Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 lb Top sirloin steak 1"-1.5" thick
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon Black pepper

Instructions

  • Remove the steak from the refrigerator, bringing it to come to room temperature for at least 20-30 minutes. 
    1 lb Top sirloin steak
  • Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, or 450 degrees f.
  • Season steaks with a generous sprinkle of salt and pepper., or use a favorite dry spice blend
    1 teaspoon Kosher salt, ½ teaspoon Black pepper
  • Once seasoned, place the steak on the grill and cook for about 5-8 minutes one side. The steak should have nice dark grill marks but should not be overly cooked.
  • Flip and if necessary, lower the heat a bit, down to 400 degrees f or medium heat. Continue to grill for another 4-8 minutes, until desired doneness is achieved. See recipe notes for recommended cooking times and internal temperatures.
  • Remove steaks from the grill and place on a cutting board or platter. Cover with foil and allow to rest for at least 5 minutes. The temperature will continue to rise about 5 degrees f during the resting period, which is called “carryover cooking.”
  • To serve, slice thinly on the bias and serve.

Notes

1 pound of grilled steak should yield approximately 3 4 ounce servings. 
For medium rare steaks that are 1″ thick, total grilling time will be approximately 9-12 minutes, and 12-15 minutes for a 1.5″ thick steak. To cook to medium, grill for 10-13 minutes for 1″ steaks, or 13-16 minutes for 1.5″ thick steaks.
For most accurate reading, use an instant read thermometer to check doneness. Medium rare grilled top sirloin steaks should cook to about 130 degrees f, and medium steaks should reach about 140 degrees f.
