Answers: like what seasonings n stuff how 2 cook em
Many top grilling recipes say to allow the steaks to stand at 20-30 minutes before grilling, and recommend grilling steaks over a direct-medium fire (350°F to 375°F) on a covered grill.
If you need help with grilling times you might want to try the cookout calculator at charcoalbob.com. Enter the details about your grill (gas or charcoal), the cuts of meat, thickness and doneness you want. It will give you instructions for how to grill the steaks just the way you want them. It also has grilling tips.
It's also recommended to let the steaks rest for 5 minutes after grilling to keep them nice and juicy.
Try to stay away from adding seasoning to steak. Top quality meat should be good on their own.
The trick to a good steak is to get the heat right up there - 500 degrees. Once it's hot, sear each side of the steak so that the juices have nowhere to go but stay inside the meat.
A couple minutes on each side should do the trick.
Now turn the heat in the barbecue way down and let the steak cook for a good 10-15 min. depending on the thickness.
Start with a good steak. I think bone-in rib eye's are the best for grilling. Take them out of the fridge an hour before you plan to cook them and sprinkle both sides liberally with salt and freshly ground pepper. I like a good gourmet pepper blend best. Leave them out at room temperature for one hour. Grill over hot coals or a gas grill preheated on high for 2-3 minutes per side for rare to medium rare. Turn them only once. Please do NOT cook these lovely steaks more than medium or they will be tough and dry.
