What internal temperatures indicate steak doneness on a cooking chart?
A steak cooking chart pairs doneness with internal temperature, roughly 125 degrees Fahrenheit for rare, 135 for medium-rare, 145 for medium, 150 for medium-well, and 160 for well-done. Pulling the steak a few degrees early allows for carryover cooking as it rests off the heat.
Why should you rest a steak after cooking?
Resting lets the juices, pushed to the center by heat, redistribute through the meat, so they stay in the steak instead of spilling out when cut. Resting for about five to ten minutes also allows carryover cooking to finish, helping the steak reach its target doneness more evenly.
How do cooking times differ for grilling versus pan-searing a steak?
Grilling uses high direct heat and often cooks each side quickly, while pan-searing relies on a hot skillet and can finish thicker cuts in the oven. Times vary with steak thickness and heat, so a chart gives rough ranges. Using a thermometer is the most reliable check for doneness.
