When I try cooking meat on a screaming hot cast iron pan, my apartment fills with smoke and I usually set off fire alarms. Is there anything that I can do to avoid that?

[Tyshaun Hawkins]

Use avocado oil to cut down on the amount of smoke..avocado oil has a higher smoke temp than most other oils

Best ad i ever seen :)

[jensthom]

Make a cover so that you channel all the smoke into the vents:)

[MrDungleweed]

The meat fibres contracts when it hits the pan.. Cutting it straight away causes the fibres to release all of its juices. Which is why resting is important. This man told no lies!

Wow,so simple,but yr rt few people let the pan get hot enough and fewer cook with a cast iron pan!!! yr steaks look perfectly done...great job!!!
