Cooking the perfect steak

an hour per inch of thickness....

I'll try it. But it sounds like overkill. I put enough salt on them they look white for the 30 min.

Anyone else have a huge appetite the day after having steak for dinner? I always feel like I need a huge breakfast the next morning.

An hour is a long time to salt them. Depending on the thickness, I do 30-35 min max for 1.25" ribeye.

I do 20-30 minutes a side depending on time.

We had the Hawaiian ribeye at Hillstone/Houstons last night. Those steaks were great.

You obviously haven't read the entire thread.

I cooked some steaks the other day and salted them for a hour before i started cooking them and it made a big difference.

secret seasoning.

Whoa! Damned hypocrite, any other time you don't like secrets!!!

I just put my Outback Steakhouse seasoning on it. I have a buddy at Outback that gave me a 5lb bag of their secret seasoning.

Another +1 for Sprouts. I found some prime New York Strips on sale for $4.99/lb a while back. Let's just say we ate a lot of steak that week....

I usually buy choice and use the salt method if I can't find any reasonably priced prime cuts. We usually buy strips, ribeyes or sirloin. I think sirloin tastes the best IMO when done right.

Haven't had a good steak in a while though. My wife is pregnant and can't have anything other than well done steak so she'd rather not have steak at all. Funny thing is, she used to ONLY eat steak well done until I converted her.

I don't think bernaise should be grouped into the A1 sauce type category so you are safe on that one.

Filet Oscar FTW!

no, I hear ya... I had just never tasted such awesomeness! LOL

it's unhealthy at best, but it's fucking delicious!!!!!!!!

I got my recipe off of FoodTV's website

get some GOOD white wine vinegar, some fresh tarragon, and a decent white wine...

we found a good pinot grigio vinegar, so we typically buy a decent bottle of pinot for the recipe

I was always of the mind that steak needed no sauce. Then I tasted the filet w/ bernaise @ mortons!

I will definitely be salting my next steaks for an hour or so after reading this thread

[GhostTX]

I let them sit out for an hour or two and then I brush them with olive oil, and then give them a pretty good coating of sea salt and garlic pepper, just to make a tasty crust when they are cooked.

This is what I do. Sometimes mix up the seasoning, but usually just salt.
