Now, let's get down to business and talk about the types of steaks that are perfect for cooking medium rare. You've got your ribeye, your sirloin, and your filet mignon - each one is a steak lover's dream! And, fun fact, the filet mignon is actually a tenderloin cut, which is why it's so melt-in-your-mouth delicious.
But, before you start cooking, you've got to prepare your steak for the heat. That means bringing it to room temperature, patting it dry with a paper towel, and seasoning it with salt and pepper - the dynamic duo of steak seasonings! And, don't even get me started on the importance of oil - you want to use a high-smoke-point oil like avocado oil or grapeseed oil to get that perfect crust.
Now, let's talk about the cooking methods - you've got your grilling, your pan-searing, and your oven broiling. Each one is a steak game-changer, but pan-searing is definitely the most fun! You get to see the sizzle and crackle of the steak as it hits the hot pan, and the aroma that fills the air is just intoxicating.
