  • Whether you are searing a beautiful filet or grilling up some meat for sizzling fajitas, steak is always a crowd pleaser at the dinner table. However, steak can be deceptively complicated when it comes to cooking it properly. For instance, your meal could be ruined before you ever leave the meat aisle of the supermarket. Steak is also not cheap, which is why we normally reserve it for celebratory meals. The pressure of ruining an expensive piece of meat really ups the, well…, stakes when it comes to successfully preparing a special occasion meal. There are very common mistakes we all make that have very easy fixes. In this video, we’ll tell you the mistakes everyone makes when cooking steak.

      @@alexojideagu actually comes out a little better if salted at least 1 hour prior l. So, might as well least it rest in microwave or counter while waiting that hour. Personal experience verifies steaks come out a bit juicier using that method and it's not psychological either. But, you're free to keep believing someone else's testing and making normal steaks if you wish. I personally actually avoid some restaurants (none steakhouses) because some cook steak straight from fridge and always leave disappointed because mine come out way better. Mostly because I'm able to choose the cut and the method I use to cook it.

    I've tried both letting the steak warm up to room temp and straight from the fridge. What happens is the inside is too cold so I end up having a good char on the outside but the inside is super rare because it was so cold. But when I leave it out the meat cooks evenly and quickly and perfect medium cooked throughout. I think the most important thing is letting the steak rest and breath and relax after you get it off the grill. That's the most important thing

    The biggest mistake when cooking steak would be watching this video. Never freeze a steak. if you're going to use a thermometer use one of the leave-in thermometers. Do not constantly flip the steak unless you are already done with the sear or you will end up without a good crust and likely will have a very thick grey zone.

      @@bryal7811 You are monumentally stupid, and here is how I will disassemble you:
      First, I did not deflect, but your claim that I did was a deflection. You could have simply stated your credentials. The fact that you didn't leads to the obvious: you couldn't.
      "Many chefs on TV..." You proved my suspicions correct: You think TV is real and you actually get your "knowledge base" from it. Not culinary classes, not certifications, not huge manual and culinary formulas honed over decades of culinary preparation by masters in the field beginning with Escoffier. You are more a Rachel Ray, Martha Stewart kind of a moron.
      "You claim however, they're not chefs specifically because of the tools they're using.". I never made such a claim, that makes you a liar and one who is prone to deflection.
      " people clearly cooked beef far before that." No shit Sherlock. Beef cooked rare and medium rare is a much more recent trend...AAAANNNNDDDD culinary preparation does nothing but get better and smarter as more advanced method become available to us....just like almost everything in life.
      "I bet they cooked it correctly too". There is no such thing as one correct way to cook something. Things are cooked to the liking of the chef or guest. Period.
      " I bet none of them were REAL chefs am I right?". My gut suspicions are that you are rarely right. Again, you are trying to twist my words into your mumbo jumbo.
      I worked with a few chefs that used the "pinch" method. These were lower end chefs that had not made it far and were prone to believing old wives tale methods of cooking. They had never really proven themselves and were just happy with where they were at in their career. Sous chefs. Cook 3's. Cook 2's. Professionals knew better and used thermometers. You see, everyone's hand is different. Some have more muscle and some are more flabby. This alone make this method unreliable. Boom! That was your head exploding.
      You can actually waste less of your time on here getting smacked around by me and go to other places on the internet that will explain these principles. AVOID celebrity chef hogwash, and that means RUclips. Jamie Oliver is a complete talent-less hack. Chef John has a lot of personality and credentials but is no match for an actual culinary textbook. I suggest you investigate the principles of Sous Vide cooking because this very precise technique RELIES on exact temps for exact doneness. Now have fun and run along!

      @Gavin Singh Ha. Have you ever worked in a steakhouse Gavin? Because regardless of wanting or not, steaks do rest before they are served. How/why? Well, there is always a delay between your steak being ready and it being served. Also, there are plenty of videos on youtube of chefs in high end restaurants resting their steaks. And if the steak is properly cocked, there shouldn't be any harmful bacterias on it.
      Seems to me like YOU feel insecure about your cooking.

    • @CptVein
      @CptVein 5 лет назад +3

      @Gavin Singh I thought you were talking about resting the steak after cooking it. And the reason you leave the steak get to room temperature is not for internal temperature. That is obviously retarded. The reason you do let it rest is because if you don't, you get a tougher steak. If you cook it straight from the fridge, the steak is shocked from the sudden change of temperature and that makes it slightly tougher.
      I mean, worst case, just do the test yourself. Maybe you won't see a difference. Maybe you will. I tried both and I did notice a tougher steak when I did not let it rest. I also find that it makes it easier to cook but I realize that that's just my preference and not because the steak is ''warmer''.

On one hand it tells you the best way to cook a steak is frozen, then the next clip they tell you to wipe the moisture away from the steak... which is it? Do we want to cook of the moisture like you would thawing out a frozen steak through the cooking process, or should we pat the meat?... Also any time you freeze then thaw any food it looses some of its flavor.

    Pan seared over medium heat, sauteed in butter and garlic with salt, pepper, garlic salt and onion powder. Touch of Worcestershire towards the end. Flip the meat every 30 seconds to a minute cooking to desired doneness.
    Here's my secret/preferred method. After resting your steak a few minutes slice into 1/2 inch cuts. Return the steak back to the pan along with any juices and use the pieces to deglaze any bits left stuck to the pan. Flip quickly removing any pink and pour milk to finish deglazing and capture all the butter, garlic, seasoning and steak juice. May need to remove the steak for a second resting period while the milk reduces to a sort of flourless gravy and to ensure it doesn't over cook. Once it's thickened return the steak to the sauce and simmer.
    The result, a perfectly cooked "well done" steak that isn't dry or tough or over cooked and is bursting with flavor from the juices being cooked instead of running red.
    Never liked pink steak or the chewy undercooked texture it brings. Every steak I had was either that or over cooked and dry. Finally cooked a few sirloin strips myself with this method cause I've always loved the flavor of steak and the texture of the fully cooked edges and figured I could flash sear strips to remove the pink and it turned out perfectly. Takes a lot of attention flipping constantly. I read online that flipping constantly keeps it from drying out and it really does. I know why people think well done ruins it but that's because most cook their steaks on high heat to sear it. Medium low adding butter if needed achieves the same thing and IMO even better because the juices that are typically left red actually cook too give the steak flavor we all love. I'm confident that if everyone who claims to love their steaks medium rare to medium well tried this a vast majority would change their mind.

    For the Anglo Saxon countries out there, "Kosher" salt is just what we know as coarse salt, mineral salt or sea salt derived. It has a lower melting point in water than table salt because it's coarser. You get different kinds of coarse salt, some is flaked, others lumpy crystals. For a nice sear the lumpy crystals like coarse sea or rock salt are the best on meat, roasts in particular, with steak slightly less coarse. Just adjust your grinder. Flake salt is more a finishing salt not a cooking salt as it has a very low melting point, almost instant, the better quality ones like Maldon UK and Jacobsen USA, Fleur de Sel Fr should be used as a light seasoning just before eating, they're less harsh and don't linger on the tongue and over power the food. Pure rock or coarse sea salt is used for cooking and indeed "Koshering" meat which is the Jewish practise of removing blood from meat. Coarse salt is needed in cooking because heat, oil and other moist ingriedients dillute the salt in the cooking process. For Koshering because it's more effective at drawing out the moisture or blood because it takes longer to dissolve. Ordinary table salt is just the same basic Sodium chloride but much finer and with additives to keep it dry and flowing, often enriched with things like iodine for health reasons. Americans have it slightly confused and call flake salt koshering salt, but it's not of course.

    There are many mistakes by watching this video. Peanut, canola, extra light olive oil as mentioned in this video, are all some of the worst oils you can possibly use to cook steak. The extra light olive oil is the best of the bunch but its still not right for cooking steak. I like to use avocado because of the high smoke point, very mild flavor, and lower omega-6 content than oils like peanut, canola, and corn. And I also use Australian extra virgin macadamia nut oil because of its mild buttery nut flavor, high smoke point, and also its very low, almost no omega-6 content, which is what is wrong with the standard American diet of having way too much omega-6 in everything, which oxidizes over high heat. I have used an avocado/macadamia nut oil mix for steak and it produced wonderful results. This mix also dilutes the omega-6 content of the avocado oil even more. Try it for yourself!

Two things that I can say is that I would NEVER recommend cooking a steak from frozen that is absolute nonsense and absolute disrespect to the meat. Also it is a lot better to bring you steak to room temperature as you will have a way better internal colour on your meat if you cook it from cold you will develop a gray ring in the inside and only the middle will be pink which results in a improperly cooked piece of meat.

    I rinse the steak and pat dry. The water pressure is not high enough high enough to blast anything out of the sink. After patting dry I season the steak. But I use the rub in method and not a light sprinkle (I use the back of a normal spoon to rub it in). Then I get a one gallon zip lock back and put about 2 tbls of olive oil in it. Throw in the steaks and toss. Then I light the charcoal and it will take 30 minutes for it to be ready. That gives the meat time marinade and absorb some of the oil.

      So to clarify for everyone, you can do either for cooking steaks. It depends on you, so if you like the taste of pepper when its freshly ground you can put it after youve rested and cooked the steak. if you like your pepper more subtle and taste more uhh idk how to describe it but cooked lol put it before you cook your steak. This kind of thing only really matters with salting. If you salt your steak before cooking, leave the steak with the salt for at least 30 mins before cooking so that the salt can penetrate through the meat. But if you dont want to wait or you dont like the spices evenly spread and like variation in taste go ahead and salt the steak after its cooked. Well thats all i have to say for yall so thank you if you actually read all this lol.

    One common mistake is salting in advance. Salt extracts the moisture from the meat. If you wanna season in advance, make a seasoning paste with Knorr beef stock cube and olive oil. Plus, it doesn’t wash off when cooking, and won’t overpower the flavour of the beef whatsoever or affect the texture of the beef.

    • @judeflowers2813
      @judeflowers2813 2 года назад

      beef stock cube is basically sodium i.e. salt. I salt mine in advance with Kosher sea salt, sometimes overnight. And even though I'm not an expert steak-maker yet, it does make the steak tender and does not extract moisture if you leave it on long enough. Yes, initially it extracts moisture but if you leave it alone, it will not only reabsorb the moisture but also the sale, resulting in a tender, seasoned steak

      Or just no oil on a decent skillet. It will stick a bit but you won't get the spoiled oil on it clogging up your arteries.

    This is guaranteed to produce a BAD steak!

    Wow! thats about all I can say. You compare cooking a steak to having a conversation. Flip it 900 times. Yea thats a good idea. Cook a frozen steak. Have you lost your damned minds?

    Avocado oil is great for steak, because of it's high smoke point. I like to start my steak fridge cold on my smoker at 200° till it hits 90° internal. Then bring it inside and put it on a really hot skillet with some avocado oil to get a great sear on both sides. Rare to medium rare or it's trash.

    If you can spare 45 mins to an hour, purchase a well marbled rib-eye or striploin thick cut(1.5 - 2 inches) and a good heavy bottom pan you should do the "reverse sear" method and you will have perfect results guaranteed. This is assuming you want perfect mid rare or rare or even "blue" temp throughout the whole steak from edge to edge. If you do tis method you don't even need to rest the meat after cooking.
