What some ways you can cook a steak?
You can cook a steak a number of different ways, including pan-searing, baking, grilling, smoking, or sous vide.  Not all methods are suitable for all cuts of meat, however.  For example, leaner cuts will benefit from a hot pan sear, or sous vide, but may end up too dry if smoked.  Fattier cuts may not fair as well on a grill, due to flare ups caused by the drippings.
