RESTAURANT METHOD STEAK .

 

 Try cooking your steaks using The Restaurant Method.

Everyone loves grilling, and of course you can get a great steak that way. But there’s another way — The Restaurant Method — and it’s a dead-simple way to get a perfectly cooked steak, indoors, year round. And that’s something that any steak lover who lives in a true four-season climate can appreciate.

The Restaurant Method is easy:

1. Sear the outside of the steak in a pan.
2. Roast the inside of the steak in the oven.

Here’s how to do it:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 °F.
2. Preheat a big pan on medium-high heat. Use a grill pan if you want char lines; otherwise any large pan will do.
3. Add a tablespoon of organic butter to the pan; let it melt and swirl it around to coat the pan.
4. Sear each side of the steak in the pan for 2 – 5 minutes; peek underneath to know when to flip. You want it brown but not black (i.e., burnt).
5. If you like your steak rare to medium rare, you can often stop here. Just check the internal temperature of the steak with your meat thermometer (see above).
6. If you like your steak medium to well done, put it in the oven on a small rack over a baking sheet lined with tinfoil to roast for another 5-15 minutes. (Again, with the meat thermometer, you’ll know exactly when to take it out.)
