THE CORRECT WAY TO REVERSE SEAR A STEAK
The ideal steak is tender, juicy, and flavorful. The reverse sear method allows you to achieve that perfection every single time. The process is simple: All you do is cook gently over indirect heat, then sear over high heat. High heat causes muscle fibers to contract and squeeze out moisture. You...

Steps:
- Season steaks generously with either coarse salt and pepper or your favorite steak rub. You can do this step several hours or even a day in advance.
- Preheat an oven or smoker to between 225 and 275 degrees. A lower heat setting will yield a juicier steak because the heat is gentle, but it takes much longer to reach the desired internal temperature.
- Drizzle the steaks with a thin layer of oil and place them on a metal rack set inside a cookie sheet to catch drippings. If you're using a smoker, you can set the steaks directly on the grilling rack. This allows airflow and keeps the exterior dry. You'll need that to achieve a good crust when you go to sear it at the end.
- Insert an oven-safe thermometer in the meat at the thickest point and place the meat in the oven or smoker. You'll need to know where the internal temp stands throughout the process to avoid having to constantly open the door and prick the meat with a probe. Pull the steaks when they reach about 15 degrees below your target temperature.
- For a final target temp of 125 degrees (rare), pull from oven at 110 degrees. For a final target temp of 130 degrees (medium-rare), pull from oven at 115 degrees. For a final target temp of 135 degrees (medium), pull from oven at 120 degrees.
- Let the steaks rest on the counter while you pre-heat a frying pan over high heat. Add a drizzle of oil and swirl to coat the bottom. When the pan is smoking hot, lay the steaks down and sear for about 30 seconds on each side. At this point you can add herbs and butter and baste the steaks for more flavor.
- You don't need to let the steaks rest because they were cooked so gently in the oven. Don't feel guilty about digging right in!
- *If cooking bear or hog loin, you'll want to make adjustments so that the final target temp is 165 degrees, which means you'll take it out of the oven at 150 degrees. For a thick turkey breast, you want to aim for a final temp of 155 to 160 degrees and remove it at 140 to 145 degrees.
GRILLING THICK STEAKS - THE REVERSE SEAR
Steaks 2 inches thick or more generally don't respond well to traditional grilling over high heat. The outside and layer below it tend to be heavily charred and dry by the time that the center reaches the desired temperature (unless you are a black and blue fan). The reverse sear brings the steak up to temperature slowly over low indirect heat, allowing the meat enzymes to work their magic. The steak is then grilled at high temperature to get the appropriate crust.

Steps:
- Season steak generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
- Place wood chips in the smoker box of your gas grill according to manufacturer's instructions.
- Preheat one side of the grill to about 250 degrees F (121 degrees C).
- Place steak on the cool side of the grill. Cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads about 100 degrees F (37 degrees C), 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer steak to a plate. Brush with olive oil and cover with aluminum foil.
- Increase heat on the grill to 600 degrees F (315 degrees C) by turning both burners up to maximum.
- Cook steak until crust forms and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 125 degrees F (52 degrees C), about 3 minutes per side. Transfer steak back to plate. Cover with aluminum foil and let rest before serving, about 5 minutes.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 225°. Season steak generously with salt and pepper. Transfer steak to a wire rack set in a sheet tray and roast for 50 to 55 minutes, until internal temperature of steak is 125° for medium rare. (If you prefer a more well done steak, adjust timing as necessary for temperature.)
- In a medium cast iron skillet over medium-high, heat oil until almost smoking. Add steak and cook, flipping once, until a deep golden crust begins to form on both sides of the steak, about 1 minute per side.
- Reduce heat to medium low and add butter, garlic, and rosemary to the pan. Using a kitchen towel, carefully grip the skillet handle and tilt towards you so that the melting butter forms a pool at the bottom of the skillet. Using a spoon, continually baste butter onto steak to form a deeper golden crust. Make sure that the rosemary and garlic are submerged in the butter; this will help their flavors meld together. If the steak has any excess fat around the sides, use tongs to hold up the steak on its side and render out the fat.
- Transfer steak onto a cutting board and let rest about 10 minutes to lock in the juices.
- Slice on a bias against the grain, sprinkle with flaky salt and more pepper.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F.
- Season all sides of the rib-eyes liberally with salt and pepper. Place on wire rack-lined baking sheet. Bake until the desired internal temperature is reached, 105 degrees F for rare, 115 for medium rare and 125 for medium, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. When the rib-eyes come out of the oven, tent loosely with aluminum foil while preheating the skillet.
- Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil, then sear the steaks on the first side for about a minute. Flip the steaks and add the butter to the skillet. Once the butter has melted, continue to cook the steaks, continuously basting with the melted butter, until seared on the second side, about 45 seconds. Sear the fat cap as well to crisp up, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
- Slice and serve immediately, spooning the pan juices over each slice. There is no need to rest the meat with the reverse sear method.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 200°F/95°C.
- Pat the steak dry with a paper towel, and generously season all sides of the steak with salt and pepper.
- Transfer to a wire rack on top of a baking sheet, and bake for about 45 minutes to an hour, until the internal temperature reads about 125°F/50˚C for medium-rare. Adjust the bake time if you like your steak more rare or well-done.
- Heat the canola oil in a pan over high heat until smoking. Do not use olive oil, as its smoke point is significantly lower than that of canola oil and will smoke before reaching the desired cooking temperature.
- Sear the steak for 1 minute on one side, then flip.
- Add the butter, garlic, rosemary, and thyme, and swirl around the pan. Transfer the garlic and herbs on top of the steak and baste the steak with the butter using a large spoon.
- Baste for about 1 minute, then flip the steak with tongs and baste the other side for about 15 seconds.
- Turn the steak on its side and cook to render off any excess fat.
- Enjoy!

REVERSE-SEAR STEAK
The first time my dad went to the Pacific Dining Car in Los Angeles was in the 1950s. His mother, my Nanny Lolo, loved it. She was fussy about steaks, and it was (and still is) one of the best steakhouses in LA. When I want steak at home, I think of the Pacific Dining Car's classic steaks, but with an updated way of cooking them: the reverse-sear method. The reverse-sear method was made famous by J. Kenji Lopez-Alt, as the way to get the perfect steak, every time. I usually hate techniques that feel like gimmicks--I like to cook things simply with as little fuss as possible. However, I tried it myself, and honestly...the hype is true. It takes more time, but it's easy and the best way to get a perfect steak. The key is to use a very thick slab of meat. If you use a thin steak, this process won't work--you'll cook it through too quickly.

Steps:
- To get an extra-crispy crust, place the steak on a wire rack set over a baking sheet and leave, uncovered, in the refrigerator overnight. The air in the refrigerator is dry and will help dry the outside of the steak.
- When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
- Generously season the steak all over on both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder and mushroom powder if using.
- Place the steak, still on the wire rack and baking sheet, directly into the oven. Cook, checking the internal temperature occasionally, for 20 to 40 minutes. Ideally you want the steak to be 120 degrees F for medium-rare/medium, which is my favorite.
- Just before the steak comes out of the oven, heat a dry cast-iron skillet over high heat for 1 minute. Add the butter, then immediately add the steak to skillet and cook until each side is crusty and well browned, about 45 seconds per side, pushing down to sear. Using tongs, hold the steak sideways to sear the edges. Serve right away; there's no need to let reverse-seared steaks rest.
