4 beef T-bone steaks, cut 1 inch thick
  • 6 cloves garlic, crushed

  • 1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper

  • Directions
    1. Trim fat from steaks. For rub, in a small bowl combine garlic, pepper, and salt. Sprinkle over both sides of steaks; rub in with your fingers.
    2. For a charcoal grill, grill steaks on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium heat until desired doneness, turning once halfway through grilling. Allow 10 to 12 minutes for medium-rare (145 degree F) or 12 to 15 minutes for medium doneness (160 degree F). Serve with Grilled Corn Relish.

    In a small bowl combine 3 tablespoons lime juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and 1 teaspoon chili powder. Remove husks and silks from 2 ears fresh sweet corn. Brush corn lightly with some of the lime juice mixture. For a charcoal grill, grill corn on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium-hot coals for 10 to 20 minutes or until tender and slightly charred in places, turning occasionally. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium-high. Place corn on grill rack over heat. Cover and grill as above.) Set corn aside until cool enough to handle. Cut corn kernels from cobs. Combine corn kernels; 2 tomatillos, finely chopped; 1 small sweet pepper, chopped; 1/4 cup snipped fresh cilantro; 3 tablespoons finely chopped red onion; 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, and the remaining lime juice mixture.
