Can you use ribeye for stew?

When it comes to beef stew meat, it's true! If you try using a tender cut of beef, that slow-cooked stew will turn out chewy and tough every time. ... If ribeyes, top sirloins, and beef tenderloin are calling to you at the butcher counter, put away your beef stew recipe and serve up steak and potatoes instead.

What is better stewing steak or braising steak?

“The key difference between braising and stewing,” he explains, “is the cut of meat. Braising is for cheaper, larger cuts of meat, such as beef cheeks. Stewing would use smaller cuts of meat that are uniform in size and it's key to stewing that the meat is totally immersed in liquid. ... We grew up on braising and stews.”

Do you use beef stock or beef broth for beef stew?

Ideally, you'll use beef stock, but beef broth is fine too. Veal stock would be divine. Instant bouillon paste will add flavor and is perfectly acceptable. Indeed, even if all you have is chicken stock, it will still be better than water and won't make your beef stew taste like chicken soup.

Which is better on steak thyme or rosemary?

I generally prefer steak pretty simple with salt and pepper but if using herbs I definitely prefer thyme. Rosemary and thyme have very distinctly different flavors, rosemary is very strong.

Can I use dried rosemary for steak?

This dry rub is so easy to make, and gives lamb or beef a gorgeous flavour. Particularly nice on barbecued meats.

How do you reduce smoke when cooking steak?

Remove your preheated pan from the oven and immediately drop your steak on it. Turn the heat on your burner to medium or medium-high as the pan begins to cool to maintain the temperature of the pan. The result will be a nice even sear with as little smoke as possible. Of course, there will still be some smoke.
