Being able to cook your own steak at home is not only impressive, but it will save you so much money. Getting a nice cut of meat from the grocery store or the butcher will still save you compared to a steakhouse or a restaurant. Also, if you are entertaining important guests, it’s very impressive to come up with perfectly cooked steaks. If you want to learn all the tips and tricks to a perfect steak, follow these guidelines.

Seasoning

When it comes to seasoning a steak, you only need salt and pepper, but use more than you’re used to. Heavily seasoning your steak is the key to flavor. Since you can’t season the inside of your steak, seasoning it properly on the outside will ensure that it tastes perfect every time.

Basting

When your steak is just a couple of minutes away from being done, put the following ingredients in the pan: a tab of butter, garlic, and fresh herbs. Then, take the melted butter and baste the steak with all that flavor.

Resting

Once the meat is cooked, it’s so important to let the meat rest so none of the juices comes out once you cut it. The average time to rest is half the cooking time.
