The key to this one, folks, is timing. To cook the perfect steak, you need to know at least a night in advance. If it’s short notice—don’t worry! You can still cook an awesome steak. I’ve learned everything about grilling from my dad.
For me, some of the best meals are the ones that you don’t directly follow the recipe. So when you see me posting, feel free to improvise and make it your own, that’s what makes cooking fun! Here’s my knowledge on making an awesome steak. I’m not going over the “how long you put it on the grill” type stuff. I’m talking about what really makes the meal.
These Three Tips Will Put You In Steak-Grilling Heaven:
1. Marinate, Marinate, Marinate!
People tend to underestimate this one, saying that it’s not always necessary. Trust me, even if you’re four hours away from grillin’ time, marinate that steak! It also depends on the cut of the steak—the nicer cuts don’t usually need marinades. I’m talking filet mignon and sometime even ribeyes (I usually throw something on just about every cut, though).
From my personal experience, we’ve tended to use dry marinades about four-five hours before the steak goes into the grill. Again, this depends on the type of steak, but I digress. It’s not so formal in my house—what we do is just throw the steaks on a cutting board, sprinkle a bunch of Lantana (a southern seasoning) and garlic powder across both sides of the meat. Put some plastic wrap on top, let ‘er sit, then throw it on the grill!
I know I said to marinade, but this doesn’t mean go crazy. Keep the flavors subtle, don’t add too much and overpower the taste on a delicious cut of meat. The goal here is to savor the meat, so make it something to savor!
That being said, all that’s left is to throw ‘er on that Fire Magic Grill, and let her simmer. Generally, you want the temp to be at about 145 degrees; my favorite cooked steak is the Medium. Not too red, not too brown. Perfecto!
3. Accessorize
Again, a very underestimated culinary tool is the sides which go with the meat. You want something that’s going to accentuate and enhance the flavor of the meat, while adding a little color to the plate. There are so many options in this category too, that’s what I love about cooking!
Corn, potatoes, asparagus, tomatoes, zucchini, you name it, we can grill it! It’s even more fun if you get or make some sort of sauce to put on top, I love balsamic vinaigrette. That being said, what is the perfect vegetable to serve with a steak? Again, possibilities are endless! Here’s vegetables that go great with most kinds of beef.
