Steps:
- Preheat the grill to high. Brush the grill with a wire grill brush to remove any soot and fat on the grill grates. Wipe the grill grate with an oiled cloth to remove any bits of crud that were loosened by brushing.
- Remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature. Season the steaks generously with salt and let sit for at least 15 minutes.
- Arrange the steaks on the hottest part of the grill until beautiful brown grill marks form, then rotate the steaks 90 degrees to create the crosshatch marks.
- Turn the steaks over and repeat the process. Once the grill marks have formed on the second side, move the steaks to a cooler part of the grill and let cook to the desired doneness. Cook about 5 to 6 minutes on each side for medium-rare.

GRILLED MARINATED STRIP STEAKS WITH SPICY CRAB SALAD
Steps:
- In a small dry skillet over medium heat, add the chiles, chili powder, coriander, cumin, oregano, paprika, and cinnamon stick. Heat just until the ingredients become fragrant, about 1 to 2 minutes. Put the spices into a grinder and pulse to a powder. Massage the dry chili rub into the steaks; cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- For the crab salad: Put the crabmeat in a bowl and add the mayonnaise, shallots, cilantro, chili sauce, and lime juice. Mix gently to combine the ingredients without breaking up the large lumps of crabmeat. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Remove the steaks from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before you want to grill them to bring them up to room temperature. Heat the grill; brush the grate with some olive oil. Season the steaks with salt and pepper and place them on the hot grill. Cook for 6 to 7 minutes per side for medium rare. When the steaks are cooked to your liking, put them on a platter, cover them with aluminum foil, and let them rest for 5 minutes. Serve a generous scoop of crab meat on top of the steaks. Garnish with lime wedges.

Tips:
- Choose the right steak: Select strip steaks that are at least 1-inch thick and have good marbling. This will ensure that the steaks are juicy and flavorful.
- Marinate the steaks: Marinating the steaks in a flavorful marinade for at least 30 minutes will help to tenderize the meat and add flavor.
- Preheat the grill: Preheat your grill to high heat before cooking the steaks. This will help to sear the steaks and create a nice crust.
- Cook the steaks to your desired doneness: The cooking time for the steaks will vary depending on the thickness of the steaks and your desired doneness. For medium-rare steaks, cook the steaks for 4-5 minutes per side. For medium steaks, cook the steaks for 6-7 minutes per side. For well-done steaks, cook the steaks for 8-9 minutes per side.
- Let the steaks rest: After cooking the steaks, let them rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steaks, making them more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Grilled strip steaks are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a summer cookout. By following these tips, you can ensure that your grilled strip steaks are juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. So fire up the grill and enjoy!
