Can I use a different type of steak?

Yes, you can use any type of steak you prefer. However, for the best results, we recommend using a cut that's tender and juicy, like ribeye or sirloin. These cuts have a good amount of marbling, which adds flavor and keeps the steak moist during cooking.

Can I make this recipe ahead of time?

While it's best enjoyed fresh, you can prepare the garlic butter mixture ahead of time and store it in the fridge. Simply reheat it gently before serving. However, keep in mind that the steak is best cooked just before serving to ensure its tender and juicy.

How should I store leftovers?

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. To reheat, place the steak in a preheated oven at 250°F (120°C) for about 20-25 minutes, or until warmed through. This method helps to maintain the steak's tenderness.

Can I use frozen steak?

Yes, you can use frozen steak, but it's best to thaw it completely before cooking. This ensures even cooking and helps to achieve the perfect texture. To thaw, place the steak in the fridge overnight or use the defrost setting on your microwave.
