Searing marinated petite sirloin steaks on the grill!

Grill over direct heat for about 3-5 minutes on each side (or a bit longer according to your desired doneness). If you want a well done steak (like my family prefers), continue cooking on indirect heat for another 10 minutes or so for each side.

Here are the cooking temperatures (all in Fahrenheit) according to how done you want your steak (using a meat thermometer).

Well done: about 165-170 degrees

Medium Well: 155-165 degrees

*Medium Rare: 130 – 135 degrees (Recommended cooking doneness for steak)

Medium: 140 -150 degrees

Rare: 120-130 degrees
