Reverse Sear Sirloin Steak 🌞

[justaprogressive]

This falls in the category of "Everything You Know Is Wrong".

We're Americans, we grill and fry steaks alla time!
I'm here to tell you we're doing it wrong.

I fixed this last night and both my wife and I were stunned.
The meat was more tender than any sirloin had a right to be
and the juices of the steak were all intact. Minimal juices on
the baking pan. 1.5lb inch thick. Wife likes it medium-well
so I went the whole 45minutes. It was perfect. Oh, and we
got a delightful grilled taste from the high-temp sear...probably
you could finish this off on the grill if you like..

This is how I will be cooking sirloin from now on. YMMV..

Reverse Sear Sirloin Steak

Prep time: 45 minutes

Cooking time: 1-1 ½ hours

Serves: 2


Ingredients:

1-1 ½ pounds of sirloin steak
Salt
Pepper
Cooking spray
Olive oil

Follow these simple steps to reverse sear sirloin steak:

Step 1: Prepare for Cooking

Remove your steak from the refrigerator 45 minutes before you’re ready to put it in the oven.
Then, salt it generously on both sides, using your fingertips to press the salt into the steak.

Move an oven rack to the middle slot in the oven before preheating the oven to 225 degrees.
Spray a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.

Step 2: Reverse-Sear Sirloin Steak

Add steaks to the baking sheet. Add black pepper and your other choice seasonings to both
sides of the steaks before putting them in the oven. Cook for 30-45 minutes, checking the
temperature with a meat thermometer before searing.

Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Transfer steaks to the
preheated skillet, and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Step 3: After Cooking

Place steaks on a clean plate or cutting board. Tent foil over the steaks as they rest for 5-10
minutes before serving.

Try it, you'll see!

1. Okay, I'll try it tonight

I'll be solo tonight so I'll give this a try.

Normally, I'm a grillmeister and I can cook many things on a grill including meats, fish, vegetables and even eggs. I've rarely been disappointed. Well except for the first time I tried grilling eggs!

I'll be reporting my results on NJCher's What's for Dinner post later today.

Thanks for the post! I'm always up for something new.
