I sear on very high heat (so high, I open kitchen window). I then flip on otherside to sear. Now, after seared, you can eat at rare, meduim, etc depending on how long you leave it in the pan.
Searing holds in moisture and tenderizes.
I marinade in olive oil and seasoning for a few minutes.
I hate ugly weakass looking pale steak from not searing.
Oh, the cut matters too. Some cuts are just cheap and tough by nature.
You want some good marbling. The marbling would help with the tenderizing.

How you doing it? Grill, broiler or fry pan? Gotta heat up the pan before you throw in the meat - this is something to keep in mind for sex as well.
Rub it with olive oil both sides and salt and pepper. Or sometimes I let it sit in teriyaki sauce a little while if it’s not as good a cut of steak.
Surface has to be hot to sear on one side, but turn it down. To medium after a minute or two. Once the top starts to look like it's being cooked. Flip it to sear on the other side but don't leave it on as long. If you touch it and it's springy it's still a little rare inside. The firmer it gets to the touch (get your mind out of the gutter) the more cooked it is. DO NOT CUT INTO IT to see if it's done. That's for amateurs!
I use a frying pan. A cast iron skillet at that. Sometimes the griller. I put seasoned salt, pepper and meat tenderizer. I let it sit in the fridge for hours before I cook it.
I taught my kids how to cook steak. I'm done cooking everday unless I want to. It was the easiest quickiest thing I could teach them to cook.
So, I was laying in bed last night smelling the aromas of steak cooking. I smiled and was pleased to see that I had taught them well. Sigh of relief, the cooking "monkey" is off my back.

I wont even eat a sous-vide steak because of this. How do they cook it first then sear—? NOPE!! I can't get past the look of it
I usually grill mine. Make some whiskey marinade
(1/4 cup Olive Oil. 2 tablespoons Evan Williams Honey Whiskey. 2 tablespoons Soy Sauce. 1 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce. 1 tablespoon Balsamic Vinegar. 3 clove Garlic (smashed) 1 tablespoon Ground Black Pepper. 1/4 teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper Flakes). Let it marinade overnight.
Over cherry wood. Let the grill get to 140 degrees and grill it for 4 minutes on each side for medium steaks.

Depends on how you like your steak prepared?
Med rare?
Medium?
Medium rare is about 6 minutes per side. No longer
Medium is 8 minutes per side
This is on a 1” steak. Thickness matters
His problem is toughness and dryness.

Get a good cut of meat...most important thing. Salt the meat way more than it seems like you should. Sear it for about 3 minutes each side, unless it's thin. That should do it.
Anything g less than $ 14.99lb is not a steak.
Course salt. Olive oil. Garlic. Grill OR pan.
Can’t go no wrong.
Or for real carnivores grill as is and salt and pepper after....grrrrrr
Don't cook with a lot of heat.
!!! Cast iron skillet.
Marinade your steak with your favorite spices and ingredients.
Olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic, bit of homemade spicy paprika sauce
***Don't rush it.

A very easy method I do is put a blend of the seasonings you want on the raw steak. Then smack the fuck out of it with a tenderizer. That really helps make it tender. If you really want to be fancy look up some easy to make marinade, and let it chill in that shit for a night. Or longer if you want. Get the pan really hot, then throw some butter or oil in it. Then quickly sear both sides of the steak, and eat it. Practice a few times till you perfect the method, or add your own twist to it over time. Eventually you will have it down to a science. You can grill it too, which makes it even better imo.
The first key to preparing great steak is getting quality meat!
I prefer new york dry-aged ( or really anything type of dry aged steak)
or grass-fed Kobe from my local high-end grocery store which was founded by butchers....
so in your case I would go to a meat shop/butcher!
Step 2- i only every prepare my steak on a grill - so
preheat a gas grill to 400 degrees
(takes about 45 min to an hour to get up to temperature)
step 3- sprinkle garlic salt or Santa maria seasoning on both sides of the steak
step 4- rub butter on both sides of the steak
step 5 - lightly grill char a couple of chillis ( jalapenos or serranos will do ) and green onion on your grill to season the grill before placing the steak down
step 6 - place steak on grill and continue turning and basting/rubbing with butter on each side as it cooks
move the steak around/watch for flare ups and adjust accordingly
Note* FAT IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE ...so this process will frequently cause flames to rise well above the grill plate
step 7 - cook to medium rare on both sides ( about 135 degress in terms of internal temperature)
step8 - place on a bed of freshly chopped green onion to rest for at least 10-15 minutes
step 9 - ENJOY!!!!

Does anyone have advice on picking a jug of milk that doesn’t end up tasting weird?
Regardless of what store I go to or what brand I buy, the milk either tastes like it’s sat out in heat before being put in the refrigerator or just tastes like plastic.
Change my mind.
How do like it?
Post up how you like your pizza.
I have acid reflux so any pizza with tomato base sauce is out. So I like pizza with alfredo or garlic based sauce. Like chicken alfredo pizza.

I'm beginning my cutting cycle and thinking of giving this thing a half-hearted try. I don't believe in diets so I'm still gonna eat my vegetables but drastically cut down on carbs.
Anyone try?
I’ve been keto since August of last year, any other keto people on here? Lost loads of water weight and leaned up from burning fat stores.
What’s your go-tos for carb-less snacks, and do you do your macros or just count the net carbs?
Open to hearing ideas and tips! I'm hosting game night twice a month at my home and want to keep the foods I serve fresh, new, and yummy.
Thanks in advance!
