just awful...

i'll venture an educated guess that you end up buying whatever cut of select steak you find on sale.

Based on the italian dressing line, I assume you're a novice cook, so here are a few super easy options:
--Fresh pineapple, basted w/coconut milk; bonus points for a tiny sprinkle of crushed red pepper
--Foil packets of yukon gold potatoes, cut into chunks, along with sliced onions, fresh rosemary, and lots of EVOO. Easy even for a novice, and you can move the packet(s) around as needed while grilling other things. Use a finger to test when the potatoes are soft (thru the packet) and you can't go wrong.
--Thick slices of sourdough bread, rubbed w/EVOO and a cut garlic clove. Laugh if you want, but grilled bread is damn delicious. Use it to sop up meat juices, or as a base for bruschetta or avocado toast
--Chicken livers. Skewer, sprinkle w/an all purpose seasoning (Tony's, Slap Ya Mama, etc), and cook hot & fast on the grill. Don't overcook; serve w/pepper jelly as a dip.

Avocados on the halfshell with a cracked egg (or better yet, a schucked oyster) in the middle

Skip the steak if you’re going to bathe it in dressing.

Get a prize pizza, slather the underside in olive oil and throw it on the grill (lid down).
