    Can’t just throw it on the pan for a sear and have it cook through the middle. Throw it in the oven at 250 for a bit first then sear 👍

  2. Needs a serious sear. Don’t shy away from throwing that puppy in the oven before searing.

    Wtf is this? I can’t even say this is blue it’s raw

    Try starting with the basics, room temp, dry to the touch, salt and seasoning, hot pan just shy of smoking (you should see a wisp or two, add high heat oil and same thing, lay in pan gentle pressure for contact, once a crust has formed approximately ~3 minutes turn as repeat. Remove from heat and temp if under place in preheated oven around 250 and check every 5 or so minutes based on original temp. Once within a few degrees of temp place steak on cutting board and walk the fuck away I’d say 10 minutes turn

    One thing that isn’t mentioned much, and I learned this from thatdudecancook is to not use coarse seasonings on pan fried steaks. They will lift the steak off the pan making little air pockets and not allowing your steak to get a good sear. Coarse seasonings are for grilling outside. Use fine seasonings for pan fried

    gotta get that pan ripping hot and a touch of avocado oil. make sure the steak is dry (moisture is the enemy of a good sear). if possible leave it unwrapped in the fridge overnight with some salt and the wipe it off before frying.

    That’s good though, Err on rare, you can’t uncook a steak.

    If you like it rare, it looks amazing. First attempt is better than average in my opinion, nice work.

    This was the last place I expected all the raw comments. It’s usually too done for this group. Give it here, I’ll eat it.

    Finish in oven 400 degrees for 4-5 minutes then rest 10 minutes thank me later

    You know what you’re doing if you’re trying to cook a raw steak.

    I feel the palm of my hand, then the steak. That’s usually the firmness you want for a medium-mid rare. You got the sear down for sure just let it sit in the oven

    A little surprised at the reaction here, I’m ready to dig in

    Looks raw but you will get better at cooking steak then be a pro after a couple of times don’t give up

  15. Looks like it worked, I don’t see a single stain on that beautiful steak!

    I need that smoke taste off a grill but this. This is beautiful. Best part of you can’t eat the entire thing it’s still rare enough so when you make a sandwhich on a pan or grill press and it’s still rarish

    This has to be the most positive, inclusive sub around. This steak is rare as hell but totally edible. I agree with most and that you should try a reverse sear.

    Higher heat, or longer on each side for the sear. Toss er in the oven for like 5 minutes after

    edit: also, my first few pan seared steaks turned out way worse than that

  19. KillMeNowFFS

    almost too raw for me but i’d still fucking love it

    Turn up the heat on that stainless pan. You’ve got no sear, just burnt peppercorns.
