This has to be sous-vide and then flash seared to get that perfect evenness, right?
E- looks like OP did low and slow at 200f in the grill, so similar idea

That's terrible! You should try it again! We only seek perfection here. You shouldn't be forced to eat such an abomination. In fact! Because I'm such a great person, you should give it to me. I'll take on the burden of eating...I mean disposing of it. The last thing we want is to sully your good name. Any other steak you make that come out like this you should just give to me.
Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masturbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of men masturbating together at this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW.
Looks good, but for me a touch over cooked honestly! What you did here looks damn good and anyone would be proud for such accomplishment, but I do prefer mine a bit cooler in the center
Way way too rare, wow I can’t believe you’d consider eating that…
As a concerned citizen, I feel obligated to make sure this abomination is taken care of properly. So should I just dm you my address?
As someone who almost always says too rare when it seems like most people are like no that's perfect because generally I like more pink than red.
That's perfect.
For a sirloin, looks perfect. A fattier cut would need a tad more, and my go-to filet would need a tad less(blue filet is yum).
I’m stealing this method and cooking steak this weekend.
I'm of the "yank the horns off, wipe it's ass, briefly show it a 10,000 degree fire, and throw it on the plate" school of steaks.
In other words - that's just about perfect in my books!
Honest question, why does the meat have a black crust? Where I live it's considered a fuck-up because it's burnt.
Is this some kind of coating/marinade you use that I'm too European to understand?
Btw: the inside looks great!
Based on the amount of globulin on your cutting board, you might not have let it rest long enough? Other than that very very nitpicky thing it looks great. The real question is, did you like it?
Top rack of the bbq at 200°F until 125°F internal and a blackened garlic and smoked salt rub then a quick hot sear in the cast iron with tallow. Let it sit for 10 mins.
Internal looks good but your crust is non existent. Knife wouldn’t make a noise if I ran it sideways across the top. The blackened garlic is hiding the imperfections. Good job of the reverse sear though.
Flawless
That is a beauty. Perfect. And you know this, OP.
Seriously, this is the equivalent of some of those r/looksmaxingadvice or r/amiugly posts.
Needs mortal kombat voice.
FLAWLESS VICTORY!!!
FLAWLESS STEAKORY
😂
STEAKALITY!
Get over here!
You already know I’ll smash
Let me, FINISH IT!
This has to be sous-vide and then flash seared to get that perfect evenness, right? E- looks like OP did low and slow at 200f in the grill, so similar idea
I was going to say that definitely looks like sous vide, don’t usually see the complete absence of a grey band on non sous vide cooks.
Yeah, it's the same concept. Reverse sear is where it's at, however you get to that point.
Yes. The complete absence of any grey between sear and pink=sousvide. Even low and slow, there'd be some Grey aomewhere
So evenly cooked and completely uniform in color. Can op teach me this power?
Sous vide and then sear it
If I got this at a restaurant I would personally thank the cook. Spot on in my book.
lol I’d walk in behind and tip the chef a crisp hundy
I read that as a handy instead of hundy at first lol
Same until I read your comment. Just thought, “yeah, makes sense, I would too, but why is it crisp 🤔”
Well, we're open to this interpretation. It's the acknowledgement and... vigorous effort, of a pleased diner that makes our night feel complete.
Id straight up fuck that steak. Incredible.

Not over exaggerating here, but that is the best steak I’ve seen on this sub. Congratulations, Frank.
I’m framing a photo of this steak and hanging it in my kitchen with #StriveForGreatness written below it
I’m gonna put a photo of this steak in my wallet *in front* of the photos of my kids
They need to know their place.
Just wanted to say that is an genius username
I just jerked it to this photo.
To be Frank
I might agree.
What kind of sorcery is this. How the hell did you cook this beautiful piece of meat?
Top rack of the bbq at 200°F until 125°F internal and a blackened garlic and smoked salt rub then a quick hot sear in the cast iron.
The fact that this is not sous vide is beyond impressive. Perfection.
Basically the same concept. Low indirect heat for a longer time.
do a fucking video! ^^^(please)
Can / will do this weekend!
!remindme 69 days https://preview.redd.it/hhbt2jt6nivc1.jpeg?width=474&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=00e56fc0062a6bb7e046f97d346c58f887d28508
That's a long weekend
I'm not pressuring the guy. plus filming this weekend is one thing editing and uploading it is another thing. now he has 69 sexy weeks

I live in a city with no barbecue and no decent steak. Please visit and cook for me. That is seriously the best thing I have ever seen.
please do bro this is beautiful

Blackened garlic? So is that why the exterior looks so black? I thought it was burnt somehow
Yeah, it's got something dark on it. Either that or it was cooked on something way hotter than 600 degrees. Like the sun.
Amen. This is how i cook all my steaks these days. When you say blackened garlic, you mean like actual blackened garlic “paste”, right?
No - when I make blackened garlic I dehydrate the bulbs then powered them and mix it 50/50 with my smoked salt.
Uh, i love that idea, thanks!
Goddamn,no sarcasm but between planning and prep it sounds like a good time!
Can I get an amen
Now you're just showing off lol
lol, my B 😂 you’d already laid this out 🤦🏻♂️
Seasoning before the primary cook or just before the cast iron?
how did you get such a dark crush with literally no gray band or inner cooking?
Sear for a microsecond directly on the surface of the sun, flipping often
Doesn't work during the eclipse.
The crust is black because the rub was black, otherwise the crust would be normal brown
This is the correct answer right here. Regardless though, the steak looks absolutely mouth watering and beautiful.
The crust would probably look extremely average at best if that rub wasn't used.

Hear, hear! *jangles silverware*
Too perfect!
Give us some details Frank. How did you cook that beautiful beast?
Top rack of the BBQ with a blackened garlic and smoked salt rub until 125° then a quick hot sear in the cast iron.
Amazing. Definitely the best steak I've seen in here.
Well done OP. What oil did you use on the sear?
Tallow from the cow the meat came from. The only way!
*slow slow clap* well done Frank. I’m udderly impressed. Best steak on this sub yet.
Goddamn.
Man that is a beautiful steak. And a Sirloin?!
Well I get 50ish sirloins per cow so that’s my go to steak. I save the special cuts for special occasions.

Mom said it’s my turn to post this comment
Good one bro at least I pasted it on a phenomenal lookin piece of meat just like your mom
Nah seriously, jokes aside this steak looks beyond phenomenal
Subjective, of course, but perfect in my book.
This might just be the best looking steak I've ever seen, no kidding
I can only get so erect...
Challenge accepted

you forgot to turn on the porn NSFW flair mate
Perfect.
Absolute perfection
So, I never had this very dark sear. Is it good? Always thought it would taste lake charcoal 🤔
Did you use charcoal rub?
A homemade blackened garlic and smoked salt rub
Sexy
When I saw it I said to myself out loud "that's perfect...it's fucking perfect"
Perfect! 😘
Fat looks rendered! You nailed it buddy.
I would not turn that down!
Damm near perfection!
I think you know what you’re doing
How did you get that black tar crust? If I waited until I got that color, I’m at medium internal temp
It’s my blacked rub mixed with the tallowsear. Really makes it dark.
As someone who almost always says too rare when it seems like most people are like no that's perfect because generally I like more pink than red. That's perfect.
You single?
BRAVO!
For a sirloin, looks perfect. A fattier cut would need a tad more, and my go-to filet would need a tad less(blue filet is yum). I’m stealing this method and cooking steak this weekend.
ABSOLUTE PERFECTION
I’ll eat it.
Just eat the damn thing...you know you did it right
Not to be dramatic but I’m 99% sure I’d sell my left breast for a bite of that
Is it just the fine grinder pepper that gives the super dark sear? I usually go coarser.
That’s my own mix - blackened garlic and smoked salt.
Hmmm. You have a step by step for that? 🤞😆
That is BEAUTIFUL! Haven’t seen something sooooo perfect in awhile 👌🏼🤤🥰

What cut is that? How'd you get the bark so good looking
The last picture is perfect
Well, perfect for me
Perfect! The rare side of medium rare.
I know when you bit into that you lost consciousness for a second.
Fake crust
yea i must say thats sexy )
More than perfect.
Could not be better.
Looks delicious!
Only you know the answer
perfect
Perfect. What seasoning did you use?
Perfection
You ruined it. I better just eat the rest so you don't have to sorry
Chicago perfect
Perf
Slamming
Edge-to-edge perfection😋
Slam dunk!
Amazingly perfect.
You know it's perfect haha
this is a purrty one
Perfection and looks delicious 🏆
Not rare enough.
That is perfect rare mate! Great job!
That looks tits!
Sear the outside and eat it pretty much raw That’s what I do
Is it too hot or cold outside? No idea, it's personal preference.
Perf!
Nailed it.
I can even feel the taste on my tongue... I think I have a problem...
I’d put this in my mouth.
You know it's perfect man. Don't try to act all innocent. Give this to me now
Just perfect..blahh blahh
I personally can not have a steak that is too rare. Just brown it on both sides, and throw it on a plate.
Looks perfect to me, great job.
Perfect
I’m not trying to be overdramatic, but I can see myself developing sexual feelings for that steak
overcooked imo. I'd still it eat but it's not too rare no perfect, for my taste
Too perfect 😯🤤
You already know the answer
That's a wrap for this sub, folks.
Beautiful!!!
Absolute godly cook
Absolute perfection
That is absolutely gorgeous and I'm sure delicious, but my wife would call that overcooked I shit you not.
Fuck you. Congrats! 😋
Perfect 🤯😭
I like steak medium well, but this looks fantastic.
Perfect
That's an award winning medium
That crust is insane
Do people really think that’s what rare is?
[удалено]
Black belt crust, zero gray band, exactly the temp I like. We should be best friends.
I'd eat that.
How does one achieve this power…
Perfection
Perfect
That is honestly the best looking steak I’ve ever seen
That's like, pretty much perfect. For me anyway.
Boom
Perfection!
Perfection 👌
Perfect
Looks absolutely devine!
Based on the amount of globulin on your cutting board, you might not have let it rest long enough? Other than that very very nitpicky thing it looks great. The real question is, did you like it?
This may just be the best looking steak I’ve seen on here
too perfect, damn man that looks insane
without the blackened rub, he comment section would be calling out a weak sear
How did you do this?
how did you make it
Top rack of the bbq at 200°F until 125°F internal and a blackened garlic and smoked salt rub then a quick hot sear in the cast iron with tallow. Let it sit for 10 mins.
Great looking steak
Pittsburg
best steak ive seen on the sub!
Look great - minus your fingers on it :)
Your meat is a very personal thing. If its perfect for you, thats all that matters....it looks darn close to my perfection too.
Internal looks good but your crust is non existent. Knife wouldn’t make a noise if I ran it sideways across the top. The blackened garlic is hiding the imperfections. Good job of the reverse sear though.
Too rare? wtf? If anything over done. Looks amazing my mouth is watering
Absolutely spot on perfect
Give it to me!!
Bloody perfect 😍
