STEAK:  THE CUTS

Ribeye

The ribeye is without doubt one of the best-tasting steaks.  

With its marbling, it tends to cook up very tender, juicy, rich and full of flavour.  

T-Bone

This is a steak with a bone shaped like a "T".  It has meat on each side. 

Fillet

This is a boneless section that has melt-in-your-mouth quality and buttery texture.  

Striploin Steak

A succulent steak, with a thin layer of fat that preserves juiciness. 

Sirloin Steak

Well aged for maximum tenderness.

BBQ TIPS: 

Clean the grill grate with an onion cut in half - it also adds great flavour to the BBQ.    

Turn on or light the BBQ and wait until it reaches cooking temperature. Cut a large onion in half, and using a fork, rub the onion up and down the rack. It removes all the grease from your previous outing and adds a nice flavour when cooking meat.  Allow time for the barbecue to heat to maximum.  The charcoal must be grey.  It is very important to allow the proper time for the food to cook.

    

Keep the grill grate 3-6 inches from the coals.

Have all the right tools before you begin, use a tongs.   

Don't use a fork as this puts holes in the meat allowing juices to escape and dries up the meat.

Turn meat only once when cooking as it will lose juices each time you turn. 

Make sure the meat is cooked thoroughly and evenly.

Let your steak rest allowing the juices to settle for a tender result.

Sit back, tuck in and enjoy!
