Favorite Beef Cuts to BBQ
When grilling beef, the cuts that make the best BBQ meat are the most tender portions. Look for rib eye and porterhouse steaks, as well as the classic t-bone and strip steaks. Meat cut from the tenderloin, such as filet mignon, is the most tender, but also the most expensive.
Avoid skirt steaks or flank steaks. These cuts don’t make good BBQ meat choices since they have little marbling and are usually pretty thin. If you do use them, make sure to marinate well and be careful not to overcook them.
You can buy your BBQ meat a few days before you plan to use it. Storing it in the fridge for a couple of days can help to age it and make it more tender after it is cooked.
