How to Cook a Beefsteak
Ingredients
Directions
Pound the beefsteak well until the fibers break.
Prepare a good amount of coal for broiling.
Place the steak on a double gridiron over the hot coals.
Turn the steak frequently to prevent the juices from dripping off.
Once cooked to your liking, serve the steak hot.
