<bowing down to newbie status>im going to bar b que do i just put them on the grill, or do i need to put it on something???</*>
 

Mmmm...flank steak. When I was a kid, I'd always invite myself to my friend's house down the street for dinner when his dad grilled flank steaks.

Wrap 'em up with a slice of bacon and you'll never taste anything better.

:D

Remember: when it's hot out side you don't have to cook them as long.

becareful and not over cook them or dry them out or you might as well take you shoe off and gnaw on that. my suggestion is to cover the top of them with aluminum foil when they are on the grill.

over coals or gas?

if it is coals, make sure to put in enough. Those babys are going to sweat marinade and juice, and extinguish the coals quite a bit. it happened to me last night!
I got the steak cooked, but barely. Then slice it on the daigonal in thin slices across the grain. It should fork-cut after that.:p

IMO.. Cook over coals. Till just before the desired doneness. Then take off and wrap in tin foil for about 10 minutes. This is called carry-over cooking. What it does is it allows all the juices to move back to the center of the meat. The meat will be so incredible and juicy.

It will also take them about one more notch up the doneness scale.
