With nearly $450 billion in assets and 5 million participants, the retirement plan for government workers--the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP)--is the largest defined-contribution plan in the U.S. But it's a quiet giant: While the TSP website includes a lot of valuable information for plan participants, the TSP funds are not mutual funds, so you won't see data for them on Morningstar.com or other media outlets.
The Theory: You want your meat to cook evenly from edge to center. Therefore, the closer it is to its final eating temperature, the more evenly it will cook. Letting it sit on the counter for 20 to 30 minutes will bring the steak up to room temperatureâa good 20 to 25Â°F closer to your final serving temperature. In addition, the warmer meat will brown better because you don't need to waste energy from the pan to take the chill off of its surface.
Instructions. 1  Rest the steaks at room temperature for about 1 hour if possible allowing the steaks to come to room temperature. 2  Apply salt and pepper at the start of you resting period. 3  Trim the beef of extra fat.  Preheat your grill to 1  maximum. Place over direct heat.
