Yeah that stuff is nasty.  I'm not sure why people would dip their pizza in a sauce; is the pizza that shitty that you need to add more flavor to it?  That's like putting A1 sauce on a fantastic cut of filet mignon.  

The parallel here though is that shitty to mediocre food tastes better with condiments. Adding ranch to Dominoes is the equivalent of adding A1 to an average steak. Ranch on a good pizza or A1 on a filet are clear no-no’s. 

I totally agree with that.  Good call.  I think if I asked for dipping sauce at a solid pizza joint they might throw me out lol.

Just like they’d throw you out for asking for A1 at a good steakhouse. Lol

I wouldn't even add A1 to an average steak.  Au poivre on the other hand...

Did you throw a little hot sauce on the upside down from Brooklyn Square?

You'd add A1 (or even ketchup) to Scruffy's overcooked "medium well" chuck steaks he grills for his upper tier friends.

You'd also get a hell of a jaw workout and two rounds of flossing after the meal.

I use the Montreal Steak Spice (hours before grilling), but never the olive oil. Why would I do that?

I've used montreal steak in the past and have loved it.  Olive oil is great too.

Heck no -- I did drop some crushed red pepper flakes on after my first piece w/o.

I wish I still had some of that in the freezer.  You being so close...not sure how this isnt the go-to.  Part of pizza is convenience - with 5 kids I am sure that is a big part - but being so close to near perfection?  Wowzer!

Garlic and onion powder too. Perfecto!

I use oil with a higher smoke point when cooking inside...peanut is good.  (Or, light olive)  Add to the pan, not to the steak.

Helps to sear in the pan and doesn't burn like it would if your fat to start was butter. 

Baste with butter at the end.

Now we're talkin!  I let the steak sit out for about 15 mins.  A few sprinkles of coarse sea salt, some fresh cracked pepper, and a very light drizzle of olive oil. High heat pan, sear each side for 45 seconds, then to the oven at 450F for a minute each side. Let it rest for 5 mins.  Perfecto!  I usually go with a NY strip or rib eye.

What’s all this pan talk? Am I the only one that grills his steak around here?

If I had a place to put a grill, I'd definitely have one.

Summer is grilling.

Pan/oven combo is great and easier to control temps.  (550, let the cast iron skillet sit in the oven for a good 20-30 minutes as your steak comes to room temp...then take it out, sear the steaks on high flame in the skillet and back in the oven.  Timing all depends on the size of the steak and how you like it but it is very formulaic and easy to reproduce.)

Yeah, we sometimes use the oven in winter months. When we have a family get together we’ll get a big beef tenderloin from Costco (they actually have great meat) and cook that puppy in the oven. Turns out real good. I like the grill flavor best, but weather gets in the way sometimes.
