Grilling Guide
How to grill the perfect steak
Bring the steak to Room Temp
Take thawed meat from the refrigerator and let rest at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
Start your Grill
Pre-heat your Grill: Sear over high heat EACH SIDE for 1 minute with lid closed. Then transfer steak to indirect heat OR reduce heat to low. Close lid and cook according to the times and temperatures below. Steaks will continue to rise in temperature 5 to 10 degrees while at rest after grilling.
GRILLING TIMES
Times are organized by thickness and temperature for easy grilling. Grill times are suggested guidelines only, actual times may vary depending upon your grill type and temperature.
GIVE IT A REST
Always let steaks rest 5 minutes before slicing.
