Given the background description of some cooking related query, summarize the question into a title

Input: Consider Input: I followed all of the tips. Prime sirloin, taken out an hour before cooking. Salted thoroughly 30 minutes prior. Patted dry with paper towels. Thrown on a high (650) degree grill for two minutes per side, finished on low for 3 minutes per side (internal temp was still about 400). Rested 10 minutes.Results: Good sear, beautiful medium-rate insides. Plenty of juice. Enough salt. Problem: the exterior was almost like bark. It wasn't scorched or burnt, but just really really dry.What was the misstep?

Output: A steak story: dry crust


Input: Consider Input: I have a tomato sauce recipe that calls for 1 can (28oz) of diced tomatoes (including the liquid). How can I replace the can with fresh tomatoes? I'm not sure if there is a particular type of tomato I should use or how many of them to use. Also, what can I do to replace the liquid?

Output: How can I replace canned tomatoes with fresh?

Output: Keeping crushed ice from melting, without it joining back together
