METHOD & TIPS:
Heat grill 15 to 25 minutes prior to cooking to kill any bacteria. Temperature should be 350-400*. A properly heated grill sears food on contact, keeps the insides juicy and helps prevent sticking while creating a beautiful carmelization on the steak.
You can also cook your potatoes on the grill for a great smoky flavored potato with a nice outside crisp.
While our steak is cooking toss your salads and pickled veggies together to top the steak once finished (grill steak to preferred temp). Allow your steak to sit separately for a few minutes before plating. This is for all the juices to stay with the meat and not run all over your plate.
Once rested, plate your food and top with the delicious pickled salad you’ve created and enjoy.
