Some butter? That’s 400 calories worth, add the oil which is probably around 300, plus the rib eye itself which is almost 700, that’s around 1400 calories for a steak.

If you haven't tried this you could also smoke the meat by putting it on a saucepan adding some oil/butter to a mini foil bowl then adding a hot charcoal to the foil bowl creating smoke instantly, leave it covered for however long you want or until there's barely any smoke left and then you season your meat and cooking it on the cast-iron.
throw a sprig of thyme, garlic greens and a slice of shalot in the butter when you baste makes the steak go crazy and if you want it to tast like you grilled it i use just a small dash of smoked paprika to replicate that smoky char taste

There are many techniques; some good chefs say don't season at beginning with anything but salt and oil...pepper will burn & oiling 1 side of steak and not the pan is preferred or at most super lightly oil the pan, but definitely the meat. On the pan or grill right before the flip then oil the 2nd side of the meat. Pepper comes later. I've gone through 20+ videos and just put together ideas I'll try. Many ways and I'm not saying one way is necessarily the best
This is honestly the best way to cook a steak not only is it delicious, but the cast-iron serves an important role in allowing a smaller amount of iron to absorb into the meat. the benefit is your body getting a little bit more iron that it needs plus it’s the proper way to cook a steak just look how delicious that looks great job
@@thalohdepends on the burner but yes, medium and let it preheat, get a good sear on the sides, remove steak, lower heat, add aromatics and butter, once the butter is foaming put the steak back in and baste until it’s about 10 degrees Fahrenheit under your desired temp, maybe even a bit more. Basting will cause a lot more carryover cooking than other methods
Think Guga needs to include how long you should let a steak rest AFTER it’s done. Cause you DO NOT cut into a steak directly our the pan/grill. AT LEAST 5 minutes it should rest. Sometimes, longer is better.
Don’t add anything but salt before you cook it. Season it after. The pepper and garlic powder will burn on the skillet. It will create a burnt/charcoal taste in the mouth, and some people think that that taste is supposed to be there. It’s not. It’s only there because you seasoned before. Salt before. Season after.
@@codesm96 Liking the charcoal taste is weird, and it’s fine, but it’s not the correct way to cook a steak. HE might like the charcoal taste, but the majority of people taking his advice and watching his videos will most definitely not.
It doesn’t taste like charcoal. Do you see any dark black on the steak? No. It never taste like charcoal unless you put way too much pepper or totally overcook it
Tbh I had my doubts, with the 4 minutes total for a piece of meat that thick, but it turned out perfect medium rare with a nice crust in the cast iron. Tanks Guga!
Very frustrating watching videos like this when they say 1mon. then flip, 4 min. total, but you don't know how hot the pan is to start with. How about a specific temperature, I have an infra-red digital thermometer. Thanks.
This isn’t an experiment in a laboratory u don’t need that type of equipment. Just a pan with plenty of oil, on a fairly high heat which is ready to go when white smoke appears. Do as he says, then let it rest for at least 4 minutes on a board
@@MitchellfcNa32I'm autistic. I will ruin a $30 steak before it is even purchased if I don't dial in on the details that normal people are somehow wizards at by nature 😅
Thanku so much for this.. I am completely new to cooking steak and i only have a cast iron skillet. Almost all the videos i found were using an oven at some point of the cooking and I was starting to wonder whether an oven is an absolute necessity for cooking steak!! This clearifies that it's not the case👍🏽
I know this is super late but Guga I took a on sale NY strip and turned it into THE BEST steak I ever made using this video as a guide. Super simple but the butter and oil combo made such a huge difference than straight butter. 100% thank you so much for this made my cast iron skillet my favorite steak tool.
People disregard pan-seared stakes too much in my opinion. A perfect crust EVERY time with the hot oil. I like to use a high-quality cold press olive oil for my steaks to get a delicious, nutty, savory taste even without using butter (which i still use, Kerrygold, btw) and then rest it with a small amount of fresh kerrygold to have the fresh butter flavor along with the roasted, basted butter flavor. Never had a bad steak since using this method!
Yes, after searing, you have to lower the heat ( idk the temps, i just go by how it feels right ) You start searing with mid-high temp, and lower somewhere to mid or below (depending on your fire source)
Revisit the test there where you concludeed that you need a good amount of oil to get a good sear! I usually just put a little knob of ghee to “wet” the surface of the pan, and I even see people doing it without any oil all if they have a fatty piece of meat ofc, try it out!
I don't like to touch my steak a lot when it's searing. Plus if you want the butter to not burn just sear the steak like you normally would but turn off the heat completely then baste. The residual hear from the cast iron is plenty to melt the butter, continue to cook the steak and ensure no burning butter.
I just discovered the wonders of medium rare steak this year and let me tell you that I've never tried a better tasting way to make steak EVER. My family is the type to be like "if there's any pink in meat, then it's raw and trash and will kill you" so I always fully cooked my steaks but I always hated the taste, so I came to the conclusion that I hated steak until I met my girlfriend and she made it like this and had me try it. Never going back😼
We had some really nice steaks - grass fed local beef - for Father's Day, and I wanted to make sure I did it right. This was perfect, they were perfectly done, it absolutely melted in your mouth, so tender. Thank you so much!
Can't wait to see the morons in the comments saying "it is raw !!" because the steak isn't completely grey and well done 🤣. Looks amazing like usual, Guga is the GOAT
Honestly the times and temperatures are so subjective when doing steak like this. As long as you have a crust, pink in the middle and butter that didnt burn you did it right.
So let me understand this better , why everyone eats medium rare ? I thought it should have the least amount of blood ? I noticed in Turkey 🇹🇷 they made them well done but it wasn’t dry and it tasted so good !
I grew up always thinking a grilled steak was the best. When I got my first apartment, I bought a cast iron pan because I always wanted one. Nothing compares to the sear you can get on a cast iron.
let the steak sit out for 20 mins salt it Do not add anything but salt to the steak oil your pan let the oil get hot place the steak in the pan but do not move it 4 mins brown then flip it once the steak is golden brown Important > Let it rest for 5 to 8 mins now seasoned it & cut it & enjoy 🙂
I cook mine 2min on each side then finish with 30s basting each side. I like mine closer to medium. Im still try find a good seasoning combo. Ive used just S&P, then Montreal Steak, SPG, and now im using a TexJoy steak seasoning. Its pretty good

If your butter burns, you used salted butter, opposed to unsalted, and you get a better sear with ghee.

He forgot to say that you have to lower the heat on the iron pan so that the butter doesn't burn 🤷🏻♀️
What temp do you start cooking the steak at? I'm guessing no higher than medium, because cast iron retains heat well, so too high can burn the butter

When you cook for 4 minutes after basing it in butter, are you flipping it every minute until the 4 minutes?
that “something” is the pan heat being too high for the new chefs out there wondering
Using “Ghee” aka clarified butter instead of oil at the beginning brings that crust to the next level
Me seeing 10 steak vids in a row
let the steak sit out for 20 mins salt it Do not add anything but salt to the steak oil your pan let the oil get hot place the steak in the pan but do not move it 4 mins brown then flip it once the steak is golden brown Important > Let it rest for 5 to 8 mins now seasoned it & cut it & enjoy 🙂
I cook mine 2min on each side then finish with 30s basting each side.
I like mine closer to medium. Im still try find a good seasoning combo. Ive used just S&P, then Montreal Steak, SPG, and now im using a TexJoy steak seasoning. Its pretty good
