Corned beef doesn't have any effect on the cattle other than killing them in the first place. You don't get corned beef because of how an animal is raised or slaughtered. It's just a specific type of brisket cut that's brined in salt water. That's it. It's salt beef brisket.

If blue rare is done properly then it is NEVER cold or raw. It is brought properly up to temp but for less than three seconds. It takes so much training to be able to gain certification (and yes it requires certification to be allowed to cook blue rare in restaurants) that chefs who can do it can write their own ticket. Restaurant owners will declare corporate war when one of these chefs posts their resume. Properly cooked, blue rare is the most tender, juicy, dissolves upon touching the tongue piece of heaven you can ever eat.
"I will commit war crime on that burger!" That had me rolling for so long! I hereby inform you that I'm stealing that phrase. edit: I also rolled as the 'going full Hachama chaos status'.
Fun fact about the Whitmer plot was the fact that most of the plotters were essentially double agents, as in they were fed agents thinking they were about to bust a big group, only when they did, they discovered most of the group were also fed agents and only like 1-3 of the people were actually going to kidnap her. It's like when a bunch of agents trying to bust a traffick ring bust another group who are also trying to bust a trafficking ring, and it's just two sets of government agents accidentally spending months trying to bust each other thinking the other group were criminals. Edit: Which caused a lot of blowback on the FBI for not stopping it way sooner, and making it seem that either, A) they had no coordination and were inept, or B) were corrupt and trying to get someone to break the law for political reasons.
You forgot the FBI tried to claim jurisdiction over the case and got sued by the state of michigan. Another good example of honeypot fuckups would be that 90s KKK bust where state police infiltrators arrested anti-terror ops infiltrators arrested FBI infiltrators arrested CIA infiltrators arrested ATF infiltrators arrested citizen infiltrators who were promised pardons for infiltrating the KKK. I forget the specific list of agencies, but it was like a 5 agency pileup it turned out one agency had founded it as a honeypot in the first place, with different sources claiming as many as two actual members to as little as zero.
The Navy does have a list of items that are considered contraband aboard ship, and they do have a system similar to the amnesty boxes Zach Hazard describes. However they do not have to deal with the same level of restrictions as ground based forces (except when sailors on are shore leave). The ground based forces have to not only abide by military regulations but the laws of the hosting nation as well. Hence why porn and alcohol were contraband on Zach's Army base as they are illegal in Iraq.
But honestly, any contraband would just get dropped over the side. They may not officially look into who dropped something off, but there would be a record of what was dropped in a box, anything dropped overboard might as well never existed in the first place.
In regards to the H&K M16 mags, if they're the ones I'm thinking of I totally get why he kept them. I used to sell magazines for a living, and the H&K AR15 mags we sold (which would of course fit an M16 since it's the same platform) were stainless steel, with a steel follower and a very good spring. The finish was corrosion-resistant as well. They were VERY high quality mags. One guy bought a bunch from us, took them out into the desert, and then used them so heavily over the course of a few years that the finish was entirely worn off, and he said they still fed smooth as butter. We sold those mags for 40 bucks a pop (though nowadays they go for closer to 60 afaik) and almost always sold out. Every now and then at gun shows we'd get some military members buying them. I now wonder just how many of those were actually for personal weapons and how many were bought so they could be resold on base or because someone wanted to see if they could get away with using them in their M16
Thank you for that clarification on the mags! i've been looking at getting out of the polymer mag space due to them just being unreliable, fixing an AR feeding issue should never include having to check your magazine. Overgassing and Undergassing, annoying but makes sense. I'm just paying the premium for good mags at this point.

Hey, don't say that. I always seek out conversation with the nearest Submariner when I'm looking for some good old sodomy. Not that cheap store-bought stuff either, the full "you were hiking in the mountains and accidentally crossed an armed hillbilly's property line" sodomy experience. The kind that makes you fart duelling banjos afterwards.
P.S. As long as the beef hasn't went through blade tenderization, and hasn't been ground up, it's perfectly safe to do a steak rare. You are cooking off any bad bacteria on the outside, and there isn't any of that to kill off on the inside. No, that is not blood. Stop calling it blood. The word you are looking for is "myoglobin." Chicken has to be cooked all the way through to ensure it is safe to eat because the bad bacteria is found on the surface and within the chicken.
So my mother tends to fuck up most meat dishes. The key to solving this is a newish sausce i found called vrabasco its basically tabasco but with different peppers, added spices and a bit of orange for flavor. It fixes most things ,still can't save her chicken
How to cook a steak: Step 1: Season your steak with salt pepper and garlic powder on all sides. Less is more in this regard, try not to use too much. Step 2: Cook your steak until slightly pink on the inside. This is medium rare. There are other ways to cook your steak including Blue Rare (heavy sear, very tender) Rare (cooked until I think it's 230 degrees Fahrenheit on the inside. Tender) Medium Rare (Standard for newcomers, very tender with heavy flavor. A good balance) Medium Well (Well done except it conserves some tenderness and taste) Well Done ( You're an actual psychopath if you like this. Takes decades to chew thru and tastes like chicken covered in gasoline turned into rubber and set on fire.) Step 3: Let the steak rest for 2-6 minutes depending on what level you cooked it to. Well done being the max, blue Rare being the least.
prior enlistested second class from the navy here and i can tell you that all alcohol was "SUPPOSE" to be given to the chief master at arms the second you came back to the boat while on deployment. as far as things like porn went, no one gave a fuck. no one had porn mags, but we all had external hard drives that we traded to copy porn and movies onto cause if you werent playing video games, working out or sleeping when off watch, you were watching a movie or tv series. its how i got into game of thrones when it first came out.
Navy has a drawer or space in your rack (bed basically with 4 different compartments) that is basically your space. Every other part is for uniform items, another critical clothes for your time on the boat. The AB drawer is basically your space. Limited space so its for all your things like mail, books. Anything small that can fit in it and still let you lock the damn thing. Never got to pass basic but it was common to swipe tea or peanut butter cups and stash them in there until after taps. Cant speak for the sailors that passed but that was my limited experience. Still had a fun time looking back
@@KipReacts My favorite thing I ever heard my CO say to a couple of mechanics who were missing some parts for a repair: *Sigh* “Okay tactically acquire them from somewhere and make sure they won’t be missed.”

Thanks for the Christmas Day content of one of my most favorite Fallout Channels. I'm up and outright dying over your reactions to the steak story. I haven't had meat in over 7 years,and even I know one should probably go for the temps and rares that are not the overcooked leather that is well done steak. 🤣 Also, chili has beans in it or it's just Texan meat sauce.
So funny story, great to see another cook. According to the FDA and health department, medium rare chicken is able to be served. It has to come up to a temp of 145 degrees, and held at a constant 145 for 10 minutes straight. For every 5 degrees you scale up, you remove 2 minutes of hold time. This is why you get the 165 and it's good to serve immediately. That being said, I personally would never send out a 145 chicken at a commercial restaurant
I don't trust most kitchens to do it, plus it would put weird strain on the kitchen staff if it's something they don't normally do. Best to just get well-done chicken in my opinion, at least in the US.
@@KipReacts absolutely. But I love it when I say medium rare chicken and people instantly think it's impossible or illegal. No, it just needs some hatred while it's cooking but it'll buff
I just asked my dad, and he said they didn't have amnesty boxes on the ships when he was in the Navy. He said if someone had something they weren't supposed to have, they just threw it over the side before they were caught. Regarding bad exeriences with food, I have two stories, actually. The first was when I was about 12 or so. I had woken up on a weekend to find that the only cereal in the house was peanut butter captain crunch, but there wasn't enough for a full bowl, so I got the brilliant idea to make it with... *_SCRAMBLED EGGS!_* Yes, it was as bad as it sounds, but not as bad as my worst food experience. When I was around 7 or 8, I used to be super into Slim Jims, because when my dad would take me with him somewhere, we'd stop and get a fountain drink or a slurpee, and a Slim Jim. So this one time, my mom had taken me to the base hospital to get my allergy shots (used to get two shots, once a week), and at the hospital PX, they didn't have a soda fountain or anything like that, but they did have Slim Jims. So I got the jerky, and was looking for something to drink in the refridgerator case, and decided to go with... *_CHOCOLATE MILK._* Let me tell you, when that bite of spiced processed meat hit the chocolate milk in my belly,, it was like a switch was flipped. I almost threw up in the parking lot, it was so bad. To this day, I cannot even stand the _smell_ of a Slim Jim. Still love peanut butter captain crunch and scrambled eggs, just not together.
@@KipReacts I look at it as a "live and learn" experience. I lived, and I learned to be more choosey with ingredients when experimenting. (•_•) ( •_•)>⌐■-■ (⌐■_■) *_YYYEEEAAAHHH!!!_*
mozzerella sticks seem to be a really common thing for people to get sick from. last time i had mozz sticks i was in school, and got so violently sick that it took me a solid 24 hours to stop puking. know a lot of people with similar stories
It's because it's a cheese and a starch done up in a probiotic manner, with moisture added in, and if you cook them not very far past the sanitization point, the mozzarella boils out of the breading and jizzes all over your fryer, so they're often undercooked.
Chili is something that varies a lot depending on source and prep. The right chili is a delight. A bad chili is a slog. Edit: Oh, corn beef. The melt in your mouth fatgasmic cut with delightful seasonings.
I need to try more chili variations, I love that shit so much and I rarely get to have any that isn't canned. Corned beef is 100% a food I will order every time if it's an option.
@@KipReacts Only had one canned chili. Brand name Skyline. Never. Again. That was a horrible experience. Nah, if I want chili, chili dogs, or skyline chili, it's with the home made stuff. My dad mixes in sausage with the hamburger.
Navy has a lot of open secrets and fan room stashes. I myself had quite a few flasks of "coffee" that ended up in a gap in a wall in our LFOC (Someone knows that gap. Whisky. Snacks. Hustlers... You name it. All in the gap.) Also, anything in the A n' B Drawer. No questions, no lies, right? There's also the entire "Gear Adrift" locker that the MAs never went into. Why would they?
11:30 i like a lot of foods cooked to the point i get a crunch out of them but meat has never been one of those things and the number of places that confuse "no pink / well done" with "i want a charcoal hockey puck" infuriates me. i rarely cook and im a better cook then almost everyone on both sides of my family. burgers not cooked enough ruined everything not cooked enough for me. 19:40 to the best i can remember from everything i heard during and up to a couple months after: a group plotted against the governor of michigan during the early years of armageddon. the group was made up of a couple stoners along for the ride while agreeing to everything that was suggested and fbi agents that planned everything then turned them in to get promotions and raises. charges were dropped against them because they were stoners and couldn't plan how to tie their shoes. i believe the agents got to keep their promotions / raises and didn't get in trouble for it.
As a USN Sailor myself, I can tell you that the navy is much more loose when it comes to stuff. The only time it actually is really cared about is if a Commanding Officer or some other official is doing an inspection/tour of a ship. I have literally seen "pleasure aids" stuck into hideaways among shipboard cable runs and into high-up, hard to get to holes. Porn is more often than not put into the category of "Lock away when not in use.
after watching the entirety of their FO:NV series and several other of their videos i can say with utmost certainty that what Zach brought home was probably firearm related.
The point of cooking is to denature the protein so that the body can more easily absorb them. If you are not cooking your steak till it is brown all the way through you are not cooking it. You're just warming it up at that point. If you want to still have flavor at that point though, the trick is to not cook it on a grill but on a skillet and let the steaks soak in its own juices while being cooked. Keep it covered so that we would normally be steam stays in. It will taste amazing be properly cooked and you can add seasoning after the fact cuz the meat is still wet.
I gave some of that fake meat to my dog to try once. He sniffed it, p*ssed on it and walked away. That told me everything I needed to know. Besides it brings back memories of reading 1984 "looks like meat, tastes like meat, but it's not meat at all! Double-plus-good isn't it!"
Cows don’t go through anything different when their meat turned into corned beef, the process all takes place after death. It’s just very unhealthy because of fat and salt content. As for the fried ice cream, you can do the cake method but that’s like the jerry-rigging version. The actual version they prescoop the ice cream and put the scoops into a deep freezer, you just have to prepare it beforehand. Another way is by using liquid nitrogen to flash freeze it before dipping it in the batter.
Love your reactions I think you're entertaining to watch, hope you have a Merry Christmas (or any if you celebrate anything else Happy Holidays) glad to be your 1000th sub. Can't wait to see more leading into the new year.
Thank you so much for that 1000th sub! I really appreciate it and it made my night. My notifications don't like feeding me all the comments so I'm manually going through them all.
Growing up in the north (Detroit) chili has beans and what they call chili in the south is goulash up north. So when I came down south for the first time and I was told we're going to have chili I wasn't expecting goulash. XD
I have never liked steak and people always say "You've just never had it cooked right." and I'm just like, "No, you don't understand. I only like meat if it's well done, and well done steak is shit." and they just go, "Oh. Ok." So yeah. I don't like steak.
I feel very similar to Zach, I am 31 now and I never had a good steak, or any for the matter. Thing is, we don't really do beef here in general (except ground beef, mostly for burger patties. So yeah, the best steak I had was a hamburger...), so the few times I had beef it was always on an event or something where they had to prepare for hundreds of people and need to keep it warm and stuff, so it was always kinda like shoe leather. That and, I am convinced, most people here, even average kitchen staff, just Don't know how to prepare steak "properly" since is is so rarely used. Edit: Also, hearing you call any kind of beef a "cheap Proteine" possibly made me pop a blood vessel just now
I honestly like putting cheese and steak sauce on the steak I make because I'm a freak. When I go out to eat though I always have it with sauteed mushrooms. Believe me when I say a medium rare steak goes great with some sauteed mushrooms; you will not regret unless you don't like mushrooms.
Chili has to have beans in it. If it doesnt, it's chili sauce. You can still call it chili, personally i dont care, but if you say you have chili and it doesn't have beans, you'll need to tell me beforehand.
the only good crunchy stake, is beef chips... beef thinly sliced and dehydrated like a jerky. Crunches like a chip, all the beefy goodness.... but if its a standard stake... rare or medium rare is the only way.

Compromised immune system? I'm quite the opposite, I despise well-done meat as it makes my digestive track slow no matter how much water I drink or what type of fiber I consume.

@@KipReacts when in doubt presume it's French. Except fries, there from the village Maes near the river Maes ,namesake of the beer Maes, in Belgium but they speak French, simple as.

ruclips.net/video/LqEXdjVDO5Y/видео.html For when you do finally decide to do your corned beef, Bon Ap has a pretty good recipe on it. As to the rest of the meat question, the "if you did it right you don't need to season it" is an extension of the 1900s "in the old days they used spices to hide that the meat was old"... the rich liked spices until spices got cheap enough that the poor could afford them, then they went to "if you really had money, you could get meat that didn't need spices"... I know a lot from that generation who are anti-seasoning because "are you saying I don't cook well enough?"

P.S. As long as the beef hasn't went through blade tenderization, and hasn't been ground up, it's perfectly safe to do a steak rare. You are cooking off any bad bacteria on the outside, and there isn't any of that to kill off on the inside. No, that is not blood. Stop calling it blood. The word you are looking for is "myoglobin."
Chicken has to be cooked all the way through to ensure it is safe to eat because the bad bacteria is found on the surface and within the chicken.
So my mother tends to fuck up most meat dishes. The key to solving this is a newish sausce i found called vrabasco its basically tabasco but with different peppers, added spices and a bit of orange for flavor. It fixes most things ,still can't save her chicken
How to cook a steak:
Step 1: Season your steak with salt pepper and garlic powder on all sides. Less is more in this regard, try not to use too much.
Step 2: Cook your steak until slightly pink on the inside. This is medium rare. There are other ways to cook your steak including Blue Rare (heavy sear, very tender) Rare (cooked until I think it's 230 degrees Fahrenheit on the inside. Tender) Medium Rare (Standard for newcomers, very tender with heavy flavor. A good balance) Medium Well (Well done except it conserves some tenderness and taste) Well Done ( You're an actual psychopath if you like this. Takes decades to chew thru and tastes like chicken covered in gasoline turned into rubber and set on fire.)
Step 3: Let the steak rest for 2-6 minutes depending on what level you cooked it to. Well done being the max, blue Rare being the least.
prior enlistested second class from the navy here and i can tell you that all alcohol was "SUPPOSE" to be given to the chief master at arms the second you came back to the boat while on deployment. as far as things like porn went, no one gave a fuck. no one had porn mags, but we all had external hard drives that we traded to copy porn and movies onto cause if you werent playing video games, working out or sleeping when off watch, you were watching a movie or tv series. its how i got into game of thrones when it first came out.
Navy has a drawer or space in your rack (bed basically with 4 different compartments) that is basically your space. Every other part is for uniform items, another critical clothes for your time on the boat. The AB drawer is basically your space. Limited space so its for all your things like mail, books. Anything small that can fit in it and still let you lock the damn thing. Never got to pass basic but it was common to swipe tea or peanut butter cups and stash them in there until after taps. Cant speak for the sailors that passed but that was my limited experience. Still had a fun time looking back
The phrase we use is “Tactically acquired”
XD I love this.
"Where did you get that steel H&K Magazine?"
"I tactically acquired it from the proper sources."
@@KipReacts My favorite thing I ever heard my CO say to a couple of mechanics who were missing some parts for a repair:
*Sigh* “Okay tactically acquire them from somewhere and make sure they won’t be missed.”
Shouldn't that be, "Outsourced from a third party"?

Thanks for the Christmas Day content of one of my most favorite Fallout Channels. I'm up and outright dying over your reactions to the steak story. I haven't had meat in over 7 years,and even I know one should probably go for the temps and rares that are not the overcooked leather that is well done steak. 🤣
Also, chili has beans in it or it's just Texan meat sauce.
So funny story, great to see another cook. According to the FDA and health department, medium rare chicken is able to be served. It has to come up to a temp of 145 degrees, and held at a constant 145 for 10 minutes straight. For every 5 degrees you scale up, you remove 2 minutes of hold time. This is why you get the 165 and it's good to serve immediately.
That being said, I personally would never send out a 145 chicken at a commercial restaurant
I don't trust most kitchens to do it, plus it would put weird strain on the kitchen staff if it's something they don't normally do. Best to just get well-done chicken in my opinion, at least in the US.
@@KipReacts absolutely. But I love it when I say medium rare chicken and people instantly think it's impossible or illegal. No, it just needs some hatred while it's cooking but it'll buff
I just asked my dad, and he said they didn't have amnesty boxes on the ships when he was in the Navy. He said if someone had something they weren't supposed to have, they just threw it over the side before they were caught.
Regarding bad exeriences with food, I have two stories, actually. The first was when I was about 12 or so. I had woken up on a weekend to find that the only cereal in the house was peanut butter captain crunch, but there wasn't enough for a full bowl, so I got the brilliant idea to make it with... *_SCRAMBLED EGGS!_* Yes, it was as bad as it sounds, but not as bad as my worst food experience. When I was around 7 or 8, I used to be super into Slim Jims, because when my dad would take me with him somewhere, we'd stop and get a fountain drink or a slurpee, and a Slim Jim. So this one time, my mom had taken me to the base hospital to get my allergy shots (used to get two shots, once a week), and at the hospital PX, they didn't have a soda fountain or anything like that, but they did have Slim Jims. So I got the jerky, and was looking for something to drink in the refridgerator case, and decided to go with... *_CHOCOLATE MILK._* Let me tell you, when that bite of spiced processed meat hit the chocolate milk in my belly,, it was like a switch was flipped. I almost threw up in the parking lot, it was so bad. To this day, I cannot even stand the _smell_ of a Slim Jim. Still love peanut butter captain crunch and scrambled eggs, just not together.
Truly horrible food experiences, I'm so sorry you wen through those as they sound absolutely awful.
@@KipReacts I look at it as a "live and learn" experience. I lived, and I learned to be more choosey with ingredients when experimenting.

Merry Christmas everyone!
mozzerella sticks seem to be a really common thing for people to get sick from. last time i had mozz sticks i was in school, and got so violently sick that it took me a solid 24 hours to stop puking. know a lot of people with similar stories
It's because it's a cheese and a starch done up in a probiotic manner, with moisture added in, and if you cook them not very far past the sanitization point, the mozzarella boils out of the breading and jizzes all over your fryer, so they're often undercooked.
Chili is something that varies a lot depending on source and prep. The right chili is a delight. A bad chili is a slog.
Edit: Oh, corn beef. The melt in your mouth fatgasmic cut with delightful seasonings.
I need to try more chili variations, I love that shit so much and I rarely get to have any that isn't canned.
Corned beef is 100% a food I will order every time if it's an option.
@@KipReacts Only had one canned chili. Brand name Skyline. Never. Again. That was a horrible experience. Nah, if I want chili, chili dogs, or skyline chili, it's with the home made stuff. My dad mixes in sausage with the hamburger.
Navy has a lot of open secrets and fan room stashes. I myself had quite a few flasks of "coffee" that ended up in a gap in a wall in our LFOC (Someone knows that gap. Whisky. Snacks. Hustlers... You name it. All in the gap.)
Also, anything in the A n' B Drawer. No questions, no lies, right?
There's also the entire "Gear Adrift" locker that the MAs never went into. Why would they?
11:30 i like a lot of foods cooked to the point i get a crunch out of them but meat has never been one of those things and the number of places that confuse "no pink / well done" with "i want a charcoal hockey puck" infuriates me. i rarely cook and im a better cook then almost everyone on both sides of my family. burgers not cooked enough ruined everything not cooked enough for me.
19:40 to the best i can remember from everything i heard during and up to a couple months after:
a group plotted against the governor of michigan during the early years of armageddon. the group was made up of a couple stoners along for the ride while agreeing to everything that was suggested and fbi agents that planned everything then turned them in to get promotions and raises. charges were dropped against them because they were stoners and couldn't plan how to tie their shoes. i believe the agents got to keep their promotions / raises and didn't get in trouble for it.
As a USN Sailor myself, I can tell you that the navy is much more loose when it comes to stuff. The only time it actually is really cared about is if a Commanding Officer or some other official is doing an inspection/tour of a ship. I have literally seen "pleasure aids" stuck into hideaways among shipboard cable runs and into high-up, hard to get to holes. Porn is more often than not put into the category of "Lock away when not in use.
The Navy out here giving no fucks and I love it XD
@@KipReacts Trust me, when you are out to sea for 5 months with no internet or phone calls, you gotta make do. XD
@@bloodwolf110 I believe a common problem on-board is known as, "shower jellies"? Talking with military personnel is always a blast.
after watching the entirety of their FO:NV series and several other of their videos i can say with utmost certainty that what Zach brought home was probably firearm related.
Allegedly.
The point of cooking is to denature the protein so that the body can more easily absorb them. If you are not cooking your steak till it is brown all the way through you are not cooking it. You're just warming it up at that point. If you want to still have flavor at that point though, the trick is to not cook it on a grill but on a skillet and let the steaks soak in its own juices while being cooked. Keep it covered so that we would normally be steam stays in. It will taste amazing be properly cooked and you can add seasoning after the fact cuz the meat is still wet.
I gave some of that fake meat to my dog to try once. He sniffed it, p*ssed on it and walked away. That told me everything I needed to know.
Besides it brings back memories of reading 1984 "looks like meat, tastes like meat, but it's not meat at all! Double-plus-good isn't it!"
Cows don’t go through anything different when their meat turned into corned beef, the process all takes place after death. It’s just very unhealthy because of fat and salt content. As for the fried ice cream, you can do the cake method but that’s like the jerry-rigging version. The actual version they prescoop the ice cream and put the scoops into a deep freezer, you just have to prepare it beforehand. Another way is by using liquid nitrogen to flash freeze it before dipping it in the batter.
Love your reactions I think you're entertaining to watch, hope you have a Merry Christmas (or any if you celebrate anything else Happy Holidays) glad to be your 1000th sub. Can't wait to see more leading into the new year.
Thank you so much for that 1000th sub! I really appreciate it and it made my night.
My notifications don't like feeding me all the comments so I'm manually going through them all.
I mean, I had the idea of a jerky burger for those who like well done steak. Jerky is apparently expensive, so might make a good profit on it.
Growing up in the north (Detroit) chili has beans and what they call chili in the south is goulash up north.
So when I came down south for the first time and I was told we're going to have chili I wasn't expecting goulash.
XD
Beans in chili is just filler material.
I have never liked steak and people always say "You've just never had it cooked right." and I'm just like, "No, you don't understand. I only like meat if it's well done, and well done steak is shit." and they just go, "Oh. Ok."
So yeah. I don't like steak.
I used to work in a kitchen, and anytime someone ordered steak well done we’d say.
Got it one boot leather coming up.
XD Accurate, you definitely see the chef get angry.
I feel very similar to Zach, I am 31 now and I never had a good steak, or any for the matter. Thing is, we don't really do beef here in general (except ground beef, mostly for burger patties. So yeah, the best steak I had was a hamburger...), so the few times I had beef it was always on an event or something where they had to prepare for hundreds of people and need to keep it warm and stuff, so it was always kinda like shoe leather. That and, I am convinced, most people here, even average kitchen staff, just Don't know how to prepare steak "properly" since is is so rarely used.
Edit: Also, hearing you call any kind of beef a "cheap Proteine" possibly made me pop a blood vessel just now
Manchu this day I've only known five people that I've ever ordered a code blue
im also a garbage disposal when it comes to food for Christmas morning breakfast i had a left over cold fried chicken sandwich id left out
Respect.
I honestly like putting cheese and steak sauce on the steak I make because I'm a freak. When I go out to eat though I always have it with sauteed mushrooms. Believe me when I say a medium rare steak goes great with some sauteed mushrooms; you will not regret unless you don't like mushrooms.
What Zach has would be my Christmas present
Medium rare is how you gotta order it at a restaurant, but I prefer rare. But when you order rare at a restaurant you either get raw or medium.
Chili has to have beans in it. If it doesnt, it's chili sauce. You can still call it chili, personally i dont care, but if you say you have chili and it doesn't have beans, you'll need to tell me beforehand.
Amnesty Torpedo Tube.
Tactically acquire that torpedo tube. XD
23:09 the same with me but with meatball samiges
the only good crunchy stake, is beef chips... beef thinly sliced and dehydrated like a jerky. Crunches like a chip, all the beefy goodness.... but if its a standard stake... rare or medium rare is the only way.
I will have to try out beef chips, those sound really good!
@@KipReacts I think there's some on amazon, but heads up warning, they are addictive and my friend is currently trying to quit it.... and like a good friend I wanna get her an ungodly box full.
I had some bad experiences with my great grandma pie, to this day I can’t eat a pie without feeling sick 😂
As a Texan, chili does not have beans in it, there is no debate on the matter
There's a joke in danmachi abridge where they eat a fruit that gives you the best high ever they take a bit you hear some say "the prophecy is true" and then it's like from the start of the Big Bang till now that is what happened when he ate the steak
I know exactly that school cheesestick and had the same problem
Medium rare chicken is really tastey actually. However, the risk aint worth it
4:06
Yeah, mine!
Turkey bacon imo is better than normal bacon. Or at least, better than cheap bacon. Turkey bacon is cheap and good.
cannot eat my steak anything else then well done as i get sick if it isnt
Compromised immune system? I'm quite the opposite, I despise well-done meat as it makes my digestive track slow no matter how much water I drink or what type of fiber I consume. Obviously meat that is braised thoroughly isn't a problem, but no well-done sirloin or dry chicken breast. Good luck and do what's best for you brother.
@@mr44mag nah my immune system is fine but my stomach is fucked. like: totaly fucked. worst of all? it has always been that way as long as i can remember
I had to eat all my steaks and other meat well done because I would always get food poisoning if I didn't
I just discovered you today, you seem pretty cool, Mr. Chaos Fox/Cat (idk which one the ears could be either one)
The original design was a cat, but with Shirokami Fubuki existing I take fox as a compliment XD
Nice to meet you, thank you for watching and interacting!
@@KipReacts ahhhh ok gotcha. also, for the bit at 19:24 with the "I must kill the governor", there was a bit in I believe their main modded Fallout New Vegas series where Zach said his wake word as a sleeper agent would be 'Macaroni and Cheese' and then in October of 2020, two months before the original video's release, there was a plot to kidnap the governor of Michigan that was thwarted by the FBI. just some context for you
Take the risk eat the good rare stuff
Corn-beef-hash??????
Chili without beans sucks
Yeah, blue rare sucks, its cold all the way through and raw meat doesnt have much flavor.
Please don't call it steak blue, it's bleu or bleu chaud as someone who prefers this I'm in pain that you call it blue.
But seriously fun vid.
I appreciate the correction, thank you for this!
@@KipReacts when in doubt presume it's French. Except fries, there from the village Maes near the river Maes ,namesake of the beer Maes, in Belgium but they speak French, simple as.
Also mac & cheese was invented in 1769 as an Anglo-Saxon twist to an Italian recipe. Just incase you were still thinking that makes sense.
@@Artselen I've come to the understanding the world makes absolutely zero sense. Then the Matrix starts to collapse around me at random and then everything makes slightly more sense, though everyone else is just increasingly more and more confused.
I'm a blue rare kinda guy
What about blue rare appeals to you? I'm not shaming at all, I'm genuinely curious why you like that rarity.
@@KipReacts well first of all its not something i order at any steak house more something I make for my self. Has to me well marinated and not overly thick. Give it a good high heat Seer on a char grill front and back and edges let rest then dig in and if it's done right you will have the most flavorful and tender steak in your life all in all I'm not an easy answer so sorry about the long rambling comment
@@LoganDeCari Oh no that's perfectly fine! I loved how detailed the answer is, I totally get where you're coming from and you have to have quality steak in order to want blue rare. Thank you for the explanation!
No problem and I feel you on the kitchen stuff I worked in a kitchen for 15 years started as dishwasher and quit as sous chef. And the most aggravating words I ever heard was " 50 top walk in"
@@LoganDeCari That just gave me flashbacks, I felt that on a deep level. They also always show up about an hour to close as well x.x

For when you do finally decide to do your corned beef, Bon Ap has a pretty good recipe on it. As to the rest of the meat question, the "if you did it right you don't need to season it" is an extension of the 1900s "in the old days they used spices to hide that the meat was old"... the rich liked spices until spices got cheap enough that the poor could afford them, then they went to "if you really had money, you could get meat that didn't need spices"... I know a lot from that generation who are anti-seasoning because "are you saying I don't cook well enough?"
THANK YOU FOR THIS! It's so expensive now to buy it pre-made x.x
