Five Rules For a Perfect Steak

[@cr0ss0ut]

A few more tips to add, First - Always cook your steak after its warmed to room temperature.. never cook a steak straight out of the refrigerator. the cold steak will prevent it from cooking through evenly and the meat will come out less tender. Seccond - You will need a nice pan with a good weight which can help it retain its heat. i dont recommend aluminum. use a thick stainless steel like in this video. or since those can be quite expensive. you can pick up a great cast iron pan for cheap. i personally find a well seasoned cast iron pan to be the best at pan frying large steaks.

[@freakboy40]

Yeah, i was going to say this but this should be one of the tips. That's very important for even cooking. I also don't like my steak to be wet with water or condensation. I use a paper towel so you are cooking with steam...before it is seasoned prior to putting it in a pan. I have never used anything but cast iron on a steak.

[@Buskieboy]

I like to use a butter/oil mix for the pan. Very hot and then get the sear. I do believe in moving it around (not lifting it) so it picks up all that delicious flavoids in the pan. I also like to give the pan a chance to get hot again between flipping. Just 30 seconds or so and back into the pan for the sear.

[@WTFRyGuy]

Coating the steak in oil as opposed to pouring it in the pan will prevent oil splash off and burns. Also, coating the steak itself will help to hold more of the seasoning intact as well as allow the oil and seasoning to penetrate better for a fuller flavor.

[@Mauitaoist]

Never put oil on a steak that's the most disgusting stupid thing I've ever heard you put tallow in the pan or lard or ghee animal FAT NEVER "OIL"

[@pamelamorris3148]

@@Mauitaoist wrong, how many 5* steak houses you made steak in??? He should have also used a cast iron pan & rendered the fat off the sides for the pan drippings.

[@shnydtayne]

@@Mauitaoist Agreed! Cooking with oils is a horrible mistake. For cooking and heating, always use lard, tallow or ghee! Oils oxidize with the heat, and turn bitter and carcinogenic.

[@vinceamato1201]

I like the way the steak turned out! 2 things I would add to your list would be A. Room temp meat before cooking (at least 1 hour out of the fridge) B. Completely dry the steak with paper towels immediately before seasoning and cooking. You don't want any moisture to hit the hot pan. The moisture turns to steam, and steams the steak before it evaporates which I think slows the sear and crust development.

[@HelmetBlissta]

Vince Amato yes this, 100%

[@mikedoyle7300]

I thought meat starts decomposing 20 minutes after removing it from the refrigerator. It seems a little gross letting it sit out for 1 hr.before cooking.

[@markkelly3859]

Nothing like hand on meat.

[@neilmckelvie9339]

Great method. My 2c as a retired butcher. Use good quality beef (not cow) frying steak- porterhouse, rib eye- rump. Murray Grey or Belted Galloway breeds are delicious. Make sure steak is at room temp before cooking- remove from fridge a good half hour beforehand. Pat steak dry before seasoning to remove excess moisture. I always use a cast iron pan as it gives even heat. Use a high smoke point oil - avocado oil is great, get it smoking before adding steak gently to avoid a self burn. Don't over-crowd pan as meat can start to stew instead of caramalising- the maillard reaction that is required to create that nice browning. A thicker steak (25mm) is easier to caramalise the outside without overcooking the inner where the desired tenderness and doneness, as has been explained. Use an egg or kitchen timer, 2 and half minutes each side untouched gives close to medium rare (dependant on steak thickness).Half way through the first side I add a large knob of butter and when it melt baste the steak, same other side. As explained always rest the meat.

[@raquelreyes2011]

For the first time in my whole life... I just made a PERFECT medium well New York strip ( thick). Thank you.

[@marklenington]

That's cool Raquel but Medium Well is definitely far from perfect. Medium Rare is.

[@raquelreyes2011]

=D I agree... im still a rookie! I was shooting for more rare, but ended up with a perfect med well. Maybe next time. =)

[@freekvoorwinden576]

Looks good. More tips: -Let that steak come to room temperature. I personally take it out of the fridge at least a couple hours before it goes in the pan. -Pat it dry multiple times. -Get a good quality steak. Fat is your friend. The more marbling the better. -Get a steak that is even in thickness. -Get a steak that is at least 1.5 inches thick. 1.5-2 inches is even better. 2-3 inches requires some skill and special techniques to achieve even doneness. -Salt and pepper ten minutes before it goes into the pan. Use more salt then you would think. -Warm the pan to a very high heat. -Start with oil on the highest heat possible. Wait for it to almost smoke. Only then insert the steak. Obtain as big of a sear on both sides of the steak without blackening. -Do not use Olive oil, instead use Peanut Oil or Sunflower oil. They have a higher smokepoint and are more neutral. -After getting the best sear possible (thick goldenbrown crust) turn down the heat to low-medium and drop some butter in the pan, along with a few crushed garlic cloves and some fresh thime. Using a spoon, for a few minutes spoon the garlic/oil/butter/thime combination over the top of the steak, basking it. While using this technique rare and even medium rare are hard to achieve with steaks thinner then 1.75 inch. -Insert a meat thermometer like shown in the video and take the steak of the fire at around 120F (Rare) or 130F (Medium Rare) -If you have a really thick steak (around 3 inches) you can finish it in the oven at medium temperature even after doing the thime/butter/garlic trick, again, using a meat thermometer. Resting normally will have the core temperature increase by around 5F. Rest 5 - 10 minutes. Resting: Don't let the plate/scale/dish you are resting the meat on cool down to fast by for instance placing it directly on an iron or granite countertop. Use a coaster. On the other hand, don't let the resting turn into cooking by completely wrapping the steak in foil and putting it on a hot plate on a a coaster. Or worse, completely wrapping the steak and pan you baked it in in foil. This most of the time will let the core temperature of the steak rise to high. I mostly put the foil over the steak without wrapping it on a warm plate on a coaster. Keep an eye on that thermometer.

[@MrPA300]

Have been meaning to cook a steak on the stovetop for years, but was always too afraid. Followed your tutorial on a boneless NY strip and it came out amazing, even used a copper pan to sear it. Thanks, man!

[@Sushihunter250]

Basically a good description of how to cook a steak. A few minor points. Salt. Should be sprinkled from a higher height above the steak to get better coverage without too much in some spots and not enough in others. I noticed that the tip at the top got missed completely while the main body of the steak got well covered. When salting meat like this, it should be given a minimum of 40 minutes to work. I use a very course Sea Salt. I also use a heavy cast iron fry pan rather than a Stainless Steel pan - holds the heat better. Also, consider basting the steak in butter, whole garlic, and some herbs after the first flip.

[@Sushihunter250]

@John James Rambo Wow... Who pissed in your Cornflakes? If you have ever seasoned meat for cooking in your life, you would know that the standard salt to use is Kosher salt, which is very large grains. I prefer Sea salt, so I get the course Sea salt which is about the same size as Kosher salt. Also, as the juices come out of the meat in a reaction to the salt, the salt dissolves and is pulled into the meat as the juices re-absorb into the meat.

[@Sushihunter250]

@John James Rambo You can get even coverage with large grains of salt just as easily as you can with fine salt.

[@KhmerOldiesAficionado]

There are several ways to cook a good piece of steak: Sear the steak in a thick cast iron pan (and by continuously basting it with pan juice gives you that nice butter, garlic and herbs flavors). Grilling it gives you that smokiness flavors and an 'over-rated' diamond grill mark. Sear the steak in a pan then finish it off in a 450 oven, if it's an extra thick cut or if you like your steak well done. This will prevent your steak from drying out. Sous-vide (in a vacuum-sealed bag, then slowly cooked in a temperature controlled water bath, then finishing it off by searing it in a pan). I think it's more important to make sure the meat is well seared all around, and NOT over cook your steak.

[@susanbanfield6476]

I’ve Cooked lots of Various Steaks over the yrs in A Thick Cast Iron Pan, with a little Beef Dripping & Butter. One thing I all-ways do is shake some Worcestershire Sauce over them, once Cooked I make a lovely sauce with the residue in the Pan. ( I was a Scottish Beef Farmer in my Youth) ever once did I have any complaints.

[@jordanlouie9439]

good cook on the inside good, crispy sear on the outside but you should try adding some butter and herbs to the pan to baste the steak adds some nice flavor. Also use Avocado, canola or grapeseed Olive oil was burning in your pan and it gives off bitter flavors.

Wow! A lot of people hating in the comments. First of all- "doneness" is a word. It is a term that describes the desired degree to which your good is cooked. Secondly- yes that's a lot of salt because that's a thick steak. And lastly- if you season anything after it's cooked it's too late for flavored to develop. By the way, the steak looks delicious.

[@wilhelmtaylor9863]

I've watched many steak videos - yours is superior. I'd like to add my 2¢ worth: After I sear the steak I reduce the heat and cover the pan with a glass lid. This causes the pan to behave similar to an oven and eliminates the oven requirement. I use the same thermometer as you do. Works like a charm. Thanks.

[@tome4846]

Good advice in general, but I like to let the salt and pepper sit overnight, or at least a few hours. The steak will first slowly let out water, then suck it back in, bringing the seasoning with it.

Ya know, we all like things a little different from what others may go for. And opinions being different, I'm not surprised that there are a thousand different methods posted here. But Christ, folks, just because he doesn't do steak exactly YOUR way doesn't mean he's wrong. I could bring him here, cook him a prime, dry aged cut my way, and he might just say, "Nah, I like my way better". The proof is in the eating. You want a particular flavor, I want another. If it's not aged, I have to do things a bit different if I want flavor. Meaning different seasoning.

Not cast iron? Not a good start. Professionally, I can tell a steaks temp by watching blood pooling on top. Measure of doneness. How do I know? Experience. I can make better off a grill, using a cast iron skillet. Seared as seasoned, butter basted, and oven finished. No blood. MR. Medium done red pooling. M. Well done, clear. Not hard to see. Grill marks a better tell. A skillet steak by temperature probe. About 120 a good start. 🙂👍👍

[@garman1966]

If I have a thick piece of pork or beef I often cut openings in the meat at about inch intervals. It makes a sort of braided look, but allows the water to escape from the cooking, searing the meat more than steaming it. I'll open up the 3-4 inch cuts that are spaced about an inch apart occasionally at the start of cooking to make sure they haven't closed up preventing steam to escape. The cuts don't let the juices out because their surfaces, if done the way I do with pouring on extra hot oil get seared like the outside of the meat. That's just my method of pan cooking thick meat. On a grill with good radiant heat I wouldn't do that. I do this mostly with pork, but a thick steak in a pan with no oven around it works too.

I pretty much do everything he mentioned except the finishing in the oven. Only kind of steak I would do that with is a London Broil because they are so thick. With anything else putting a lid on your pan will suffice. This allows you to keep all that heat in so it cooks the inside while searing the outside. 3 minutes each side, rest for 5 minutes, perfect medium rare.

[@thomasbuttny732]

Many of the comments are spot on. I have two to add. First, while seasoning the steak decide the side that's the presentation side. Best side usually is pretty obvious. That is the one you search first. Second, a good steak will have a good amount of fat on the edges. When the pan is hot and using tongs render the fat for a minute or two. Then you can cook it in it's own fat. Way better than oil out of a bottle.

I love cast iron for steak....it's frankly the best indoor pan. I'd still put some oil in the pan though.

The firmness finger technique is very helpful, thanks.

Dude you're killing me get a cast iron!

[@kellycharris72]

scoo2000, I agree, but was impressed how well his turned out in that pan! 😄

[@Kamal_AL-Hinai]

Why what difference it makes?

[@chesterpuffington8368]

You did a nice job on that beef chef, it was cooked perfectly!

[@phillwilkes7764]

Oil first on steak not in pan. Very lightly season steak after oiling.

[@sothathappened]

season lightly if you like light seasoning. if you like more seasoning then have at it. there's no "one size fits all" where it comes to taste.

[@cordialspirit]

The classic rules are well summarized in your video but there is one more that needed to be mentioned at the end, cut the steak against the grain.

[@nukeyourhouse]

The ending was fantastic. The color of that steak after you cut it was nothing short a beautiful. My only issue that I saw was the oil you used in the pan. Best use a low smoke point oil, or best, clarified butter. You could probably get away with no oils. Just because low smoke point oils will add a bitter flavor to it once it burns (Starts smoking) Which I assume you are using olive oil, which is a big no no for anything with heavy heat. All that being said.... I'd eat the hell out of that steak. You keep doing you, my beef brother.

To Aris Psaltis since the comments are disabled.........".6)Causes taste sensation and satisfaction of hunger". Because when your walking off your dietarily correct dinner and get runover by a truck. We'll raise a T-bone to your perfectly healthy, slender, pristine...........corpse. No days are promised to us my friend. Be less afraid of death, and let others live the way they want to without preaching the fear. Enjoy whatever you choose (diet etc.) and be happy, afford others the same privilege.

My dad cooks T-bone steaks to perfection, we have it about once every two weeks. He was a food buyer for a commercial kitchen, know the butchers to get the good stuff. Thick cast iron skillet on maximum heat, smoked up our little home kitchen for hours. T-bone steak so good, never had better and the surrounding translucent fat was the best. His kitchen didn't want chicken wings (the old days where they didn't have a use for it) so he takes it home, five or ten pounds at a time. Those wings were so good (fat and skin) with herbs and spices right out from the broiler. Those were the days we ate a lot of meat and used butter everywhere. Know better now, maybe a steak once every few months, lot more veggies. Don't eat as well but live longer - it's a trade off.

[@mycolortv1]

like my father would say, the meat closer to the bone taste the best

You're father is a truly wise man. 😊

Um no garlic?? it brings out so much flavour and isnt it too charred?

Misspell any other word in the English language, but NEVER spell “steak” incorrectly; it is a rule that must be observed. 🥂

When you sliced that steak at the end, that's when I knew it was delicious, for sure.

lovely I will be doing this with my Omaha Steak...thank for the info ..

[@bcask61]

I would never use that much oil. Also, cast iron is preferred to steel or copper, and that pan was a bit small for that steak.

[@user-fgfg4hh]

That finger trick.. well done my friend. and amazing video. helped me cook an amazing steak!

[@dirtymikentheboys5817]

I like all this talk about meat eating. Native Alaskans ate 97% meat based diet. My ancestors had a blood and meat drinking for all meal during dry season. (7 months) not to mention we evolved to eat meat, the European style grain diet, has brought diabetes, obesity, and maybe asthma to my people. Are eyes are designed for the hunt. We have endurance. (very good endurance, we can out jog a wolf) . And we make tools. Which is almost exclusive to predators.

[@NovocaineTV]

Except you dont have COWS in ALASKA do you.................There is a huge difference between meat from a cow and meat from a moose or anything else in the world...

[@chaoticB81]

Europeans have some of the best life longevity in the world. Diabetes, obesity and asthma, is hardly an issue in Europe in comparison to the United States. The problem is processed food loaded with a plethora of preservatives and other bizarre ingredients that brought ailments to "your people." Blame the big food companies and the consumer for buying from them.

[@excelsciors]

I prefer using a cast iron skillet!

[@joebaxley1503]

Can't beat a good cast iron skillet.

[@yadin232]

I like the way you díd the steak. they only Thing i would do diferent is the resting process. you need to leave it unwraped and on a rack. since if you wrap it like that it gets sweaty from the steam and looses the crispy sear
