I thought that was a given. But yes, steak should be room temperature when you start to prep it for cooking.

Posted by: squeak52
Achronos you forgot a key part in the steak making process!

You must allow your steak to get to room temperature before you place it on the grill. It is much more tender and flavorful.

If you don't, well, you have no idea what you're missing out on.

Never cooked a steak in my life. Very tempted to grab one on friday (payday) to test out some of your little techniques.

Steak should be rare to medium-rare - a warm red center.

Never again. Not after I threw up and passed out in a toilet.

Actually, we have some Omaha Steaks we're cooking up Wednesday. Just got the shipment of wine I ordered when I was in Italy, so we're going to be all fancy.

you are all forgetting about McCormick steak seasoning, that stuff added on really kicks up the flavor a notch

YES. This a million times!

I even put a little bit of the seasoning on the steak when it's all ready to eat. It's just so good.

Make sure you look back to steak 101 if you do.

Steaks 101:

Take your steak out, rub it down vigorously with loads of salt, freshly ground black pepper and olive oil. Leave it to stand. Don't worry about excess, this comes off when cooking.
Heat up a pan to as hot as you can physically get it without it catching fire
Cook your steak for approximately two minutes (or to taste) on each side, turning once.
This is the important bit: Leave your steak to stand for five minutes before you eat it. This is the difference between an average steak and a -blam!- good steak.

If you must insist on sauce, then a creamy pepper sauce is the only way to go. Sauces are meant to compliment the meat, not stick to it and overpower it with the taste of sugar, tomatoes and vinegar. If your intended condiment is coming from a bottle, just stop now and donate the steak to a worthier cause.

-blam!-, now I really want a steak.

where the hell are the culinary masterminds? NO LOVE FOR BLUE CHEESE?
Cheese? On a steak? Good lord, you're worse than the ketchup brigade. Leave cheese to the foods that it improves, like chicken.
You are doing it oh so right!

Favorite way to have a steak: Marinated overnight in a teriyaki sauce. It tastes amazing this way. Harder to do with less fatty cuts of meats though (they are thicker).

Feel free to send me messages, please be willing to wait 6-8 years for a reply.

1-7 hours if you at least tried to make it readable.

Immediately if you are Yax, Telec, or legendary.

Never if you are mythic, you guys smell funny.

Steaks a need to be slightly burnt, tough and hard to get into, none of this wimpy butter cooking.

What are you, women?

Whaaaaa?!!??! Cooking steak is my one of my favorite things to do. Next to trying different chicken marinades it can be quite the exciting cooking. I, personally, prefer to leave a steak plain or marinade it in beer. The beer is only a London Broil though.. you can't marinade a top steak if you want good steak.

The more I say Chang the more asian it sounds.

Heck, sometimes I get sick of them since I'm a waiter at a steakhouse. Otherwise, I like mine done medium rare.

You need to take your steak out of the Cryovac wrapping at least an hour before cooking. There are bacteria in there that help preserve the meat. But that bacteria affects the flavor. Being exposed to the air will kill it.

What if the cows had taken a whole heap of antibiotics before getting sent to the butcher? ;]

I have my meat well done with a side of deep-fried chips. I never have (or will) have any sort of vegetables with meat (except potatoes for obvious reasons)

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

You can have your Bungie steak...I had a New York Strip yesterday, and it came out perfect, with its own juices and some BBQ sauce.
