Attempting to cook STEAK for the FIRST TIME

LEWIS ( apologize if I spelled it wrong) it wasn't too bad for little experience. I can give you a couple of quick tips that I guarantee will raise your level next time you try steaks ... . season meat with all your preferred spices EXCEPT salt **till the end ** PREHEAT YOUR PAN '... always make sure pans hot...not warm ...hot. you want to sear the meat as quickly as possible ..this creates that crust and doesn't let the juice spill out through the crust keeping inside and in turn tenderizing the inside . GREASE PAN LIGHTLY : unless frying very little grease is needed ... The grease is just a lubricant when making steaks ...too much grease and Fry's and boils the meat and you'll never get a seared crust with too much liquid and since there's no sear even more liquid will cook out and cause the steak to be chewy . Sear one side turn sear other side cook desired time take it out if heat to rest which causes all the heated juices to settle back through the rest of the meat while there resting you can take this time to add the salt to taste .. I ran a couple kitchens while u was going to college or y'all's university. Anyway hope that helps brother . Your almost at 100,000 on your other channel ... Hope you surpass your expectations . We're all cheering for you !!

You have two different cuts of Beef. You put on enough Salt to preserve a slab of fish. When you started, you should have put on less than a tsp of oil. Rub it on the top - ( always put the salt and pepper in the palm of your hand [separately] and take it in small pinches to spread) put the unseasoned side of one stake on the seasoned side of the other. Then do the reverse. Way too much oil in the pan. Put in about a tablespoon in the pan - Heat high til you see a slight shimmer in the oil. Remove pan an wipe out excess oil from pan. put the pan on the heat and put your steaks for 1.5 min each side. This is only to sear. lower the heat below med. for about 2 min. until you get to your pref. Don't put any steak sauce or any other flavoring until your either setting to rest or serving. Her steak was thicker than yours so you shouldn't have done yours for so long. Cooking is supposed to be fun. Don't get so frustrated.

[@treezelbub3064]

I'VE NEVER SEEN PEPPERCORN SAUCE SERVED SAY FOR ONCE IN MY LIFETIME IN THE U.S. I THINK REALLY THE REASON LEWIS' STEAK TURNED OUT RUBBERY WAS THAT HE OVER COOKED IT. ALL MEAT THAT IS OVER COOKED TURNS RUBBERY.

[@buckeyeclayfan]

This urge to cook must be from watching all these American food videos. Looks like a good start (I never cooked a steak in my life). Like your hatless look.

Now this is most entertaining ❤😅😂😅 absolutely hilarious 😆😂😆

[@michaellott5007]

From the comments a lot of people don't cook. LOL. Parents started me cooking at 5, glad they did. Some oil in medium heat pan, salt pepper, or a season all, nothing else needed more money the more tender the meat, to get lines use a grill pan, meat tenderizer doesn't do that LOL

[@F.RichardRobinson]

Need a left handed peeler. With thin skinned potatoes you don't need to peel them at all. Just Wash well and cut like chips. Then put them in the air fryer.

[@countrygardensns9262]

Left handed peeler? Seriously? A peeler is one of those things that actually works both ways. Lefty here, so I know.

English people have no reason to be in a kitchen they don't understand following directions on anything, they assume that the English way is best because it always has been and why question it .

[@storminight]

OMG IM SO EXCITED! 😂 Awww I’d of helped you Lewis. You did okay. You need to let the chat help you! 😂 Sirloin is hard to cook, it’s a tuff meat to begin with. I never boil my chips before cooking. Them them in a bowl with a little oil and seasoning and mix them up, then air fry them. Izzy is cute, I’m glad she came on.

[@epicgamertool]

Just got recommended this video, absolute gold 😂❤

[@domingo954]

Lewis, the first step in any kitchen is prep. Cut or chop and season. When you are ready to cook, all you need to do is mix ingredients as appropriate. TIP: potatoes are starchy. If you peel and chop them before cooking, put them in a bowl of water and soak them. At least several hours. Sometimes prep work starts hours before you start cooking.

[@lennybuttz2162]

What? No one soaks their potatoes for 2 or 3 hours. The only reason people put them in water is if they are making a large amount and the water keeps the potato from turning gray or brown, that's it. You don't need to soak them water for any other reason. LOL Dude what are you doing if you need to prep for 2 hours before you cook? Sure if you're making Thanksgiving dinner not a Tuesday night supper. LOL

[@daniellek.9776]

This is like watching the cooking scene on Bridget Jones.....waiting for the string soup....lol

[@pampietro8980]

Lewis, you need to calm down, have fun with it and laugh more😂

[@scottbmedic]

I’m a guy and my mom instilled in me how to cook starting before I was 10, because she said there might be times when you don’t have a girl and you can’t afford eating out doesn’t mean you should have to eat sh!t

[@annamariavalatka636]

Great mom

[@robynbeach3198]

That was my Grandma's philosophy and mine with my boys! No idea why my mom didn't think of that with my brothers...

[@kierontemnov2452]

Great mom indeed! It's something you need to learn if you move out of "hotel mama". And eating out is often way more expensive than making your own stuff. But don't agree with that a girl HAS to cook for you. It's a skill that everybody should have.

[@madduck2323]

I wouldn’t put paprika on a steak.

[@portialancaster3442]

The thickness of the steak determines the cooking time. A one inch thick steak cooks faster than a thicker steak.

[@MichaelBryant420]

For the thickness of the steak you had, 1 minute each side in a pan with olive oil on just below med high.

[@heavenishere416]

I am only 13 minutes in and omg I did not realize that women say the same things whilst their man is cooking 😂 I tell my husband the EXACT same things. "Did you wash your hands?" **Something falls on the floor** "You better throw that away bc I'm not eating that." 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Team Izzy 💗

[@theresacrubaugh2095]

Beyong salt and pepper you could put garlic powder on the steak. I don't know if you have these in the UK but I use McCormack's Montreal Steak Seasoning or their Chicago Steak Seasoning. And if you want, you or Izzy can use butter as the oil and put in brandy with whatever seasoning you want. I saute the meat in brandy. And you two are so cute together!

[@Rb-li1cb]

[@eliza3716]

[@brianbowen2512]

start with a hot pan. pre heat the pan. it should be hot before placing the meat. when the juices run clear, the center is at medium. you'll see this after the turn. bub. you're great. you did well. next times get easier

[@francesWheeler-sx3bt]

Dude 😮 I thought you got hurt 😞 and it was a giant bandage!!!! lol 😂

[@canecasavettes85]

Cooking steak is easy Lewis! Sear all sides with whatever seasoning you want, then finish on the grill or oven to cook the rest!🤣🤣🤣Thyme. Oregano parsley , maybe onion salt (just a little) kosher salt and make over fresh cut garlic!

[@camodanshow]

Great attempt. I love your videos. This was awesome to watch. We all start somewhere. I want to send you some seasonings and some of my favorite snacks just don't know how to send to you in the uk from the US.

[@katttmandoo]

Also less marbling means tougher steak. So you would want to try and help tenderize it before cooking.

[@katttmandoo]

I will say it’s too much oil. Especially in the beginning because you can’t get a good sear with alot of liquid in the skillet. You’ve also got to think about the liquid coming off of the steak that will add to any liquid in the pan… you should try a larger skillet to keep from crowding. Sear in a very small amount of olive oil then cook it without adding any more oil and towards the end put in the butter and thyme to baste.

[@randallpatterson7346]

Just saw your video guy, lol Well I now know you won’t be cooking when you come to the states :-) We need more of these vids

[@Winterof62]

You need to buy a small propane/butane BBQ grill for your backyard & throw those steaks on! Yum! Also the potatoes wrapped in foil or even grill sweet corn!! Make a quick salad & BAM , dinner!!✌️🇺🇸

[@SugahShy]

You two should come to the USA and let us teach you the ways of the well seasoned steak.

[@Losingbraincells777]

Lewis, We love you for the same reason your gf loves you! However, you definitely are not a cook but, anyone can learn to love it!!! Let’s watch more!!! This is to die for!!!😂😂😂

[@timorr2399]

I put my potatoes in a zip lock bag, put about a table spoon of oil, sprinkle in my seasonings, then zip it, shake it up to mix oil and seasonings, then dump in air fryer. (Dont boil first also).

[@beesnort3163]

Check out some more steak videos, you will get there don’t worry. Bigger pan, a hot pan first, the fat strip will tend to curl in that so you can cut it so your steak won’t curl up and cook unevenly. Another tip is coat (not ridiculously) with salt and let it draw out the moisture in the steak. This will season the steak throughout. Good try though! You’ll get there! ❤

[@andrewjohns8442]

I worked in kitchens for 17 years, the cross contamination is driving me insane!

[@kaylanichols7343]

I know I am late but I cannot use a vegetable peeler on the potatoes as it takes just too damn long and I’m from the south so I’ve always just used a knife

[@CCCARRACK]

The reason I learned to cook was cause as a kid my dad had a rule "whoever cooks doesn't clean", so if you cook for someone else they do the cleaning, if you cook for just yourself you still have to do the cleaning, and I've established that rule with everyone I've lived with

[@scarrab76]

You can microwave a potato for 8-10 minutes and it's perfect.

[@KTKacer]

If you want 'baked' potato, yes. I prefer to do mine 1/2 in the microwave then 1/2 in the airfryer for a perfect (but faster) 'baked' potato. so 4-5 mins in microwave then 15-20 in air fryer to crisp up skin & finish it off!

[@katttmandoo]

You can make a compound basting butter with old bay which has paprika in it and it’s pretty good .

[@sharon-zg5kb]

Food for thought no matter what you are going to cook you should first get all the pots pans food and spices out on the counter before you start Get everything you are going to use so it should be ready.

[@pddaawwgg]

Came across this gem video. This is on par with Quin69's cooking stream he has done. Can't believe people don't know how to cook. Don't they have cooking class in schools across the pond? Good laughs, great video!

[@tampachaz0870]

Amaretto and Coke....mixed and WITHOUT ICE?! How British. Not to continue picking, BUT why hasn't that steak been marinating in seasoning except the plastic wrap it was packaged in? To cook like an American, those steaks should have been tenderized and placed in a bath of seasoning (sea salt, fresh ground peppercorn, rosemary, minced garlic, a few dashes of Worcestershire, and 1 cup of lager, for example) and kept in the fridge since last night or this morning. You're knackered after peeling potatoes? Wee and potatoes... must be a Birmingham thing! Bless him. I hope Izzy had a fire extinguisher within hand's reach! To quote Lewis, "OH MY DAYS!" Thank you for this stream Lewis, it was a perfect way to combat a crazy work day here in Florida.

[@tammycenter8757]

For a great steak tenderize it then marinade it in bourbon with some garlic for an hour. Then brush it with some melted butter. Put some pepper on it after you have brushed it with butter. Has to be real butter not margarine. After you have done this , then you cook it. Never salt meat before cooking. It dries the meat out. Put the salt on after it is cooked. It is 3 minutes each side if the steak is 1 1/2 inches thick. For those steaks you cooked it should have been a minute and a half on each side. I prefer to pan sear mine in butter unless I have the grill going outside and then it is grilled. Flame broiled. Yummy.

[@katttmandoo]

Don’t listen to the salt haters in the comments… you need to season generously the bigger the piece of meat… all I’m gonna say is you need to look up Guga on the tubes…. He’s got 3 channels but he’s the “steak” guy I’d refer you too. Season ALL sides generously. Keep it basic… salt pepper garlic… (no oil on steak) hit it with a steak seasoning mix too if you like. Put a little oil in the pan and get it hot, THEN put your steaks in. Sear a little on both sides. Then turn down and flip multiple times to cook evenly… melt a little butter with thyme in the pan and continue to baste with said butter and thyme.

[@debidiaz1362]

I’m sorry I’m late to the party but I just found this and it’s hilarious, and I bet he left the dishes in the sink for the reason most of us men do. Because we know women don’t have patience for us and they’ll keep looking at the dirty dishes and finally say he’s never going to wash them I’ll just do them myself😅 It’s just l😢the easiest way for a man to get out of housework is to do housework, but do it in a way your partner can’t stand like vacuuming without overlapping or crooked and very shortly she will grab the vacuum and say can’t you do anything right. Never mind I’ll do it and you can sit down with a cold beer and watch your favorite football team. This video looks like Lewis found a way to guarantee he’ll never have to do any cooking again 😂

As far as cooking, and seasoning, it's like anything new you'll do: you'll suck at it at first, but the more you do it, the better you'll be. -- Also, don't turn down on learning new things to get better in seasoning food, in this example.

Welp! That was mighty Brave of you, Lewis!!! You did far better than many I’ve seen in my days!!! The strangest thing I came across, was a young lady, newly married, wanting to make a dinner for her hubby-not only did she not know lettuce had to be cleaned, she had no clue of how to do it, or what else was needed to make a salad!!! Made for a Very long cooking session, bc I didn’t do any of it For her, which I know is what she wanted!!! She was happy & proud after dinner, bc she Did so it all!!! My youngest daughter(38!😬) hit a bunch of people, at different times, who didn’t know what a grater was for, much less that cheese blocks could be grated, & why it’s way better than already grated cheese, especially when cooking with it!!! My homemade breads have always blown people away, but I think the funniest was a person afraid to try it,”bc you’re supposed to buy bread at the store!”, & couldn’t figure out how it was possible, seeings I didn’t have the automated machines they’d seen on some tv show!!! She Loved my bread!!! You and Izzy(sp?) need to get into the kitchen together, & try making things neither are familiar to how it’s made!!! Nothing greater in the kitchen, than a couple bonding over shared lives for food!!! There’s a couple over there- “Mr H and friends”, who’ve gone crazy for cooking American foods, & even had a Texan made smoker shipped to them recently, that I wish y’all would watch, but meet up as well!!! They’re a Great place to start, for the American foods you want to try!!!🥰

[@JonBlaze1014]

It pained me to watch the steaks being cooked. As an amatuer home chef who has cooked hundreds of steaks in my day let me give you a couple pointers. 1. That was way too much oil, both before and during cooking. You only need a light coating of oil, your steak shouldn't be simmering in oil lol 2. You can do whatever seasonings you want but I usually just stick with salt, pepper. Maybe a little garlic powder. 3. NEVER put steaks in a cold pan. You should heat up the pan first over medium high heat. You want your steak to get a good sear on the outside while staying tender on the inside. 4. If you add butter, put it on the pan, not the steak and once it melts spoon it over the steak. 5. When you let your steak rest, I prefer using a wooden cutting board and then I cover them with a metal bowl. I have a great method to tell how done your steak is but it's hard to explain in a textual message. First locate the big muscle in your palm, right below your thumb. If you touch your index finger to your thumb, the firmness of this muscle mimics the firmness of a rare steak. The middle finger mimics the firmness of a medium rare steak, ring finger for medium and then pinky for well done. I learned that from an amazing chef and it's always worked perfectly for me.

[@treezelbub3064]
