Pre-Grilling Meat Prep

1. Place one steak on wood chopping block, slab or other hard surface and pound four or five times on each side with the bumpy side of the meat tenderizer. Repeat for all steaks.

2. For dry-rub method, rub seasonings into each side of the stakes. Place the meat into a food storage bag or large bowl, and seal the container. For the marinade method, place steaks and 2 cups marinade per steak in plastic bag or bowl and seal.

3. Place seasoned or marinating steaks in refrigerator at least three hours so flavors soak into the meat.

Grilling the Steaks

1. Spray the cooking grate with vegetable oil grilling spray. This lubricates the grill to prevent excessive sticking and leaves nice grill marks on the meat.

2. Set up the gas grill for direct grilling by lighting all burners to medium heat and closing the lid for preheating.

3. Grill to taste, cooking about six minutes on each side for medium-rare or 10 to 12 minutes for well done.
