 It's very tender. It's even all the way around. That is so good better than any steak you'll eat in a restaurant. Hey y'all, it's Tammy with Colored Belly Cooks and today I'm going to teach you how to make a well done or medium well done steak and it be juicy and delicious. You're gonna see how many minutes I cook this steak. It's about three-quarters of an inch thick and that way if you want medium you can just reduce the amount of minutes but make sure that you leave the time on the end to add the butter to the pan and do a good basting with some herbs because you are going to be so satisfied. Alright today we're making a juicy steak, a delicious steak and we're going to pan fry it in an iron skillet. This iron skillet has been on for a good five minutes. You want to make sure that it's good and hot all the way across and not just partially. We're going to use a good bit of oil and we're going to use extra virgin olive oil to do our steak in. If you've got canola oil that would work even better. We're going to let this get really hot and then we're going to drop our steak in there. One thing you need to make a good steak is a good steak with plenty of marbling in it. You need butter, of course salt and pepper and we are going to use rosemary today and we're going to use some garlic but the first thing we're going to do is get some salt on this steak. This steak has been out to room temperature now for about two hours so you want your steak to be at room temperature and we're just putting some kosher salt on it. I'm going to flip it over and put it on the other side as well. This is not kosher salt this is actually Himalayan salt. We're going to start our sear. You're going to want it to be good and hot. The great thing about using these good oils is that you don't have a smoky mess but I will say you're going to get splattered and pop and the floor is going to get splattered and pop if you cook it on the front I like what we're doing so make sure you wear an apron or some old clothes. We're going to baste it with some butter but we're going to do that at the end. Right now we're just getting a good sear on the bottom. Close to a medium high and we're going to let that sit in there for three more minutes. Okay we're going to pour off this grease, put in a couple of pieces of garlic and rosemary. I'm going to go ahead and turn it over and I'm going to start basting it. You're going to want your heat to be down a little lower so that you're not going to burn the butter. We're going to baste each side about a minute and you'll be able to tell by looking at the garlic about you know when you need to be done and the rosemary as well. Let me put it down here so I can get the flavor on the other side. I'm going to flip it over and we're going to baste the other side. This one didn't get quite as brown in the center so I'm going to make sure I baste the center. I'm going to flip it and baste the other side. I think it's been enough time. We're going to put this on our plate. Pretty much just hot butter. That's good stuff. So you're going to let that rest about five minutes. All right let's slice into the steak and see how it looks y'all. It has set here for about five minutes. It's very tender and it's well done isn't it? All right we're going to slice into this biggie. See how we did time on this one. It's even all the way around. That is a nice nice medium. Just almost a touch of medium rare right here. Oh that looks good. This is going to be so delicious y'all. It's a bigger piece of steak. Takes a minute to chew it. It is amazing how different the steak can taste by the amount of time that it cooks. This one is a medium. It's nice and warm. When you put it in your mouth it's still real warm and it's delicious and very tender. But you can really taste the meat when you do it this way. So you better buy some good meat by prime. Okay let's give it a taste and see if we can taste the rosemary and garlic. Wow for a steak to be that well done. It's delicious. Boy is it good though. It tastes amazing. That is so good better than any steak you'll eat in a restaurant. Now you guys know how to make medium to medium rare and medium well-to-well. Hopefully that'll make everybody in the house happy.
