First to get the best steak you need to start with the best beef, and that's grass fed beef. Not only is it better for you, it has less calories ounce for ounce.

Next you need to learn a simple technique called pan roasting. Sure you could put the steak on the grill, but you will have more control and a better end product with this simple technique.

Pan Roasting is a sequence of four easy steps, all designed to achieve maximum flavor and texture.
The Sear: Browning on the stove-top creates a flavorful, crusty outside layer
The Flip: Frequently turning the steak to allow it to brown all over.
The Roast: Place the pan in the oven, where it cooks evenly, without over browning.
The butter Baste: The trick to add another flavor layer.

Oven: Preheat 400 degrees
Equipment:
Cast Iron Skillet
