How do you cook steak?

[King Phenomenon]

Filet mignon
Salt & pepper
Broiled well done

Served w/ potato & veggie

Pricey, but like buttah in da mouth

 

[Audie]

Cook'n is wimin's work.
So I merely specify how I want it.
And that is well done....no red inside.
But the best way to have steak is to
grind it up, mash it into patty, &
cook it til well done. Then it gets
a slice of raw onion & tomater
betwixt 2 Dave's Killer Bread buns.

Desert island, shipwreck!
Just you and me. And a lot of cows.

Learn to cook ( first catch) your
Cow- meat ( ugh) or go without

Ring in fish n oysters, make me a wok. Then
there'd be some good cooking

Simple question for those non veggie cooks, how do you cook steak.

My method is a hot frying pan, a hunk of steak of your choice, (i usually use rump or sirloin, occasionally ribeye). Seasoned with salt and ground black pepper. Just a dash of olive oil in the pan, when it starts to smoke throw the steak in.

Cook one side without moving the steak for...

1 minutes = blue
1.5 minutes = rare
2 minutes = medium
2.5 minutes= burnt well done

For thicker steaks add a few seconds if you wish.

Flip the steak over and cook that side for the same time.

Take the steak out of the pan immediately and allow it to rest for a couple of minutes before serving.

There are other methods, grilling, oven baking etc, and that's what i want to know. What do you think the best way to cook a steak to cime out juicy and tender.

Basically the same thing. I also prefer to grill mine over coal in the summer time, nothing tastes better than coal fire food.

I just broil it until it's medium rare (I like it a bit bloody and juicy), and put Jane's Krazy Mixed Up Salt and A1 sauce on it. Then eat it. The end.

Mercury, fly ash, sulfur dioxide, what notvto like in
coal smoke?

 

[Father Heathen]

medium rare (I like it a bit bloody and juicy),

Best way.

 

[Quagmire]

Other than microwaving a few beef and cheese burritos here and there, I haven't cooked red meat in years.

Back when I did, I discovered my favorite way of cooking steak while house-sitting a place where the stove didn't work but the fireplace did:

Once the fire died down I would wrap up a few cuts of London broil in aluminum foil and throw them on the coals to let them marinate in their own juices.

It would come out great every time.

I was wondering about the flavour

I'm guessing that he means
wood "coals", not actual coal.

Yes, absolutely wood coals, and not smelter coals.

Here I was figuring ya meant lignite

 

[Shaul]

First and foremost, I only cook kosher steaks. Keep it simple. Broiled with just salt and pepper added.

 

[Heyo]

Heathen

That's a compliment.
Barbarian is what comes to my mind.

 

[The Hammer]

Nope, that's apparently electricity coal.

Hey now, I represent.... I mean resent that comment.

Never made steak in a pan, only on a grill. The fire has to be nice and hot, beech wood or beech wood coal are best. I like my steak blue. Like you said, 1 minute per side and then set to the edge of the grill so the middle gets to eating temperature but not really cooked.
@Audie: fly ash is proper seasoning for steak, we call that the special ingredient.
