Fire up your Bull Dual Fuel Countertop Pizza Oven and pre-heat it to a scorching 700°F. This ensures a beautiful sear on the steak. Pat your dry with paper towels. A dry surface sears better! Generously season both sides with kosher salt and coarse black pepper. Let the steak come to room temperature for 20-30 minutes. This ensures even cooking.
Rub a thin layer of oil on your cast iron pan. Once your pizza stone has reached 700°F, place your pan in the oven and let it scorch hot. You want that pan to sizzle when the steak hits it! Carefully place your seasoned steak in the screaming hot cast iron pan. Place the cast iron pan back in the Bull Dual Fuel Countertop Pizza Oven. Sear undisturbed for 2-3 minutes per side, turning as necessary, depending on the thickness of your steak and desired doneness. This is where the magic happens – a beautiful crust forms, locking in all the juicy goodness. For an extra layer of flavor, toss in a sprig of rosemary and a few smashed garlic cloves into the pan with the steak during the last minute of searing.
Use the Bluetooth digital thermometers you have included to check the steak's internal temperature. Here's a guide for perfect doneness:
Rare: 125°F (52°C)
Medium-Rare: 135°F (57°C)
Medium: 145°F (63°C)
Medium-Well: 155°F (68°C)
Well-Done: 160°F (71°C)
Once the crust has formed and the steaks have reached your desired doneness remove them from the Bull Dual Fuel Countertop Pizza Oven. Transfer the steak to a cutting board and tent it loosely with foil once cooked to your desired doneness. Let it rest for 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
