Things genuinely got suspenseful when you almost lost that last steak off the grill.

[@GugaFoods]

You notice that... 😂😂😂 I almost LOST IT.... 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@GremiasV]

not gonna lie, i got a little scared.

[@roncarhome1974]

I noticed the same thing too! ...and I told myself, "Why is this guy using such wimpy tongs?!" Lol

[@TWEAKLET]

ya the tongs look like a giant pair of tweezers but seemed to have trouble holding the steaks a normally shaped pair would have a wider set end where you hands would be thus more leverage

Wow what a long way Guga has come. Congrats on the great consistent content

[@davidglicher7819]

Do a butter sear experiment. Clarified Butter, Ghee, Salted Butter, Unsalted Butter.

[@GugaFoods]

You really want to see that?

[@VenomTheCat]

yes. i am going to say that butter with a high solid content is going to be better. Dont forget the cultured butter. I think that will win

[@D4w2010]

Maybe some oil too, instead of all that butter. Like using olive oil to replace the unsalted butter one

[@VenomTheCat]

unsalted butter and oil is vastly different but I agree on having a control using a neutral oil

[@codylee2818]

Don't forget Amish butter. I don't know why it's different but it's tasty. Might as well try Irish butter, too. Any butter you can get your hands on, really!

[@robb4044]

And I noticed that you used KerryGold imported Irish Butter made with from milk from grass fed cows, which, in my opinion, is a very good butter. I'm glad you showed that.

[@856Dropout]

Rob B the best butter I’ve ever had, hands down.

[@KamramBehzad]

I bought KerryGold Irish for the first time a couple of weeks ago and it is seriously good. - From Sydney, Australia

[@Cyrribrae]

Hmm I never think much about the butter. That makes total sense though

[@Admire]

What butter is considered the best butters in the world?

[@Splinter48708]

I love KerryGold butter. The local Wal-Mart sells it and the first time I tried it, I was hooked. As Ninja would say, "It is DEEEEEEEEEELICIOUS!"

[@FishinMagik]

Watched every video abd decided to go back to the beginning and rewatch some oldies! Steaks are perfect but watching the production evolution is my favorite part. Easily my fav channel on YT!

[@siskospaceman]

I love your videos! I'd like to see a biography style video where you talk about how you got into cooking steaks. You guys always seem so happy when you make these videos! Thanks!

[@isaacsmith400]

I just wanted to take a minute and say I watched 10 of your videos back-to-back you come up with brilliant ideas and love the photography it's almost like being there

[@kortneecantrell4595]

This is quickly becoming one of my favorite channels!

[@jjwmacdo]

The problem here is that you are searing them all at the same temperature. Beef fat has the highest smoke point (I think) so you can get a harder sear with that. I sear with beef fat and then baste in butter.

[@pphtm]

I was thinking the same thing. The quality of the flavor from searing depends on the smoke point of the oil. This experiment could have been done better, but I think butter will probably still end up as the best either way.

[@wilsonseto1]

high quality vids, good stuff, you deserve more subscribers

I love how you answer questions I've always wondered about. Great Stuff!

[@ratlips4363]

Amazing to return to this channel, 5 years ago. Leo has lost a ton of weight, Angel has put on the weight, and Guga, well he is still using a baggy shirt to hide the rolls...but the cooking is still amazing! "Lets Do It"!

[@tatatillo4314]

I was gone say the same thing lol

[@ZikkityZakOTA]

Man, Leo hasn't been so descriptive compare to the videos Guga makes now! Either way, awesome video! Should make the boys try this again. :)

[@okakaaaaaa]

Man Guga's voice lacks the enthusiasm in these videos as it usually does in the more recent videos. Goes to show how far he's really come, and i never knew Leo had weight issue. My respect for him increased ten fold now

[@Jobeyzz]

Before Leo became the description guy lol

[@Turtlejay80]

lol, the way you said bacon at 2:15 , you can tell your true love!

[@TheGrandSlayer]

Guga I love your videos so much. So happy I found both of your channels

[@jacobmatheson5608]

this channel has grown for the better over the years

[@Volosous]

"even the dogs want some" they ALWAYS want some...

[@garymorel1882]

Sometimes it’s great to go back and look at how your channel has progressed over the years but you still give me chills when you talk about the bacon fat I like food way too much 😂😂😂 Here’s duck fat beef fat butter and da baycon with love👍

[@bigdgoriders]

Guga I was wondering about experimenting with powdered milk (dried milk solids). I have read that it's the milk solids in butter combined with a sear that really imparts a flavorful crust on the meat. So it would seem to me that powdering the finished steak in dried milk solids and then searing in a combination of a neutral flavored high smoke point oil and clarified butter (to complete the butter flavor profile). I think that would be an interesting experiment; to see if you can manage an even better, more flavorful crust using dried milk solids. Another experiment to consider is different kinds of butter. You can get butters that have more milk solids than others that have higher fat content.

[@davidfox734]

Great idea about the milk powder! Heston blumenthal uses the milk powder to coat chicken wings before roasting them for stock as it intensifies the meat taste. It makes the roast chicken flavour seem 10X more. Would be a great idea to test it out on a steak

[@GugaFoods]

So you mean put powder milk on the steak before searing to see if it produces better flavor or better crust? Let me know because I am interested on this.

[@bigdgoriders]

Guga Foods yes. Coat the steak in dried milk solids and then salt and pepper it and sear.

[@vaazig]

bigdgoriders sounds disgusting

[@bigdgoriders]

Alex VI milk solids are found in butter. Is cooking steak in butter disgusting?

[@GremiasV]

That was so surprising hearing butter was so much better after watching what happened on the souvide channel! Nice vid Guga, as always good content!

[@leo.girardi]

Guga, great as always, and everyone seems to have fun. Yes, I've seen your sous vide butter experiment, etc. But what about sous vide, then finish with butter in a pan?

[@jgmdsn667]

Wow, Guga! I swore before that the winner was unveiled that it was going to be the bacon fat because of the smokiness it should impart. Small wonder the French make their compound butter to finish off steaks I guess. Will try this for my next steaks. Thanks for another great video!

[@GugaFoods]

I know right I WAS CHEERING FOR THE BACON!!!! but to my surprise that just happened.

[@imbrzyant]

2:49 I freaked out in my seat! I thought he was going to drop the steak Hahahah..

[@SouthernCoastalCookingTM]

great video again. what would you think about sous vide first with just salt , then finishing on the grill in those pans with butter?

[@Punchabearinnamouf]

Haha the way you said baaacon when you're pouring the fat. Such admiration.

[@johnwilson1090]

Wow. Great video! Very inspiring. Camera work was awesome too.

Guga you are the man! You rock! What about oils? (Ex verg olive oil, canola, grapeseed, sunflower, palm...) Then the winner vs butter vs flamethrower! OMG why am I not your neighbour? (I am a butcher) Thanks for the video!

[@jamiecottrell2347]

A lot of those, canola, sunflower and palm are neutral tasting oils, so they shouldn't have an impact on the taste. Olive oil could be interesting to add though.

[@kiefferbrack469]

Hey Guga!! Huge fan and fellow chef here. We have a 35 day dry age striploin on our menu. I render the fat trimmings from that sous vide then strain out solids and whip it into butter to finish steaks.. try it trust me !

I am happy to see this. I was not sure about the butter in sous vide test. After all as you said butter is for fryin it.

[@brianfox3640]

Enjoyed this video....cool experiment👍👍

[@duckyboy9998]

Guga you gotta do tutorials on how to set up your grills and what you use to burn up the coals

[@johnknightiii1351]

Can you do it again and use ghee and compare it with butter to see if there is a difference

[@GugaFoods]

Regular BUTTER vs GHEE? Not sure if that is necessary to do, but if you guys want to see it I might do it.

[@johnknightiii1351]

Guga Foods the ghee might crust better without burning. Or it might just be the same 🤣

[@GugaFoods]

True might not burn but takes longer go sear, so Hummmmmm not sure if its worth doing a video on it. Lets see how everyone feels about this. I like the idea but not sure yet.

[@Paelorian]

Better to just clarify that delicious Kerrygold yourself if you want to see if the higher smoke point helps.

[@troyyoung2661]

i use grass fed ghee everytime i sear my steaks. OMG! the Look and Taste is incredible.

[@MrHouri]

Pov you got this recommend 3 years later

[@crackerjack4833]

5:26 Just listen to that Dog bark ..... its not normal ... the way it barked ... during 5:27. Listen to the 4 barks during that second. I have NEVER heard a dog bark like that unless it was influenced with human assistance. Your dogs are weird ... but your food .... OMG! I can't say anything.This was too good.

[@jameshudson2092]

Hey Guga I just wanna say that looks great but I have to ask have you tried this with hamburgers I think it would be I different kinda of flavors I used butter and bacon I have to try the duck tho thanks for the video it is really inspiring

[@whyme5021]

Great information Guga! How did you keep the butter from burning when you grilled the steak?

[@jayayh9650]

Hey Guga! Looks like the garlic powder is getting more pronounced with every episode... ;)

[@jordiventura1652]

you should do a video testing all the winners of past experiments, sous vide, tenderising etc and see which one is the best one, finally combine all winners in one ;)

[@rlm5657]

Great channel!

[@silkytp789]

Great video. It was shot very well, and the reverse sear on the steaks was superb. They were cooked to perfection. That's hard to do on four steaks, on a grill. Really nice job.

[@GTAEmergencyVideography]

Bro the music at 4:27 sounds like the guitar on Yosemite by Travis Scott!!

[@hexmachine6599]

Hi Guys, great work! Just wanted to ask if it’s ok to sear steaks this way that have been sous vide? You did mention don’t use the butter sous vide but I assume you meant not to use it during the sous vide bath process but what about for searing? Thanks in advance for any feedback.

[@samzedd7238]

Loved it!!!!! Now I'm hungry. BTW, what do you think about GHEE? Ever done that?

[@vaazig]

SamZedd I doubt it will be better as it has no proteins and solids

[@quelaag3829]

is there any specific reason why you use kerrygold irish butter, or is it just that you like that one ? :) keep up the good vids man

[@truetrue2963]

this is the butter i use, most likely because its the only "real" butter my supermarket carries. lol sad that they have about 20 fake butters

[@MaZEEZaM]

Good to know, Thanks :D I would love to see an experiment comparing Charcoal bbq vs Gas (Propain for US) bbq.

[@alotharian]

Excellent comparison again Guga. My only complain is that was not there tasting ;). Could you tell me though how you glaze your sous vide steaks that you sear with torch, please? They always look as if you seared them in fat.

[@alotharian]

"I" is missing. I was not there.

Guga! Marketing Tip I almost forgot to thumbs up the video, until you reminded me. Saying "Hey, give us a thumbs up" actually worked in my case!

[@deebo3226]

@guga foods can you explain why butter is lesser after Sous Vide? I tend to agree, i've already found Mayo better when cooking in the pan. Is beef tallow or duck fat butter than mayo when using sous vide and in the pan?

[@TheQuesoJC]

is it possible that the extra salt from the salted kerrygold affected the outcome? Tallow doesn't contain any.. hmm

If salt was the primary factor, bacon fat would have won by a mile.

Love your videos Guga! I always sear my steaks on cast iron with butter. Nothing makes a steak taste better than browned butter.

[@GugaFoods]

Are you sure... I tested that and the FLAMETHROWER was the CHAMP.

[@drywater_]

Guga Foods I remember that video. You have to get it SCREAMING HOT and only finish the sear with butter so it doesn't burn. Start with safflower or grapeseed oil, then toss in a chunk of butter for the last 30 seconds and spoon the browning butter over the steak as it finishes searing.
