Grilled steak is a dish made by grilling a cut of beef, typically a tender and flavorful cut such as ribeye, sirloin, or filet mignon. The steak is seasoned with salt, pepper, and other spices before being cooked on a grill or barbecue until it reaches the desired level of doneness. The exterior of the steak is seared to create a flavorful crust, while the interior remains juicy and tender. Grilled steak is often served with side dishes such as vegetables, potatoes, or a salad. It is a popular and classic dish enjoyed by many meat lovers.
