    I'm going to be contrary and go with the Sirloin.
    You're lucky just bring the meat, our kids call up and say "What you doing next Saturday." I reply "Nothing that I can remember." They say "Good, what's for dinner?" Gotta love it though, at least they want to see us.

      That’s fantastic, and tell-tale to the quality of cooking you offer.

      Thanks for all the advice guys!

      I've got a 2 pound flank marinating in a zip lock bag with a marinade recipe I found in the Barbecue Bible, which I had all the ingredients for. Two sirloins are dry brining, and will get a coating of Hank's Signature Rub right before I head out the door. We will slice it all, and everyone will have their choice of meat.

      Something that goes great with sirloin....sautéed purple onions and mushrooms. I sauté them in melted butter and a little red wine, garlic salt and pepper. Even better, marinate portobello mushrooms and grill to eat with the steak!

        I gotta learn how to make that! Likely won't be on the menu for tonight, but what I did make was a "Filipino style London broil" marinade from Raichlen, reserving half of the marinade for serving:

        Them at recipe sounds good. Just can’t stand his instructions.
        Oil the grates...
        Use the poke test to determine doneness...

        Here's how it turned out. The marinade for the flank was phenomenal. My son in law has one of those dual fual Chargriller grills, half propane, half charcoal, and I gave all the kids some Grillgrate factory second panels a couple of years back, so that is how we rolled with the cook. Took maybe 12 minutes on medium high heat, to get all 3 peices of meat to 135F, and we carried them in to the cutting board. For desert we had some cookies my daughter made that were almost too pretty to eat! But I ate it, chasing it with beer and Costo blended scotch...

        EDIT: By the time we left a few hours later, there were about two slices of sirloin left on the cutting board, and the daughter and I split that. The son and I munched off the cutting board all evening, finishing off the flank. The juices went everwhere when I started carving - I told my son-in-law that we need to use my router to add a groove to that cutting board of his. It's nice other than that.

          The dogs LOVE it when you forget to use the grooved cutting board :-)

          I think those cookies are too pretty to eat.

        #26
        The steaks look awesome Jim.
        And that cookie. Are you kidding me. It’s a work of art. No wonder you were hesitant to eat it.
        Great times. 👊👊

          Clearly late to the party; but better late than never, I say.

          Anyhow, I vote for flank steak ..... do it like this

          1. Dry brine for as long as possible.
          2. If everyone likes medium rare, then prep for a direct grill only
          3. Right before it hits the grill, hit it with coarse ground pepper and garlic powder
          4. Grill it direct, medium high heat, turning often, until 130F
          5. Meanwhile, prep a board sauce — whatever herbs are handy, olive oil, a bit of kosher salt, red pepper flakes, all mixed together.
          6. Just before pulling the steak, lay out the board sauce on your cutting board
          7. Pull steak and let it rest for a few minutes on top of the board sauce
          8. Slice thin across the grain, allowing the juices to mingle into the board sauce
          9. Spoon the board sauces over the top of the steak and serve

          :-)

            Yep - it sure does. There was juice running EVERYWHERE once we started cutting. I ended up grabbing a sheet pan and tilting the cutting board into it to catch all the juices.
