Tips for cooking a perfect steak
Whether you are working with a rib eye, flank steak, skirt steak, new york strip or even filet mignon, here are a few tips to help you cook a good steak every time!
- Never cook a cold steak! The first step is remembering to defrost your steak in plenty of time. Always allow your steak to come to room temperature before cooking!
- It’s always a good idea to use a paper towel to pat your steak dry. This will allow for better contact between the steak and pan, and is a great way to get a good sear.
- Season steak minimally to allow as much flavor from the beef to shine through! If you are simply making a pan-seared steak, a little kosher salt and pepper is really all you need! Be sure to follow the recipe closely for that sweet spot of seasoning for that particular dish.
- When grilling steak, the right pan makes a difference! Using a cast iron pan will allow for even heat distribution and will give your steak a beautiful caramelization.
- Don’t over cook your steak. This, of course, is personal preference, but overcooked steak is tough and dry. Remember that thinner steak will cook up very quickly. Using a meat thermometer is the best way to reach the desired internal temperature.
- Allow the grilled meat to rest before cutting into it. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat for the juiciest, best steak ever. Just place the cooked steak on a warm plate, covered with aluminum foil, and allow to sit for at least 10 minutes before slicing into it.
- For tougher cuts of meat, try slow cooking or using the instant pot for tender meat every time.
