Is it worth the effort to broil a steak in an oven high or low?



10 methods of cooking



Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to broil steaks. For a 3/4-inch steak, it will take six to ten minutes to broil. For a 1-inch one, it will take twelve to seventeen mins. You can determine when your steak has reached the desired doneness by using an instant-read thermometer. Your preference will determine whether you prefer your steak medium or well-done. For both types of meat, the recommended cooking time is 6-10 minutes.

To cook steaks well, start with room temperature steaks. To prepare your broiler for broiling, heat it to 550°F. Season the steak with 1/4 teaspoon dry mayonnaise, half a teaspoon garlic powder, one teaspoon of seasoning salt. Add a few grinds coarsely-ground black Pepper if you wish. Place the steaks about 8-10 inches from the heat source. After the steaks have been cooked through, turn them upside down.


simple cooking tips

The stovetop is the best way to cook steaks. This step can be done in a cast iron skillet or regular skillet. Make sure that the skillet is preheated so that it's ready to place the steaks on it. Sprinkle half of the salt and pepper evenly on the steak. Then, sprinkle the rest of the salt over it. Place the skillet on the broiler, and cook the steak for one more minute.


Make sure your steaks are room temperature before broiling them. They may seize and affect the final product's tenderness if they aren't. Raw meat shouldn't remain in the fridge longer than two hours. It can harbor dangerous bacteria growth. This can be avoided by removing the steak from the fridge at least 30 minutes before you cook it. Once the steak is fully cooked, cover it and let it rest for five minutes before serving.

If you are grilling steaks, it should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit. USDA recommends medium rare steaks should be cooked at 160 degrees F. Place the steak on the top rack of the oven. Then, move the steak to the stovetop and place it below the broiler. At 125 degrees, a steak is considered done. If your steak is still undercooked you should remove it from the oven and let it rest for 10 mins before cutting.

Allow the steak to rest for 15 minutes before you serve it.
