today what we're going to be doing is
cooking a steak I'm gonna show you how I
cook a steak it's probably one of the
best ways that I've found to cook a
steak it's real simple
what we're going to be using is a large
cast-iron skillet
this is a 12-inch skillet it's a pretty
nice utensil for cooking just about
anything I cook a lot of bacon and eggs
and these skillets but it makes a great
steak as well what you want to do is
take in pre-heat your oven to 350
degrees also get your steak out of the
package and washed up as you can see
I've got mine laying here just rinse it
off real good out of the packaging
and in my opinion folks the best
seasoning that you'll ever do on a good
mouthwatering juicy steak is just plain
old salt and pepper I just lightly salt
and pepper each side of it but once you
get it out of the packaging and rinse it
off
be sure and Pat it dry that's one good
thing that way you won't have so much
sizzle and flare-up in your skillet when
you're cooking but one way to test your
cast-iron skillet to see if it's ready
is get it on the stove I set my stove on
high and get the skillet as you can't
well you can probably see a little bit
of it there it's starting to smoke a
little bit but one way to test the
skillet to see if it's ready once it's
hot is its or just a little bit of water
in that you see how that just simple
once the water completely evaporates you
know your skillet is ready to cook now
the reason why I use cast iron cast iron
is a skillet that will allow heat to
cook uniformly on not only in the middle
but all the way around all the sides
it's the most universal cooking utensil
that you'll ever use and I just love it
I use a lot of cast iron but anyway once
you get your skillet ready and you've
got your oven preheated to 350 degrees
you've tested it with water you've got a
little bit of water splashed
there it sizzles up and evaporates then
what I take this is just oh it looks
almost like a coffee pot actually my mom
had one of these matter of fact this is
hers and all it is it's just a grease
catcher and of course the only kind of
grease that I use is the best kind of
grease and that's bacon grease and bacon
is the best way to season a cast-iron
skillet so once you cook a lot of bacon
in your skillet ought to be completely
seasoned and ready to go we'll talk
about that in another video hopefully
but anyway once we've got our skillet
ready we've tested it with water or you
want to do is just take an add just a
little bit of bacon grease in there
enough to get it around on the skillet
folks be sure and use some kind of oven
mitt or something like that so you don't
burn your hands please skillets are hot
and we get our skillet hot cut your heat
back to probably about medium high and
then once you have that ready and you're
greasing the skillet just taking lay
your tape and skillet and you'll hear it
start to sizzle
everybody what we're going to be here
and we're gonna share this state for
about two minutes on each side and so
just let the state continue to cook
there as you got it in a skillet for
about two minutes and once two minutes
has elapsed and then two minutes time is
up what you want to do we just take this
skillet off of the stovetop and we're
gonna just add that fill it and take it
all into the oven and your preheated
oven for 350 minutes or 350 degrees I'm
sorry and we'll turn our stove us a
little kiss you later on flour my wife
would have a fit wish but anyway once we
do that we let it sit in the oven for
approximately four to five minutes and
once you do that you take that staking
out and you let it rest on another paper
plate or a towel or whatever just take
them out and let them sit there for
about four or five minutes and once
you've let those rest for about four or
five minutes then you can take and cut
into it and I'm gonna tell you folks
that's probably one of the best
mouth-watering steaks you'll ever eat so
just doesn't recap take your cast iron
skillet put it on the stove heat it up
till it's real hot smoking hot drip a
little water in it to see if the water
will evaporate once it evaporates then
you want to take an add just a little
bit of grease your favorite goal it
could be collar bowl or bacon grease I
use a lot of bacon grease because that's
one of the best grease as I've found
that I like anyway that's just
my preference and then once you get your
skillet greased you take your steak you
have your onion your oven preheated to
350 degrees and you take your steak
rinse it off and everything get it dry
pat dry season it with salt and pepper
lay it in your skillet let it sear on
each side for two minutes to two and a
half minutes
pull your steak flip it over on the
other side let it sear for two or
two-and-a-half minutes and then you want
to take the whole skill at stake and
everything and put it in the oven and
let it bake for about five minutes then
you pull that oven and steak out of the
skillet and the steak out of the oven
and put that on a plate and let it rest
for about four or five minutes once you
let it rest this is your end product and
folks I'm gonna tell you what this is
one of the best tasting mouth-watering
steaks you'll ever enjoy well we
