Settle an argument please

When you grill steaks, what temp (approx) do you leave the grill at?

Re: Settle an argument please

  • Oooh, now I want steak on the grill.  I'd say we keep it like med-high.
  • we are grilling filets tonight.

    what I do - pre-heat the grill for a solid 20 minuets if youhave a high btu out put. Longer if your grill isn't so "serious"

    once the grill is piping hot, throw the steaks on and turn down the heat. you essentailly want to seal the exteriors and create a crust. DO NO TOUCH the steaks for 4-5 minues. period - don't move emm, push on emm, just leave em alone!

    then flip - keep heat and medium to medium high depending on teh grill. and for rare no more 3-4 minutes for the other side.

     

    OH and oil the rack.

     

    taa taa

  • Ok, I tend do to med-med high so they sear on the outside like Wysty said.  DH always tells me it's on too high and turns it down so it's at about 350.  IMO that's too low for steaks!!
  • Oh, and we grilled filets tonight, too.  It tasted like summer!!
  • Well in the oven I do mine at 425....so I think you are in the right. the high heat is not a problem with a seared crust because you wont have any flare ups (no fat to drip)

     

    Jess seriously we are forever eating the same things!!!!

  • I knew I was right, just needed some Nestie back up!!

    What's for dinner tomorrow Christy? LOL
