[@tinkersgma9413]

A tip that’s worked well for me is to let your meat come to room temp (30-40 min) before the sear. That way the meat doesn’t seize up and you get a beautiful crust. Also, put those herbs to good use! Melt some butter in the pan with the herbs and baste your steak after that initial sear. Baste baste baste. Really enjoyed your video.

[@julianedgar7491]

Shut the fuck up. Just high heat for a good sear you fucking noob.

[@phishtrader7744]

Bringing the steaks to room temp first does next to nothing for promoting a good sear. Getting a good sear is all about heat transfer to the surface of the steak and the interior temp of the steak doesn't really matter as much. What matters more, is starting with a steak that has a surface that is as dry as possible. It takes a lot more energy (and therefore time) to boil off surface water than it does to just raise the temp of the water in the steak several tens of degrees. Water retards the Maillard reaction, making it take hours rather than minutes, so you need to either dry the steak off or cook off the water before you can get a good sear.

@@deletedleaf2688Yes I think the cost of the manufacture/transport of the foil would outweigh a bit of soap and water. He could at least re-use the foil a few times and then recycle it (although TBF he may not have access to recycling facilities being in the USA).

Kiefer .. I do essentially the same but next time try this .. brush a thin layer of olive oil directly on the steak, use course sea salt instead on both sides .. but allow it to stay on the steak for 1 hour per 1". Not only does it enhance the flavor but it increases the steaks tenderness. Enjoy! My favorite is Ribeye steak.
