Notes
Steak Options: Ribeye offers rich marbling, while NY strip is leaner with a firm bite. Use what you love.
Double Fry Tip: The first low-temp fry cooks the inside. The second high-temp fry creates that golden crunch.
Flavor Boost: Add rosemary or thyme to the butter while basting the steak for an herby aroma.
