🥩 Step 1: Choose Your Cut
Go for quality cuts like:
- Ribeye (juicy & rich)
- Sirloin (lean but flavorful)
- Filet mignon (super tender)
🌡️ Step 2: Bring to Room Temperature
Take your steak out of the fridge 20–30 minutes before cooking.
👉 This helps it cook evenly.
🧂 Step 3: Season Generously
Salt + black pepper is enough.
(Optional: garlic powder or herbs)
🔥 Step 4: Heat the Pan (Very Hot!)
Use a cast iron pan or grill.
Add a little oil and wait until it’s smoking hot.
🍳 Step 5: Sear the Steak
Place the steak down and don’t move it.
- 2–3 minutes per side → Rare
- 3–4 minutes per side → Medium-rare
- 4–5 minutes per side → Medium
- Longer → Well done
👉 Flip only once for best crust.
🧈 Step 6: Add Butter & Flavor
In the last minute, add:
- Butter
- Garlic
- Fresh herbs (thyme or rosemary)
Spoon the melted butter over the steak.
⏳ Step 7: Let It Rest
Remove from heat and let it rest 5–10 minutes.
👉 This keeps the juices inside.
🔪 Step 8: Slice & Enjoy
Cut against the grain and serve.
🔥 So… What’s Your Number?
Be honest:
👉 3–4 (juicy & tender)
👉 5–6 (balanced)
👉 Or 9–10 (fully cooked, no pink)
❤️ Final Thought
There’s no “wrong” way—only what you enjoy.
But one thing is certain:
👉 A perfectly cooked steak… done your way… is one of life’s greatest pleasures.
Tell me your number—I can already tell a lot about your taste 😏🥩🔥
