Title: Tips for preparing steak
Post by: BiGHer on March 02, 2012, 04:30:15 PM
I have a 1 inch thick, 10 oz, Sirloin steak... No grill available, but stove top and over are... Any reccomendations on how to cook this?  I have a few different ways that I like to, but I'm looking for some new suggestions... Steak is defrosting now

Sear and then finish in oven

1) Leave steak out for about 30 mins.  to get it to room temp
2) Pre-heat oven to 500deg
3) heat cast iron pan.  use a little olive oil, get it to near smoking
4) pat steak dry, then use favorite dry rub....then rub a little olive oil on it
5) sear the steak approx 75 sec per side
6) bake in oven for about 5 mins, take out and let rest for about 4 - 5 mins

easy as that....nice and medium rare....bake for less if you want more rare.  DO NOT cut into it to see how done it it.

If you had NY strip, I would suggest searing for 2mins on the fatty side first...draws flavor up into steak

No, I don't.  The steak is in a vacuum pack right now.  I do have plenty of tupperware for ice and cold water, but I'm not sure what' you're thinking...??

this is not the way to do it

getting olive oil to smoking point  on cast iron... this will completely cook the steak in minutes

get a regular skillet

butter

heat till butter is brown on MEDIUM flame

sear steak 1 minute on each side

put steak in oven at 450 degrees for 3... this will take a 1 inch steak to rare

also, put sea salt and coarse black peper on steak, los and lots of it, liek a layer of it on one side, leave other side untouched

If I were you, I`d put the steak in the Fridge and go out and get a digital Instant Read Thermometer.  You can get them around 10 bucks or so at any grocery store.  There is no point in playing a guessing game with valuable meat.  Its a complete waste actually.

You can do the palm test, but its totally inaccurate.  Your goal should be perfectly cooked meat 100 percent of the time.  Why wing it?

Just horrible.  Bringing Olive Oil to a smoking point is an absolute NO-NO precisely because it has a very low smoke point and when it hits that point, it turns instantly rancid, producing incredibly off flavors.

If you want to ruin your meat, follow this morons advice.

Post by: apply85 on March 02, 2012, 05:30:55 PM
lol, doesnt know hwo to cook a steak without a thermometer

i swear to god people must be retarded

there's a good reason no one uses this method to cook in the kitchen, on paper it makes sense, in reality its not that simple to use a thermometer

if after 3 minutes in the oven, adn this is after searing, u are not sure if it is cooked... push meat down with ur finger, if it pushes back even a little put, it is done

u ask adonis how to cook a steak and he says go buy a meat thermometer, the loser never cooked a steak in his life thats what that means
Title: Re: 10 oz Sirloin cooking suggestions... Chef Adonis, care to chime in??
Post by: apply85 on March 02, 2012, 05:32:14 PM
no, it will pretty much taste the same smoking point or not, it will stink up ur apartment but the taste is not the problem with oil smoking

especially on cast iron, this is just too high a temperature,it will cook the srewak all the way through in minutes
Title: Re: 10 oz Sirloin cooking suggestions... Chef Adonis, care to chime in??
Post by: Nails on March 02, 2012, 05:34:30 PM
steaks that thick i only cook on the weber grill and use indirect heat to cook it after searing it ....

Oven pan cooking i tend to only do Think sliced Steaks... i say you coat the pan with Olive Oil on high flames (season steak with Salt and Pepper), sear it on one side for a min or flip it over and turn heat down to medium and let cook for 10min or til its done to your taste
Title: Re: 10 oz Sirloin cooking suggestions... Chef Adonis, care to chime in??
Post by: The True Adonis on March 02, 2012, 05:34:52 PM
1. Make sure you pat your steak COMPLETELY dry. You want it as dry as you can get.
2. Heat 1 tbsp Vegetable Oil Medium High Heat until just smoking. DO NOT LET IT SMOKE or you will have to start over.
3. Cook Steaks 3-5 Minutes Per side until well browned.
4. Check Temperature with Digital Thermometer and remove from heat at 120 degrees.
5. Tent with foil for 10 minutes. DO NOT CUT INTO YOUR MEAT for 10 Minutes.


There.  Should be easy enough for a pefect sear and pefectly cooked steak.

http://bbq.about.com/od/grillinghelp/a/aa061607a.htm

You put a skillet on the stove, pour in a couple of tablespoons of oil, turn up the heat and the phone rings. A few minutes of distraction and you have thick, black smoke billowing out of your skillet. What happened? It was only oil. You hadn't even started cooking yet.
What happened was that you hit the Smoke Point for that oil. The smoke point of oils and fats is the temperature when it breaks down and fails as a lubricant. When oil breaks down it forms a whole host of bad things, including stuff that can give you cancer. There are also things in that broken oil that will cause foods to stick and that taste very bad. Knowing how hot the oil you are using can get will help you avoid the Smoke Point. Below is a list of the most popular oils and fats.

Nails, if I had it my way, I would always cook my steaks on a grill... indirect heat is also a great move.

like i said

salt pepper steak

brign to room temp

butter on skillet, medium heat until butter is brown

put steak 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side

into the oven 3-5 minutes 450 degrees

no fucking thermometers needed, 3-4 minutes for 1 inch thick steak = rare, 4-5 for medium rare, 5-6 medium, 6-7 throw in the garbage because u ruined it

A Thermometer is what any restaurant worth its salt or any chef or cook worth anything uses for meat, custards, candy, chocolate, breads, cakes and on and on.

I just season all of my steaks with salt and pepper, throw it on a hot griddle to sear the meat and finish it off broiling it in the oven in its own natural juices.

Steak is tenting.

Not sure why so many people here have an issue with the meat thermometer.  Yeah, you can do a good job without one, but many a top chef use them... My father is an excellent cook and uses one with most meats.  When preparing a meal kitchens are usually a very active place and thermometers take out the guess work and make sure the meat is cooked properly while allowing you to cook side dishes, etc without worrying.

There.  Should be easy enough for a pefect sear and pefectly cooked steak.

this. but without the thermometer  :)

you can also cook it in salt free butter. then whilst the steak is resting. use what's left in the frying pan to make a sauce with single cream andmushrooms or whatever you like.

No, searing is not through the broiler....searing involves a direct contact to a heated surface.  When you have encrusted steak, they will sometimes put it under the broiler to cook the topping

here op. a great recipe here  :)

Grilled Ribeye Steak with Onion-Blue Cheese Sauce

(http://i.imgur.com/Wi8aR.jpg)

Good grief.

Help me.

Help me now.

This was delicious.

Good steaks do not need sauce. But they’re every bit as delicious with a good sauce as they are on their own. And as much steak as we eat in our household, I like to change things up. This sauce is actually almost a “side dish”—substantial and delicious.

You’ll absolutely love it.


(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2437/3882575117_b4a7e4da33.jpg)
Grab a large onion. Very large.

(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2489/3882575387_77b6054cd5.jpg)
Cut it in half from root to tip…

(http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3663/3882575655_5331c6ac87.jpg)
Then peel off the outer layer and make relatively thick slices. Not huge, but definitely not thin.

(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2607/3883368608_bae7355908.jpg)

(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2500/3883368956_343e5abac3.jpg)
Melt 1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) butter in a heavy skillet over high heat.

(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2545/3882576543_6197596de3.jpg)
When it’s all melted…

(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2602/3882576809_8c99681405.jpg)
Throw in the sliced onions.

(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2424/3882577435_7f6ac8cdfa.jpg)
Stir them around, then let them sit and cook over high heat. Stir them only occasionally; we want them to get nice and brownish/black.

(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2609/3883370592_4b9caa7d82.jpg)
Meanwhile, grab a ribeye steak—whatever thickness you like.

While the steak cooks, go ahead and make the (very easy) sauce.

Turn the skillet with the onions down to low heat…

(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2659/3882581053_bd066c1b25.jpg)
Then pour in 3/4 to 1 cup heavy cream.

Ask for forgiveness while you’re at it.

Heat it all up…

And stir it gently as it cooks. Slowly the white cream will take on the color of the caramelized onions and your soul will sing.

(http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3467/3883376500_88c06b6177.jpg)
You want to cook it for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the sauce thickens and reduces by about half. If it gets too thick (it shouldn’t), you can splash in a little beef broth.

(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2234/3882583875_96bab09f99.jpg)
Ahhh. Perfect.

(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2668/3882584865_191fa4b8f7.jpg)

why you getting so vexed over this?  thermometers are widely used these days for cooking meats. been meaning to get one myself actual. i wouldn't it for cooking a steak though, lol.

i dont know what u mean by u saw someone

thomas keller made a vid sous viding steak

but he would never do this in a restraunt

why?

steak is amazing from restaurants point of view, its done in 10 minutes and either sear/oven or broiler happens to cook it perfectly

while to sous vide it it would take half hour, not to mention wrapping it in plastic, which means it has to be cooked before hand, but this can not be done with steak... when steak is cold and uncooked, it retains moisture, once u bring it to the temperatures of cooking it starts to push out water, even if its wrapped in plastic, the water will go between plastic and meat, but it wont be inside the meat

also there is a problem in regards to health protocols in the united states, food is not allowed to be kept at room temp after its cooked, has to be either cold or hot, so sous viding a steak in the morning to be fired and served in dinner is not a possibility unless u specifically train staff to break the rules,adn this of course happens but not all chefs have th eballs to break rules this way

adonis wants to be god of cooking or something, lol can u believe how much effort the retard puts into looking for pictures and recipes? its funny to me thats all

good guy?

he doesnt cook anything

in another thread he said searing a steak then putting it in broiler is a way to cook steak, BROILER SEARS STEAK, if u put it in seared it will buuuuuurn

anyone who uses theromometer to cook steak = rtard

Uh, you made that up.  Nobody ever said that.  Please post the quote where you claim this is said.

The broiler method after searing is an ancient trick.  Great one nonetheless.  Sous Vide with a reverse sear produces the most consistent results however.



i spent two minutes to help uunderstand ta is nothing but a liar

and krank, what exactly dont u understand?

go sear steak then put it in broiler

it will burn

broiler put the surface of the steak next to high temp, this carmelizes surface, which is also why u sear a steak. u understand now?

Grilled Ribeye Steak with Onion-Blue Cheese Sauce

(http://i.imgur.com/Wi8aR.jpg)

Good grief.

Help me.

Help me now.

This was delicious.

Good steaks do not need sauce. But they’re every bit as delicious with a good sauce as they are on their own. And as much steak as we eat in our household, I like to change things up. This sauce is actually almost a “side dish”—substantial and delicious.

You’ll absolutely love it.


(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2437/3882575117_b4a7e4da33.jpg)
Grab a large onion. Very large.

(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2489/3882575387_77b6054cd5.jpg)
Cut it in half from root to tip…

(http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3663/3882575655_5331c6ac87.jpg)
Then peel off the outer layer and make relatively thick slices. Not huge, but definitely not thin.

(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2607/3883368608_bae7355908.jpg)

(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2500/3883368956_343e5abac3.jpg)
Melt 1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) butter in a heavy skillet over high heat.

(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2545/3882576543_6197596de3.jpg)
When it’s all melted…

(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2602/3882576809_8c99681405.jpg)
Throw in the sliced onions.

(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2424/3882577435_7f6ac8cdfa.jpg)
Stir them around, then let them sit and cook over high heat. Stir them only occasionally; we want them to get nice and brownish/black.

(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2609/3883370592_4b9caa7d82.jpg)
Meanwhile, grab a ribeye steak—whatever thickness you like.

(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2520/3883371000_d7ce479042.jpg)
Heat up the grill outside, or be lazy like me and heat up a grill pan. Add lots of butter so it’ll get brown.

here is the reason bad cooks really like the idea of sous vide

to them it seems like there is no way to fuck it up, it brings the meat to exactly the temp u want

so they think, oh obv then people use it in restaurants

no, good cooks have no problem cooking a steak to the temp they want using traditional methods

big big problem with sous vide is the length of time it takes to cook something with it, that is a lot of time for the protein to push out water, too long to really use it for a steak, i tried it personally on a steak and it didn't go well, first because it dries out the meat, second because u have to sear it after which will bring the temp higher. in other words if u want a rare steak seared using sous vide, u have to calculate what effect the searing will have and sous vide it not to fully rare, but just bellow rare

Can I tell you something? This was so good, I almost cried. The medium rare steak was good enough…

regarding recipe, u cant use phrases like large onion, that's not hat matters, what matters is what type of onion, and that is a vidalia onion which is the sweetest kind and is therefore best for this recipe. u can get two small vidalias or one big, it doesnt matter the size

Of course size matters you moron.  Onions come in all sizes and if you do not have the correct size, your ratios will be way off and your finished product will either be too saucy or way to onion-y.

And the Texas Grano 502 is the Sweetest Onion you can find, not the Vidalia, although I do love a Vidalia.

i spent two minutes to help uunderstand ta is nothing but a liar

and krank, what exactly dont u understand?

go sear steak then put it in broiler

it will burn

broiler put the surface of the steak next to high temp, this carmelizes surface, which is also why u sear a steak. u understand now?

I didnt say that it wouldnt burn if you broiled it.....but searing is placing the item you want to cook ON a surface.

If you have been in the rest biz, you know what an executive chef is right?...also, this guy was a personal chef for a family in Napa Valley.  I think I will take what he says due to his experience...

lol yes i know what executive chef is, tell me which restaurant, not all places hav ean executive chef

anyways, even gordon ramsey instructs people to oversear steaks. u dont need to have a quarter inch of grey meet at the surface, u just need to carmelize it, butter is best for that, and it can be done at medium heat, u essentially want to do it at the lowest heat that u can in order to have as little grey well done meat in there as u can

ta im telling u i know ur a little fraudster who googles shit all day, whatever the fuck onion u said was the sweetest u got from wikipedia or something, but vidalia is the sweetest onion that almost all restaurants use

and no size doesnt matter, what matters is how much onion u put in there, like i said 2 small onions or 1 big will give u samea mount of onion, what matter is which type of onion, u know what would happen if u used red onion for that recipe? lol

Ok adonis is wrong. The man can cook but hes wrong here. You never use a thermometer for cooking steak. The reason you never stab a steak because you need to keep it sealed for it to cook correctly..  Corre,t method.
Rem po ve steak from vacuum pack packaging 2 hours before cooking. When the steak is cold the fibers crisscross like a thread and hold the meat firm and tough. You cook a steak fast so if its left cold then it will not have time to relax and will stay tough. You need to let it slowly get to room temperature and you will notice the meat turn from purple to a.bright red colour as the fibres oxygenate.  Now season.  Heat a grill too 400-600 degrees.  Wait till grill is very hot then place the steak and do not move it, you should only flip once.  Steak cooking time will vary on thickness and quality of the vrill.  Leave to rest one cooked. Then place on a seperate plate.  Enjoy.  Academy, craft and master butcher trained mlc milton keynes 2001.  Thankyou.

the actual reason for not stabbing steak is because you don't want bacteria from the outside getting in the bacteria free inside .

Not exactly anything to worry about as the moisture loss is next to minimal or none if done correctly.  Kenji, who runs the Food Lab has tested this as have many others.

Poking with a fork to turn the steak is a completely risk-free move

(http://www.seriouseats.com/images/images/110318-more-steak-food-lab-poking.jpg)


Poking

Watch a Johsonville Brat commercial, and you'll be told that poking with a fork is one of the cardinal sins of sausage cookery, and they're right—a sausage has an impermeable casing for a reason: to keep all of those rendered fats and juices right in there with the meat. Pierce it, create a hole, and you'll see a fountain of golden juices spring forth like out of a kid after a long car ride. A steak, on the other hand, has no such casing to protect it, so is it ok to poke or not?
I cooked two steaks of known weight side by side. The first, I carefully turned with tongs each time. The second, I used a fourchette de cuisine (that's fancy-pants for one of those two-pronged forks) completely indiscriminately, mercilessly (though not excessively) poking the steak this way and that as I flipped it. Afterward, I weighed both steaks again. The result? Exactly the same weight loss.

Poking with a fork to turn the steak is a completely risk-free move.
The thing is, with steaks, moisture loss is due to one thing: muscle fibers tightening due to the application of heat and squeezing out their liquid. Unless you actually manage to completely pierce or slash these muscle fibers, the moisture they lose is directly proportional to the temperature to which you cook your steak. A fork is simply not sharp enough to harm muscle fibers in any significant way. Yes, you'll see a minuscule amount of juices seeping their way out of the fork holes, but it's a really negligible amount. Indeed, that's why the many-bladed tenderizing tool known as a Jaccard is able to tenderize your meat without causing it to lose any excess moisture—it separates muscle fibers, but doesn't actually cut them or open them up.
What about that most-shunned of techniques, the old cut-and-peek? Surely, actually slashing a cooking steak open with a knife and looking inside is going to have a detrimental affect on it, right?

Even slicing won't release too many juices.
Well, yes and no. Yes, a knife actually severs muscle fibers, allowing them to leak their contents to the outside world. But the amount of moisture loss is really very minimal. Cut-and-peek too many times, and you run the risk of shredding your steak. In reality though, one or two peeks won't really be detectable in the end product.
But there's a bigger problem with the cut-and-peek method: It's not accurate. Because of the fact that juices get squeezed out quickly from hot meat, when you cut into the center of a still-hot steak (like one that's sitting in the pan), it'll appear to be much rarer than it really is. If you continue to cook your steak until it appears right by the cut-and-peek method, it'll be overcooked by the time you actually eat it. That thick steaks continue to rise in temperature even after being removed from the pan.
What does that mean? It means that if you haven't yet, you should go out and get yourself a good, accurate digital thermometer, duh!

Yum.
Now that is a steak worth fretting over!

Even slicing won't release too many juices.

Ok adonis is wrong. The man can cook but hes wrong here. You never use a thermometer for cooking steak. The reason you never stab a steak because you need to keep it sealed for it to cook correctly..  Corre,t method.
Rem po ve steak from vacuum pack packaging 2 hours before cooking. When the steak is cold the fibers crisscross like a thread and hold the meat firm and tough. You cook a steak fast so if its left cold then it will not have time to relax and will stay tough. You need to let it slowly get to room temperature and you will notice the meat turn from purple to a.bright red colour as the fibres oxygenate.  Now season.  Heat a grill too 400-600 degrees.  Wait till grill is very hot then place the steak and do not move it, you should only flip once.  Steak cooking time will vary on thickness and quality of the vrill.  Leave to rest one cooked. Then place on a seperate plate.  Enjoy.  Academy, craft and master butcher trained mlc milton keynes 2001.  Thankyou.

Flipping once is also a HUGE HUGE MYTH.

Flip as many times as you like.

MYTH
3. When Grilling, It's Best to Flip Just Once in the Middle


Common backyard know-how dictates that burgers and steaks should only be flipped once, half way through cooking. But has anyone ever bothered questioning why we do this? Does it actually create a noticeable improvement in the way your meat comes out?
Turns out the answer is an emphatic no! Flipping your meat multiple times produces meat that's noticeably more evenly cooked (there's about 40% less overcooked meat in a burger flipped every 15 seconds vs. one flipped once), browns just as well (just don't expect distinct hash marks), and to top it all off, ends up cooking in about 2/3rds of the time. Faster and better? You betcha!
Moral of the story: if you see your buddy doing that multiple flip thing, don't get on their case. They're doing good.

Actually, I just read a tip from a chef that says letting a steak come to room temp before cooking and then just prior to cooking you put in freezer for 5 mins supposedly will keep it most juicy.

I also agree about the flipping...the school of thought is constant flipping will keep the 'juices' evenly distributed.....

some things about steaks i wil clear up, notice i dont copy and paste shit from howtobbq websites either, this is from experience

searing does not lock in anything, to sear is to carmelize the surface to give it a good flavor, thsi should be done minimally, as most of the adice in thsi thread will lead to a quarter inch of gray overcooked meat. u want as much pink tender meat as possible, so sear on medim heat and only just enough to sear, and butter is best for carmelizing, so use butter

resting a steak has less to do with juices, then the steak continuing to cook. if u cook as steak to rare, and cut into it immediately, it will actually be slightly blue, not quite cooked

if u want steak to be AS JUICY AS POSSIBLE, these are the steps

cover steak in kosher salt for a few hours

take out steak, clean off all salt

bring to room temperature, this way the steak cooks for as little time as possible

pan sear minimally, medium heat and with butter for 1 minute one ach side max

into the oven it goes at 450, 3-4 minutes if its 1 inch thick

let rest covered for 10 minutes, continues to cook here, juices will come out here not stay in, u can add this juice to a gravy or something

u will have as juicy steak as possible this way

THANKS, ya'll! I've never giving the thought of cooking a steak any consideration other than tossing it on the BBQ for a few minutes on each side, but thanks to you all I now know why the butcher gets pissed off when I complain each and every week.

I always accuse him of selling us bad steaks.

Haven't had a chance to read all this cooking input, but I do plan to do so and give each method a full fledged try and possibly apologize to the butcher.

Here in LV a good T-Bone will cost anywhere from $4.99 to $12.00 a pound and much much higher at Whole Foods where I think I saw steaks at $27.00 a pound.

What's the price of T-Bones in your area?

cover it in kosher salt for a couple of hours, but before u cook it remove all salt from surface

No, but I have to respectfully disagree with your assessment that you can't have a tasty steak grilling it.  Using a charcoal grill with some hickory chips always adds a nice smoky flavor to the meat and if you brush it with some olive oil, it will keep the steak moist and juicy. 

I don't like adding too much stuff to my steaks and I definitely don't like using butter as it interferes with the flavor.  Salt and pepper is all you really need to bring out the natural meat flavor.

Oh no, you can have a perfect steak while grilling.  Its just a different flavor of course.  I wouldn`t say either one is better, just different.  Totally depends what you are in the mood for.

Steaks are probably the easiest thing to cook well and I'm surprised there is so much debate / lack of knowledge here.  Every man should be able to cook a nice tasty steak even with cheap meat.

As a getbigger I like to fry up some bacon in a cast-iron skillet then sear my steak in the bacon grease.  The concept of searing "locking in the juices" (oh brother) is faulty, it just gives the surface a nice texture is all.

My current "technique" for grilling steaks is very simple:

Lightly olive oil both sides of steak
Coat both sides of steak with fresh ground pepper and coarse sea salt
Grill directly on charcoal flame for 1-2 minutes.
Give a quick quarter turn (thread now bb related) and grill for 1 more minute.
Flip steak and grill for 3 more minutes.
Pull steak from grill and apply small pat of butter (I usually roast a little garlic and make garlic butter).
Put steak in face hole (no homo).

This is exactly how I do mine.  A couple of things though.  Take the steak out of the fridge about 1 hour before cooking, and let it get up to room temp.  Then dry it thorughly before rubbing with olive oil.

Step 1 is your failiure right there.  Olive Oil is NOT what you want to use for cooking something on super high temps like a steak. Olive oil has a poor smoking point and will taste bitter at the temps you want to cook with.  Steak should use a neutral oil with a high temp like canola.

I usually only have olive or vege oil on hand, but I'll try some canola.....good tip!

Now, one tip for you:  change your username.

This is exactly how I do mine.  A couple of things though.  Take the steak out of the fridge about 1 hour before cooking, and let it get up to room temp.  Then dry it thorughly before rubbing with olive oil.


Usually my steaks are room temp by the time they hit the grill, but I've never purposefully dried them off before oiling/seasoning....will do, thx!

Guess you never heard of the maillard effect.  Some of the best steakhouses in the US have chefs that prop a thermometer in to make sure it is purrrrrfect.
