How to Cook the Perfect Steak?
For all steak - the principles remains the same.
- Always buy your steak from O Crualaoi’s the butcher. This way you can guarantee your steak will have the depth of flavour and tenderness that great Irish Beef has.
- Always have your pan or grill pan as hot as possible .
- Always remove your steaks from the fridge at least 15 mins before cooking them.
- Always season your steaks with salt and pepper and brush with a little olive oil before cooking .
- Place the steak on the pan and cook for the same amount of time on both sides (See times below for steaks)
- Always let the steak relax for 5 minutes before serving . This allows the juices to stay in the meat .
