Cooking a steak to perfection is an art form that requires attention to detail, the right tools, and high-quality ingredients. With this recipe, you’ll learn how to create a perfectly seared, juicy steak that will impress even the most discerning palate. By using a flavorful rub from Le Rub Français and the Meat it 3 wireless meat thermometer, you’ll achieve steakhouse-quality results right at home.
Ingredients:
- 1 high-quality steak (ribeye, sirloin, or filet mignon)
- 2 tablespoons of your chosen rub from Le Rub Français
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste (optional)
Instructions:
Prep the Steak:
- Start by bringing your steak to room temperature. This helps ensure even cooking.
- Pat the steak dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture, which will help achieve a better sear.
Season with a Flavorful Rub:
- Generously coat both sides of the steak with your selected rub from Le Rub Français. These expertly crafted rubs combine a variety of herbs, spices, and seasonings to enhance the natural flavors of your meat, adding depth and complexity to every bite.
- Allow the steak to sit with the rub for at least 15 minutes to let the flavors penetrate.
Preheat Your Cooking Surface:
- Heat a grill, cast-iron skillet, or heavy frying pan over high heat.
- Add a tablespoon of olive oil and let it heat until it begins to shimmer.
Insert the Meat it 3 Probe:
- Before placing the steak on the heat, insert the Meat it 3 wireless meat thermometer probe into the thickest part of the steak. This will help you monitor the internal temperature accurately throughout the cooking process.
Sear the Steak:
- Place the steak on the hot grill or pan. Sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until a golden-brown crust forms.
- Use the Meat it 3 app to monitor the steak’s internal temperature. Flip the steak once the first side is seared.
Cook to Your Preferred Doneness:
- Continue cooking the steak until it reaches your desired level of doneness:
- Rare: 125°F (52°C)
- Medium-Rare: 135°F (57°C)
- Medium: 145°F (63°C)
- Well-Done: 160°F (71°C)
Rest the Steak:
- Once your steak reaches the perfect temperature, remove it from the heat. Let it rest for 5-10 minutes. Resting allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring each bite is as tender and flavorful as possible.
Serve and Enjoy:
- Slice your steak against the grain, serve it up, and savor the perfect combination of a juicy interior and the robust flavor provided by your chosen rub.
