What mistakes are we making that keep the steak from turning out right?

Steak is one of the most popular types of meat and usually comes from pork or beef. It is easy to cook in many different ways, but the result is not always what you hoped for.

Let’s take a look at some of the most common mistakes that can ruin a steak:

Cooking it straight from the refrigerator
One of the most common mistakes is cooking steak straight from the refrigerator. Steak should be left at room temperature for at least an hour before cooking.

Putting it in the pan before the oil is hot
Wrong! Let the oil get hot so the pan reaches the high temperature steak requires.

Turning it constantly
Another common mistake is turning the meat constantly. This will only result in an unevenly cooked steak.

Not using seasonings
If we want a tasty steak, seasonings are essential.

Not letting the steak “rest”
We should always let our meat “rest.” This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, giving us a tasty, juicy steak.
