Air Fryer Steak
Steak is one of those things we love to cook at home. Not only is it one of our favorite meals, but it is much cheaper to do it ourselves. In the past, we would always grill our steak outside, but we have found that it can be hit or miss because of the irregularities of BBQ and one flame can ruin a perfectly good steak.
That is why we are huge fans of Air fryer steak with garlic butter on top. It creates a perfect low stress way to cook steak. Just pop it in the air fryer. Turn when it is halfway through and you have a tender on the inside crispy on the outside steak ready to go in minutes. Serve this with our crockpot mashed potatoes, and crockpot broccoli and bacon macaroni and cheese and your family will think you went to your favorite steakhouse rather than eating dinner at home.
