What each ingredient does
- Pork steaks
- Provide the meat that browns and cooks through over direct heat.
- Fresh suet
- Coats the gridiron with fat so the steaks release easily and do not stick.
The step that matters
Turning the steaks frequently. Frequent turning spreads the heat evenly and keeps fat drippings from flaring up and smoking, which can scorch the surface before the centre is cooked.
