steak preparation?

forgive me if this is a stupid question but what's the difference between pan-searing a steak, and sear-roasting it?

I mean, i know sear-roasting involves a pan AND the oven, but what's the difference in flavor? is one better than the other? which is better for fillet mignon (tonight's dinner)?

thanks

Re: steak preparation?

No Idea. It sounds like the same thing no?

You sear it in the pan on both sides to lock in juices and put it in the oven to finish cooking.

You got me on this one


I say if you have a grill, throw it on there!
