    If you don’t want to watch a video -Sear the shit out of each side for a minute or so on a cast iron, then stick the whole thing in the stove at 425 for however long it takes to reach your preferred doneness. Takes about 7-8 minutes for med-well.

      Andy cooks prefers to turn every 30 seconds or so, even if that’s sort of contrary to tradition. I had a very even steak about 1.5cm thick or so, took maybe 3-4 minutes to reach medium rare. Then rest for 2/3 of the time it took to cook and cut and mmm.

      Also in the video you only need the first 4 and a half minutes, then it’s other techniques.

      Got to get myself a proper cast iron pan though.

          Oh that does look very nice.

          It’s 5:22 am here and I was just debating whether to maybe make myself a snack before I get to bed but now I want one but I shouldn’t but now I want to eat a proper steak and I don’t have any and uhhh

      I recently caved and decided to try the other method after years of doing it this way. Flip every 30 seconds, and take note of doneness in the beginning by feel. You build a better crust this way and get more even and predictable cooking. Turns out that frequent flipping does not dry things out
