How to cook steak

The thickness and cooking method of any kind of meat will affect the way it is cooked. Thicker steaks can be cooked on a low heat. Thicker steaks need to be cooked at higher temperatures.

Also, don't cook them too long as it will cause loss of flavor. You should always remove the steak from the skillet when it's done. This will prevent you from burning yourself.

The size and desired doneness of the steak will affect the cooking time. Here are some general guidelines:

Medium Rare: Cook until medium-rare, which is when the internal temperature reaches at least 145degF (63degC). This will take between 3 to 5 minutes per side.

Medium: Cook to medium (or until the internal temperature reaches 160degF/71degC). This typically takes 6 minutes per side.

Well Done: Cook until well done, which means the internal temps reach 180degF (82degC). This usually requires 8 to 12 minutes per side.
