Follow the manufacturer's instructions for broiling steaks. A 3/4 inch steak will take 6-10 minutes to broil. A 1-inch steak will take 12-17 minutes. A digital thermometer that can read instantaneously will allow you to tell when your steak's done. Your preference will determine whether you prefer your steak medium or well-done. Either type of meat should be cooked for six to ten minutes.
Start with room temperature steaks to cook them well. 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. If desired, add a few grinds of coarsely-ground black pepper. Place the steaks 8-10 inches away from the heat source. Turn the steaks halfway through cooking.
The stovetop is the best way to cook steaks. This step can be done in a cast iron skillet or regular skillet. Before you place your steaks in the skillet, make sure it is preheated. Spread half the pepper salt and salt evenly on the steak. Next, sprinkle the remaining salt over the steak. Place the skillet on the broiler, and cook the steak for one more minute.
Make sure your steaks are room temperature before broiling them. You could risk a seize that can affect the tenderness and quality of the steaks. Raw meat shouldn't be kept in the fridge for longer than two hours as it can harbor harmful bacteria growth. Avoid this problem by taking the steak out of the fridge 30 minutes before it is ready to cook. Once the steak is fully cooked, cover it and let it rest for five minutes before serving.
To broil your steak, ensure it reaches 145°F. USDA recommends medium rare steaks should be cooked at 160 degrees F. This can be done by placing the steak onto the oven's top shelf. Move the steak over to the stovetop, and then place it below the broiler. A steak is done when its internal temperature reaches 125 degrees. If your steak is still undercooked you should remove it from the oven and let it rest for 10 mins before cutting.
Cook your steak in the oven for 3-4 minutes each side to get a juicy cut. Place the steak on a rack, and let it rest for ten minutes. The steak should be served at room temperature. It should be soft to the touch with a crust. You should cook the steak to medium rare at 125 degrees or medium rare at 135 degrees. Allow the steak to rest for 15 minutes before you serve it.
