BACON FAT BASTED STEAK

Steps:

• Remove the steak from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking.
• Heat a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the steak dry and season generously with kosher salt and pepper on all sides. Stand the steak up on the strip of fat in the skillet and hold it with tongs until the fat renders and the skillet is slick, about 2 minutes.
• Place the steak flat in the skillet and sear until deep brown on one side, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn and cook the other side until starting to brown, 2 to 3 more minutes. Reduce the heat to low. Add the rosemary and garlic to the skillet and spoon the bacon fat over the steak. Continue cooking, tilting the skillet every so often and spooning the bacon fat up over the top of the steak, until a thermometer inserted sideways into the thickest part registers 120 degrees F for medium rare, about 1 minute.
• Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes. Slice the steak against the grain. To serve, spoon the rosemary-infused bacon fat over the slices and sprinkle with flaky salt.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Generously salt and pepper both sides of the steak. Wrap the steak with the bacon and secure with a toothpick.
• Heat an ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the butter and olive oil. When melted, add the steak to the skillet and sear on both sides until a really nice color, about 1 minute per side.
• Remove the skillet from the stovetop and place into the oven to finish cooking. Cook until medium rare, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

FRIED BACON

Steps:

• Heat a cast-iron or other heavy skillet over medium heat. When hot, add bacon strips in a single layer. Cook until browned on bottom, 3 to 4 minutes.

• Drain and reserve fat for another use, and repeat with remaining bacon. Drain bacon on paper towels. Serve immediately.

PAN-FRIED STEAK

Steps:

• Heat a large heavy-bottomed skillet (preferably cast iron) over high 5 minutes. Generously season steaks with salt and pepper. Add 1/2 teaspoon butter to pan, then immediately top with one steak. Repeat with remaining 1/2 teaspoon butter and steak. Cook without moving steaks until a golden brown crust forms, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn and cook 2 minutes more for rare, or 3 to 4 minutes more for medium-rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes. Slice steaks against the grain; serve with sauce, if desired.
• Heat a 10- or 12-inch cast-iron skillet over high heat. Season the steaks liberally with salt and pepper. Seconds before adding a steak, drop 1/2 teaspoon of the butter into the pan and immediately top with the steak. Repeat with the remaining steak. Sear for 3 minutes without moving the steak (to form a crust). Turn and cook for 2 minutes for rare or 3 to 4 for medium rare. Remove the steaks from the pan and let them rest on a board or platter for a few minutes before serving.

STICKY THYME & MUSTARD BACON CHOPS

Steps:

• Season the bacon chops with pepper (no need to add extra salt). Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan, then sizzle and brown the chops over a medium heat for 5 mins, turning once. Lift onto a plate.
• Add the butter to the pan. Once it looks foamy, stir in the onion and thyme, and fry very gently for 15 mins until the onion is soft and golden. Stir in the marmalade, mustard and stock, then simmer for 2 mins until it starts to thicken to a sauce. Add the chops back to the pan, simmer for 3 mins more, then serve.
