1. The #1 “mis-steak” people make when grilling grassfed meats?
OVERCOOKING.
Overcooking leads to a dry, tough steak. Not good!
How to get the most out of your steak?
2. Brandon shares 3 easy tips for grilling your steak just right.
(With frozen, grassfed steaks from The Maker’s Meadow, we recommend that you thaw them for one to two days in the fridge before grilling.) Bring to room temperature just before cooking.
For best results Cook on a charcoal or gas grill (therwise use cast iron for pan frying)
- Make sure the grill / pan is hot.
- Use a towel or paper towel and pat your steak dry, then sprinkle with salt/pepper (or any other spices you want like garlic powder or oregano).
- After adding spices (plenty of course salt in a little pepper), immediately place meat on grill. Sear on high heat for no more than 2 minutes per side. For tender and juicy meat, removed from the flames and allow to finish in indirect or low heat. 275ﾟ 8 minutes / pound of steak.
- Press on the steak with tongs. You don’t want it too firm or too soft. If it’s too soft, it needs just a little more time to cook. Cut into the meat to see if it’s to your liking. If not, put it back on the grill and cook for a little longer.
Make sure you let your steak rest in a warm area for a 5-8 minutes after you remove from the grill. It will actually continue cooking during that time.
You’ll get the most flavor out of a grassfed steak when cooked medium rare. If that’s too pink for you, here’s a good chart to go by:
The desired internal temperatures for grass-fed beef are:
- Rare — 120F
- Medium Rare — 125F
- Medium — 130F
- Medium Well — 135F
- Well — 140F and no more.
IMPORTANT NOTE! To achieve the desired temperature, remove the meat from heat when it’s about 10 degrees lower than your goal temperature. The residual heat will finish cooking the meat over the next ten minutes as you let it rest.
