People in the comments are complaining about the price, but most of the world has no problem paying $1300 for a new iPhone. Get your priorities straight. Yes it’s expensive, but most people spend a ton of money on stuff that is bad for their health, and doesn’t move them forward. Not speaking for everybody, but I think it would be worth it if it’s possible. Consider.

[@Highintensityhealth]

Pinning this comment right here! Thanks for this mindset shift that we all need to hear.

[@CarbageMan]

Not buying that ripoff either. I can buy a lot of wild salmon with that money.

[@the_dudeabides9718]

I have several other methods of cooking a delicious steak. My priority is using my money more wisely and investing in thur better quality meat. Weigh your options... Pay a ridiculous amount of money on this grill and eat feed lot meat or use a different method of cooking that you most likely already own and use that money for grass fed and finished beef. What's the healthiest option Mike? We don't all sell supplements and do infomercials.

[@AmbuBadger]

1- anyone dropping $1300 on an iPhone probably prefers soy to steak. 2- cast iron skillet.

[@James-dt7ky]

[@yourgooglemeister6745]

Great idea I used these all the time in restaurants. But I'll wait till Costco carries one at 1/4 the price

[@newmennium]

Cool demo friend. I would raise the grill up more and temp for that crust hitter dude

[@vashlash6870]

High heat does not lock in moisture. Kenji Lopez Alt does experiments on this. Internal doneness of two identical cuts, no matter what temp you cooked them at, will have the same moisture content. Btw much better video on the Otto grill than other ones I've watched.

[@fridaynightgamefilm]

Not overcooking retains moisture. When animal proteins hit about 140 degrees Fahrenheit, they shrink and squeeze out moisture. The outside of a perfectly cooked steak is going to go over this temperature, but most of the center should not. A medium rare steak will be less than 130 degrees F in the center.

[@chesterkleinhans4207]

Rainier wants his rare, thank you.

[@wealth1ness]

Hey Mike, curious how much you are using it compared to the regular grill a year later. Thinking of getting one.

[@HitErrr]

I just bought some ribeye steak and right away saw this upload notification - lovely coincidence.

[@duststorm7287]

Sous vide rare and a cast iron super hot skillet to sear for me. Pittsburgh style. Rare on inside and burn seared on outside. Had a Porterhouse cooked that way today for lunch. Delicious.

Why does he keep the grill on the lowest level? I think it would have a better sear if you have it closer to the heat.

[@alex_stanley]

I have one, and the sear is much better closer to the heat. His steak was barely seared at all, like it was cooked in a toaster oven.

[@jw3521]

60 dollars for a filet from a high end steak house is cheap! you need to have the grill closer to the heat as there is no char, the steak looks partially steamed on the surface. I am redoing a kitchen and looking at salamaders for even higher temps but still have to find one i like

[@bryantillotson8243]

Cast iron.

[@AlkalineGamingHD]

and/or carbon steel

[@Shayne_T]

Cast iron works great. I actually feel like I wasted money on this grill thing, even if it’s just extra cash I’m spending. I would not be desperate and use a credit card or anything, not worth it.

[@GTE_Channel]

I use a quality steel pan. 2 mins each side for normal cuts, 3 mins for thicker cuts. Just rub the steak with oil and place in searing hot pan and dont touch it. Let the. Rest for 10 mins and enjoy!

[@georgekelly5987]

What kind of steel pans?

[@sandruu]

That oil will coat my whole kitchen surface….

[@andraslibal]

Careful with the oil it can be very unhealthy. Better use fat.

@@sandruu that’s right Sandra! Do that for 5 years twice a day, and no contractor will touch your kitchen for anything reasonable, to clean that up/off I tried it again yesterday, smoked up the house so bad, even with really good ventilation units.

Can you post a video or link me a video you like on the best methods for cooking meat. I cook myself and my kids meat everyday but I’m not sure I’m doing it the healthiest way. Especially since we eat it every single day I want to make sure I’m doing it the best possible way. Please and thank you. Or a cookbook you love? Just anything steering me in the right direction. So much to learn about a mostly meat diet.

Do Sous Vide and sear on an Iron pan.. Way better! Hands down no comparison!

[@marktalksmoney1956]

I read the higher the heat the more damage to nutrients. But I still cook higher for beef cause I love char. 😜

[@CarbageMan]

Actually it’s high temp and low heat that’s best. The less time it spends under heat the better. That’s why microwave is actually the best for vegetables. As for meats it’s controlled heat like sous vide. I cook my steak at 129 to 133 degrees depending on the cut.

[@fridaynightgamefilm]

A normal grill will burn fat as it drips down from the meat you are cooking. The soot from burned grease doesn't taste good. The Otto Wilde grill, like a commercial broiler (salamander) cooks from the top, so dripping fat doesn't flare up.

[@joebr249]

I love reading all the peasants that can’t afford this complain about it in the comments. Validates the purchase even more for me.

[@kelliparra2483]

Most ovens have a broiler in them already..I cant see paying all that money on something already in most modern ovens nowadays.

Yes, its designed for meat first and foremost. The body has a much easier time extracting nutrients from meat. Reason we also have similar stomach pH as the carnivores. Also, try feeding a small child veggies instead of meat, and see what happens. Nature has already programmed what is naturally right or wrong.
