I'm not a fan of Brussels sprouts, but I'd chow down that steak. I note the cross hatched grill marks: our man Clint would be proud.

The local Vons had the deal of the century on the last 2 packs of NY Strips from the weekend. I wanted to get redemption at the failed Steak-chicken-pork so here's the ole college try. First the deal:



Almost a lb of NY strip for less than $4!

I wasn't going to finish this monster in one sitting so I cut it in half. Here's how the second one came out this morning. Still a little weak on the sear. I think the steak was a little too wet and a little greyband there but after being a mostly med-well steak eater I think I've converted with the assistance of this thread into the territory where steak is supposed to be eaten.

Still needs work but damn this was good.

foatie - The cooking procedure probably was fine, but the steak doesn't look appetizing in the pics. Flash and pic quality might be a factor. I wonder if the fact that the steak wasn't fresh played a part in the abnormal texture and color. I also wouldn't be surprised if it tasted very good.

It tasted great, but it seems like it may have been frozen at some point due to the inconsistent coloring. For 3.75 i was willing to take the gamble.

is that in the coupon book? i saw the prime strip but no mention of the $25 off - isn't that usually on the actual price tag hanging above the meat?

Just a sign at my Costco above the cooler. Was tempted to buy another one today but held off and grabbed some prime ribeye cap steaks instead.












Sous vide for 1 hour at 126.5 then seared in cast iron with grapeseed oil and butter for ~1 min per side. Sorry for the crappy lighting in the pic with the lobster tails.

Not in the coupon book, the deal was valid 10/28 - 11/3. Yes just a sign above the meat cooler.

Nice. Where did you grab that meat from? And... What 'instruments' did you lack? What did you season it with?

Either way, looks good.

Meat was from the local grocery store that has 28 day dry aged USDA prime, it was $18/lb (CAD), bargain imo and that's the regular price.

Didn't have my thermoter or bbq, so was kind of guessing, it was also dark out which didn't help.

Meat was seasoned with salt and pepper, except for this particular one which had *Keg seasoning* that my dad likes from the local mediocre steakhouse.

Baby steps. I think I'll splurge well into the double digits this Saturday on my personal steak for my UFC 205 party.
