BEST STEAKS FOR GRILLING:

Rib-eye - Juicy and well-marbled.

Rib steak - A bone-in rib-eye, thicker than a normal rib-eye, but you all know how much more flavorful a steak on the bone can be.

Strip steak - Lean, meaty and firm texture.

Sirloin - Rich, red and meaty. Flavorful, but tends to be tough. Slice thinly when serving.

Porterhouse - Two steaks in one: a firm strip sirloin and a succulent tenderloin. Normally 2-3" thick.

T-bone - Similar to a Porterhouse, but the tenderloin is smaller.

Filet Mignon - Lean and tender; you can cut it with a fork.

Flank or Skirt Steak - From the underbelly of the steer. Highly flavorful, but tough and stringy. Cook medium rare; slice against the grain.
