Rest the Steak
Remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Fries Preparation

Prepare the Potatoes
Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick. Soak the fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

Fry the Potatoes
Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot (around 350°F/175°C), drain the fries from the water and pat them dry. Fry in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 5-6 minutes per batch.
