Cooking Tips

STEAK
Grilling Steak
Prpeare grill with 2/3 of the coals on one side of pit, 1/3 on other. This will allow you to sear steaks to
lock in juices on the higher heat and then cook on the lower heat.
Baste steaks with oil several times throughout the cooking process. Salt steaks after cooking
(salt in marinade is O.K.) Seasoning steaks before cooking tends to dry out the meat while cooking.
Use tongs or spatula rather then a grilling fork to turn steaks. Serve immediately. Steaks are juciest
and most tender right off the grill.

Charcoal Grill / Pre Heat Broiler at 375
MEDIUM RARE 4-5 minutes per side
MEDIUM 5-6 minutes per side
WELL DONE 7 + minutes per side
Steaks from the Big & Thick Pack will take
approximately 2-3 minutes longer to cook.

CHICKEN & PORK
Cook thoroughly but be careful not to overcook because pork and chicken dries out and becomes
tough if overcooked.Salt meat after cooking. Like beef, seasoning with salt before cooking will dry
out pork and chicken(salt in marinades is O.K)
All pork products should be cooked thoroughly!
