I like to keep it simple.

Filet, Ribeye, or T-Bone

Lots of Cracked Pepper & a Little Kosher Salt.

High Heat and cook it Medium to Medium Rare.

Sometimes I will pour a little butter/garlic blend on there.

Olive oil, fresh crushed black pepper and kosher salt.

I watched a TV food program the other day and the chef at a top steakhouse (name escapes me) used the ingredients above, but put them on after the steak was cooked.

I also only use cracked pepper and kosher salt. But lately I have been pan searing (really high heat) for about 2-4 minutes in light olive oil and then finishing them in the oven (6 minutes or so). When they are done I will lightly coat with butter.

I have really started liking this more than the traditional grill.

I don't eat steaks at a restaurant, because I like to cook my own. So far everyone who has ate mine, have said they are the best.



I find some nice Top Sirloins and some zesty Italian salad dressing.
beat the crap out of the meat...
pour the dressing in a bowl
dash some Tony's and squeeze some fresh lemon and lime in a the bowl.
grind some fresh ground pepper in the bowl.
a couple of dashes of Worcestershire sauce, and a peeled and smashed up orange

marinade for at least 12 hours
------------------------------

arrange coals on the BBQ pit on one side
get coals white hot and put steaks on the other side.
slooooow cook to order

2 minutes before taking off off grill brush on some Dale’s Reduced Sodium sauce with garlic butter ( a melted blend in a bowl from the microwave )

serve each steak boiling hot and with a smile!

I've seen family and friends in my backyard with weak knees and pure delight from eating my steaks.

Marinade at room temp a bit of L&P and tony's for 10 min a side.

Grill to medium rare, cover in melted butter if desired.

olive oil, cracked pepper

then i switch it up between:

grilling on a hot gas grill and basting with garlic and butter to med-rare

or

searing in a black iron skillet (1-2 min per side), then moving to the oven, bake for 10 min, then let sit, covered for 5 min. comes out med-rare and stays very hot while your eating

I use salt and pepper, that's it. A little oil for the pan. I heat my cast iron skillet in the oven, then put it on the stove top once its real hot. I cook both sides of the steak for a few seconds, and then I put the steaks and skillet back in the oven. Cook for a few minutes, then turn the steaks, then cook again for the same amount of time. Then you take out the skillet, and let the steaks sit lightly covered with foil for another few minutes. Comes out med-rare.

I can't remember where I learned this, but its real good. Only takes about 5 minutes total.

the same for a filet or strip. if it's my good cast iron pan i don't need any oil. If it's not, i'll use a tiny bit of canola oil (much higher smoke point than olive oil).

for a ribeye or sirloin i will play around with flavors and marinaded much more and experiment. Been on a big salt, pepper, lemon, oregano kick on the gill.

eta: prime beef high end cut = rare. others = medium rare.

do you think cows don't have steaks?

or do you eat tofu

the bulls are just too damn agressive to get them to stand still to get the meat

Or preheat a cast iron skillet under the broiler toss in the seasoned steak and cook about 5 minutes. Don't turn it. Take it out of the skillet, put a drizzle of olive oil on it and allow it to rest on a warm plate.

Just pickin' at ya', Texas. These steaks we speak of are coming from steers,castrated males , that are usually under 16 months old. If we do happen to chow down on a female, she , too, will be of the same age and called a "heifer." If you're eatin' cow, it's probably from a can of beef soup.

im just screwing around too

i like a nice thick 1.5-2 inch ribeye that has been littly rubbed with montreal steak seasoning and seared on open flame then cooked until the meat is just slightly more tense than the space bettween thumb and finger on open hand (medium rare)

sereve with a room temp red
some grilled asparagus
and a potato

yum

and yes I know what a steer is
