I like how it was on the 2nd side for like 10 seconds before it got up to temp. I appreciate fun with robotics and all, but point a gun to my head and I’d rather eat a Deansteak.

Costco's coupons came to my house, and they have A5 Japanese Wagyu on sale for 200 dollars off.

Still 1100 for 13 pounds, but I think it's well worth it! I'm not sure I'm buying it, but I'm strongly considering it!

I've eaten A5 Wagyu once in my life, and paid 95 dollars for 6 ounces. I've been back to Delmonico's in the Venetian since, and the price has gone up to like 110 or a little more. I can tell you that it was an amazing meal, and priced out at less than 100 dollars a pound (from Costco,) it's a great price if you want to try it!

Lol Costco has a coupon for $200 off Wagyu? That's hilarious.

Obviously go for it

I want to and I keep telling myself that 1k is a lot of money.

Then I remind myself that I bought into the 500 dollar high roller in NJ on Sunday with 2 minutes left on registration like a degenerate.....

how much is a portion size of that stuff? like 5 oz before it gets too rich?

so like 40 servings or something. 28 dollars a serving

5 ounces of top flight Kobe is probably more than enough for someone in America. For the rest of the world, the amount is probably much less per serving--like an ounce or so. Don't Japanese usually serve Kobe in thin slices?

It's basically like you're losing $2500+ if you don't buy it.

Squash,

Sweet setup!

I was guessing SV with that perfect edge to edge evenness on a giant steak like that. Looks delicious.

I wasn't planning on having steak tonight, and normally I am morally opposed to rib eyes sans cap, but there was an emergency.

Nice marbling

You have one really long leg so off the shelf jeans don't work?

The more important bit is that I am salivating over the marbling. Some concern about the tiny bit of connective tissue that is non-foot related.

Sturdy sock is a good touch

I am standing contrapposto for maximum aesthetics. The forward foot is tucked under the bottom lip of the cabinets.

Socks are from the same place as the steaks.

Went Team Pan on this one, using my cast iron. Initial cooking in my tallow reserves on lowish heat, but that did not stop the development of a pretty good crust even before the final sear. I pulled at a little over 100 F internal and rested for a bit until halftime of the playoff game. I added a tbsp of butter to the pan for the final sear on all sides.

Result was juuuuuust a bit more cooked than I like, but it was still one of the best steaks I have ever eaten. Really crunchy crust, but everything else melted.
Highly recommend the wine we drank with this, too.

A little late on the Xmas roasts but here we go. Minimal pics on this because I was hosting for 16ish people this year and doing all the cooking. I went with 2 4 bone ribs. I know it’s “2 person per bone rule” but on holiday occasions people have so many apps and drinks you can lower the amount and still have leftovers.

I picked up my roasts on the 23rd.



Salt and ground pepper about noon on the 24. Take out of the fridge at 6am on Christmas morning. I then added a garlic, butter, rosemary, thyme over the top.

Only sliced pic I have as we had gone through much beer and whisky. Also the whole hunk left made delicious sandwiches.

THAT is good parenting, if I've ever seen it. Let the kid eat well-marbled steak that melts on the tongue now before it has put in the work for it and s/he will be ruined for life.

As a small aside, you cooked the steaks excellently. Bleu is the correct internal doneness for steak.
