Grilling the Perfect Steak: A Simple Guide

Grilling a steak to perfection is an art that anyone can master, even a 4-year-old (with adult supervision, of course). Follow these easy steps to create a mouthwatering steak that will impress everyone at your next barbecue.

Ingredients You'll Need

A thick steak (such as ribeye or New York strip)
Salt
Pepper
Olive oil
Your favorite steak seasoning (optional)

Step 1: Preparing the Steak

Take the steak out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes. This ensures even cooking.

Step 2: Seasoning

Rub the steak with olive oil, then sprinkle generously with salt, pepper, and your chosen seasoning. Pat it in to make sure it sticks.

Step 3: Grilling

Preheat the grill to high heat. Place the steak on the grill and sear for 2-3 minutes per side to create those beautiful grill marks.

Step 4: Cooking to Perfection

Reduce the heat to medium and continue grilling, turning occasionally, until your steak reaches your desired level of doneness (use a meat thermometer for precision).

Remember, rare is about 125°F (51°C), medium-rare is 135°F (57°C), and well-done is 160°F (71°C).
Now, with these simple steps, you'll grill a perfect steak that will make everyone's taste buds dance with joy! Enjoy your culinary masterpiece.
