I season the steak with freshly ground pepper after grilling, because pepper tends to get bitter over high heat. And the garlic cloves taste better the more charred they are, leave the skin on when grilling them, the garlic will fall out once it’s grilled and they’ll be perfectly softened. Don’t skip the finishing butter, the one I use is garlic and herbs, this makes the steak a solid 10 out of 10! I’m a firm believer that a good steak doesn’t need sauce, and the finishing butter is what perfects the steak.
Pro tip: Top off the steaks with the juices and charred bits from the pan, all that fatty flavor is a must have, don’t serve the steaks without it! Look at those grill marks!
