My route:

filets...has to be filets. Costco sells some nice ones, not too pricey. Good marbling is a must.

lightly seasoned with hickory smoke and garlic

left out to get to room temp before grilling....maybe 2 or so hours before grill time.

Put on the grill, flame down as low as possible.

coat with a mix of melted butter and garlic salt. after each flip. dont overcoat or else it will flame.

For every inch of thickness, I flip the steak about every 4-5 minutes.

For the average filet, that means 3 total flips after the initial placement....17 or so minutes.

Take off the flame, place in a covered tupperware for about 4 or so minutes so allow final internal cooking.

Serve. Nice, medium rare filets.

I enjoy grilled veggies, corn on the cob, baked potato, or potato salad with my steak.

Also, Hawaiian Punch. I pretend it is an expensive cabernet.
