From Denny:  Want to learn the best tips for grilling that perfect steak? Warm weather - and a hearty  pollen season - have arrived here in south Louisiana and our thoughts are already turning to grilling season. If you want to perfect your technique, learn how to make a perfect French classic sauce in the blender or brush up on your steak cooking knowledge, then read on. Oh, and no drooling allowed. :)



Grilled Steak Menu

■ Filet, Porterhouse or New York strip.

Toppings

■ Béarnaise Sauce.

■ Sautéed Mushrooms.

■ Blue Cheese Butter.



What steaks do most people enjoy?

It's about personal preference and how big a portion you can eat.  Look for good marbling in the meat and are bright red in color.  The less marbling of fat the leaner - and sometimes tougher - will be the meat.  Filet is a far leaner steak and it's advisable to rub it with a bit of olive oil before grilling so it will stay moist during the cooking process.


Most popular steak cuts: 

New York Strip - very meaty flavor with bone in
Porterhouse - very meaty flavor too
Filet - tender, juicy, foolproof to grill in a pan or outside on the grill
