Tenderness and texture are actually things that Food Scientists care about, and they can be objectively measured using a couple of methods -- Warner-Bratzler test or texture profile analysis (TPA) aka the "two bite test". I bet someone would be happy to do a collaboration with you and test some of these methods, as scientists love when they can do science for fun and curiosity. A university with a Food Science program, like Texas A&M, would probably have the devices and would love the opportunity to let students work with a popular RUclipsr for science, or a professional lab might even be happy to do a video with you.
The University, yes. The professional lab, if it has some likely means of helping sales without risking harm to them. But that's great info. Id' never heard of Warner-Bratzler tests. Thank you
First thing that was on my mind :) Try 2 options - one full sous vide in a bag, and second one on grill, after some time in cold "sonic" water (ofc in a bag too)
So i did this last weekend with a Tri-Tip @ 55'c (130'f) for three hours in my ultrasonic cleaner, then finished it off on my Weber BBQ with some mesquite wood and it turned out incredible. Much more tender than any tri-tip i've ever had.
Guga & Nate need to make an ultrasonic sous vide machine. Having both built into one device could be the future of sous vide machines. With the added tenderness provided by the ultrasonic generators it should become a standard feature on them.
Dang, with ultrasonic sous vide making it tender while not changing flavor, definitely want to see what it can do with those dollar steaks, eye rounds, or a brisket
See, NOW you already know that it's time for the $1 ultra-sonic streak challenge. Guga has been trying FOR YEARS to find the best way to tenderize cheap cuts of meat and this ultrasonic device seems like a way to do so without impacting the flavor. That being said, since it's a Sous Vide technique I'd like to see him try several different cheap cuts of meat done in this fashion.
it would be interesting to know how long the Ultrasonic needs to be on, to tenderize a steak, and if it also would work if you "tenderize" it befor sousvide cooking it.
Nate is a great combination with you guys! Seems to have great humor which goes with your humor. Haven't seen one of his videos yet but I will. I suspect he has a lot more ideas for experiments as well!
@@benelson12 Yeah, i found him through TKOR. I was sad to see him leave, i loved all the experiments up until grant died, once grant died its like they became strictly a kids channel. They used to do so much cool things. Thats probably one of the reasons nate left.
The ultra cleaner was interesting. Can you try it on tougher cuts that need longer cook times to see if texture and cooking times change and of course flavour 😋 😉
I can see myself in Shark Tank unveiling The Ultrasonic Cooker. Basically it would be the sous vide device combined with the Cleaner but looks and functions like a kitchen appliance. Then eventually I’ll walk out with no deals 😞
@@Eyes0penNoFear It is a thing but they're still using a regular ultrasonic cleaner for cooking. What I mean is a cooking container thats meant only for cooking that provides the ultrasonic and of course the heat. I did a quick search and couldn't find this, maybe I missed it.
I made the side dish for dinner tonight (cuz I feel a lot of your side dishes would be great meals in and of themselves). Just omitted the habenaros and possibly used a bit more wine (no measurements to go on lol) and everyone loved it, even though it came out slightly doughy. The butter sauce is AMAZING.
Honestly, I think a pretty cool experiment for something like this would be to put an immersion ultrasonic agitator in a yeti cooler and do the sous vide holding method for brisket. That would completely change the dynamics of a brisket. I can also only imagine what this would do do chicken breasts, thighs, wings. Can you also imagine doing ground beef like this? Or even making a London Broil steak be a poormans filet.
@@Charok1 using hot water in a Ultrasonic Cleaner can be done typically you want to be careful though because heating could potentially damage the unit if it isn't also a heat sanitizing type
I made a version of the savory monkey bread for dinner. Thanks for the idea! I didn't have big biscuits but I did have a package for making "monkey bread". I tossed the sugary liquid packet and used just the dough. Mine had Beef, Moz Cheese, shallots, garlic, bacon, Bullet Whiskey(to deglaze the pan), some miso paste, truffle seasoning and truffle oil. Topped them with "Menage Butter" from "carrvalleycheese" which is a rich butter made from a blend of goat, sheep and cow's cream. I lucked out and got that amazing butter at a super discount from Grocery Outlet.
I love it when Guga dumps one ingredient after another then goes through all sorts of cooking methods then in the end says "that's as easy as it can get!"
It seems that the ultrasonic treatment does the work of a "hammer" type tenderizer, without so much effect on the exterior. Though it did seem to separate the meat from the connective tissue or simply mechanically break apart the connective tissue a bit on the easy axis. Looks like the treatment might be a good technique, and there's probably a sweet spot somewhere. There's usually too much of a good thing.
Here's something I don't think you've tried: Fermented Shrimp Paste. Also known as BAGOONG in the Philippines and most southeast asian countries. Commonly found in most asian supermarkets or well stocked asian sections in mainstream american supermarkets (ie not that hard to attain). Perhaps try initially as a compound butter? Or a dry aging method? Or a marinade when putting into sous vide? I'd be interested to see if you're down for trying, Guga.🤔
You've opened a can of worms here. Now you need to show what the ultrasonic can do with tougher cuts of meat. Also, how about different ultrasound duration? 30 minute, 45, 60, 90 minutes? Love your "Monkey bread" idea. I'll definitely be giving that a try.
Nate is one of my favorite people on the Internet, if you haven't seen any of his stuff. Go watch, now. So glad two of my favorite RUclips channels got together!
do you ever make beef jerky? if so, i'd be interested to see whether blasting beef with ultrasonic waves before curing/drying would make a difference in the jerky's outcome
If I had an ultrasonic machine, I might do the tenderizing in a separate step from the cooking. That way you can tenderize for as long as is needed, depending on the type of meat. And you’d have all the cooking options available, not just one.
I loved the collab! You guys made it educational and funny! Great work guys. I’ve been watching both of you for years now and I rarely miss one of your videos. As soon as I saw it was going to be a supersonic steak I had a feeling it was going to be Nate at the controls lol great work fellas!
I am shocked! I thought the Ultr-Sonic treated steaks would not have made any difference! AND if it worked for steak, then it would also work for pork and chicken and other meats! I gotta see if this would work for even some fruits that are not easy to chew!
will probably work on most things because it just tears the fibers apart. I'm guessing if you cook potatoes or carrots like this they will get a grainy texture though
For the ultrasonic sample, was the water heated? If so what temperature? How long was the machine vibrating the steak? How long was the steak in the warm water?
He should surprise Mamou with a few eye-rounds made with sous vide and the ultrasonic and finished with butter and the torch. Bonus if he presents them as filet mignon
For a future side dish, try cooking potatoes sous vide in the ultrasonic before frying them. There's a very old episode of "Adam Savage's Tested" where a chef claimed to get extra-crispy french fries using that technique.
In the original recipe, the potatoes were cut into fries, cooked sous vide in salted water, then placed in an ultrasonic machine to give them a rough texture, and then flash-fried.
Wondering how well the immersion ultrasonic cleaners work. It'd be more compatible with the available space in my kitchen and I could use it with the same containers I use with my sous vide. (Perhaps both at the same time for some applications.)
So this means, that the lesser-priced, lean and more tough cuts of meat as: chuck, brisket (/corned beef), shank, plate (skirt, hanger steak), flank, and round (/eye of round/top round/london broil) ... have just gained massive price appeal. You can make them more tender, juicy, and edible at a lesser price. With hyperinflated prices going on - this now makes more sense in using this ultrasonic and sous vide method - and still be able to enjoy good cuts of edible meat at affordable costs. More bang-chew for the bucks. Shhhh - don't tell this to steak restaurants as they will switch over to these cuts and ultrasonic machines - and make more profits - if the customers are not told what cuts of meat they are eating.
That side dish! I saw this vid when it dropped and I had to make those one day this week. I used breakfast sausage rather than ground beef and they turned out amazing. I'll say this... wrapping those little buggers was a challenge and you skipped over the messy and hard part! Still a keeper and despite the pain in the hind end, I'll make them again.
I love watching KOR . They have some awesome experiments. You should try doing a dry aging experiment using pure capsaicin, liquid smoke, and mango. I think it will be amazinc
Hello Guga , this is Rey Morales from Chicago I follow you on your channels I just saw the one with ultra sonic and steak I have one for you that you want to accomplish, try the ultra sonic cleaner machine on your famous eye round☺️. Find out if it makes it as tender as your filet mignon. Good luck Guga
It makes sense to combine tougher cuts with ultrasonic wave/sous-vide heated water baths. At some intersection point, sanitation and tenderness might merge without needing the longer cook times found with sous vide.
You also need to try a marinade penetration experiment in the ultrasonic machine. There are several people who are experimenting with rapid flavor infusions because of the ultrasonic machine.
Hurricane Ian took out my electricity for weeks 😭 now binge watching all of his videos 🤣. Can't wait to get a new house so I can start trying these recipes myself 😊.
the way I understood this experiment is that the meat fibers were seperated.... like ... meat fibers are like hair that is superglued to itself, and you simply weakened the glue.... could be good for the tough muscle meat I guess...
You know what I'd love to see from your videos, Guga? More experiments with all different types of cuts. Not just the ones everyone goes for like Ribeye, Filet, and Strip. Also like the eye round you do every once in a while lol. But like finding ways to maximize the flavor from different cuts. Like for example I think if you used that ultrasonic machine on a bottom round steak you could make it restaurant quality even though normally it's super tough (but oh my god it has so much flavor). Just an idea but I'd love to see it.
I want to try the ultrasonic cooking method. I saw you had a soux vide inside the ultrasonic cleaner set at 129 degrees. But I also saw that the ultrasonic cleaner was set at 44 celsius for 30 mins. The steaks were 1.5 inches thick. Was 30 mins enough for a 1.5 inch steak? Did you set the ultrasonic temp to 44 degrees celsius as well as set the soux vide to 129 degrees?
Hey Guga! There’s actually a scientific measurement you can probably use to assess tenderness. It’s called durometer and it’s used to measure the hardness of gels, silicones, plastics, and other things. Your steaks might register in the 00 range. I’d be very curious to see the differences between cuts and cook methods
The chew-number-comparison made me like the video :) That's no joke actually a great way to rate tenderness. But you don't have to go full Boyle and start with "mouth feel" though..
Time for eye-round steaks in the Ultrasonic! Let's do it!
