There is something I recently learned and simply must share with you about cooking the perfect steak! I’ve spent years trying to perfect a steak on a BBQ pit, and that can take up to an hour to cook. Therefore, I finally learned how restaurant-quality steaks are cooked. Granted, I don’t have a commercial size grill like the restaurants have, but this can be done at home.
Prepare the Steak
First and foremost, you need to start with a good cut of steak. The better the cut, the better it will be. It needs to be around 3/4” thick and then thawed to room temperature. Then season it. (Salt, pepper, whatever you like)
Get Ready to Cook
Second, get a cast-iron skillet HOT! You want medium-high heat, then add some butter or cooking oil (just enough to cover the bottom of the skillet). Then wait for the butter to melt, or let the oil get hot.

Third, toss it in the pan and DON’T touch it. Flip in 4 minutes (Use a timer! This is important!). Lastly, flip and cook for 4 minutes on the other side, and again, DON’T touch it.
Conclusion
You can have a restaurant-quality steak that is seared perfectly on the outside in only eight minutes. Additionally, this locks in the juices and cooks them to medium well on the inside. Just one reminder, the skillet MUST be HOT! Slow cooking on a BBQ pit just lets the juice run out and will make a tough steak. I have experienced that tragedy enough times to know.
For the Die-Hard Grill Fans.
Alright, guys, I know there are tons of people out there that just have to crank up the grill. I have the solution for you too! This recipe does not HAVE to be cooked on a stove. You can reproduce these same results by placing your skillet and frying pan directly over the burner on your grill. Just be careful with the grease and don’t start a fire!
