Notes

  1. Start hot. Heat your grill (or cast-iron skillet) to around 500 °F before the steak goes on.
  2. Pat dry. Blot off excess marinade so the surface sears, not steams.
  3. Season. Give each side a quick hit of kosher salt right before grilling.
  4. Oil the grates, not the steak. Swipe a paper towel dipped in oil across the grates to prevent sticking.
  5. Check temp. Pull at 130 °F for medium-rare (or your preferred number).
  6. Rest 5–10 min. Let the juices settle, then slice against the grain and serve.
Grab an instant-read thermometer for fool-proof doneness. Pull the steak off the heat when it’s 3–5 °F below your target; it will finish as it rests.
