Not exactly turning every statement into a question, but the upward inflections of random words near the end of every sentence is something I haven't heard before.
It seems like that Chef Wishes video just was overlooked. I knew that Kenji had an article on that same technique, and he pulled his between 95 and 105 because the salt crust retains so much heat. But it's still cooked at an extremely high temperature, in Kenji's case he wrapped the salt/tenderloin in a wet towel and cooked it directly in the coals
I don't know, I don't really get why you'd want to cook a tenderloin this way, but it seems to be a thing.
Because its really, REALLY delicious! I think people are looking at this through the wrong lens and shoehorning steak thread ideology onto it, its kinda like we're beef criticizing tartare for not being cooked enough.
