Uhm, what about the 'rest' period afterwards? That will dry your steak more than excess salt just before grilling!
3-5 mins rest, covered, before cutting the steak allows it to relax and finish redistributing its juices. It also continues to cook adding about 5 degree to the internal temp. I don't, but some 'finish' with [garlic] butter for that heart-healthy palate boost.
For easier non-stick, if needed, oil the meat instead of the grill. A HOT grill is best as the sear naturally releases.
Steaks look gorgeous! The only parts I disagree with is the heavy salting of the steak. a little kosher salt is ok but overkill can dry it out. I also like to oil up the hot grill grates to get even better grill marks :)
Oh yeah and make sure the grill is screaming hot before you put the steaks on
i stab a bunch of holes in my meat and soak it in soy sauce overnite and add a lil pepper and that makes a perfect steak, using a bunch of salts and seasonings hides the true flavor of the meat
Tried this last weekend my wife was impressed. thanks for the video the meat was delicious! i would recommend some robert mondavi cabernet sauvignon while you cook and eat.
Good advice, especially with respect to the seasoning. So many people fail to season adequately and end up with humdrum food. A ripping hot fire makes the tastiest steak too.
My only caveat would be to say that I prefer charcoal over propane, cancer risk and all. Most of us don't eat beefsteak every night and I'm willing to risk ingesting a few nitrosamines now and again to get that great smoky taste. Hey if the carcinogens don't get ya the saturated fat will. But what a way to go!
Really simple, really good. Just one thing. The internal temp is actually for a doneness measure not for health reasons; the inside of the muscle is sterile so you can eat it warm and purple if you want. Of course the outside is a different story.
@Grufian Imagine a video discussing Toyota cars. somebody writes a comment : "If that's what you call a "car" come and see REAL car in Ferrary dealership". what would you think about that persons mental capabilities? While your comment may be valid it lacks the relevance for most of the consumers thus making it quite stupid.
I'm a vegetarian (15 yrs now), but this video reminded me of my old Omaha Steak days. However, I relied on old fashioned pan frying with a generous helping of sauteed button mushrooms. Nowadays I eat Morningstar Farms 1/4 lb veggie burgers for my "steak fixes"; yeah it's just as good w/o all the saturated fat and cholesterol worries.
Plenty of protein from eggs, beans, and various other foods. Remember, Ive been at it for more than a decade with no plans of returning to my carnivorous past.

Thanks for that. I learned more in 3 minutes about cooking steaks than I've learned in 20 years of trying to perfect it.

With the mad cow scare along with all bacteria and parasite warnings in recent years, I can't believe people still cook/eat medium bloody meat.

consumer reports is one the few trustworthy sources. i even trust their mpg estimates for cars more than the epa estimates.

If that meat is what you term "marbled," you have never been to Japan to see what REAL marbling looks like. (Kobe or Matsuzaka)
