Steak dinner and good advice!


The BEST piece of advice I can give to all of my new to cooking friends: Don't cut your meat right away... let it sit on your plate for a while... the juices will redistribute throughout the meat and keep it tender and juicy!!!! mmmmmmmm my filet ROCKS


Pat steak dry, Just use Salt and Pepper on the steak prior to cooking. cook to desired temperature. Do not cut meat until ready to eat.
Herb Butter - your butter of preference, mixed with garlic salt, italian spices, cheyanne pepper, regular pepper.

NOTICE - juices not pouring out of steak because I waited to cut it
