How to Grill a Steak

You can start with fillet Mignon. Fillet Mignon is a small boneless steak cut from the outside of the loin and is perfect for grilling. This type of steak may be costly.

Season the fillet with freshly ground black pepper. Let the meat to retain its natural flavor. Allow the seasoned fillet to reach room temperature once it is seasoned. You can set it aside for 45 minutes.

Next, fire up the grill and put it at its highest temperature setting. Use tongs to place the meat on the grill. Leave it for around 2 minutes. You can splash small amount of water if you see some flaring up on the meat. Then lift the steak at about 90 degree angle and set it down on its other side. Flip it again after 5 minutes. Make sure you flip the meat gently and place it on the same spot. Leave it again for 2 minutes. Then turn the fillet and flip it back.

Choose whether you want your meat medium or medium-rare. Do this by checking the meat if it is rightly cooked. Avoid poking the steak. You will know if you have cooked medium if you give the meat a light push and you leave a dent on the meat's surface. Medium-rare on the other hand is if the meat feels firm. If it's already firm then it's rightly cooked and you can take it off from the grill. You can cook either way, this just depends on your own preference.

Take off the meat from the grill slowly, place it on a plate, set it aside and let it stay for a couple of minutes to let the meat set well.

Grilling steaks may sound like easy, but to have a perfectly grilled steak, you need to practice a lot. Try not burning your steak by practicing these tips. With constant practice, you can surely cook your own perfect fillet Mignon steak.
