so my dad bought a bunch of loin strip steaks home for no reason.

i've never dealt with steaks
what's the secret in not fucking them up?

[Anonymous No.3727643]

don't cook them until they're brown all the way through

don't use any seasoning but salt and pepper

[Anonymous No.3727646]

For steaks about an inch-1 1/2 inches thick, slap them in a super hot pan for ~3 min a side, then let rest covered with foil for 10 or so.

KISS

Steaks taste great on their own and they don't take long to cook. 2-3 minutes a side on the grill and simple flavorings: olive oil, kosher salt, and peppercorns.

Leave them out until they reach room temp then cook to your desired doneness.

You'll need a a skillet. If it's not oven safe, you'll need something to cook the steak on when you put it in the oven.

Let them sit on the counter for an hour or so before cooking.

About 15 minutes before you start cooking, preheat your broiler if you have one. If you don't, heat your oven to it's highest setting.

Salt and pepper the meat. Use a lot of seasoning.

Put a pan on the stove on medium high heat. You may want to use a little oil, but it's not necessary. Let the pan get hot. Put the steak on.

You want to sear both sides quickly, but make sure you get good color on it. That nice brown color. Maybe a minute or two on each side.

Move the steak to the oven. The time depends on the thickness of the steak and how well you like it done. It doesn't take very long, maybe 5-8 minutes. Keep in mind that the steak will continue to cook after you take it out, so try to take it out of the oven earlier than you might think you should.

Let the steak sit for at least 5 minutes before cutting or serving it.

Good luck!

Your average storebought striploin isn't very thick so you can cook them "black and blue" really quick and easily. There's no reason to use the oven unless you're cooking really thick steaks or you can't bear the thought of a raw/rare middle.

They don't even have his shows on reruns anymore. The new generation will not know of Mr. Rogers and how kind he was.

you ever want to get mad as hell, google "Mr. Rogers Fox News."
They attempt to lay the blame for said screaming spoiled shits on him, and say that he was bad for kids, because he said they were special.

Except, y'know, what he said was "You're special, just like everyone else. You matter, and deserve respect, but you have to give it to everyone else too."

which is the opposite of their crass bullshit.

so mad.

I always get angry at that, but I don't think Mr. Rogers would want me to be angry at them for being stupid fucks so I guess i just fume quietly.
