They typically broil, not bake. Most home broilers don't get near as hot, but can do a passable job.
So, an Easy Bake oven is out of the question?  Use a CFL.

Medium for me and the family. First off, gotta start with a good piece of meat, which isn't cheap. If you want a great steak, be prepared to spend some $$$$. Nobody can make a so-so cut of meat taste like a prime cut of meat. Agreed. But, if you have a Costco or Sam's card, a spare fridge and a little time you can make some affordable high quality steaks at home. Home steak aging. Mike
Know fat, know flavor. No fat, no flavor.
I tried going vegan, but then realized it was a big missed steak.

if you don't flip, it will be a rainbow from brown to pink, and that just doesn't sound good, no matter how you spin it... Sounds like a freaky tattoo.
If you take the time it takes, it takes less time.

Thermometer is more accurate, of course, but this works. Internal thermometer? I push the damn steaks with my fork or flipper, when it feels right, it is. When it feels firm.....you missed your window. I learned this method from one of my BILs when he was cooking commercially. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.traegergrills.com/teamtraeger/image.axd?picture=2013%2f3%2fhow+to+test+steak+done-ness.jpg)

Rare...really rare.
Like a good vet could bring it back to life , rare?
Is best done on a 500° cast iron skillet.

Super rare isn't that tender as it parts to the tooth. It's just squishy, but chewy.

Not really.
But everyone has this own taste.
All the girls in the house , 4 of them, will turn this nose up to a 120° piece of red meat. Beef out deer.
