After searing, move the steak to a cooler zone of the grill or reduce the heat to indirect heat. This allows the steak to cook through evenly without burning the outside
Once the steak reaches your desired internal temperature, remove it from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
While your steak sears, prepare your baked potatoes. Scrub clean and pierce the skin of your potatoes with a fork a few times. This allows steam to escape during baking.
You can bake your potatoes in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 45-60 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork. Alternatively, wrap the potatoes in foil and place them directly on the grill for a smoky flavor.
While the potatoes bake, prepare your favorite toppings. Classic options include butter, sour cream, chives, and shredded cheese. You can also explore other options like crumbled bacon, chili flakes, or guacamol
Slice your rested steak against the grain for maximum tenderness. Serve alongside your perfectly baked potato loaded with your favorite toppings. Enjoy a delicious and satisfying summer meal that's sure to impress
Don't underestimate the power of a good sear and proper seasoning. Pat your steak dry and season generously with salt and freshly cracked black pepper.
The foundation of a great steak lies in the cut. For beginners, opt for tender cuts like ribeye, New York strip, or filet mignon. Consider factors like fat content, desired level of doneness
A hot grill is crucial for achieving a perfect sear on your steak. Preheat your grill to high heat, aiming for around 450°F (230°C). This ensures a quick sear that locks in juices and creates a flavorful crust
Once the grill is hot, place your seasoned steak directly over the heat. Sear the steak for 2-3 minutes per side for a medium-rare doneness. Adjust the cooking time based on your desired level of doneness
