No, any kind of meat should never be allowed to come to room temperature. It's unneccessary and can be harmful. Thaw the meat in the fridge and leave it there until ready to use. Yes. If you take the steak out of the fridge some time before cooking so that it is at room temperature when you cook it, then it will be more tender.

Most good chefs recommend bringing meat to room temperature before

cooking.

However, you don't want to let it sit at room temperature for very long.

This is how food born disease comes to be.

Allow steak to come to room temperature before grilling. Seasoned - in a zip lock bag on the counter for 15 - 20 minutes or so.

Can you roast a porterhouse steak?

You can start by putting the steak on the center of the coals or right above the burner. Once you place the porterhouse steak on the grill, you should hear a sizzling sound. If you don't hear the sound, it indicates that the grill isn't hot enough to grill the steak. Porterhouse steaks are best cooked if they are turned over a minmum number of times. Each side of the steak must be cooked for about 10 minutes. You can use a thermometer to actually check if the meat is done. You can check a steak temperature chart to know about it.

Should you pull steak out of the fridge before cooking?

yes slaping the steak directly on the fire/pan will make sure your steak is grey and chewy on the outside and under cooked in the middle. you want your steak to be room temperature at least before you start but for a truly wonderful steak follow the directions given by America's test kitchen cookbook. they figured out a way that basically simulates the curing processes used by the steakhouses 1) take steak and let it reach room temp 2) preheat your oven to 200 F or whatever the lowest setting is for your oven 3) let your steak sit in the oven for about an hour 4) pat dry with a paper towel 5) rubbed with oil and salt+pepper 6) sear the steak over high heat/flame and cook to your preference ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- the sciene behind this is that enzymes in the steak will work to make it more tender at certain temperatures and the drier you make your steak the more evenly it will cook, espcially for thick steaks.

Is frozen fish that has thawed at room temp for 24 hours and still feels cold safe to eat?

There are food safety issues with thawing at room temperature and it is not recommended. If it is in a sealed package, it could be quick-thawed under cool running water - then immediately cooked. Or it could be thawed in the microwave - and immediately cooked. Or it could be cooked from frozen. Should you choose to thaw by any means other than in the fridge, it should be cooked immediately upon thawing and not stored for cooking later.
