I cut the nose off the state fair butter cow with my throwing axe just for that very thing.
I'm planning to melt it in a cast iron skillet placed over a fire I start with a pile of wood surrounding a jug of gas that I shoot with a flaming arrow. |

I'm with FMB that steak could have used more color. If you followed Alton's directions to a T then I'll go about 40 seconds on the searing instead of the 30.

http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/a...ye-recipe.html It's 30... And, given the lack of thickness of the meat, I did a great job actually. I didn't get the steak, that's where the challenge started... And I had to improvise, I won't pan-cook a stek without some form of rosemary, and you have to has at least some oil to get that done. Other than than making adjustments for having to use an anorexic steak, and the rosemary deal, it was exactly to his specs. Even putting it on a upside-down smaller plate on a larger plate. |

Honestly a peanut oil is ok on steaks - if you've never tried it. |

I had a fairly thick piece of steak the other night and did 2 minutes a side in the cast iron and then 2 minutes a side in the oven at 450. It came out medium-rare and had a great crush that made some very tender fat as well being in the pan that long.

Yeah I have an electric stove. I even put my skillet in the oven while it was preheating. That skillet was damn hot. My steaks were about a one inch thick.

I dunno, I was disappointed. I bought 3 steaks. I had one and my wife had one. Both came out the same. The last one I seared for 1 minute and placed in the oven at 3 minutes per side.

Mine were about 1 inch as well and I also have an electric stove which is why I went with a longer cook time per side on the stove. Takes a while to figure out how to use it. Mine came out great the second time I used it for steaks.

Yeah I rushed it, I was scared running around the house because the smoke. Next time I'll stay calm and actually throw in some butter and rosemary to glaze it.
