Rest your steak after cooking for about 10 minutes, depending on the size of the steak. This will help the juices redistribute and make the steak more tender and flavorful. To rest your steak properly, pull your steak approximately 10 degrees earlier than your desired finishing temperature. The steak will continue to cook after it is removed from your pan or grill. Following this process also helps it to come up to a more consistent internal temperature.
