Cold and flu season hit us hard this year. Just when my daughter and I were over our coughs, my husband got sick…around his birthday nonetheless. His birthday is around Valentine’s Day, so it was a double-whammy of festivities we had to cancel. Thankfully after about 3 weeks, he started to feel better. As a belated celebration, I cooked him a steak dinner Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

The Cut<\/h2>\n

I let him pick a cut from the choices available on MilkAndEggs.com<\/strong><\/a>. Their steaks are restaurant quality, from California-based vendors such as: Premier Meats Company<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Niman Ranch<\/strong><\/a>. I was thankful that he chose Rib Eye, because I’ve cooked that cut before. Maybe we’ll try the filet mignon as a future experiment!<\/p>\n

Meat Delivery at the door<\/h2>\n

Our steaks arrived on the doorstep in their signature bright yellow Milk & Eggs<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0insulated bag, complete with ice pack. They were vacuum sealed, and in perfect condition.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Research<\/h2>\n

Because I never reverse-seared a steak before, I researched online for best methods. I referred to this Serious Eats link<\/a>\u00a0and this video<\/a>. I learned that it takes a lot more time to reverse sear a steak, including drying out the steak in the fridge. In addition, it’s helpful to have the following items…<\/p>\n

What you need<\/h2>\n

Aluminum Half-Size Baking Sheet<\/h4>\n

My sheet is actually from Surfas<\/a>, which re-opened recently at it’s new location. Obviously, use whatever fits your oven best.\u00a0The half-size baking sheet fits perfectly in my oven, without using the rack.<\/p>\n

[amazon_link asins=’B000G0KJG4′ template=’ProductAd’ store=’westmomm-20′ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’3eb3c8c5-18ef-11e8-ac05-bfa125e9a259′]<\/p>\n

\n

Silicon baking mat<\/h4>\n

I purchased these last year. They are super helpful when baking anything, and eliminates aluminum foil waste.<\/p>\n

[amazon_link asins=’B0725GYNG6′ template=’ProductAd’ store=’westmomm-20′ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’4bd1f05d-18ef-11e8-b21d-3da696c03a11′]<\/p>\n

\n

Wire baking rack<\/h4>\n

This is perfectly sized for the half sheet pan, and keeps the meat elevated.<\/p>\n

[amazon_link asins=’B0041HO4NW’ template=’ProductAd’ store=’westmomm-20′ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’df5cc842-18ef-11e8-a826-f147f756a622′]<\/p>\n

\n

Oven Thermometer<\/h4>\n

To make sure my oven temperature is accurate, I have an oven thermometer.<\/p>\n

[amazon_link asins=’B0000DJUYR’ template=’ProductAd’ store=’westmomm-20′ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’f86ccbd1-18ef-11e8-ba4a-a34a5342af3a’]<\/p>\n

\n

Meat Thermometer<\/h4>\n

I’m using the meat thermometer I got from Cave Tools<\/a> awhile back.<\/p>\n

[amazon_link asins=’B00IJHVONI’ template=’ProductAd’ store=’westmomm-20′ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’3de22b24-18f0-11e8-bc40-3d9584c6b4f7′]<\/p>\n

\n

Cast Iron Skillet<\/h4>\n

I love my cast iron skillet. I can’t believe I didn’t own one until later in life. It makes food taste so much better, and is the only way to sear steak!<\/p>\n

[amazon_link asins=’B00G2XGC88′ template=’ProductAd’ store=’westmomm-20′ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’cdbe52b9-18f0-11e8-ad73-c58e72b8826c’]<\/p>\n

\n

Ingredients<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a>Rib Eye Steaks from Milk & Eggs<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Kerrygold Irish Butter<\/a>, fresh peeled garlic, thyme, salt, pepper (thank you to @kitchenfling<\/a> for the thyme)<\/p>\n

Place seasoned steaks in oven between 200\u00b0F and 250\u00b0F<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a>I placed mine on the center rack and seasoned with salt and pepper<\/p>\n

Remove from oven when internal temperature reaches 15 degrees lower than desired final temperature<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a>We like our steaks on the rare side, so I took out the steaks around 111\u00b0F.<\/p>\n

The following chart is from Serious Eats<\/strong><\/a>. Always use your meat thermometer to take the temperature. I left the meat in the oven for about 40 minutes<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Doneness<\/th>\nTarget Temperature in the Oven<\/th>\nFinal Target Temperature<\/th>\nApproximate Time in a 250\u00b0F Oven<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n
Rare<\/td>\n105\u00b0F (40\u00b0C)<\/td>\n120\u00b0F (49\u00b0C)<\/td>\n20 to 25 minutes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Medium-Rare<\/td>\n115\u00b0F (46\u00b0C)<\/td>\n130\u00b0F (54\u00b0C)<\/td>\n25 to 30 minutes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Medium<\/td>\n125\u00b0F (52\u00b0C)<\/td>\n140\u00b0F (60\u00b0C)<\/td>\n30 to 35 minutes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Medium-Well<\/td>\n135\u00b0F (57\u00b0C)<\/td>\n150\u00b0F (66\u00b0C)<\/td>\n35 to 40 minutes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Sear on all sides in buttered cast iron skillet and baste with thyme and garlic<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a>I seared each side for about 60 seconds.<\/p>\n

Let steak rest for about 10 minutes, then enjoy!<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a>Happy Birthday \/ Valentine’s Day!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Medium rare. Yum!<\/p>\n

Reverse searing is a delicious way to prepare steak. It takes more prep, but is definitely worth it.<\/p>\n
