I need a crash course in steak. I love steak but I suck at cooking it and I don't know shit about selecting cuts of beef. Anybody have some advice or can recommend a source so I don't fuck up another nice piece of meat?

Hijacking this thread, how do you cook it like in OP's picture?

I want my steak medium-rare throughout, not medium on the outside and rare on the inside.

Get a good heavy cast iron pan, make sure its really hot. When you cook the steak, flip it regularly. Every 15-20 seconds is ideal. This ensures even cooking throughout and still provides a nice sear on the steak, as long as the pan is hot.

That is only if you like a crust on your steak and or like it more than rare.
Both gay options IMO

You can still cook a rare steak this way, but if you dont like a crust then its probably not the best method.

How would you prefer to cook a steak?

My guess is you're 14 and your mother has overcooked it your entire life.
