Best 5 Reverse Sear Filet Mignon Or Ribeye Filet Recipes
Reverse searing is a cooking technique that produces a tender and juicy steak with a perfectly browned crust. This method involves cooking the steak at a low temperature for an extended period of time, then searing it briefly at a high temperature. This results in a steak that is cooked evenly throughout, with a flavorful crust and a tender, juicy interior. Reverse searing is a great way to cook filet mignon or ribeye filet, as these cuts of steak are known for their tenderness and flavor.

REVERSE-SEAR RIBEYE STEAK
In 2001, I started playing with the idea of reverse-searing, or slow-cooking beef first, then searing to finish. Initially, I tried it on a standing rib roast and not only did the technique produce an evenly done interior and great sear, it didn't smoke up the kitchen nearly as bad as the traditional sear-first method. Does this work on steak? Anyone with a food blog these days knows darn well it does. As for sauce, this steak don't need no stinkin' sauce - but if you happen to have some of my compound herb butter on hand, that wouldn't be bad. Note: A proper probe thermometer has a control base with a readout, a long metal cable and a long, sharp probe that goes into the food and remains throughout cooking. Typically, the base will have a temperature alarm that can be set to go off when a target temperature is reached.This recipe first appeared in Season 1 of Good Eats: Reloaded.

Steps:
- Season steak on both sides with the salt and place on a rack set inside a rimmed sheet pan. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or up to 24.
- Heat oven to 200ºF. Insert a probe thermometer horizontally through the side of the steak and roast, still on the rack and sheet pan, until it reaches an internal temperature of 120ºF, about 1 hour. Remove steak from the oven and rest, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place a 12-inch cast iron skillet over high heat until it reaches at least 600ºF, at least 10 minutes. (If you don't have an infrared thermometer, you'll know you're close when 1/2 teaspoon water dropped in the middle of the pan has completely evaporated in 5 seconds.
- Brush a very light coat of peanut oil onto both sides of the steak. Transfer to the hot skillet and sear on each side until deeply browned, 45 seconds per side. Use a stopwatch!
- Transfer to a clean rack and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice diagonally against the grain to serve.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F.
- Season all sides of the rib-eyes liberally with salt and pepper. Place on wire rack-lined baking sheet. Bake until the desired internal temperature is reached, 105 degrees F for rare, 115 for medium rare and 125 for medium, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. When the rib-eyes come out of the oven, tent loosely with aluminum foil while preheating the skillet.
- Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil, then sear the steaks on the first side for about a minute. Flip the steaks and add the butter to the skillet. Once the butter has melted, continue to cook the steaks, continuously basting with the melted butter, until seared on the second side, about 45 seconds. Sear the fat cap as well to crisp up, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
- Slice and serve immediately, spooning the pan juices over each slice. There is no need to rest the meat with the reverse sear method.
REVERSE-SEAR STEAK
The first time my dad went to the Pacific Dining Car in Los Angeles was in the 1950s. His mother, my Nanny Lolo, loved it. She was fussy about steaks, and it was (and still is) one of the best steakhouses in LA. When I want steak at home, I think of the Pacific Dining Car's classic steaks, but with an updated way of cooking them: the reverse-sear method. The reverse-sear method was made famous by J. Kenji Lopez-Alt, as the way to get the perfect steak, every time. I usually hate techniques that feel like gimmicks--I like to cook things simply with as little fuss as possible. However, I tried it myself, and honestly...the hype is true. It takes more time, but it's easy and the best way to get a perfect steak. The key is to use a very thick slab of meat. If you use a thin steak, this process won't work--you'll cook it through too quickly.

Steps:
- To get an extra-crispy crust, place the steak on a wire rack set over a baking sheet and leave, uncovered, in the refrigerator overnight. The air in the refrigerator is dry and will help dry the outside of the steak.
- When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
- Generously season the steak all over on both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder and mushroom powder if using.
- Place the steak, still on the wire rack and baking sheet, directly into the oven. Cook, checking the internal temperature occasionally, for 20 to 40 minutes. Ideally you want the steak to be 120 degrees F for medium-rare/medium, which is my favorite.
- Just before the steak comes out of the oven, heat a dry cast-iron skillet over high heat for 1 minute. Add the butter, then immediately add the steak to skillet and cook until each side is crusty and well browned, about 45 seconds per side, pushing down to sear. Using tongs, hold the steak sideways to sear the edges. Serve right away; there's no need to let reverse-seared steaks rest.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 200°F/95°C.
- Pat the steak dry with a paper towel, and generously season all sides of the steak with salt and pepper.
- Transfer to a wire rack on top of a baking sheet, and bake for about 45 minutes to an hour, until the internal temperature reads about 125°F/50˚C for medium-rare. Adjust the bake time if you like your steak more rare or well-done.
- Heat the canola oil in a pan over high heat until smoking. Do not use olive oil, as its smoke point is significantly lower than that of canola oil and will smoke before reaching the desired cooking temperature.
- Sear the steak for 1 minute on one side, then flip.
- Add the butter, garlic, rosemary, and thyme, and swirl around the pan. Transfer the garlic and herbs on top of the steak and baste the steak with the butter using a large spoon.
- Baste for about 1 minute, then flip the steak with tongs and baste the other side for about 15 seconds.
- Turn the steak on its side and cook to render off any excess fat.
- Enjoy!

SEARED FILET MIGNON
Steps:
- Season the Filet Mignons with salt and pepper. Combine the butter and oil in a large saute pan over high heat. When the pan is hot and foam has subsided, add the beef. Sear for three minutes per side for rare. Transfer to a warm platter.
Tips:
- Always start with a high-quality cut of meat. Look for well-marbled filet mignon or ribeye steaks that are at least 1 inch thick.
- Season the steaks liberally with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Sear the steaks in a very hot skillet with a little bit of oil for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are browned and cooked to your desired doneness.
- Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
- For a more flavorful steak, try using a compound butter or herb-infused oil to sear the steaks.
- If you don't have a cast iron skillet, you can also sear the steaks in a regular skillet over high heat.
- Be sure to use a meat thermometer to ensure that the steaks are cooked to your desired doneness.
