Tips on Making Outback Steakhouse Steak

This Outback steakhouse steak recipe is way cheaper, yet is as good as the original. In addition, you get to have an Outback steak seasoning that you can use for your other recipes aside from steak. Here are the best tips for making this recipe, with tips on steak preparation and how to season a steak:

  • While this recipe uses ribeye, you can use any steak that you prefer or have on hand. For the best flavor, be sure to use one with a good fat marbling. Also, thaw it for at least 30 minutes at room temperature before cooking.
  • To season the steak, it is important to pat it dry first using paper towels. Then season the top, bottom, and sides liberally, including the fat. You can use a shaker to help evenly distribute the seasoning.
  • You can cook the steak on a cast iron skillet, grill pan, or any heavy-bottomed shallow skillet. This way, the heat will be evenly distributed throughout the pan and the steak will be cooked evenly. Make sure that it is smoking hot so that you get a good sear.
  • For the doneness, check the internal temperature using an instant read thermometer. For a rare steak, cook it until it reaches 120 degrees F. If you want it medium well, it shouldn’t go beyond 140 degrees F. For medium, it should be 150. Lastly, for medium well, it should reach 155 degrees F. Anything beyond that is well done. 
  • Store the excess Outback steak seasoning in an airtight container away from direct heat or sunlight. It’ll stay good for up to 6 months. You can use this ribeye steak seasoning for other proteins like fried chicken, fish, burgers, or ribs.
