Tips for better Pork Steak
- Rest it. Let pork steak rest 5 minutes after cooking so the juices redistribute before you slice.
- Use a thermometer, not the clock. Grills have hot and cold spots — pull at 145°F internal.
- Don't flip too early. Let a crust form so the cut releases cleanly before you turn it.
