1. MYTHS AND FACTS
ABOUT STEAK

2. Flip Your Steak
Once
FACT. This is a fact and it is
discussed over the years. Flip the
steak once to allow each side to
be dry up and prepare a crust.
This crust especially helps to lock
the juice in it and keep the steak
juicy and flavorful.

3. Cook Your Steak
At Room
Temperature
MYTH. The theory behind this
is to bring your steak to room
temperature which will create a
more browner steak when you
serve it. But actually, 20-30
minutes isn't sufficient time to
change the inner temperature
of your steak; and it can't
brown until a large portion of
the dampness has dissipated
from the layers of meat nearest
to the surface.

4. Preheat Your Grill
FACT. This is a fact that
warming your flame broil to
your coveted cooking
temperature is critical when
cooking the ideal steak. With a
specific goal to cook your
steak equally all through,
completely pre-warm your
flame broil and cook on each
side for a similar measure of
time, just flipping it once.

5. Let Your Steak
Rest After
Cooking
FACT. Leave your steak for a
while after cooking as it helps to
absorb the juice. Depending on
the thickness leave it for about 5
to 10 minutes (at least 5
minutes). This way the meat will
lose less juice when you cut it
for serving and will taste juicier.

6. Beef Is Unhealthy
MYTH. This is a myth as we
don’t understand why beef is
called unhealthy. Each cut of
meat offers an endless number
of vitamins and nutrients along
with high iron and protein
contents. Iron, protein, vitamin
plays a vital role in body
function and hence we wonder
how steak earned the bad
reputation.

7. Salt The Steak
Before Cook
FACT. Salting the steak before
cooking will helps to suck out
moisture on the surface and
give it a perfect brown color. It is
recommended not to salt early
as it could eliminate too much
moisture in the meat and you
could end up with a dry steak.
