Choose the right steak. Rib-eye or Flank, T-bone or Top Round – there’s a choice for every type of grill, fire, budget and taste.  Choose the right seasoning. Use rubs, marinades, sauces, butters, and bastes to add an extra dimension of flavor. Even something as basic as sea salt and cracked black pepper adds a spectacular taste to beef.  Build the right fire. Understand the difference between direct and indirect grilling and when to use each. Every fuel and fire burn differently.  Know when your steak is done. Remember medium rare is 145°F; medium 160° and well done is 170°F. Use an instant-read meat thermometer or the “poke” test to check for doneness. An instant– read thermometer gives you the internal temperature immediately.  Turn, don’t stab. Tongs are the most important tool in the griller’s workshop, enabling you to turn the steak without stabbing it.  Give it a rest. After grilling, give the steak a rest for a couple of minutes to let the juices redistribute before cutting into it. A drizzle of olive oil or a pat of butter gives the steak a handsome sheen and spectacular flavor and finish.
