Across the state, football fans are supporting their teams and doing some tailgating. The truly hardcore tailgaters don’t consider it ‘real’ tailgating if you don’t bring the grill.
There’s just something about flame-grilling that gets you all fired up to call the Hogs or support your local high school team. We have our go-to items we love to grill: burgers, ribs, shrimp, chicken and, of course, a big juicy steak. We usually grab a beef steak, which is a great choice. But have you ever grilled a pork steak? Talk about a new twist on an old favorite. Grilling takes a big, juicy pork steak to a whole new level of delicious.
