Flavouring Steak

The first place to start when grilling the perfect Steak is with the perfect cut of meat. You need to know a few basics about grades and cuts before you head over to the local meat market so you can get the Steak that's right for you. As a simple general rule take a good look at that steak before you buy it. The meat should be a bright red, the fat should be a creamy white and there should be thin streaks of fat running through the meat. Also, if you can afford it try to buy choice grade meat over select.

Flavoring a Steak: The perfect Steak needs the right flavors, but different steak cuts should be prepared differently. You may prefer just a light dusting of fresh cracked pepper on that rib eye, but there are so many things you can do with a Steak to enhance the flavors or season it precisely for that special dish. Tender and flavorful steaks may not need any help but a flank Steak needs the right marinade to make it tender. But remember it's your Steak so you flavor it the way you want it. One way to really add something extra to any Steak to to top it with a sauce or cheese.(Derrick Riches - bbq about)
