Excellent method if you do not have access to a grill or the weather is bad. The flavor is great the method is perfect. Yes, it can get smoky as with any method of direct broiling, and yes you need to catch the dripping in something. And yes you need to pay attention as something may catch on fire, but it is inside your oven so do not panic turn off the broiler take the steak out and put some baking soda on the fire and close the door. Get a grip people do not complain about the obvious. And to the person who tried or wanted to try to cook meat in a microwave...... in a bag..... Seriously.... if you do not have an oven buy a toaster oven and get rid of that microwave... or eat out...

I am very new to the cooking thing. Never had to on my own before. This recipe seemed easy enough. It was. Just one thing. Make sure you unplug your smoke alarms first. There is entirly too much smoke with this!!!

I didn't use my regular oven. I used my flavorwave oven. It turned out great.

I did not like it at all. I did the directions like Alton suggested and the steaks turned out overdone to my liking. The method was way too messy and my oven nearly caught on fire as a result of the steaks being so close to the broiler. I won't be doing this one again anytime soon.

Alton knows steak! This is the second steak recipe of his I've tried and both did not disappoint. I was hesitant about putting the steak directly on the rack, so I made an aluminum foil "campfire" pan by crimping the edges, and put the steak on that. I omitted the lower rack drip pan foil. Also used canola oil instead of olive oil, since it has a higher smoke point temperature. Otherwise cooked it as directed, including moving the rack, which was not a problem. My family did not miss the grill marks, and it tasted like it was cooked outside. Plus, cleanup was a breeze. I did put on the exhaust fan above the stove to vent out the smoke, as it will get a little smoky, which adds to the flavor.

I'm always worried my steaks will turn out undercooked and they end up overcooked! I followed this recipe to a T and the sirloin turned out AWESOME. Loved it. Has anyone tried this method with other cuts of beef? I'd like to try it again with other steaks, especially since sirloin isn't always on sale :
Thanks!

This is one of my favorite shows and the recipe if followed as directed does not dissapoint. It was great for that grilled taste inside. Use a drip pan or foil as he directs and there is no smoke. Very easy and quick! Thanks for more great cooking instructions Alton Brown!

Nick Stellino does a prime rib sitting a a pan full of rock salt. The idea is that that salt absorbs the fat and reduces all the smoking in the oven. I keep a bag around just for this reason. If you put a layer for rock salt (I just use pure rock salt - no additives please for water softeners in the drip pan, I would think that this would help quite a bit.

My husband made this steak for me last night and it was amazing. My husband has great attention to detail like Alton Brown which is why it probably turned out so well. It's important to put a cookie sheet or something under the steaks to keep it safe and less smoky. If not the steak will obviously drip juices that catch fire or smoke.
