Want the best of both worlds? Use ghee or clarified butter. It’s butter with the milk solids removed. It can handle high heat like oil, but tastes like butter.
It’s a cheat code, honestly. You get the flavor without the smoke. It’s like wearing a tuxedo to a barbecue—unnecessary but impressive.
Why This Is So Fun
Steak is primal. It’s fire and meat and salt. Adding butter or oil turns it into a science experiment. You get to play with heat, fats, and timing.
You can feel like a mad scientist. “Mwahaha, I shall baste this bad boy with thyme!” It’s silly, but it works. Cooking is supposed to be joyful.
