Cooking Instructions
- 1
First make sure the cut is Top sirloin, it is a different cut than sirloin and make sure it is at least an inch thick, more fat the better.
- 2
Prep: 50 minutes before cooking, take the steak out of the fridge and dry it thoroughly with paper towels. Then season with LOTS of kosher salt and some pepper. Let your seasoned steak sit out at room temperature for 45 minutes.
- 3
Dry your steak once again with paper towels. Add two tablespoons of cooking oil to the skillet and place the skillet on the stove at high heat.
- 4
Keep the heat at super high, and let the steak cook for 2 minutes without touching it. After 2 minutes, flip your steak and start to brown the other side.
- 5
Continue to flip every 2 minutes until your steak reaches an internal temperature of 130 degrees (rare). A 1 inch-thick top sirloin steak will get to 120 degrees in about 6-8 minutes.
- 6
Basting: Turn heat down to medium and add 3 Tablespoons of unsalted butter to the pan. Let the butter melt and just barely start to bubble, then add about 5 sprigs of thyme and the garlic. Then baste the steak by spooning the melted butter over the top of it, repeatedly.
- 7
After a minute, flip the steak and keep basting. Check the temperature again until 155 degrees. If not repeat until temperature is 155.
- 8
Put the steak on the cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes. Slice the meat before serving and place each slice a serving platter. Add the sprigs of thyme to the top of the steak and pour a few spoonfuls of the fat from the pan over the sliced steak.

Sirloin Steak Sirloin Steak
I’m all about the steak. I’ve made some really bad steaks in my day. A good steak only needs salt and pepper. But at MY house, ALL steaks need meat tenderizing and a good beating lol I use a tenderizing tool that pierces the meat as well. I also use a bacon press so my crust goes from end to end and my steaks are cooked consistently. Lastly, if you’re doing it indoors, use cast iron!!I’ll make 2 meals out of this piece of steak.#mycookbook
