Is grilling a steak better than broiling it?
I'm cooking steak this weekend and I need to know a couple of things.
1 Is grilling a steak better than broiling it?
2 Does broiling a steak hold more flavor than grilling it?
3 Is grilling a steak healthier than broiling?
4 What are some good sides to serve with steak?
5 How long do you usually grill a steak?
6 How long do you usually broil a steak?
7 What is the best marinate to use on steak?
Answers: The grill is totally better! We grill them for a few minutes each side and let it sit a minute before cutting...it stays juicier for some reason! (We like ours mid-rare.) As far as a marinate...we use seasoning that has garlic, onion, pepper, salt and a couple of other things in it and it is just perfect! You can also try putting it in Italian dressing for about an hour or so before grilling...my mouth is watering! Sides that we like to have are mac and cheese (preferably home made), baked potatoes, twice baked potatoes, green beans, corn on the cob and salad, to name a few Grilling is better.
Heat grill until it is about 450 or smoking hot.
For a steak about 1 inch thich cook 4 minutes a side for medium rare.
Enjoy I good steak only needs salt and pepper and a little olive oil on the grill I like the best on med. about 3 min. per side and you can do a baked potato and corn on the cob. Corn is in season right know you get the same result, only with grilling if you use wood chips you add flavor I personally do not like broiling, I think it has less flavor, good sides, baked beans, baked potatoes, grilled veggies and fruit, and the time to grill a steak depends on how well done you would want each one...how thick each one is, and I marinate my steaks with a garlic herb sprinkle, Italian dressing, and a dollop of butter.... 1. yeah.....boiling the steak takes all the juice out of the steak.
2.nope.It does not hold more flavor then grillng it.
3.no....or kinda.Boiling the steak is healthier then grilling the steak.
4.corn..?, and bushes beans,and salad.
5.If you want it just rare don't grill it.If you want it medium rare grill it about 9 minutes.
6.I think 12 min.
7.do you mean sauce or the flavor on the steak ???? Well here are some good tips. sauce: Tabasco hot sauce,A-1sauce,and texas hot sauce,and the flavor: Marinate it with : a little "extra virgin olive oil",pinch of salt,two pinches of pepper,and a little bit of the A-1 sauce before you grill it. I am a fool for potato salad with steak ...there are so many kinds, but for fun I like the one with just mayo with a little milk mixed in, and some red onion two ways: cut in half crosswise then slice thin in the other direction (for color), and chopped fine (for taste) ... some fresh black pepper,
and a handful of 'fines herbes': chop fine parsley, chervil, chives and tarragon (you can use dry tarragon) ...
and another side would be corn on the cob ... wrap each cob in a layer of aluminum foil lined with parchment ... brush with oil or butter and some s&p..
