What each ingredient does

Rump steak
Is the main protein, cooked by direct heat to brown its surface and stay tender inside.

The step that matters

Grilling the steak over direct heat. Surface browning comes from the Maillard reaction, which needs high heat and a dry surface. Cooking time depends on thickness, so checking doneness rather than relying only on the clock helps prevent a steak that is overcooked or underdone.
