I googled "seal in the juices" to find an image of what a steak with sealed in juices looks like, just to give you a visual guide for the next time:



Ummmmmm… never mind. Carry on with whatever way you're doing it.

Yes, in milk. I assume the side of jellybeans is just out of frame.

I made the Serious Eats Hasselbeck potato casserole thing for Christmas this year. I had quite a bit of crispy edges on the exposed edge. I assume the reason that wouldn't happen is if you poured the liquid to cover, as opposed to ~1/2 way up (as I think was in the recipe). I might still personally prefer a gratin.

Prime sirloin. S&P, set out for about 45 mins. Put in 250 oven til 117. Let rest for ~15 mins and into cast iron with grapeseed oil, butter, & garlic. Seared for 90 sec per side.

Drying it off completely after coming out of the oven and then applying pressure would have made the sear 100% better.

For a steak that width, 45 sec - 1 min is enough time for the sear, beyond that and it will be cooked more towards medium than medium rare, such as what happened with your steak.

I have some 1/2" thick highly marbled (M8+) strip steaks, my normal method is to reverse sear using a pan but I'm not sure how I'd go doing that with something so thin. I have an oven but I do not have a thermometer. What's the plan?

Sear was weighted, don't think I could have applied any more pressure. Will try and dry it off out of oven on the next one.

Not hot enough/not enough oil are the other things that can have an effect on sear

Rather than the Hasselbeck, I would love to try Thomas Keller's potato pave. They look amazing.

Oh man. I just picked up a 2.2lb bone in ribeye, 2" thick i think ($36). Usually I just buy steaks at Stop & Shop but was in this new "urban's foodie market" and the thing looked too awesome to not get. Going to have to do some serious backtracking in this thread to find some methods of cooking these beasts. Will take some pics of it in a bit.
