The ultimate steak

• 4 Woolworths T-bone steaks
• 2–3 T Woolworths duck fat, butter or ghee
• garlic butter, for serving
• sea salt, to taste

1. Smother the steaks in butter, duck fat or ghee and hang at room temperature for about 2 hours to dry out. Cook in a hot pan to your liking.

2. Place the garlic butter on the steaks, cover with foil and allow to rest before serving. Season with salt.

Cook's note: This method works perfectly every time, both on the braai or stovetop.
