May 1, 20196 yr Long weekend at a Galveston Bay rental. Seafood galore with a little turf thrown in. Limited with what I had to work with, but loved the results.
May 1, 20196 yr They are called Brazi bites. Brazilian bread you can buy at Kroger, maybe HEB if they are open. Cheesy little bread balls, same shit they have in Brazilian steak houses. Buy some and thank me laterPao de queijo

May 23, 20196 yr Author Never understood the slicing of the steak when plating. Is there a reason for this that I’m just too dumb to know about? Every steak I’ve ever ordered at a restaurant is not pre-sliced and I never do that when I make steak. What am I missing?

May 27, 20196 yr Ribeye, pork chops and sirloin, cut into chunks so everybody can have a bit of each. Had to do some QC on that missing bit sirloin to see how it handled 6 hours of sous vide at 130 before a quick blast on the grill.

June 2, 20196 yr Author Popular Post Reverse sear on this strip last night. I like the grill much better (not because the result is better, just because I like being outside cooking on a grill), but when forced indoors, I'm convinced this is the only way to do it. I think I've also come around to the fact that the strip is the way to go. Flavor of a ribeye...texture of a filet. End result... Side was some cheesy asparagus/broccolini concoction I whipped up... Edited June 2, 20196 yr by Landomatic
June 2, 20196 yr Strip is definitely my go-to. I don’t buy anything else unless there is a sale or I decide that I want to cook a big tomahawk.
June 3, 20196 yr Grass fed strip. Pretty lean. Salt for a day. Sous vide at 125. Sear on french pan. Drink with red wine.

June 9, 20196 yr tried the reverse sear-my version of it today, on a NY strip. Awesome! Whoever invented that shit should be a millionaire. My little adjustment was that my frying pan wasn't hot enough when the steak hit the pan, so I turned the steak twice to get that first side an additional 30 seconds. Was the best steak I have ever cooked at home, and not close. Pink but plenty hot. The steak stayed hot the entire time I ate, which is not always the case. Most of the time I cooked a steak before I could get it to medium rare but it would be cold by the time I was halfway done. Got me started thinking, would that technique work on a Chuck Roast? I really don't see any pitfalls. I will give it a shot, and instead of one minute on high for the sear, I think I will try 2 minutes each side. I don't have a thermometer, so I played it by feel today for the strip. My feel is pretty good, having worked as manager of Luby's cafeteria for 8.5 years a lifetime ago. I just had a flashback to Luby's. The best steak I ever cooked I cooked at Luby's. Two episodes really. One time there was a ribeye in the cooler that looked like it was about to go bad, so I drenched it with melted butter, and then cooked it. I put a little pan on top of the steak while it was on the grill. I wanted to know if that technique worked so I cooked a 2nd ribeye for my dinner, same method. Melted in my mouth good. Later I would learn that the famous steak place in Austin-OMG I can't think of the name- cooked their steaks at 500 and soaked with butter. Ruth's Chris- there it is. The other Luby's flashback was this: we were trying to get rid of some ribeye's one Saturday night in Sherman, so we cooked them and put them on the counter. Price was very steep for your typical Sherman resident, and we relied upon the police to help us with high dollar items such as that. (Police got 50% off, and some locations would give food free if policeman entered location during the last half hour-can't remember if it was free in Sherman or not) I guess the police didn't show up that night, so my boss who was absolutely exceptional in creativity, decided we could try to sell the 3 remaining ribeyes the next day, but the rule at Luby's was you have to change the form of the meat. So, we had Chicken Fried Ribeye. I was the butcher that Sunday morning, so I put the three leftover ribeyes through the tenderizer a couple or three times and the fry cook did the usual- flour-batter-flour-batter-cracker crumbs. They came out beautifully, but only two sold. I took the plunge again- I was such a good food taster- and ate the last Chicken Fried Ribeye--ummmm good! I still occasionally have Luby's dreams/nightmares, but this was a pretty good series of flashbacks. I guess when you work a job 14-15 hours a day, it does something to you. I still know the ingredients for mayo.: SESOVDM - salt eggs sugar oil vinegar dry mustard. Whenever I completely forget that I guess I will be ready for the alzheimer's unit. The wife occasionally gives me a hard time about remembering stuff. I should call that manager in Sherman and tell him this story. Last time I checked property tax appraisal records he still lived in Sherman. Great man. Like a lot of great Luby's men, he got screwed, starting with that idiot CEO from the clothing business, Barry something- Parker I think. 100% jackass, didn't know what making food entailed. Wow! I'm tripping.
