How to Cook a new york strip steak

1st way: Stovetop

Sear both sides of your New York Strip in a cast iron pan on Med to Med High HeatOnce you are happy with the sear (3-5 mins), check for an internal temp of 130 degrees, pull and let rest.If not at 125-130 degrees, place in 350 degree oven until finished. (Should not take very long so keep an eye on it)

2nd way: Grill

Get a nice sear on your New York Strip over direct heatOnce you are happy with the sear (3-5 mins), transfer to the �cold side of the grill� or non-direct heat to finish to desired temperature (if needed, shouldn�t be very long)Pro Tip: Raise your steak 3-4 inches from your charcoal grill if your coals are too hot. This will give you a slower cook and less char on the steak.

need to know about the new york strip steak

The New York Strip is often considered two steaks in one due to the bone that runs through it. When this bone is left intact, it�s known as a �Bone-in New York Strip� or simply a �Kansas City Strip.� When the bone is removed, it becomes a �Boneless New York Strip.� Both versions offer the same great flavor and tenderness.While New York Strips come in various thicknesses, many steak enthusiasts consider a thickness of around 1.5 inches (about 4 centimeters) to be ideal for grilling. This thickness allows for a perfect balance of a seared crust and a juicy, medium-rare interior when cooked to perfection.
