Ingredients
Instructions
  1. In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, pepper, and garlic.  Place the steaks on a shallow dish and rub the garlic mixture all over the meat.  Marinate at room temperature for 1 to 2 hours or, better still, covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.  Turn the meat from time to time to coat both sides evenly.

  2. Remove the steaks from the refrigerator an hour before cooking.

  3. Do not salt your steaks just before cooking.  Salt brings moisture (water) to the surface of the steak, and the water sits on the surface as you cook the steak.  Thus, you are again basically steaming the steak.  I know that some people do salt their steaks before cooking, but trust me and don't salt - the result will be juicy, delicious steaks to serve your family and guests!  Salt after the steak is cooked to your liking, has rested the required time, and just before serving.  

  4. When you are ready to grill, preheat barbecue grill.  Place steaks onto hot grill.  Cover barbecue with lid, open any vents, and sear for approximately 3 to 4 minutes per side.  Your steak is done when the internal temperature registers 120 to 130 degrees F. on your instant-read meat thermometer:

  5. Rare - 120 degrees F. 

  6. Medium Rare - 125 degrees F.
  7. Medium - 130 degrees F.
  8. What constitutes rare and medium-rare cooked meat?  To satisfy government home economists, the Beef Council says rare beef means an internal temperature of 140 degrees F.  Well, that is ok if you like well-done and dry meat.  If you like moist, rosy meat (like I do), rare begins when the internal temperature registers 120 degrees F. and starts to become medium rare at 125 or 130 degrees F.  To cook your meat properly, you must purchase and use a good instant-read digital meat thermometer.

  9. When the steaks are crusty-charred and done to your liking, remove from the grill, let sit 15 minutes before serving (meat temperature will rise 5 to 10 degrees after it is removed from the oven).  Place on a platter or individual dinner plates.

  10. Makes 4 servings.
