Chris Leo Well said👏

[@cinemaocd1752]

They had some nice looking ribeye at the market and I used this method and it was amazing. Best steak I've ever made. One of the best 4-5 steaks I've eaten in my life. Kenji, I so appreciate the details, the lack of sped up footage and cuts, it makes the techniques so much easier to learn. I think what I was doing wrong in the past was blasting my steaks on super high heat, using cast iron (which is slow to react if temp shift is required). The basting looks fancy on youtube and it does add to the finished dish (I got the fat on my steak actually crisp like cracklin in places), but the prep and temperature you cook at make a much bigger difference. Also leaving the meat whole. I don't know why I've been cutting up my meat before I cook it. It's so much better served sliced against the grain like that, and way better for kids, it because they don't have to figure out how to cut up a whole steak. Also, it's a small thing, but I always appreciate that you are cooking for two adults and a kid, same as me. It's hard to figure out quantities sometimes for the odd number. I would never have thought I could feed three people and have leftovers with a single steak, but I did.

[@___xyz___]

He eats a very varied diet, and also pretty energy rich. I would assume he's getting all essential nutrients no trouble. I'm not surprised he's reaching satiety. If he wasn't eating preferentially energy storing sugars, it would've been another deal entirely. I see some people on low carb diets eating thousands of calories of steak without problems.

[@TrappedinSLC]

@@___xyz___ I think there is also variation in what people’s bodies want as an ‘ideal’ diet - my SO feels and does fine on way lower protein intake than I do, for example. I tend to have more muscle mass naturally (I don’t work out but I have a lot of bulky muscle because that is just what my body defaults to where my SO is more a ‘runner’s build’ type) so I think perhaps our bodies just have slightly different baseline needs. So I’d need more steak than my SO does for it to be a proper meal for my body. If I don’t get enough protein after a while I feel crummy - tired and sore and cranky.

The reason why the juices flow out is simple physics. When you heat atoms they become more active and matter expands, this is why the juices flow out. As the atoms cool they become less active and the juices stop leaching. You will notice that when taken straight off the heat source the protein is plump and then contracts as it cools down.

For leftover steak, what I love is to cut it really thin when it's cold and put it in a panini with some sharp cheddar. So goddamn good. I honestly look forward to it more than the steak itself.

Jungmin Lee not only are they expensive, but they’re the best. an absolute pleasure to cook with. if you don’t want to pay for a very expensive pan, cooking with cast iron is perfectly fine. a cast iron pan will last you your whole life if treated properly. they aren’t that expensive either.

ended up trying this without the letting it sit/waiting. used pretty good ny strip cut and tried the oil/butter combo, i like how you did that. didn't do the sauce or extras but i poured my pan oil/butter/garlic mixture from the steak into a bowl with asparagus and tossed then baked in a pan with an amount of oil resembling a downpour on a new england street so i bent the aluminum foil into a little tub on a baking sheet. 400f for 20mins and put the cooked hot asparagus on my cut up steak. think there was a little bit too much salt on my steak, glad i cooked with some fine cracked black pepper though i like the spice and it helped balance out. i think i could pan fry some potato chips with some garlic as i cook my steak and make a sour cream/chive dip while the asparagus is going without losing any time. as a single dude i think this will be my new sunday dinner until i get bored of it but appreciate your techniques and loved the commentary.

Thank you for the video, I can't believe this is FREE content! I don't know if anybody will see this, but wouldn't the butter solids burn after a while since you used butter from the start? Wouldn't there be a burned/bitter flavor on the steak or in the pan sauce?

The oil he added first helps a great deal with that. He also mentioned he would usually use grapeseed oil, which I believe has a super high smoke point.
