So many folks have thoughts about how to achieve the “perfect steak.”

This video shows us Dave’s ideas on the matter. And I tend to agree. This strip steak looks absolutely perfect.

I like mine a bit more cooked, but take a gander and see what you think. Try his tips and grill YOUR perfect steak this weekend!

To be honest, I DO NOT spend time watching Honey Boo Boo. There’s enough drama and outright ridiculousness in my own life so I really don’t need to watch any more of that.

BUT, this was too good to pass up. I mean, Pumpkin was gonna eat 3 lbs. of meat PLUS a 1-lb. bun. This I had to see.

Regretfully, this video is only a teaser for the meatlicious episode. But they rerun these shows so often you’re bound to catch it.

That is, if you’re as meat-curious as I am. I cannot believe a young woman could eat that much meat in one sitting.

But I’ve seen stranger things before.

And since it’s grilling season, I’m thinking YOU should have a cookout and issue your own challenge along these lines.

Make posters, set up a Facebook account. See who can eat the most meat in one sitting.

What else is summer for, right?

Bon appetit!

Grilling is hard, man.

At least I think so. If you want it medium rare, you must time it just right.

If you like very little pink inside, well, you have to time it right, too.

It’s a lot of pressure.

But the end result is so worth it.

That’s what I like this handy dandy grilling chart. It helps me figure out how NOT to mess up the meat.

Plus, you can see some great summer grilling tips from the experts here. That’ll help the summer grilling become epic around your house.

Happy cooking, mates! And may the magic touch be with you. And also with me.
