Best Steaks for Grilling
Even a steakhouse can't make a tough, flavorless steak tender and delicious. Starting with a thick steak is key – but which cut? With all of the options at the market, it's hard to know what to choose. Here are our favorites.

STRIP STEAK
Good flavor with lots of marbling.
RIB-EYE STEAK
Very flavorful with lots of marbling and a smooth, fine texture.
FILET MIGNON
Mild flavor (too mild for some), meltingly tender, surprisingly lean.
T-BONE
Strip and tenderloin in one, fatty (in a good way) flavor and texture.
PORTERHOUSE
Strip and tenderloin in one, but tenderloin is a larger than in T-bone steak.
