That's an ideal level of gray band imo

Of course it's nearly perfect - just a callback to a few weeks ago.

But now to spike a 10 you have to raise calves from birth and massage them daily, feeding them only the finest ingredients.

Saw this pasture raised strip at WH for 13.99 a pound. Guess its not all pricy at WH.

Team pan

Chimichurri

Plated with seared bananas. Camera went out of focus a bit, not trying to pull a fast one on you guys.

Amoeba's excellent looking steak above also warrants the question: When does crust end and grey band begin?

He disappeared after getting called out for his real talk. And then everyone overcompensated for his absence by pretending every steak you make isn't world-class.

Devil,

I reckon, but this was shipping "direct from supplier", which we both know is in LA, to DC metro. And it was 20 lbs. And I'm pretty sure it was considerably cheaper than my last order, which was for less meat.

Dunno, but I'm not complaining.

So a very tasty experiment today with our last prime NY strip. Team Pan, cooked medium high the whole way in Land O Lakes spreadable butter (taken off at internal temp of 125), using frequent flips and basting. The canola oil inside seemed to slow down the butter's breakdown. I think I've cooked prettier ITT, but taste wise this was easily in the top 20%. I'd love for someone to try this technique and post your results.

Big,

It's gonna be a real shock to the whole steak cooking world if that line of experimentation is continued and results in finding the optimal steak preparation is cooked in margarine!

I bet there's a like a local max on the butter product curve we have to find. Something like:

Butter--good
Spreadable butter--better
I Can't Believe It's Not Butter--best
Margarine--back to good.

What about mayo? Better than butter at grilled cheese apparently.

Going down that tangent, we talked about grilled cheese in mayo. Going to try mayo seared steak.

Edit : Sniped by Gobbo!

I think the results were inconclusive.

Gobbo,

I have extensive experience experimenting with all permutations of grilled cheese. Mayo gets bread crispier, but butter gives better flavor. Optimal I've found is butter plus a little mayo. But not enough difference to actually bother with using mayo.

6:00 for Wagyu action.

I like that there is a restaurant called Wagyumafia. This was filmed at one of their popups.

Also showcased here
