I had an air-fryer long before i started to put steak in it, i just assumed it couldn’t come close to doing it myself in a pan… Till we tried it after an exhausting day. Never went back.
I would also still highly recommend finishing it off in a pan but overal the process is much easier and the steaks reliably good.
Yeap, kinda the epiphany on my end. Had a steak I was wanting to reverse sear but already had the oven set for something else. Figured the air fryer was just a fancy oven and gave it a shot. Steak came out better than normal and have been doing it ever since.
I haven’t tried finishing it in the air fryer yet, been worried it might not sear correctly since it’s not getting direct heat.

Try it on a smoker.
Ain’t nobody got any time for that. Imo smokers are overrated for the amount of time and effort you have to deal with them.
If I want to do a fancy steak I’ll usually just do a sous vide.
