4 (8 ounce) New York strip steaks (about 2 pounds, see note 1)
2 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

20 minutes before grilling, remove steaks from refrigerator and let stand, covered, at room temperature. Meanwhile, turn all grill burners to high, cover, and heat grill until hot, about 10 to 15 minutes. Clean cooking grate.
Brush each steak with olive oil and sprinkle liberally with kosher salt and pepper on both sides. Add steaks to grill and cook until golden browned and charred on one side, about 4 to 5 minutes.
Flip steaks and continue to grill 3 to 5 minutes for medium-rare (an internal temperature of 130 to 135 degrees F), 5 to 7 minutes for medium (140 to 145 degrees F) or 8 to 10 minutes for medium-well (150 degrees F).
Transfer steaks to a platter and tent loosely with aluminum foil. Let the steaks rest 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

New York Strip Steaks: Also known as ambassador steak, strip loin steak, Kansas City strip, club steak, or Omaha Strip, this cut of beef earned its Big Apple-inspired name after many NYC steakhouses made the steak a signature menu item. Prized for its bold, beefy flavor and the fact that its marbled with fat (and, as a result, tender and even richer than leaner cuts), New York Strip is one of the most popular cuts of beef for grilling. If you can't find or don't love it, try ribeye, sirloin, flank, or round steak.
Yield: Once cooked, this recipe makes four approximately 6-ounce portions of Grilled New York Strip Steak, enough for a generous entree serving.
Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. If you are lucky enough to have leftover steak, try a classic Steak and Eggs for breakfast the next day. Or, pile the steak on a sandwich with mayonnaise, arugula, and tomato. YUM!
