A steaks internal temperature continues to rise as
it rests, so remove steaks from the pan about 5 to
10 degrees before reaching your desired doneness.
Use this chart to determine steak doneness when
testing with an instant read thermometer. For
example, if you desire a medium doneness steak,
remove it from the pan at 145 degrees F and it
should rise to 150-155 degrees F as it rests. The
USDA recommends cooking steaks to at least 145
degrees.
Medium Rare (soft, dark pink inside)-145 degrees F
Medium (soft, some pink inside)-160 degrees F
