How To Cook A Perfect Steak



- Always let your meat reach room temperature. This assures it will cook evenly.

- If cooking in 2 stages (grilling then oven) be sure to start with a hot pan, AND pre-heat your oven to 450. It may seem very hot, and it is. You don’t want to steam the meat, you want to roast it.

- Be generous with your salt and pepper, the meat can take it.

- Only turn the meat over once, this again helps with even cooking. And NEVER squeeze the steak down on the pan, this doesn’t cook it quicker, it does however release all that beautiful juice.

- Sear approx. 90 seconds per side then slide into your pre-heated oven. To reach medium with a 1 inch thick steak you’ll roast it for around 5 minutes.

- ALWAYS let your meat rest for 5 minutes. It wont get cold, don’t worry about that. By resting the juices redistribute throughout the steak giving it that gorgeous even pink shade that steak restaurants create so well.

- Trim both the tenderloin and sirloin off the bone. Slice in 3rd of an inch pieces. Enjoy on its own or with a dollop of your favourite mustard!
