This juicy grilled New York strip steak is so easy to perfect at home for a summer cook out. NY strip steak is a thin and uniform cut of meat, making it quick and simple to cook evenly throughout. Paired with a side of perfectly charred asparagus, dinner is a breeze.
Our grill makes it easier than ever to get the same char as a propane gas grill. And thanks to Woodfire Technology, you can create 100% real woodfire flavors at the same time—and without the hassle.
TIP: Try making a flavored compound butter with fresh herbs and garlic to serve with the steak and asparagus and give this dish extra flair.
