Grill Tips:

Always pull out steaks from refrigeration 15–20 minutes before you grill. This allows the protein to come to room temp which will cook more evenly.

Season steaks with salt before & after grilling to ensure the steak is perfectly seasoned and tender! Pre salting your steak draws out moisture out of the steak during the grilling process, which then creates this savory brine which will be reabsorbed back into the steak. This breaks down lean stands of protein in the steak, making it more tender and juicier!
