Hard to find sometimes but worth ordering online.
Always allow meat to cook on it's own when grilling.
NEVER NEVER NEVER poke, smash, cut, or mess with the meat.
Only exception is if you HAVE to use a meat thermometer to know when it
has reached desired wellness (or lack thereof). Still try to keep it minimal.
When finished cooking allow the meat to "rest" for 1-2 minutes (2 max).
This will allow the meat to lock in the juices and flavor.
So.. what's your basis for the false claims that marinades "take the natural juice" away from steaks?

I supposed you should tell that to the last few Tri-tip's and Flank steaks i've marinated which were filled with natural juices...

Additionally, you're going to want to let the steaks rest 5-10 minutes (more if it's a roast or larger cut of meat)..

Dry rubs are great, as are marinades - both have their place in culinary and each one provides a distinct culinary experience...
