If you’d like to grill the perfect steaks - freeze them first...

If you’ll be throwing steaks on the grill this weekend - throw them in the freezer first...

A good steakhouse steak has a dry, flavorful crust and freezing your steak before grilling can help you achieve that. Cook’s Illustrated magazine has the recipe. Generously salt both sides of your steaks first. Put them in the freezer, unwrapped, for 30 to 45 minutes while you prepare the grill. The salt and cold temperatures evaporate the moisture from the surface of your steak which will result in a crispy, brown crust. You’ll want those steaks to go straight from the freezer onto your hot grill to sear the surfaces and lock in the juices.
