I stopped by the store this evening and picked up a nice bit o’ beef to grill out with. Now when I say ‘bit o’ beef’, I don’t mean some measly little piece of steak. No, never. I tend to pick up at least a 2lb. piece of beef, normally of the pot roast type. Now don’t get me wrong, I enjoy a nice expensive steak on occasion, but most of the time I am eating for quantity, not quality. I can pick up a 2lb+ piece of meat for $7-8 bucks.
I stepped outside this evening, grill lighter in hand. The air was fresh and chilled slightly, making for perfect grilling weather. I popped open the lid, slid the lighter under the grate (my push button igniter is dead), and turned on the gas.
And that is as far as I got. Apparently the last time I grilled out, I neglected to turn off the gas when I was done. *sigh* My propane tank is drained. Sucks!
I hate oven-grilled steaks, but I guess that’s all I can do tonight. Bummer.
If you have to cook indoors, I think it helps to sear the steak before putting into the oven. If I skip the searing, I’ll rub a little olive oil on the steak to help it brown.
