How to cook a great fucking steak.

/Thread

1) First, get some steak.

Ribeye is the easiest not to fuck up.

Waygu takes it to the next level.

If you can't afford Waygu ribeye, learn to code.

2) Get some tallow while you are at it.

Waygu tallow turns mediocre steak into great steak.

3) Take your shirt off.

That's how it's done.

4) Dry off the steak and cover it liberally in salt.

Regular sea salt.

Let it sit at room temperature for a bit.

5) Heat up your cast-iron pan and get some tallow in there.

Use lots.

Don't let it get so hot that it smokes, but just below that.

If you don't have a cast-iron pan, rethink your entire life.

6) Dry the steak off again and add more salt.

I like to use this stuff at this step.

7) Throw the steak in the pan.

If you literally throw it, you'll probably get burned quite a bit by splattering oil since you aren't wearing a shirt.

About 60 seconds, then flip.

Make sure to move the pan around so you enough tallow under the steak when you flip.

8) Add whatever other seasonings you want.

Maybe some garlic powder or Montreal steak spice.

Wait another 60 seconds then flip again.

Now cook another two minutes per side.

Obviously season both sides.

A few spoons of the juice from the pan poured over the steak helps.

I don't have a picture that makes sense for this so enjoy this picture of a hot babe smoking a cigar on my balcony.

10) Take the steak off.

Let it sit for a bit.

Now pour the juice from the pan into a bowl for dipping.

Be careful not to spill it all over your hands cus it will really BURN THE FUCK OUT OF YOUR HANDS if you do.

11) Pair your steak with complementary sides.

I prefer whiskey or water.
