Make your pan hotter next time you're making a steak.

I had the nice grill lines going but they disappeared when i basted the steak in some boiling marinade

Didn't sear enough then, that's just fond that stuck to the steak and then washed off

If they were actual grill marks, they wouldn't have faded away

For what purpose? All you manage to do with that is wash off the spices and caramelization on the meat.

I could get it if you'd use that stuff to make a gravy but there are just resting juices on the plate.

You don't season steak until after it's cooked, idiot

terrible sear, just a hair undercooked but still perfectly acceptable. >>8072310 is right, turn up the heat

Fuck what all these other anon are saying. Looks great, OP.
The most memorable meal was a perfectly rare piece of prime rib my uncle had cooked with a side of purple fingerling potatoes and asparagus and a cup of cheap red wine. It was on a fishing trip up north and I felt like a king.
