How to Cook a New York Strip Steak

The strip steak is best when grilled however it will taste just as divine pan fried. Cooking it in the oven is a misdemeanour as far as I'm concerned!

Make sure your strip steak is at room temperature before you start. Trim the fat that's greater than half an inch or so, and cut through fat strip every 1 inch along. Lightly brush the strip steak with a good quality olive oil. Not to much mind as you do not want flare ups on the grill. Coat each side of the steaks with 1 teaspoon of black pepper and 1 teaspoon of salt. Pre heat the grill and take it to its highest temperature & then oil the grate. Place the strip steak on the grill for three minutes, then flip for another three minutes. Then do it again for a total cooking time of 12 minutes. Try not slide the steaks across the grill, pick them up with tongs. And do not flip them around. Be gentle with them Use the blunt end of the grilling fork to check for desired tenderness and remove when done to your satisfaction. For rare allow for 12 minutes and then just add a 2 minutes for each level of "doneness" if there is such a word!Let the steak rest for 5 minutes, trim remaining fat and serve to your hungry crowd.
