Just in time for the 4th of July holiday weekend we have some great grilling tips for you and a giveaway, all from LongHorn Steakhouse!
Here are a few tips from the grill masters at LongHorn Steakhouse to help you grill the perfect steak this 4th of July
Selecting Your Steak
·
When
selecting a steak, remember three things: cut, marbling and freshness.
·
Marbling
is the whiteness that runs through the steak and makes it juicy.
·
Filets,
sirloins and ribeyes are three common cuts you can find at your local grocer.
o
Filets are lean and tender.
They have a buttery texture and subtle flavor.
o
Sirloins are also a lean cut
and are very juicy.
o
Bone-in Ribeye has the most
marbling – and is the juiciest and most flavorful steak.
·
Fresh
steak is always best because it guarantees the meat will be tender and juicy.
Seasoning Your Steak
·
Seasoning
helps the true flavor of the meat shine and can add another layer of taste to the
meal.
·
For
steaks, LongHorn uses one of three secret dry seasonings, but similar flavors
can be achieved at home.
·
Combine
salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder and mix it together. Adjust the
seasonings as needed.
·
Don’t
be shy when seasoning. Season the steak boldly. Sprinkle and rub the seasoning
on both sides of the meat, making sure it’s coated.
Grilling Your Steak
·
If
you’re using an outdoor chargrill, fully clean and prep it using a
wire-bristled brush and light coat of vegetable or olive oil.
·
Heat
the surface of the grill so that it’s very hot – about 500 degrees.
·
Sear
the steak until grill marks appear, then give it a quarter turn while on the
same side. Flip and repeat.
·
For the LongHorn Steakhouse experience at home, pair
your perfectly grilled steak with a delicious side, like a sweet potato or fresh
vegetables.
