Finally did that steak....

So, I finally made my ribeye....it turned out quite good. Not much to say about it other than that I am accustom to having the oven and stove fan vent outside. This particular method presents a difficulty in that it smokes something fierce.

The alarm went off.

The problem with this little inconvenience is that everyone in the three apartments around me KNOW now, that I have done something wrong with the stove. In reality, it is just the way this cooks.

This steak is done in a 500 degree oven for two minutes per side for medium rare. Needless to say, I chose the 1 minute per side for a rare steak. So - cast iron pan into the oven to get to 500 degrees and once there, the pan comes out to the stove which should be on the highest setting. 30-45 seconds per side to give it a good crust and then into the oven for the 2 minutes (or one if you like steak done right!) and then flip and your second time. Once it's done, out of the oven and into a wrapping of foil to rest and finish cooking.

Enjoy!

This Friday, I am making my award winning chili. Yay!
