Introduction

It’s common knowledge that well done steaks take longer to cook than rare or medium rare steaks. But how much longer? And how exactly do you know when your steak is done? If you’re looking for a simple answer, here it is: Cook a two-inch thick steak for about ten minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F at its thickest point. For example, if you were cooking a two inch thick steak, it would take about ten minutes to cook it until it was well done. The secret? Knowing just how long each type of steak takes from start to finish will help ensure that your next meal isn’t overcooked!

Let’s face it, most of us love a steak cooked well done. But how long do you really need to cook your steak for this desired level of doneness?

The trick to cooking a well-done steak is getting it browned on the outside and cooked through on the inside. The first step in achieving this is knowing how long to cook your steak for:

For two-inch thick steaks, you should expect a cooking time of 10 minutes per side (20 minutes total) at 400 degrees Fahrenheit. If your meat is three inches thick or more, add an additional five minutes per side (10 minutes total).

The simple answer is that you need to cook the steak for about five minutes per inch of thickness for well done steaks.

The simple answer is that you need to cook the steak for about five minutes per inch of thickness for well done steaks. The thicker the steak, the longer it will take to cook. The thinner the steak, the shorter amount of time needed.

For example, if you were cooking a two-inch-thick steak, it would take about ten minutes to cook it until it was well done.

For example, if you were cooking a two-inch-thick steak on a grill that was set to 350 F (180 C), it would take about ten minutes to cook it until it was well done. This can vary depending on the temperature of your grill and how long you want to wait before eating your steak.

Well done steaks take longer to cook than rare or medium rare steaks.

Well done steaks take longer to cook than rare or medium rare steaks. The reason for this is that well done steak has been cooked to an internal temperature of 140F, while the other two steak types should be cooked to 120F and 125F respectively.

The cooking time will depend on the thickness of your steak and whether you are using an oven or a pan on top of the stovetop. If you have a thick piece of meat in front of you (1 inch or more), then it may take longer than five minutes per side with high heat so make sure not only do you have some patience but also some good music playing in the background!

Conclusion

With this information, you should be able to make a well done steak that tastes great and is cooked to perfection!
