Why Can't I Grill A Decent Steak?
Grilled steaks last night, they came out ok but not great. Good cuts of meat but they weren't juicy like a restaurant. I only turned them once, used high heat. I like them medium rate.
I have 2 grills, gas and infra red, just can't seem to get the perfect streak.
Anyone have any tips?

Long story short, the math behind this idea isn't there. It takes a lot longer than 20 minutes to bring meat to room temp, plus when dealing with grill surfaces, the difference in temperature is negligible.

From the second website:
That is a well and good, But I have cooked an average of 150 steaks a week for the last 20 years professionally.
Bringing them to room temp works for me and I will keep doing it.

1) The point of resting it after salting isn't necessarily to bring it to room temp. Although, if you leave it out long enough, the more even cooking is there. They just aren't leaving them out long enough in their tests.

2) It's also why you need to leave the steaks out longer, use more salt, and then rinse the salt off and dry them when searing. It seasons the steak better, and drying them removes the moisture that prevents a great sear.

1) Let the steaks come to room temperature.
2) Season with Kosher Salt and Black Pepper (optional on the pepper)
3) Let the steaks sit with the seasoning for 20 minutes
4) Pat the steaks dry with a paper towel (this is critical to getting a good crust on the steak
5) Make sure your fire is very hot and cook to desired doneness. I recommend an instant read thermometer (125 for medium rare)
6) let the steaks rest 10-20 minutes based on size.

Enjoy

Thanks!

I cooked my t-bone rare last night. Thin crust on outside and very little cooked the rest. It was melting in my mouth.

I'm not huge into rubs for steaks, especially good ones, but try this sometime. It's really very good - it seems to boost beefiness/umami more than actually flavor the steak.

"Grilling spice mix" from Modernist Cuisine

10g sweep paprika
10g porcini powder
10g honey powder
5g onion powder
5g smoked salt
1g ground black pepper

I know the porcini powder is very high in glutamates, which makes beef taste beefier (much like mushrooms, tomatoes, worcestershire sauce, and sardines). Keeps for a couple weeks in a Tupperware.

The question is: is the cast iron broke in?

I salivate at all the posts you make about food so much that comprehension is impossible.

It's your fault, really.

It's pre-seasoned, but I think I am going to cook up some bacon in it to ensure decent seasoning, cook the steaks and have the bacon on my baked potatoes.

And...it's 5 in the morning and I'm hungry suddenly.
Hope your dinner turns out great.
