He gave us tips on how to best prepare the steak you plan to grill.
"I think if you let it sit out a little bit, that's the best way to go," he said.
Lindner told News 12 that hosting big groups on a budget can be tricky. He suggested to purchase easy to prepare meats, like burgers, hot dogs and sausages. You can also buy these items in bulk.
