How to make the PERFECT steak!

My Fiance has perfected the art of making a steak to the point where I refuse to order steak out anymore knowing I can have better steak at home.

Here are some tips!

🥩 Always let your meat come to room temp before throwing it in the pan!! This will help with cooking evenly!

🥩 Seasoning-for a good cut of steak you should only need the OG 2 seasonings… SALT AND PEPA season before putting it in the pan!

✨ Special guests at the end

🥩 Make sure you’re choosing a steak that has good MARBLEING. This will make for a more flavorful steak!

🥩 BASTING- we like to baste our steak with butter rosemary and crushed garlic for the last 3 minutes of cooking.. trust me don’t skip that part!!!

🥩 REST- make sure you are giving your steak a good couple minutes to rest after taking it off the heat! This will allow the steak to retain the moisture, for a nice juicy steak!

Let me know if you try any of these tips and how they work for you! ♥️

... Read moreCooking the perfect steak involves a blend of science and art. Start by choosing the right cut, such as ribeye or filet mignon, known for their excellent marbling which enhances flavor and juiciness. It's crucial to let the steak reach room temperature before cooking, as this promotes even cooking throughout. Season generously with salt and pepper just before cooking to develop a flavorful crust. Basting is a game changer; using butter, aromatics like garlic, and herbs like rosemary enhances the flavor profile of your steak. A great tip is to baste during the last few minutes of cooking to infuse rich, buttery flavors while keeping your steak moist. After cooking, allow your steak to rest; this step is often overlooked. Letting it sit for about 5-10 minutes helps retain juices, making every bite tender and full of flavor. For an extra layer of deliciousness, consider finishing your steak with a touch of compound butter infused with herbs or garlic. This not only adds flavor but also gives your steak a beautiful glossy finish, perfect for impressing guests at your dinner table. Try these techniques to take your steak cooking skills to the next level!
