How to Cook Steak in the Oven The Manual - The Essential Guide for Men 2019-04-29 | It is possible to cook a steak in the oven — and for the steak to be delicious. To be more specific, it is possible to finish your steak in the oven. You do not want to cook your steak entirely in the oven, as it’ll turn out a sub-par cut of meat. When it comes to the manliest of meals, is there anything better than a well-cooked steak (not well done, mind you)? We think not. When cooked properly, a steak is meaty, juicy, a little fatty, and just plain perfect. Our favorite way to cook steak is on the grill, but sometimes that isn’t a possibility. Maybe you’ve run out of charcoal or gas and the store isn’t open or maybe it’s four degrees below zero outside and not even steak can inspire the fortitude in you to brave that out. Sometimes, you just have to move your steak operations inside.Read more: themanual.com/food-and-drink/how-to-cook-steak-in-the-ovenSocial media:Facebook -facebook.com/themanualguideTwitter - twitter.com/themanualguidePinterest - pinterest.com/manualguideInstagram - http://instagram.com/themanualguide

BioLites BaseCamp is the King of Grills The Manual - The Essential Guide for Men 2016-10-10 | BioLite BaseCamp is so much more than a camping stove. It converts heat into usable electricity for large format cooking or charging. So as you’re burning branches and small pieces of firewood, the heat flows through a thermoelectric generator which powers a fan and sends surplus electricity to the USB charging port. Simply plug in your electronics to juice them up, or use the heat-generated electricity to power the included flexible USB light to illuminate a nighttime grill session. BaseCamp also features an internal fan that forces air back into the burn chamber which improves combustion to create a cleaner, more productive burn. An ashtray below the fuel rack catches debris to keep your campsite clean.The BaseCamp is small and portable, equipped with a carrying handle and folding legs for adjustable cooking height. It’s also designed with a one-touch lever that instantly transforms the cooking surface to either concentrate or disperse the flame. We’ve used it to grill everything from veggie kabobs to sausages, but BaseCamp has an additional option that makes it stand out from the rest—a pizza stone. Aptly dubbed the PizzaDome, this attachment includes a triangular base to evenly distribute the flame, a domed lid and a ceramic pizza stone that will perfectly crisp up your favorite pies.For more information, check out the full post with recipe here: http://bit.ly/2drqoOJ
