Since Man discovered fire, we've had a passionate love affair
with grilling. And no one has perfected this culinary tradition
like Americans. Since the average grill can turn out enough food
for a crowd, when it comes time to throw a party, easy grilling
is much appreciated.
What to grill? To make mouths water, just mention "grilling" and
"steak" in the same sentence. Beef is by far the most popular
meat for grilling in backyards across America, and steak is
prized above all. Grilled steak for a crowd can be filet, strip,
ribeye or T-bone there's a steak for every appetite.
To treat your guests to from-the-grill steaks with real
steakhouse flavor, look for perfectly marbled, premium quality
Angus beef from Sutton & Dodge. Angus cattle, raised under
careful specifications, can be counted on for steaks that are
consistent in flavor and tenderness.
Created exclusively for SuperTarget, Sutton & Dodge Angus steaks
and roasts provide the flavor and quality of a traditional
steakhouse experience at home. Whether enjoying kabobs, filet
mignon, a hearty T-bone, strip, ribeye or roast, these Angus beef
products deliver taste satisfaction usually only found when
dining out. Meal planning is simple with this premium beef
offered in a variety of family packs perfect for a crowd!
And when it's time to heat the grill, here are some delicious
tips for grilling steak from Thermos Grills:
- Plan ahead: Always preheat your grill!
- Apply seasoning, whether salt and pepper or a rub of various
herbs and spices, before grilling.
- Take the "fridge chill" off steak by letting it sit for up to 30
minutes before grilling.
- Grill steaks over medium high heat for browning, which adds
flavor and eye appeal.
- Judging doneness can be learned through experience; if you're a
beginner, use a meat thermometer (160°F for well done).
- As a rule of thumb, 10 to 12 minutes on medium high will cook a
steak rare, 12 to 14 minutes will cook a steak rare to medium and
14 to 18 minutes will cook a steak well to well done.
- Let steaks rest for 5 to 10 minutes after removing from the
grill; this allows juices to redistribute for a nice 'n' juicy
steak. If cut too soon, juices will run from steak.
- Remember that a steak will continue to cook while it is resting.
Choose your steaks, chill the drinks and heat the grill. Let the
party begin!

Skinny tips for great grilling
Savory meals from the grill can be both delicious and nutritious.
Tips for planning lean and healthful menus featuring beef come
from Dr. Susan Mitchell, registered dietitian and nutrition
expert for SuperTarget:
- Lean toward "loin." Look for the word "loin" or "round" on beef
packaging. These words are your clue to beef cuts high in taste
and low in fat.
- Palm your portion. In general, the size of your palm
approximates the amount of meat that's the right portion for your
body size.
- Let savory flavors rule. Use marinades, rubs and sauces that are
low-fat flavor boosters. Sutton & Dodge offers a world of flavors
in rub and marinade products.
- Fresh is key for food safety. Sutton & Dodge uses new packaging
technology, which keeps meat fresher longer in the refrigerator
than conventionally wrapped meat.
- Add color for nutrition, eye and taste appeal. Make kabobs with
lean beef and add fruits and veggies. Host a "cook your own
kabob" party by offering cubes of steak and a colorful array of
vegetables cut for kabobs. Cherry tomatoes, summer squash, onion,
colored bell peppers all offer color, taste and nutrition.
- Finish off your menu with fruit from the grill. Pineapple,
peaches, nectarines, plums, even pitted cherries can be grilled
briefly to enhance their natural sweetness. Serve with a dollop
of whipped cream. The beauty of grilled fruit is its intense
sweetness.
