There is no substitute for a good steak, but I would never put salt on one before grilling. This would dry the meat & that is the last thing anyone should do.If one must use salt on any food before cooking, try the sea salt as it does not do the harm regular salt will do.
Basic Grilled Steak
Turn the steaks only once as you cook them. The more time they are in direct contact with the grill, the better. Serve with corn and Smoked Tomatoes.
