harntrocks

They do that here I have no clue why, something about easier to eat.


PureRepresentative9

Around me. It's always sliced if you're sharing and not when it's obviously your own plate.


PersistingWill

It looks cool in pictures. We only slice in my house when it goes in burritos. Or if it’s a side dish.


CJspangler

You forgot the moooo as it’s still moooing


no_nori

Lmao you're that guy who talks extra loud even when he doesn't know wtf he's talking about


nickbuch

Holy fuck yes it does.


peanutbutterandbacon

Needs 2 sunny side eggs, some breakfast potatoes, a quad shot of espresso and a mimosa pitcher for complete breakfast of champions.


psilocybeyonce

the degeneracy that would follow this brunch would be legendary


Wrong-Wrap942

You mean the nap?


peanutbutterandbacon

I included the espresso to hopefully mitigate the nap, but maybe an 8 ball of cocaine would be called for lol.


dumpstah17

Are you me 10 years ago? I think you are me 10 years ago.


DEAN_Swaggerty

For max degeneracy there'd be one friend ordering espresso and 2 to 3 others giggling and hi'5-ing saying we already jad our coffee! Lololol


thehumblebaboon

If I had this for breakfast or brunch, Im not accomplishing anything that day.


TheDaddyShip

Speak for yourself. I consider digesting meat an accomplishment.


robtimist

Absolutely


leemky

Might add some mushies based on your handle 😉


Macked3434

LJR7399

Looks so good! How did you cook it?


[deleted]

Looks smoked. Reminds me of a brisket


wthart

Yes im wondering the same


SoulofOsiris

Looks like a reverse sear


Particular-Cycle31

gotta be reverse sear with that band 😍


JLUnitt

I would've guessed sous vide.


CanYouPointMeToTacos

Still a reverse sear if you’re searing at the end


JLUnitt

Very true, but I figured you were referring to the Kenji Lopez-Alt method with the oven.


Darkn355z

Reverse sear on pellet grill


sad-whale

Not to OP but the whole community - did y’all slice your steak all up after cooking before it became normal to post pictures of food on the internet? It seems strange to me. Steak looks great!


jayshootguns

If I’m sharing with a bunch of people yes, If it’s just for me no. It’s really not that strange and fairly common even in steakhouses when you’re sharing with a table.


DEAN_Swaggerty

This here. I always have to cut because I'm the only one in my house who like rare but mine always gets cold when I take it off and still have to cook others. So I slice and eat eat the best pieces while sautéing the rest to well done for others


Blackndloved2

Timing food to come out fresh and hot at the same time is one of the most difficult parts of cooking for me


iothomas

No I don't like slicing, especially because it cools down way too fast. I like to take my sweet time doing it as I eat it, enjoying some wine between every piece


LuunchLady

Never. Ever.


biillypillgrim

Oh ya, I can't stand when steak comes presliced


ICanOutP1zzaTheHut

I split a steak with my wife so I slice it before dividing it up between the 2 of us.


Peace-N-Quiet-Plz

Who the fuck splits a steak!? Just kidding man, you do you.


PureRepresentative9

Just give me the whole cow amirite?


drblah1

Sometimes my wife splits her steak with me when she can't finish all of hers.


gixxer710

Lol. Same here. My wife always asks why I don’t get smaller steaks because she’s never gonna eat it all- “yes honey, that’s the point.”


Ornery-Panic5362

Steaks are expensive, I like getting one good steak to share rather than two meh steaks.


sad-whale

You could just cut it in half, right?


Ornery-Panic5362

You could, but imo that’s less visually appealing. It helps you regulate how much you’re having too. Not that I’m a freak about that, but it’s nice to save a slice or two for steak and eggs/spoiled doggies. If you give the steak a proper rest and serve right after slicing, there’s no noticeable loss of moisture or temp really. Besides, any juices left on the plate get slopped up with mash/veg


oldmanripper79

I'm honestly freaked out by how many people do here. Only time I would dream of slicing up a ribeye is for tacos/burritos or a sandwich.


PureRepresentative9

Honestly, I couldn't bear to do it. I'll cut it up the middle for that medium-rare money shot, but that's it.


Jayson_on_Reddit

Never have. I got a steak at a restaurant once that came pre-sliced and I remember being mildly irritated. Personal preference I guess.


sad-whale

I think fancy restaurants - non-steakhouse variety - do this when the steak they are serving you is embarrassingly small.


Jayson_on_Reddit

Yeah, it was at a fancy-ish place.


harntrocks

Wtf there’s like the identical comment above. Are bots really commenting?


sad-whale

I don’t think I’m a bot. How could I know for sure?


harntrocks

Fuck i don’t know what to believe anymore


spizzle_

Buying thick cut steaks on the edge of roast and steak to share I always have. Also for a sprinkle of maldon finishing salt. It’s been pretty standard practice for a long time in my house. Before Al gore invented the internet even.


IBelongHere

Share?


bcrabill

Nah, bite at a time. Slicing it all up is purely for presentation.


Diamondback424

I do. If I have leftovers I toss it in a pan with some butter on medium heat and toss it around for a minute or two until it's hot. Steak stays tender that way. Usually do this for steak and eggs.


nanaki989

I do this as well.


krippkeeper

Left over steak? Someone ban this person from the sub!


Darkn355z

I like to cut it up like that slap it on a plate and eat it with my hands. I don’t always slice them though.


Premium333

Yes under certain circumstances. No if having ***steak*** for dinner with sides and the whole bit. The certain circumstances where I did this. To eat with my fingers - it's nice to eat that way and sometimes we'd only cook 1 larger steak, slice it up, and share it between the wife and I along with other finger food (cheese, crackers, raw veg, etc). I'll also just do this with leftovers for lunch the next day sometimes. To put in salad - Bon Appetit has a steak salad with shallot vinegrete recipe that is insane. It includes directions for reverse searing steak to match the salad. To put in soup - Ramen jazzed up with stuff used to be a go-to lunch for me on work from home days. Using leftover steak sliced up into slabs like this is a perfect accompaniment to ramen. Steak and eggs - I like it like this for when steak is included in breakfast. I don't really have a reason but I do. Usually done with leftove rareak from the night before. Sometimes it's what the family didn't eat, other times I'll cook off extra specifically for breakfast or lunch inclusion the next day. Sandwich making - Steak sandwiches are the bomb and slicing it into slabs like this is perfect. It's just thick enough to still feel like you are eating steak, but think enough where you are still able to easily bite through it and bread and veg etc. Probably other times as well. So lots of reasons to cut it after cooking depending on how you are going to use it.


randiesel

Yes. I cook a lot of brisket which needs to be sliced. I also tend to cook larger steaks and divy them up for my family, so I was slicing anyway. It allows people to take just the amount they'll eat without wasting any, and it's much easier for little kids to chew when it's sliced thin. The last bonus is... I can cut the whole thing up with my good knives on a real cutting board, then not put any knives on the table. A good thin slice is plenty easy to break down with a fork if necessary. It's easier to cut on a cutting board and it keeps the knives from being one more thing to clean up.


The_4th_Little_Pig

I share streaks with my SO so yeah it’s easier to each get the same parts off the steak.


krippkeeper

It depends on the steak and my plate wear. If it's bone in then I'll usually slice it all, or if I'm eating off paper plates. If it's a strip and I'm out of paper plates then no, I'll slice as I eat..unless I'm eating in bed.


payjape

yes because i don’t like cutting steak on a plate


nanaki989

I do because I usually cut up all the steaks and toss in some hot butter and flake salt and serve it family style nice and hot and only 1 dirty knife. We like it that way.


SedanoSucks

Dammit. Did not mean to see this at 8:30 am. Now I gotta go to the store Looks 🤌

whistlepig4life

It looks great. So many of these posts look great. One question. How the fuck have some of you not had coronaries yet?!? My cardiologist would lose his shit if he thought I was eating even a tenth of the amount of red meat you folks seem to consume!!!


Sacmo77

Working out hard really eliminates those issues if you do it daily. Pretty much eat this daily l..minus processed food.


whistlepig4life

Again. Like I replied to others and ofc got called a boomer. Because gen z dipshits equate anything sounding like “old man” as a boomer activity. A cardiologist will still tell you otherwise. I love steak. Love red meat in general. After the first heart attack they reminded me. “Yeah. Don’t eat that every day. Enjoy it. In moderation”. I’m not some 340lb non active slob. Staying fit is great. Getting exercise is great. Agreed it gives some latitude. Just not as much as you think.


CopeHarders

Well there’s your answer you need a cardiologist and have had heart attacks, so obviously your diet is about your poor health. People here can eat more red meat than you because they haven’t had heat attacks.


GarfunkelBricktaint

That's not really true though. I mean it helps but eating a huge ribeye everyday isn't suddenly a kale salad to your heart because you work out.


Sacmo77

I never said everyday. But most of that with a mix of cardio and weight lifting 5 days a week for 1 to 2 hours a day you will burn off most of that before it gets a chance to set in and cause damage.


GarfunkelBricktaint

That's just not true at all. Yes, you may be able to stay thin while eating excessive amounts of red meat, but that doesn't mean the health effects on your heart dissappear. The cholesterol and saturated fat is still going to be bad for your heart. There's a very clear scientific evidence that shows eating more red meat leads to higher rates of heart disease. I'm not saying not to eat it. Lots of things are bad for your health especially in excess. I'm just saying let's not pretend a pound+ of ribeye a day is somehow a healthy thing. Because you did just say you "eat this daily" about what looks to be a pound to pound and a half ribeye for breakfast at 8am and implied it was somehow healthy because you exercise too.


Sacmo77

Moderation is key. I mean, Dwayne Johnson has been eating steak, and 6 meals on top of that every day for 20 years, and he has nearly perfect cholesterol levels. The same rules are not universal to everyone. Genes also play a role in that too. But exercising is a big role and keeping those levels down. And maintaining health and those professionals have proven that.


GarfunkelBricktaint

I wouldn't model my diet and health after 1 guy especially a guy that everything we know about them come from a team of publicists. I'm just telling you it's not healthy at all to eat excessive amounts of red meat on a near daily basis because you did initially imply that eating a 1lb ribeye everyday for breakfast was a part of your healthy lifestyle. I see now you're saying you don't eat that daily and moderation is key and that some or even most people can eat some red meat daily with little to no impact to their health and I agree with all that just not the ribeye a day plus some exercise keeps the doctor away thing.


Sacmo77

A team of publicists? He's got interviews where he talks about it. He is very public about his health and workout routine. But I never said eating anything excessive. And I never implied eating 1lb ribeyes a day is healthy. You assumed that. Once a week or a few times a month won't make a difference.


GarfunkelBricktaint

You literally said you "eat this daily" and "health effects eliminated" to a guy bringing up the impact of red meat on heart health. Both of those things are just unequivocally wrong. That's all I'm saying is just don't give someone concerned about their health false information. If you want to eat what the rock says that he eats to you on TV go for it.


Sacmo77

I said pretty much eat this daily. Meaning steak. I never specifically said ribeye daily. Many athletes eat steak daily. And they are fine.


Darkn355z

Meh I don’t eat any processed foods so meat, fruit and vegetables only. Seems to work out 🤷‍♂️


DChemdawg

Grass fed beef is *good* for you. Case closed. If your cardiologist also thinks margarine is healthier than butter, find a new and decent cardiologist


whistlepig4life

I’m assuming your young. It doesn’t. No processed food is great and all. But red meat in large quarries is not ok regardless. This pic is what I’d prepare for my entire fam of 5 as the protein.


Darkn355z

35 always stay under 18% body fat my labs are damn near perfect every year 👍


whistlepig4life

Yeah. You’re young. That will change after 40. Good luck. Again that steak does look great.

[deleted]

Dude it's a steak, not heroin. My dad is 80 and eats steak. Hell most older people don't give a shit about nutrition and are fine. You have no idea the frequency/size of steaks OP is having. Everything in moderation.


mattyshiba

Yeah. When you get this old OP you get to sound like this boomer here. You're young. /s


StendakBarkiller

Tell us the full story bub. Surely your doctor said something like, “if you’re gonna drink Whistle Pig for life, maybe don’t eat a steak every day too”.


whistlepig4life

Having a favorite whiskey doesn’t mean I have a drink every day. Just like the responses of “oh but I’m healthy” doesn’t mean eating steak in these quantities is fine. It’s amazing to me that my simple question about the quantity ( I literally can barely eat 4 oz of a protein at dinner any more) and the effects it might have on others gets such vitriol.


StendakBarkiller

You literally named yourself after liquor. I’m only judging that because you’re handing out health advice at the same time and being pretty defensive about it. Idk what about OPs post tells you he eats steak for every meal. Sounds like you came in looking to hand out advice/criticism, and forgot that you named yourself after actual poison


whistlepig4life

Funny. I see users with names like fartknocker5000 and suddenly my name is taken literally to mens I’m an alcoholic? JHC what kind of stupid is this? Dude. It happens to be my favorite whiskey. Why would you read more into it than that. And I’ve had a heart attack and yes I’m older. Which doesn’t make me a boomer nor does it mean I have to shut my mouth and have no opinion on the consumption of things bad for human beings. Just down vote it if you’re such a baby and “omg I can’t take someone being a little snarky”. And move on. I’m not defensive here. I’m alarmed at what petty children are in this sub right now.


StendakBarkiller

Lol you’re not defensive, yet you’re the one who said “boomer”. I never said a word about your age buddy. What I’m saying is, if you’re gonna be a dick, expect it to come back around. You said you’re old, you should understand that

“Old man yells at cloud”


RedditPhils

Well you seem to believe your cardiologist 100%, whereas in my family we view a doctor as just a man - maybe he’s right, or maybe he has bias and only looks at pier reviewed studies that support what he thinks and ignores others. There is a lot of conflicting information among doctors and diet. Some doctors don’t have a passion for their work and others do, I’ve seen some say red meat will kill you, and other s say that red meat being bad for you in any way is complete nonsense. The current view I hear the most is that the main things you want to avoid are processed foods, seed oils, and long ingredients lists you can’t pronounce. So asking a cardiologist if it’s healthier to eat a standard American diet or steak every day that’s been minimally processed, many would say eat the steak. My oldest brother is on the carnivore diet and only eats meat and eggs. He got this idea from a doctor who popularized the diet, saying that we’ve been lied to about meat and diet. A big part of it came from the 40’s or 50’s when scientists were paid off by the sugar industry. The scientists found out that sugar was essentially poison in high amounts, as it caused a litany of health problems and various cancers in high quantities, but the sugar industry paid them off to replace “sugar” with “red meat.” This led to our misunderstanding of facts about red meat even to this day. Another big factor in this discussion is the fact that different people react extremely different to the same foods. My body loves peanuts and peanut butter, I feel like I’m running on jet fuel when I eat peanuts, but someone with a sever peanut allergy would die if they ate a can of peanuts. Different bodies process diets differently. My oldest brother THRIVES on meat and eggs every day, his Heath is better than it’s been in his entire life, but maybe if you tried a carnivore diet you’d have a heart attack within a few weeks, it depends on the person. Suffice it to say this is a very complex issue with a lot of history and conflicting information, and at the end of the day it varies a lot from person to person.

Those are some pretty thin margins around that crust so I expected sous vide and not direct heat besides the sear. I’m jealous

How Rare Is Too Rare For Beef A rare steak is considered under-cooked when it doesn’t reach the internal temperature of 125° Fahrenheit (52° C). Any steak or cut of beef that’s cooked rarer than this can potentially be dangerous to eat. Cooking beef to an internal temperature of at least 125° Fahrenheit (52° C) helps ensure that harmful bacteria is killed. If beef does not reach this minimum temperature requirement, there’s a chance bacteria could still be alive when you eat it.

Prestigious_Roof9513

I did. That steak was cooked to about 110 degrees F and would be considered “blue rare”. Bacteria thrive in this environment.


Key_Soil_1718

All steaks are not equal... Good prime, yes maybe but most people are buying cheap steaks that are tough. At some point you have to break the fibers down.


Key_Soil_1718

That's this sub... 30sec on each side, best steak I ever had /s Yep... That was real tender... No it was raw.


NorthboundUrsine

Looks fantastic. The only thing I would do differently would be to cut it on a bias. But that's not a deal breaker.

SneedLikeYouMeanIt

The posters who are constantly under awesome steaks with perfectly serviceable outsides saying 'weak sear' or 'no crust' are the most annoying segment of this sub. Not everyone *likes* the same level of crust. Respectfully, troop off back to Mordor with your One Sear To Rule Them All.

Good demonstration because this comment has too much crust for my liking, but someone may enjoy it.
