Equipment

Ingredients

  • 4 steaks 1 1/2" thick, 6-10oz each (ribeye, sirloin, filet mignon)
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) cooking oil
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper

Instructions

  • Remove the steaks from the refrigerator at least 20 minutes before grilled to come up to room temperature.
  • Preheat the grill to high heat (about 400-450 degrees F).
  • Rub the steaks with oil, then season liberally with salt and pepper on both sides.
  • When the grill is hot, place the steaks on the grill and cook for 3 minutes, without touching. Turn the steaks over and continue grilling for 3-5 minutes for medium rare (135 degrees F). Check the internal temperature with a meat thermometer to determine the internal temperature. You want 135°F for medium rare, 140°F for medium, and 150°F for medium-well.
  • Transfer the steaks to a plate. Tent loosely with foil and rest 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • You can use any cut of steak you want. Thickness will determine the total cook time. Always check the internal temperature with a meat thermometer to be sure you hit your desired doneness.
  • You can also season the steaks with a rub, if desired.
