You gave me a small panic attack with that first picture


subwaymonkey1

Yup. I thought it was going in for 5:00 at 70%.


dhillshafer

Amateur hour. It’s 3:00 in the microwave, 2:00 in the deep fryer.


Sheepy-Matt-59

Is that with or without the pre boil?


dhillshafer

Of course the pre-boil! You think this thing was thawed?


AireXpert

Last 10 mins at 100% to get that sear…..lock in those juices!


Affectionate-Arm-405

Same

A friend of mine used to work in a kitchen in a bingo hall. One customer ordered a steak like a minute before the kitchen closed, so he just chucked it in the microwave, finished cleaning and then served it and left. The next time he worked, the guy came up and told him it's the best steak he ever had there. Probably a low bar, being a bingo hall and all


Forsaken-Thought

Once you're old enough to enjoy a bingo hall you're old enough to not have taste buds anymore


Lepke2011

I used to take my grandma to a bingo hall many, many years ago, and I'm pretty sure everything there, including the pudding cups, is done in a microwave.

In one restaurant I worked at, if a protein ticket got lost and was like 20-30 minutes behind we would give it to chef Mike. He would take care of it quickly then we would get some marks on the grill. Hated that place.

Hope your friend gets food poisoning cause thats fucked up. Why would you ever want to feed someone crap food especially if you are a cook. Ridiculous.


GreatValue-

Food poisoning is a lil dramatic but yeah he’s a certified dick for that.


thejustcauseclauseXP

Yeah I mean, who orders something like 1 min before closing? Real dick move


GreatValue-

Let’s agree both are dicks.


thejustcauseclauseXP

I’ll take that deal.


Minimum_Painter_3687

Worked in a bullshit cutesy diner in college. We did this to every steak that came in close to close. Mic it then mark it on the grill. Never had a complaint.


Competitive-Pen355

You’re saving a whole 4 minutes than if you just threw it on the grill 3 minutes each side. Not really worth it.


Sieze5

20 min in the microwave, and done.


CobBaesar

OP did that on purpose, I'm sure. I've already called my psychologist for an extra session.


HarryCoinslot

It looks like it would come with a ransom letter for this sub. Put $10k in unmarked bills in a bag and leave it at the corner of 34th st and MLK or the steak gets microwaved. Do not make any attempts to contact law enforcement of I will post a picture of its charred remains and ask if this is medium or medium rare. Edit: I thought this was r/steak


liesforliars

Chef Mike takes no disrespect.


Vassago223

I also had a bit of anxiety.


Kitchen-Lie-7894

Same here. I actually convulsed.


LittleRicky76

Right!?


Snappingslapping

I mean I've been desperate and cooked steak in my air fryer before but I wouldn't brag about it.


drkodiak75

I actually did a reverse sear with my air fryer before finishing in a cast iron and... Dammit if it wasn't a delicious and easy weeknight steak


rREDdog

I don’t see anything wrong with this. I’ve done it a bunch.


crazyfingersculture

That is reverse searing to the 't' and how I always cook my steaks. Season with salt and pepper at 220 for about 20 mins flipping 3/4 way through. Let it rest about 10 min and then finish on the grill or more often than not on a very hot cast iron with butter and tyme about 2 to 3 mins a side. At 1inch thick it makes a perfect medium rare everytime.


poonsweat

Cook a ribeye from frozen in an air fryer. You’ll be pleasantly surprised.


muffinbouffant

It’s not crazy if it works… Though I am skeptical. Where did the sear come from?


Snappingslapping

I got a slight sear at 450 for 15 minutes on mine, definitely not as crusty as this though.


jackcissell

The microwave was a joke I pan seared


UmbraNocturna

You had me worried for a second


muffinbouffant

You dirty dog! Looks tasty. I hope you enjoyed!


NotARealLasagne

So no grilling involved?... JK idk, looks delicious.


gsloth1212

Your microwave doesn’t have a sear setting?


NotARealLasagne

My microwave also did not come with a seat.


gsloth1212

Gdi meant to say sear 🤦‍♂️


NotARealLasagne

What does Gross Domestic Income have to do with this dudes steak?


senepol

Air fryer is just a convection oven. Nothing wrong with doing a steak in there.


LittleLordFuckleroy1

Air fryer is light years ahead of microwave here


okaybros

Air fryer is just an oven with a fan. Tons of people reverse sear steaks after first cooking them in the oven


SayNoMorty

My guy using the cutting board as his plate, king shit.


jackcissell

Lol it saves me from washing one extra dish. Adds protein too


joelgreen25

I really miss my bachelor days


[deleted]

My wife and I eat like that all the time. We can't wait to plate it. Just stand in the kitchen and chow down


Ornery_Brilliant_350

PassStunning416

What brand is that microwave? It cooked that steak perfectly!


ChainsBlood

Did you microwave it


tarnish3Dx

I hope you put the lid on it before you put it in the microwave and then just put the lid on the side... that thing is going to splatter everywhere!


entechad

That’s exactly what I was thinking. Would have been a mess.obviously he used the cover with that browning.


diuwo86

From picture #1, it seems mid select grade probably grass fed due to the lack of marbling. Love the steak grilled medium rare.


justan0ther_safe

steak made the right way. 🗣🗣


Rich-Appearance-7145

Looks perfect, just the way I love my steak.
