Notes

pro Tip: Once the steak is done, move it to a plate and wait 5 to 10 minutes before slicing. Why? While cooking, the juices move to the center. If you cut it immediately, all those juices will run out on your board, leaving you with dry, hard meat. Resting allows the juices to move back into the fibers.
