You called me pal, that makes us buddies.

A seared juicy steak is great, but its different. Kind of like how you can cook a potato ten different ways.

NEIN!!

Cast iron is oven proof; a non stick pan is not. (Unless it says it is oven safe, but it seems like a bad idea.)

Cast iron skillet was the second purchase I made for my food prep...after my grill (which has cast iron grills!)

Once seasoned properly....mmmmm!

* Rub both sides of steaks with a little olive oil and generously season with salt and pepper.

* Add steaks to hot skillet and cook in oven until well browned on bottom, 8 minutes.

* Turn steaks and cook in oven on second side, 5–6 minutes for rare, 7–8 minutes for medium rare.

* Remove steaks from skillet and set aside to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

^+1 This is the perfect way.

bbq is the ONLY way... 7 min each side nice n bloooody

karliejai · 06-15-2011, 09:59 PM

Peter Luger, wolfgang, striphouse... they all cool their steak by

1) rubbing it with olive oil
2) seasons with salt and pepper
3) use a broiler and char both side to crisp
4) and cook it with a lower temperature til desire temperature
5) let the meat sit for 3 - 5 minutes
6) slice the meat off the bone and serve...

You shouldn't, with the heat you need to get the pan for a good sear, you can actually get the teflon to breakdown into your food in all but the most high end cookwear..

Go to the sporting goods store like Academy or something that has an outdoor section and get a seasoned pan, only like $25..

However the all time best "Apartment" solution to cooking perfect steaks is this.. And before anyone laughs, I also have a 1000deg infrared grill as well, and this thing turns out steaks better than most of the people you know can make in about half the time..

You're using the wrong oil if you are having smoke issues. Stop using Extra Virgin to cook with smoke point is too low in first press oils. Extra light olive or canola is your best bet. Some like the flavor of grape seed oil as well, but I am not a fan... Right oil = much less smoke and you don't look like a no talent chef in your own kitchen..
