Grilling Tips
- Preheat your grill on high for 10–15 minutes. A hot grate sears better and locks in juices.
- Oil your steak, not the grill — prevents sticking and flare-ups.
- Use tongs, not a fork. Piercing the meat releases juices.
- Let it rest 5 minutes before slicing to retain moisture.
- For extra flavour, try a quick marinade or a simple rub of salt, pepper, and olive oil before grilling.
