Helpful Tips and Tricks
The three most important tips to achieve perfect tender steak are these:
- Let the steak sit on the counter for at least 20 minutes. This will let the temperature go up and the steaks won’t be cold when they heat the griddle. This will help them to cook evenly.
- Let the steak rest after removing from the grill 5-8 minutes is good time. Resting the steaks will help the juices of the meat to stay in the meat and won’t run all over the cutting board leaving a dry steak.
- Cut the steak against the grain. Cutting against the grain means to cut through the fibers and make them shorter. This makes the meat more tender and easier to chew. (Wikipedia)
