How to Perfectly Season a Steak

Using Grill’n McMillian Seasoning

This is more than seasoning—it’s NFL Alumni Mark McMillian’s Gridiron to Grill blend, built for big flavor and a championship-level bite. Follow this simple game plan to bring the BOOM to your steak.

Step 1: Choose Your Cut

This seasoning shines on beef. Ribeye, New York strip, sirloin, filet, or tomahawk all bring home the win.

Step 2: Bring the Steak to Room Temp

Pull your steak from the fridge 30–45 minutes before cooking. This ensures even cooking and lets the seasoning work its magic.

Step 3: Pat It Dry

Use a paper towel to remove surface moisture. A dry steak means better seasoning adhesion and a stronger crust.

Step 4: Shake Generously

This is not the time to play conservative.

  • Shake Grill’n McMillian Seasoning generously on both sides

  • Don’t forget the edges

  • Press lightly to help the rub stick

The blend delivers a play-by-play of smoke, sweet, savory, and a hint of heat, so don’t hold back.

Step 5: Let It Set

Let the seasoned steak rest for 10–20 minutes. This allows the flavors to penetrate the meat and sets you up for that perfect bite.

Step 6: Cook Hot & Confident

Grill, pan-sear, or smoke your steak over high heat until your desired doneness is reached. This seasoning was built to handle the heat and still deliver bold flavor.

Step 7: Rest & Finish Strong

Rest the steak for 5–10 minutes before slicing. This locks in juices and ensures every bite hits like game day.

Pro Tip

For an elite finish, drizzle with one of Grill’n McMillian’s cooking oils or add a light brush of Sweet Heat BBQ Sauce during the final minute of cooking.
