This is one of the most Canadian things I've ever watched. Politely constructive criticism, no yell, just tell how the steak is and how it could be better.

On another note, cutting the steak vertically shows that the meat is consistent all the way through, rather than cutting it horizontally where the cross section is much smaller.
I cut the meat diagonally
I have never cut through a steak 🥩🥩🥩
@@lucyaimol6 Exactly! Just pick it up and bite it like our ancestors did!
i eat it whole then slice myself in half for consistency
no, he did that because it was going across the grain. there are virtually no instances where a steak widely varies in rareness from the center when pan cooked.
Atleast the judges in Canada taste your food completely, then talk about it. The ones in USA just spit it out, and make it a point that your birth had to do something with your dish.

@@AndrejNikolov-xw2gigiving them the benefit of the doubt, the judges got there last so perhaps the residual heat cooked it a bit more then intended
Cutting steak vertically should be considered as a mortal sin.

Pretty sure it was just to see that is was cooked evenly throughout. Any other time they’d cut it normal

Slicing the steak vertically is a violation to the Geneva's convention.
i think its vile for the context of eating it but as a dish judge i think its smart to do that to see if the steak is cooked evenly along the steak

He’s probably the kind of guy who takes a giant bite out of the bubble tape roll too.
Ok then...let's slice it horizontally if that makes you happy!

Agreed
I also like Marissa's steak, beautiful pink . But what do you guys thought of Jonathan's steak?
@Kingstonian1G and she won. I think you're wrong here.
Anyone else notice how all of their steaks were different shades of pink but they were all “perfect” 👁👄👁

As a steaks & burgers grillman, I have to say that only 1 dish that can be considered to be a medium rare steak is the first guy contestant. The 2nd and 4th was a medium. And lastly, the 3rd and even the example is closely to be medium well already. Medium rare supposed to have some of rare part like 25% or less, but make sure that it still have some rare part. that's why it's called medium-rare.
That's exactly what I was thinking.
Bro you hit the nail on the head. I literally posted a comment saying this exact thing. 1st guy was perfect medium rare. The other 3 were medium and mw.
Wrong they all were either a little under or over.

WHY DOES CLAUDIO CUT THE STEAK LIKE THAT
It’s the easiest way to see if the steak is cooked the whole way through in the very center? I’m sure he wouldn’t cut it that way if he weren’t judging.
@@mikamoschella3410 True, It just gets me really mad
I mean steak is one of claudio’s signature dishes at his restaurants so his standards are very high
I've never had steak, but if it's flank steak, the home cooks should be cutting it perpendicular to the grain.

Uncooked meat is red, not pink
@@SenoEricKrueger it did look red in the centre and outside thin layer was pink, compared to some other cooks with a brown lining, then pink and the in the middle a thin red centre
To be fair, last two steaks were edging being overdone, especially the second last one, definitely more than medium rare. I too would prefer a well seasoned steak over a slightly less done steak however.
Agreed
First one was the only really perfect
@@Garvin285 first one was reaIIy good inside, outside however had aImost no carameIzation, it was grey, no sear whatsoever
@@Augustus_Imperator you're right I really just thought of inside
Thats because the other 2 are still cooking while they are tasting the first one..... so it's not fair... they should be cut at the same time
The only steak that was Medium Rare was Jonathan's
More on the rare side
@@climatechange7785 na it was perfect medium rare. It is was not even on the rare side.
@@climatechange7785 thats how i have been cooking steak since 10 yrs in the restaurants. Rest was all meduim.
@@Garh52 yeah now that I look at it your right: i mistakes the juices for the actually meat making it seem darker than it actually was
@@Garh52 yeah, jonathans was medium rare, and even that i would likely send back for being too overdone. the rest are going back to the kitchen so fast
Three judges of Canada MasterChef are soooo tender and gentle
Claudio asking Jonathan what he wanted the cook on his steak, like bruh you literally just told them yo wanted medium rare lol
He wanted to check if he remembered.
This is the only masterchef clip I have watched that I feel like I could actually do well in.
So quick and efficient 😊 neat and accessible! No unnecessary words or movements.
"Open it... please open it chef Alvin.... Its killing me...."
I think it was on the medium-well side, but it looked closer to the sample. There was still a bit of pinkness in the center.
I do have a dirty mind

The steak they used to show what medium rare looks like was more of a medium steak...
yeah it was. im a chef who worked in a steakhouse for 2 years and i cringed at that moment. you send that out as medium rare it gets sent back
@Matt Medium? Sure. Pushing medium well? No you're just shitting on it for the sake of it at that point. The difference between a single grading can occur simply via lighting differences. If its lightly pink all the way through its not a medium well steak.
It also has to do with the cameras they use, that could affect the color we see when watching
@Matt it was medium but not pushing medium well I don't think. Nadia's was also medium
That’s exactly what I thought. That was for sure not medium rare
This is a pretty easy challenge, I mean as far as cooking goes. I'm honestly surprised this appeared so late in the show with just 8 contestants. This is gotta be one of the first things you should learn when learning to cook for yourself. You can cook a variety of different meats with this technique. Pretty essential for pork chops - can make them taste far better than the $3-4 they cost to buy.
While its rather easy but its also so easy to screw up, little too high heat and your butter is done for, little too low heat and your steak is too raw etc. Its such simple dish that it also makes people overconfident really easily causing them to get sloppy and make the small mistake and ruin their steak.
I think that’s the beauty of it. You give them such an easy challenge that any chef should be able to do, but it’s a stress test. When everybody’s overthinking everything, see if they can get back to the basics and fundamentals.
It's like serving the perfect boiled egg
Easy in principle,but only cutting it will tell,and that's were the skill comes in.
The simplest thing become hard in a competition.
2:22 "I can see the fear inside they're eyes its kinda exciting to see" you psychopath lol
The Canadian Judges are so kind and polite i love them
5:58 "Just wish it was a porter house", could also translate to: "Just wish it was your dog."
On another note, steak looks so good when done correctly

I biggest pet-peeve with seasoning steak right before grilling led me to put salt on my steaks several hours before grilling. It has made a huge difference in flavor and helps to absorb the excess moisture for a nice sear.
Agreed. Making sure that the steak is dry will help you to get a good sear, and seasoning even a 1/2 hour before you put it on the heat will help the steak absorb more seasoning (massaging it in works too but many people don't like touching the raw meat... I guess because they don't like washing their hands?) these poor chefs only have minutes to season
*cuts Jonathan’s steak*
Me: “that’s raw”
Chef: “that’s perfect”
Me: “that’s perfect”
I literally said it was raw when he cut it 😭😭
i was actually thinking that jonathans steak was perfect and the rest were over, because of the lighting
If you thought that was raw, you should see a rare steak.
The most original comment ever
Me too 😭
I like how the judges perfect medium rare steak was an over cooked medium steak.
I’m on season 11 of MC USA but I just remembered by this video that there’s world wide Shows so I can still watch more
Last time I was this early, Sean didn’t open the smoker
Last time I was this early, Thea hadn't cried her way to the finale.
@熊仔🐻 Yeah, think Thea has already proven herself as a twice runner up
Last time i was this early, Eric still smiled
What's the COLOR that you wan't to achieve on that steak
Jonathan: MEDIUM RARE YEP THAT"S A COLOR
Really medium rare, rare , well done has a specific colour
The chef didn't cared to tell them the basic so.....
Well he was nervous so he just blurted out whatever was on his mind. Still, kinda funny

Jonathan's was a little rare compared to chef Claudio's. It had a bit too much red .
I died when the steak was cut straight through the middle
Looks fine to me, however way you cut it the taste is the same.
@@nelzelpher7158 the taste is the same but cutting steaks along the grain makes it tough and hard to chew
@@sudo3915 Yeah I’m not eating apple sauce here. Chewing meat is a given, and isn’t a downside.
@@nelzelpher7158 try searching a couple videos of cutting meat along vs against the grain
A lot of time had passed between the first steak that was cut to the time the last steak was cut. That would make a difference
In my own opinion, the only medium rare steak was the first one. I am also a believer that everyone has different understandings of steak temperatures and doneness so to each their own.
Degree of doneness is defined differently in every country. None of the ones in the video could be called medium-rare in France.
@@Stefan-qk8sw is it more pinkish than any of the steaks in the video?
@@dlwsblancaflor7078 you also gotta remember camera lighting can affect it
idk dude. the second one looks about right, the first is a bit under, the forth is a bit over.
I also thought that the first was the perfect medium rare... the others looked medium. Though I'm not a chef, so what do I know :D
I love how Marissa explain what she is doing, feels like I'm back in my military school lol
0:25 The music when the camera pointed at Jonathan 💀
the steak he said was "medium rare" when he told them that they were going to have to cook the perfect medium rare steak was actually medium well.
Medoum well is delicious. I also like medoum.
@@Eric-ih5mb not medium well. Medoum well. Big difference.
I also think it was pushing medwell
Who else clicked this video knowing it was Masterchef, but expected a comprehensive tutorial on how to perfectly cook steak?
Nadia: **nicely seasoned**
Jen: **nicely seasoned**
Marissa: **overseasoned and less pepper and salt**
Jonathan: **last down to the grain of salt**
I have seen another RUclips video where Jonathan was eliminated, if he didn't wipe off the seasoning, he would not be possibly been eliminated from the competition, that move ended it.
I think he subconsciously wanted to go and ruin the steaks for himself. He mentioned that he missed home at the beginning of the video
Ha! I just cooked steak like this tonight! Getting my cast iron pan was a game changer. I never get tired of cooking and eating a steak! Was it just me or did the judges demonstration steak look a lot more 'medium' than 'medium' rare? I cook my steak between 2.5 - 3 mins per side and it is medium rare. 4 mins on each side seems a little more cooked to me.
Agreed!
depends on the thinckness
It dude looked a lil more medium than medium rare but it’s also how long they rested the steak cuz like the first two people there steak there steak wasn’t rested enough while the third one was rested enough and the fourth was almost fully rested like you can test it out like cut a steak right away and cut a steak 5 minutes or more and see the difference
Honestly probably due to lighting. Lighting can make things look brighter or darker and it’s specifically evident with steak.
Keep your pan on medium high to able to cook medium rare
None of the steaks were the same color inside but the Chefs praised them!!
The secret is to have the skillet FLAMING hot.
1:37 Definitely flaming.
The dude who sliced the steak vertically was a Tyrant in another life.

filet mignon is so easy. cast iron pan on medium high, butter with salt and peper both sides. 4 mins each side and then 4 mins each side in a 350 degree oven (still in the pan). perfect medium rare every time
I always thought you dont put pepper and salt on the steak before frying because the pepper can get burnt and the salt takes to much juice out of the meat.
Now im confused which method is better and why
Salt pulls moisture out of the surface of the meat but resting after cooking keeps the juices of your steak in
And I miss Gordon's "IT'S RAAAAAAWWWW!"
This should be the basics of every masterchef competition. See if they truly understand protein

Bro, I almost cried when he cut the steak length-ways.
Maybe it's a Canadian thing.
Tbf, with how they film, they didn’t even need to rest them for 5 mins cause they’re probs taking like 10 min breaks between scenes anyways.
not really, remember they need the steaks on the plate before the time runs out. they don't want the juices spreading across the plate right as they place the steak down on the plate.
He cuts it vertically because it goes across the grain, which is a universal rule when cutting steaks to make the eating process more tender
