I wanted to learn how to cook a steak in 2020 after a lot of time stuck at home-but everywhere I looked provided conflicting information to reasonable questions. Questions like: What pan temperature? What oils? How often to flip the steak? Should I baste it? What about tempering? Sous vide or reverse sear? Plain old skillet? Cast iron or not? The questions were infinite.
After hundreds of hours of scouring through cookbooks and textbooks, cooking dozens of steaks, and losing half my hair, I've found it! I've found the secret to cooking the perfect steak-every time-using science.

⁠@@whaletrain7070Interesting comment because I’m not a tech reviewer and haven’t been in years. I’ve published like 2 reviews in 2023. This is a subject that has absolutely taken over almost all of my interest and free time in the last 2 years. I’ve read countless articles, scientific papers, and books. I’ve cooked dozens of steaks under extremely controlled conditions and repeated them to get data I share here. I’m not a food scientist, but does that disqualify me from learning and sharing that which I’ve learned? Please, identify where this video has led you astray or produced incorrect information. Because I’ve vetted this video probably more than anything else I’ve ever published in my life.

@whaletrain7070 7 месяцев назад

@@snazzy My point on being a 'tech reviewer' was probably too narrow, you're right. What I meant was that you predominantly do tech videos well compared to most out there - infact, really well. This is no exception, the video is well made but I don't feel this is Snazzy Labs. If I want a follow up on the latest WWDC, I know that Snazzy does this to a T and really well polished. I'm certainly not disputing the factuality of the information in the video but if I wanted food science or the perfect-ness of cooking a steak I'd go to Adam Ragusea, you see what I'm saying? As a long term follower, the thing I'd hate to see is this channel turn into a multipurpose channel of sorts.

@evanractivand 7 месяцев назад

I stand by the reverse sear method, gives me the best results (as long as you're using a decently thick cut). Simply season the steak with salt for at least 2 hours before (ideally overnight) uncovered in the fridge. The salt and cool air draws the moisture out and results in a beautifully crusted exterior and a nice browning with the Maillard reaction when you sear it. About 30-60 mins before cooking I leave it out to get to room temp before putting it in the oven, resting for ~10 mins once it hits about 45 Celsius. Then get my cast iron pan searing hot with grapeseed oil, then sear the steak for 30-60s max each side with a bit of rosemary and garlic butter, then rest again for another 10 mins or so. Never let me down yet!

@andrewcheng1998 6 месяцев назад

- sous vide and reverse searing takes passive cook time ie it is free time for cooking sides or setting up camera for video. It takes less time than it sounds if one plans ahead. -they also pretty consistent so even in a bad weekday night you could get, maybe not perfect, but decent steak -basting is low(er) temperature cooking after searing, the main purpose is to bring center up to temperature but it also make crust look nicer -put steak in room temp water for 15mins and complain reverse searing take too much time lol

@nickouellette1 3 месяца назад

I've tried all of these at different times over the years. I stopped sous vide b/c it takes awhile and exposes the meat to plastic, and I think your method is great but just takes too much time / prep for day to day cooking. I've found that the easiest by far is to reverse sear using bluetooth temp thermometers to monitor the internal temp Then just remove and sear for 1-2 mins per side, preheat the pan when the steaks are almost ready to be taken out of oven Use a cheap temperature gun to monitor pan temperature and make sure it's in the 300s before you sear the steak to get the Maillard reaction Use grass fed tallow or ghee -- both have a high smoke point and are more stable and healthier than the oils you mention Actual cooking time (not including the 10-30 mins the steak is in the oven) is 5-10 mins

This was the perfect video for me! Lately I’ve been cooking a butter basted ribeye each week and following a very similar process to you. I’m excited to try cooking in a different oil and pouring butter on at the end rather than basting and see if I get an improved result. One question, I’ve always seasoned my steak while it’s resting on the counter prior to cooking. Is there any reason not to season the steak earlier before cooking?

@snazzy 7 месяцев назад

Nah. Lots will recommend much before so the salt penetrates the meat (and it does if you do it a whole 12 hours before), but I find the results are of negligible import and it isn’t worth the hassle.
