Why Whiskey Works in Meat Marinades

Whiskey adds more than just a boozy punch—it brings a bold depth of flavor that enhances grilled meats. Its natural sweetness pairs beautifully with the saltiness of soy and the richness of butter, creating a well-balanced marinade that tenderizes the meat while layering in complex notes of caramel, smoke, and spice. The alcohol also helps carry these flavors deeper into the filet, making each bite rich, juicy, and flavorful.

The Benefits of High-Heat Searing

Searing over high heat isn’t just for show—it’s the key to locking in juices and creating that crave-worthy crust. The Maillard reaction that occurs at high temperatures caramelizes the surface of the meat, delivering deep flavor and a satisfying texture. With the Gravity Series dialed up to 600°F, you’ll get an even, golden-brown sear that contrasts beautifully with the tender, juicy interior. This quick-cook method is ideal for thick, high-quality cuts like filet, maximizing flavor without overcooking.
