Save the bacon fat! It has many uses. A very important use for us is to
slather the cut edge of a standing rib roast with bacon fat just before it
goes on the grill. The cut edge retains far more moisture this way, and adds
a bit of taste to the end piece. We just bought a USDA Prime standing rib
roast at Costco yesterday. What are you grilling on? It would be nice of you
had a bit higher direct heat temp. to give the steak a bit more char.

Cheers,
