Top 5 tips on how to cook the perfect steak! 

1. 1. Prepare the steak: Bring the steak to room temperature and season it generously with salt and pepper.

   2. Preheat and sear: Preheat your grill or skillet to high heat. Sear the steak for 2-3 minutes on each side to create a flavorful crust.

   3. Reduce heat and cook to desired doneness: Lower the heat to medium-high and continue cooking the steak until it reaches your preferred level of doneness. You can use the touch test or a meat thermometer to check for doneness.

   4. Rest the steak: Once cooked, remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute and results in a more tender steak.

   5. Slice and serve: Slice the steak against the grain and serve it with your favorite sides or sauces. Enjoy!

   Remember to adjust the cooking times based on the thickness of the steak and your preferred level of doneness. Using a meat thermometer is helpful for checking the internal temperature if desired.
