If you are looking for plenty of ideas and options for Ooni meat recipes then this article will provide plenty of value for you.

Although you likely bought your Ooni oven for making pizza, it’s also pretty good at cooking all sorts of things at high heat, including some great Ooni meat recipes that are worth trying.

Ooni Steak Skillet Recipe

Steaks are perfect for cooking quickly at high heat which makes them a great option for Ooni meat recipes.

Preheat the skillet first in your Ooni oven with the door closed for best results. Small, tender cuts of steak such as Ribeye, Sirloin or Fillet will be the best choices for quick cooks.

Cook in the skillet for a few minutes a side until the steak reaches your preferred doneness levels – 130-140F or 54-57C for medium rare and 135-145 or 57-63C for medium.

You can watch the process in our Instagram video below.
