Side test: burn coarse ground pepper on cast iron and taste against fresh; it turns somewhat bitter, not intensely.

Does pepper really burn?

Salt three steaks ahead of time.

Pepper one steak (1% by weight) before it goes in the oven; reverse sear all three to 125F.

Pepper the second steak after it comes out of the oven, before searing; sear all three in a pan to a good crust on each side.

Pepper the third steak after searing. Slice and taste each, rinsing the palate with milk and water between.
