Sizzling Steak Recipes for the Grill

Grilled New York Strip Steaks Recipe

For the absolute best of a classic, everything-you-expect grilled steak experience, you simply can’t beat the New York strip steak. Remember that no matter how you’re cooking a steak, success starts at the supermarket. When shopping, look for steaks that have a nice, even marbling of fat throughout, avoiding those that have a thick ribbon of fat going down the center. Even if it feels like an extraneous step, don’t skip out on making the garlic butter and tying up a bundle of herbs to serve as your basting brush. Trust us, the results are more than worth the minimal time doing both will require. Both will boost the flavor of your steak like you wouldn't believe.

Carne Asada Recipe

Get ready for the most epically delicious taco night of your life. The stars? Our classic, flavor-packed carne asada marinade and a hunk of skirt steak.

After you’ve allowed your beef to marinate for at least 4 hours (and up to 12) and grill it to your desired degree of doneness, you’re ready to eat. You can enjoy the steak sliced over rice, in a salad, or with your favorite side dishes—or go with our favorite route, and serve it as seen here in charred corn tortillas with a variety of toppings, like sliced avocados, crumbled queso fresco, sliced radishes, minced onion, lime wedges, and fresh cilantro.
