How To

How to cook your steak

The thickness of the meat determines the best cooking method. For example, thinner steaks are best cooked over low heat, while thicker ones need higher temperatures.

Don't overcook them as they will lose flavor. And remember always to remove the steak from the pan when it's done - this way, you won't burn yourself.

Cooking times will vary depending on how large the steak is and what degree of doneness you desire. Here are some general guidelines.

Medium Rare: Cook till medium rare. This is when the internal temperature of the food reaches 145°F (63°C). This will take between 3 to 5 minutes per side.

Medium: Cook until medium. This means that the internal temp has reached 160 degrees F (71 degrees Celsius). This usually takes only 6 minutes per side.

When done well, cook until the internal temperatures reach 180°F (82°C). This typically takes 8-12 minutes per side.
