The perfect steak part 1 - In Search of Perfection - BBC 

I cook my steak for 7 days generally, so 24 hours is a breeze. One time I put my steak in the oven at room temperature and left the oven door open so it wouldn't overcook and then went on a holiday for 3 months and by the time I came back , the steak was ready to eat... It was amazing! Although I spent the next week in hospital with food poisoning because I forgot to wash my potatoes...

I ordered a coffee in the Fat Duck, Hestons place. They let loose a rare bat, it flew around the restaurant until it was shot with a lazer pistol by the head chef. They then extracted the coffee beans from the bats intestines & ground it with a piece of stone which was apparently part of stone henge. I didn’t ask for milk I hate to think what would have occurred.

I actually came here from the fish and chips video to carry on with my science lesson

24hours is nothing, i usually cook my steaks for 96 hours.

I want to eat a steak tomorrow, better start cooking now.

24 hours is nothing, when I was eight my dad put a steak on top of the washing machine, turned a 40 degrees cycle on and said “that’ll be ready for your 21st birthday, son”

Heston’s revised recipe involves extracting all of the juice from the meat and cooking it separately for two weeks in the Large Hadron Collider, so as not to lose a single drop before reinserting into the separately cooked flesh.

Back in my day we used to cook our steaks for a whole year

I'd been looking for ways to cut down on my energy costs recently and knowing I only have to have the oven on for 24 hours for this dish will really help! Thanks Heston!

...and for our next dish, we will use the Large Hadron Collider! We'll need: a ticket to Geneva, 3 electron microscopes, a rectal thermometer, and an egg. Yes! It's boiled egg ala' Geneviève scientifique! Extraordinaire! *smooch!* _

This guy is the Heisenberg of cooking

This is indeed the juiciest, tenderest, most flavorsome steak I've never tasted

“The temperature of the oven is critical” Leaves the oven door open for ages to tell us about how critical it is

Daddy i want a steak Ok come next month he will be ready

Walks in to supermarket and gets the attention of an assistant Me- Excuse me, do you have a 4 rib cut of long horn cattle matured for 35 days at a 2 bone thickness....... oh, and also a powerful blowtorch Supermarket assistant- ................

I'm gonna cook one of Heston's creations for Sunday lunch - I'm going to start Thursday morning....

He's a 3 Michelin star chef noted for innovative scientific based cooking , and there's people in the comments acting like he's clueless ?? Really ?? Like honestly ?? 😂😂😂

Leave my oven running for 24 hr? Wake up to the ashes of my house. Or if I get lucky, a massive electricity bill.

On a serious note .... In his shows I love the comments section.... Goodness They are hilarious 😂😂😂

I put the meat in the oven for 24hrs and when I opened it a cow ran out!

Next time, try using a welding torch to join the pieces together. You'll end up with the juiciest, tenderest whole cow. Just imagine

Waiter: Hello may i take your order? Me: Hmm what's today's special Waiter: The perfect steak cook to order! Me: Oh i'll take it! Waiter: Alright then well come back tomorrow cus it's gonna take 24 hours.

@geektoro correct, mate. that is exactly my wiew. and instead of a propane burner use some beech wood and just a little juniper at the end, and savour the difference....

Legend has it he is still shooting this video

i love how people over react and treat this like a morning cooking show, He's merely illustrating how much further you can push your cooking

I only did double science at school, I’ve officially now done triple! Thanks Heston

This dude acts like cooking in general doesn't get rid of bacteria

@ace1262 he did said it's been aged for 21 days, the proteases won't be active after that long.

Ramsay: hot pan. Olive oil, season beautifully. Oliver: glug of olive oil Blumenthal: warm up your large Hadron Collider first

*video begins* "hello, my name is heston blumenthal and i am on hour 18 of the 72 hour cook for this steak"

Heston welcoming guests to a dinner party Heston: come in guys. Have a seat...food will be ready in 24 hours...drinks?

Roasties and veg are done, steak will be ready a week Thursday.

Heston should work in a Fast Food Restaurant.

Best cut for steak is obviously skirt. Plus it needs to be on a bbq...

Another Heston "Ain't nobody got time for that!" Blumenthal video that I will probably only make once in my lifetime just to try it

Next up watch as heston cooks a boiled egg for 96 years

24 hours... I'm not that patient, but if it's to taste a perfect steak, I'll definitely try it once. As for the damn blowtorch... am I the only one that doesn't keep that in her kitchen? Is there any other way of having the same browning effect? Heck, I should probably bring that to my chemistry lab next week... joking... almost.

Heston better be paying my electricity bill if he's expecting me to leave the oven on for 24 hours.

A powerful blowtorch? I’ll get my flamethrower shall I? 😂😂

Sorry to tell all the comedians It WORKS. I menu plan &have no problem about cooking tuesdays & and prepping wednesdays at the same time, I won't even mention brining poultry for 24 hours (well worth it) then. Can't understand the problem with a few minutes prep the day before. Serious cooks can organise.

Hmmm 24hrs seriously I can imagine the electricity bill at the end of the month.

I am starting this recipe today and coming back next month

I came to cook a quick steak with Heston while my perfect crisp chicken cooks for a fornite.

0:06 “Mum when will you start making dinner?” “As soon as I can darling, I just need to wait for the beef to age first” “How long will that take?” Mum: 👁👄👁

I knew that high powered blow torch I had in my cutlery drawer would come in handy one day.

I've put the steak at 1℃ in the oven. I'll eat that after 50 years. I bet it'll be juicier. 😉

I’ve kind of gone off aged steak after that awesome undertaker on Wired said he couldn’t stand the smell of it as it reminded him of work.

Best part is 0:00 when you look at this "mean" babyface and realize that his glasses are NOT safety goggles. xD

This lad is bananas

So, dry aged for 35 days and then raised to the temperature of a desert for 24 hours. This meat, however good, is so close to rotting off the bone that I'm sure some over zealous food inspector somewhere might actually declare the meat spoiled. I'd still be first in line to see if it actually was spoiled of course. I might have to try it again and again and again just to be sure.

Blowtoarch for 1 minute, then pop into the oven for a full day and night. Easy

0:30 I wonder what steakhouse in NY he's talking about? I would assume Peter Luger's, or Delmonico's.

I wanna make this steak for christmas... ill better get started

It looked good in the end but is it worth waiting 24 hours+ for when you can whip a fantastic steak up on a grill pan in 5-10 mins , i dont think so personally

Heston Blumenthal is an op

Perfection!!! Beautiful!!!

It would be very entertaining to be in Heston's Restaurant kitchen for an evening to see what goes on lol

I normally get home knackered on a Monday night and cook my chips 35 times. My steak is ready just before I get home from work the following day

To be honest I never felt hungry when watching his video but sleepy instead

Now i need a blow torch to be able to eat...thanks heston! :)

Where is the end result? What does it look like?

I had no idea this comment section was soooooo goood! Ahahahahahahahahah

Personally I like to cook my steak for a week with the heat from my Xbox.

The amount of people missing the point of his program is hilarious.

Is that some kind of propane burner? With residues of sulphur etc. with it? forget about it, mate....

He's more of a scientist than a cook

charcoal flavor is given by the charcoal in the barbeque, not by a propane burner!

@DeeJayBounce Clearly what? I know what I'm talking about. I worked for twenty (20) years in the chemistry business and I'm a skilled cook. Italian food, if you do not mind.

Meat aged for 35days plus 24h of slow 50°c of slow cooking. Leaving your family starvation n house in fire/fumes on the celling as he suggested to leave the oven open. Plus u might get bacterial/tapeworm infection due to slow relatively uncooked steak...

Anyone done this with a5 bms12 waygu?? Would it be worth cooking so low?

ofcourse it's 2 parts

Thought I'd just whip up a quick steak while my chicken was cooking... Perfect...

What's the point of an expensive oven if you're not gonna trust it? It seems dumb that you spent all that money, then spend a bit more for an extra thermometer.

I put my steak in the oven in 1938 It should be done in about another 8 years but I'm keeping an eye on it Then because I blow torched it I'll probably redecorate it once it comes out of the oven

Marco Pierre white : easy , simple 15minutes recipe... Heston : we don't do that here...

11 years for a dish. Dang bro. I’m still waiting for this dish to finish 😂😂😂

Lot of people criticizing and complaining about the methods used... perfection isn’t easy / cheap !!

Can I cook mine in the fridge?

Wow. I am trying this.

Just got done with the Hestons chicken recipe, time for a steak that takes only 1.6 relative light-years to preplan, so I can begin the saga to have a meal.

oh boy another Heston Blumenthal video, how long are these steaks gonna take? 3 hours 5,... maybe 6.also let's find out how high the electric bill is gonna be. Before I forget shoutout to the poor guy who has to check the temperature on the thermometer every hour when Heston is asleep.

So, get the triple-barrelled quadruple power bunsen burner..

Ask your grandparents how they cooked brisket. It'll be exactly the same.

I subscribed to read the comments.

Heston was using sous vide before sous vide was a thing

I'm hosting a dinner party next week, so i better get the meat in the oven

Since when did you need a blow torch to cook a steak???

24 hours of running the oven, would have to sell my house to eat this steak.

I don't get it, the oven is hot and he just picks up the thermometer?

Where is part2

This freaking guy... no steak cooking vid should come in 2 parts. Ever.

24 hours, bro calm down the people can wait don’t rush the process

I prefer the 34 day aged steak personally

Has anyone got a blow torch I can borrow

So you could cook it inside a pot over a pot of boiling water and it'd be too hot?

Will I pay my electric bill Heston 34 f hrs

Heston I just got a bill from energy company for £170.000... my oven was on for 53 years!!!
