How do you cook steak indoors?

Question

There T-Bone

Answer 1

That's just un-American. Brave the cold and fire up the grill.

Answer 2

There are many ways to cook steak indoor, even a T-Bone, but I prefer the Broiler when no grill is available. I would marinade the steak with my favorite sauce for about an hour, place the steak on a broiling pan, place the broiling pan about 2 inches from the heat and cook on each side about 6 minutes. Enjoy!

Answer 3

Under a hot Grill - we would call that a Salamander professionally in the UK.. Take it US cookers come with a grill - heat comes from above?

* ah, found out thats what you call broiling.

If not, then in a skillet/frying pan - dry pan, oil the steak instead of the pan.

You want the grill/broiler as hot as possible (a frying pan maybe medium/high) - season the steak with salt and pepper and brush with groundnut or a light olive oil.

10 minute Golden Rule (approx 3/4 to 1 inch thick steak)

Steak should be out of the fridge for a half hour to bring to room temperature.

Rare (bloody) - 2 minutes each side, rest for 6 minutes in a warm, not hot place. You don't want it to cook while resting.

Medium (pink) - 3 minutes each side, rest for 4 minutes

Well Done (unthinkable) 4 minutes each side, rest for 2 minutes..

Always, always, always rest meat.. Adjust to whatever thickness you have - obviously if it's thin, cook it for less and vice versa.

Account for the fact that when it rests it will continue to cook.

As any cooking it's trial and error based on the Golden Rule.

Marinades ruin a good steak (but can be ok I suppose), learn to make proper sauces - bernaise, red wine, etc.

Answer 4

Pan fry or use the broiler

This is very similar to what I do.... it's very simple and delicious. Also, you can add garlic or a marinade... which I do sometimes, but with a T-Bone the steak itself produces enough flavor without having to add other things (just my thought).
RECIPE: Pan Seared T-Bone
1 1/2 pounds bone-in T-bone steak
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon canola oil

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. A half-hour before cooking, remove steak from refrigerator.

Heat a large skillet over high heat. Pat steak dry and season generously with salt and pepper. Add oil to hot skillet and when it begins to smoke add steak. Reduce heat slightly and cook steak until browned, about 4 minutes on each side. Transfer skillet to the oven. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted sideways into the steak registers 120 degrees F for medium-rare, about 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes. Cut steak from the bone and carve meat across the grain.

General cooking methods:
PAN BROILING (SKILLET)
Use a well seasoned cast iron skillet, or a non-stick heavy fry pan. Pat the meat dry. Use a rub if desired. Lightly coat the pan with oil. Have the pan very hot; the meat should sizzle instantly when it hits the pan. Sear well on both sides, turning with a tongs. Reduce heat and continue cooking until steak reaches target internal temperature.

BROILING
Broiling is similar to grilling except the heat is generally from the top. This allows for the basting sauce to be directly exposed to heat when broiling less tender cuts. A bit of sugar in a rub or sauce will char just a bit for great flavor. Tender cuts can be broiled without prior marinating or basting.

Answer 5

Well I usually marinate them with a teriaki marinade overnite, then set the oven to 450. Put the steak on a cookie sheet with tin foil on it. I like mine medium rare so I cook them about ten minutes on each side. Cut into them to see if its done to your liking. If you dont have a teriaki marinade you can use soy sauce garlic salt, and season salt.

Answer 6

Cook them on a grill pan or a skillet on med-high heat just as you would on a grill. Make sure to season them, because you won't be getting the char-broiled taste.

Answer 7

Rub butter and spices to taste on both sides and broil in the broiler to desired doneness. Yum!

Answer 8
