Rare steak should be cooked to an internal temperature of 125 degrees, medium-rare should be cooked to 135 degrees, and medium should be cooked to 145 degrees.
Another way to check if a steak is done is by looking at the color of the meat. Rare steak will be red in the center, while medium-rare will be pink. Medium steak will be brown throughout, and well-done steak will be dark brown or black.
Finally, you can check for doneness by pressing on the steak with your finger. A rare steak will feel soft, while a medium-rare steak will feel slightly firm.

How to Make Blackstone Steak
First, start by patting the steaks dry with paper towels.
Season the steak with salt and pepper and let sit for at least one hour at room temperature.
Preheat one side of your griddle to about 300° F (medium-low) and the other side to 500° F (medium-high heat). The temperatures don’t have to be exact, but I recommend using an infrared thermometer to make sure they are close.
Add your steaks to the lower cook temp side of the griddle, and cook for 7 to 10 minutes.
When the international temperature reaches 100° F, move the steaks to the hot side of the griddle for an easy sear.
Sear for 4 to 5 minutes, turning the steaks often, until they are browned and the internal temperature is 130° F for medium-rare. The browning process will happen very quickly, so make sure you keep an eye on the steaks.
(The total time it takes to cook the meat will depend on the size and cuts of steak you are using. Use your favorite thermometer to ensure a perfect cook every time.)
Top the steaks with slices of compound butter, and allow to rest under foil or a dome for 5 minutes before serving.
If desired, serve with your favorite steak sauce.
