Picture this: a pristine fourth of July, the streamers are set and there's beer in the cooler chilling. Your grill is ready to go and the steaks are in the fridge. You slap on the steaks and let 'er rip; There's nothing to it! Just grill until the steaks look down. A few minutes run by and it looks like your steaks are good to flip but half of them are stuck and ripped, the one in the corner keeps spitting fireballs, and to top it all off, the guests are starting to get a little antsy.
