Steak is a cut of meat, usually beef, sliced perpendicular to the muscle fibers and often grilled or pan-fried. It's known for its rich flavor and varying degrees of tenderness depending on the cut and how it's cooked. Steak can be enjoyed rare, medium-rare, medium, or well-done, each with a distinct texture and level of juiciness. Steak is typically a thick, flat piece of meat, often from the loin or rib area of the animal, though other cuts are also used. Steak is a popular dish due to its flavor, texture, and the experience of a perfectly cooked, juicy piece of meat.
Steak is commonly cooked by grilling, pan-frying, or broiling, with the cooking time and temperature determining the level of doneness. Steak is often categorized by its internal temperature and resulting texture. Rare (cool red center), medium-rare (warm red center), medium (pink center), and well-done (no pink) are common levels of doneness. Different cuts of steak, such as ribeye, sirloin, filet mignon, and New York strip, offer varying levels of tenderness and flavor. Marbling (fat content) is a key factor in steak quality, with better marbling resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
