How To Cook The Perfect Steak In A Stainless Steel Pan

My steak has been in the pan for 3 months and the crust is 'beautiful'

This doesn't seem right, burning the butter as you sear, and basting burnt butter back on? Start with using clarified butter/avocado oil/whatever high heat tolerant fat you want to sear it and it won't burn, and you get a better crust too. Save the butter for the end to finish/baste steak before it burns or at a lower heat. I just ate steak this way tonight, finished it with thyme, garlic, and butter, it was great and not burny.

*when the comments are more useful than the actual video 🙄

The amount of salt and pepper is too damn low

Thanks for showing me that I should never eat at the restaurant you are a chef at lol

Had friends over for steak and cooked them (the steak, not my friends!) in my stainless pan using your method. Added carnalized mushrooms and onions on top. They were blown away! Delicious! Thanks a lot!!

Woof. You should wait for the pan to get really hot- when you drop water into it- it should bounce around the pan, tiny balls of water, that’s the secret with stainless steel. Also, ghee would be better so as not to burn, add butter close to the end. Lastly, season higher and more evenly, after patting meat dry(super important).

That's a lot of burnt butter but not a lot of crust. I thought butter is used for finishing the steak?

Oh, Chef Anthony.

I wonder what the inside looked like and what temperature it was...

the crust isnt even good lol

Thank you! Made the best steak for Christmas dinner!

"Your butter is burnt, you donut"

Ok this is probably gonna be the last time I'll watch a food insider video but i just wanted to say that this is a way to cook a steak but it is not ideal at all. To get an high enough temperature to sear a steak properly without overcooking the inside, the milk solids in the butter are going to burn. A stainless steel pan is nice because it conducts and holds a lot of heat which would be good for another fat like oil but in the case of normal butter it's just going to burn. Ik i didn't put a meme or anything i just didn't want somebody to try this and then be disappointed when it doesn't taste good

Great video. My steaks don't stick anymore (the whole idea of the video) and the sear is amazing. Seems like a lot of "know it all" people watched just to criticize. Thanks for helping me!

Please, no one follow through with this and make a steak like he does. You never use butter to sear a steak- or any meat for that matter. Unless it's clarified butter, only use butter to finish off a steak. Otherwise, Itll turn out burnt and blackened like his did. Also, he didn't mention patting the meat dry, which is essential to get a decent crust on any meat. I'd suggest looking up reverse searing, dry brining, and other methods for the perfect steak

How long on each side approximately?

You are pretty wrong about not touching it :/ you can flip it at any time and still get the same results but okay

It’s swimming in butter, only add butter at the end

Ahhh, the flavor of burnt butter...
