i dont have a grill so i heard you can broil them in the oven... HOW? lol i mean it common sense yes but my boyfriend likes his steaks rare... and i dont know how to cook them? Any help....
 
If he likes it rare, you can get away with it, but it's difficult to cook more than that, without burning the outside to cinders.

Turn on the broiler (usually only high or low settings...I use low) and put in the seasoned steak. Open the drawer after every 30 sec and see how far it's progressed, then turn and do the same. With the broiler, since it's so close to the flame or element, you have to keep a sharp eye on them.
 
you can broil them, but in my experience they get too browned on the outside before they're cooked to temperature. if you broil them, try to keep the steaks a couple racks below the broiler until they're almost cooked the way you like them, then just move them up under the broiler to brown them and finish the cooking. or you can pan-fry them, which i have done also and is very tasty. or you can do a combination of the two; start them in the frying pan, and finish them under the broiler to get them a little more browned.
