stainless steel cookware have their advantages and disadvantages. One disadvantage is that cooked food stick to them very easily, especially meat. Meat usually will release itself after it has been brown. Therefore, you don't want to force/tear the meat. You want to give it some time and nudge it. Few other things can help lessen the problem. Make sure you have enough oil and butter often help. The idea of using butter is to let the butter proteins get burned and stick to the surface (which you can barely see) and once the surface is coated, then meat will stick to it less.
