Looks a little well done for my tastes. I like to get a really good sear on high heat, produces the most umami flavor and locks in the juices if you let it rest properly. Tougher cuts I still sear then cook low and slow until it’s fall apart tender. Now I’m thinking about red wine braised beef short ribs. 🤤

Nah not accepting your criticism, my steaks are perfect. 🤣

If they taste wonderful to you that’s all that matters.

Just saw this steak being seared on X. I guess you right then a crappy job in comparison to this steak. https://nostr.build/av/7e8cadd410f498fe12f666bf7f1c14254701951cc61cc057deb3e514787861d8.mov

I like to have 600F at least for searing.

That’s a pretty sizzle

I have to agree with Mallory here, I think the technique she mentions is worth a try. A little crunchy fat on the outside is so satisfying.

I think you need the right hardware. Got a shitty stove unfortunately. Much better with BBQ. But BBQ is always pain to clean afterwards lol.

You can make a delicious steak in a pan. Go for a stainless steel or cast iron pan properly seasoned. Let it get to a high enough temp. Sear the meat on all sides. The sear is done when it releases. So jiggle the meat if it doesn’t want to move it’s still searing. When it’s done it will just slide. If it’s a thick steak or you don’t like it rare finish it off in the oven. Or switch to burner on low and butter baste it with herbs.

One problem is I am a dude. Too much effort.

Here is what I do:

1) I throw steak on pan turn a few times.

2) Get knife to cut to see if it’s medium rare to medium.

3) Then I eat.

Get a few fucks to give. Effort is sexy.

Sometimes keeping it simple is the best approach. Dont ruin something that already works is my philosophy.

Twice is fine. And you can use a pan on the grill too

I’d go with a good bourbon. That’s how I roll
