🥘 Baked Chuck Steak Ingredients

All it takes is two simple ingredients to cook up a delicious steak that is packed full of beefy and savory flavor! If you don’t have any beef tallow available (although I highly recommend using it), you can substitute it for extra virgin olive oil.

• Beef Tallow – ½ tablespoon of beef tallow.
• Chuck Steak – 8 ounces of chuck steak.
• Steak seasoning – ½ tablespoon of my homemade steak seasoning (to taste). You can also use your favorite brand of steak seasonings if you’d like.

🔪 How To Make Baked Chuck Steak

Cooking a baked chuck steak is perfect for beginners since there is light preparation and only 3 ingredients to work with! Take out a cast iron skillet (or another heavy-bottomed pan), some measuring spoons, and a meat thermometer to get started.

This recipe will yield 1 serving. If you’re needing a larger amount, you can cook more steaks if you work in batches!

1. Prep. Heat a cast iron skillet (or any oven-safe, heavy-bottomed pan) over high heat with the ½ tablespoon of beef tallow and preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C).
2. Season. Use a few paper towels to pat dry your 8 ounces of chuck steak and then season it liberally on all sides with the ½ tablespoon of steak seasoning.
3. Sear steak. Place your steak into the cast iron skillet and sear it for 2-3 minutes on each side. Quickly sear the edges by lifting and turning the steak with kitchen tongs.
4. Bake steak. Open your preheated oven and place the skillet with the steak on the center rack and bake the steak for 10-15 minutes at 400°F (205°C). Use a digital meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the steak to make sure it’s cooked to your preference. *See notes
5. Rest and serve. When your chuck steak is done cooking, move it to a plate to rest at room temperature and cover it with a loosely tented piece of aluminum for at least 5 minutes before you serve.

Serve your delicious chuck steak with any of your favorite steak side dishes like my sauteed asparagus with cherry tomatoes and mashed potatoes! For more tasty ideas, check out this article on what to serve with steak! Enjoy!

💭 Angela’s Tips & Recipe Notes

• Let your chuck steak rest for about an hour prior to cooking if you can.
• Season your steak as you are letting it rest or the night before. This is called a ‘dry brine’ and will give you the best flavor results.
• To determine whether your steak is done, use a digital meat thermometer. Take the meat out of the oven around 5°F before your preferred temperature. Your steak will continue to warm up as it’s resting- this is termed “carryover cooking”.
  • Rare: 115-120°F (46-49°C)
  • Medium-Rare: 120-125°F (49-52°C)
  • Medium: 130-135°F (54-57°C)
  • Medium-Well: 140-145°F (60-63°C)
  • Well: 150-155°F (66-68°C)

🥡 Storing & Reheating

Place any leftover steak in a sealed container or a storage bag in your refrigerator and eat within 3 days. To freeze, wrap the leftovers in plastic wrap and store it in a freezer-safe container or heavy-duty plastic bag. Eat within 3 months. Thaw your frozen steak in the refrigerator overnight before reheating.

Reheating Baked Chuck Steak

Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C) and cook your leftover steak until it is fully heated through to your liking. For extra tips and tricks, check out my reheating steak guide here!
