From grilling, to pan-searing, to broiling, the best way to prepare a steak has never been settled – and induction cooking has added more fuel to that proverbial flame. Together, Thermador and Pat LaFrieda are educating steak enthusiasts on how to achieve a superb sear in their home kitchen with induction and its game-changing benefits, just in time for the colder winter months when outdoor cooking gets more challenging.

Thermador Induction cooking offers a myriad of benefits for preparing your steak, including:

  • Precision and Control: Induction provides precise temperature control with Thermador features like CookSmart®, ensuring that steaks are cooked properly and retain their juiciness and tenderness.
  • Efficiency: Induction heats the pan directly, eliminating energy waste and ensuring that all the heat is utilized for cooking.
  • Versatility: Thermador Induction cooktops feature flexible cooking zones that can accommodate various pots and pans and easy transfer settings like MoveMode®, allowing steak enthusiasts to experiment with different cooking methods to achieve their desired flavor profiles.
  • Consistent Results: Induction enables you to easily go from sauté to simmer thanks to features like HeatShift®, guaranteeing an evenly cooked steak.

“When it comes to cooking steak, I like to keep my methodology foolproof because perfecting it can be challenging,” said Pat LaFrieda, CEO of Pat LaFrieda Meat Purveyors. “I’ve been using induction to cook my steaks at home the last few years—especially when it gets cold in New York—and am a believer that it’s the fastest, easiest and most precise way which is why I’m excited to partner with Thermador to help take people’s steak game to the next level.”

With more than 30 years of experience in the steak industry working, and as a third-generation master butcher for Pat LaFrieda Meat Purveyors, Pat LaFrieda has more than a few tips for cooking on induction from the comfort of home, ensuring that you get the most out of your meat:

  • Reverse searing for the win: Reverse searing provides steak enthusiasts with the best edge-to-edge doneness that other methods can’t, especially when used with an induction cooktop which helps give you complete control over your steak.
  • Don’t get cute with your cut: Any steak can be cooked precisely using the Thermador Induction Innovation Collection, but my go-to is always skirt steak (it’s a longtime LaFrieda family favorite!).
  • Ditch the oil: Never use oil when cooking meat on induction, as it doesn’t burn at cooking temperatures and will prevent your steak from getting that superb sear you’re looking for!
  • It all starts with the sauce: Induction is my preferred method for cooking steak sauces, like hollandaise or bearnaise, since it maintains the optimal level of heat and eliminates the double boiler method.

“Pat’s expertise in the art of steak, combined with the cutting-edge Thermador induction technology, creates the ideal harmony between culinary mastery and innovative cooking,” said Beatriz Sandoval, Head of Marketing, Thermador. “Together, we’re elevating steak and blending tradition with induction technology for an unrivaled cooking experience. This partnership showcases our efforts to push the boundaries of culinary possibilities.”

With a commitment to quality, innovation, and customer satisfaction, the Thermador Induction Innovation Collection includes several premium products including the Freedom®Liberty® and Heritage cooktops, as well as the new Pro Harmony® Liberty® Induction Range (a 2024 CES Innovation Award Honoree), which all make it easier than ever to cook steak in the kitchen. Each of these products range in size and style to complement any kitchen and offer a number of unique features that are sure to please steak connoisseurs.
