Or place cast iron in 400 degree oven place steak on pan, flip one minute then 2 minutes for great sear, remove to serve
Where do you buy a good culinary torch? We got one on Amazon a year or so ago and couldn’t use it even once it was so weak. We’d much rather torch to sear our steaks than sear in a pan because of the smokey odor build up in the kitchen.
