  • Grill the steak to your preferred temperature, we recommend medium. Remember the steak will continue to cook some after you remove it from the grill
  • Slice the meat to the preferred thickness, cutting against the grain. NOTE: Don't worry if it isn't cut along the grain. It's so good slicing doesn't matter!
