Best way to cook a steak

[riwiho]

I cook a lot at home, really enjoy it actually but I have only cooked steak once.

I'm about to prepare one now (long days DIY pushed dinner back), what is the best way to cook a steak?

[riwiho]

Some good info there chaps.

Can I use the butter and pepper that remains in the pan to make some kind of pepper source?

OK then, going to drive in now, pan is hot and ready for the steak I seasoned earlier in the day.

I am cooking and eating it and shall return back later. Thanks again for the help. R

oooohhhhhh - the steak was good, I perhaps overdid them by 30secs but still very tasty, going to work on weight, cut and cooking time further next time.

Added some mushrooms to the butter and garlic left in the pan while the steak was resting and they were stunning. I could have eaten a plate of those mushrooms for my dinner.

Thanks for all the help.
