Perfect Beef Steaks

A beef steak is a flat cut of piece usually grilled, pan fried, baked or broiled. The tender cuts from the loin & ribs are comparatively cooked more rapidly, using dry heat & they are served as whole. Less tender cuts are cooked by moist heat & by marinating. They are typically served with fried chips, fried tomato & fried mushrooms or other vegetables. Special knives are provided to eat them. In France the steak n french fries combo is known as Steak-frites. 

One of my favorite meals is the beef steaks from the grill. But most of us simply don't have grills at home like me :( But there is no need to get sad! Yes!
