Okay, assuming that the steak weighs 8 ounces AFTER cooking, and you eat the entire steak, including any fat, and lick the plate afterward, you will TEMPORARILY be 8 ounces heavier. Think of it this way - if you step on a very sensitive scale and then someone hands you the steak, the scale registers the difference. By eating it, you're just holding it internally.
However, you body will process the food and eliminate much of the mass. If you burn the same amount of calories as you took in, your weight will be unchanged. If you burn fewer calories, your weight will increase, and if you burn more calories, your weight will decrease.

Unless you eat it raw, it will weigh much less than 8oz when it has been cooked.

not quite, you will burn some calories in eating it.
That's why celery and lettuce ought to be banned for environmental issues, you use more energy eating than you get from the food.
