mmmmmm

bone and meat = the best meat

placebo. the thought of dying and problems associated with that will always be in the back of your mind affecting everything you do until you become a transhumanist and realize science is a weapon to use in the fight against death.

>>12862126
yes. one day. but till then , more meat

I cooked this bad boy in my cast iron pan, dry without oil added (apart from a little bit of flaxseed that was rubbed on the pan before storing it for some months of no usage), and now the pan is full of melted fat.

With a towel paper I rubbed all the fat inside the pan removing the excess and now the pan is all shiny and cool.

Should I leave it as is or should I rub two drops of flaxseed/sunflower seeds oil before storing it again?

>>12862208
I don't know anything about cooking, sorry

Add one drop of flaxseed. smooth it in. If you don't your next meal will be heavily influenced by tallow and taste like that meat you last put in there.

>>12865692
Thanks.

Since every time I cook a steak the pan smokes heavily and fill my kitchen with thick smoke I avoided rubbing even a single drop of oil to avoid burning it and coughing every time I cook a steak for 2/3 minutes.

Is it normal this level of smoke?

>>12865986
Ps. I normally rub sunflower seed oil but I also tried with grape seed and flaxseed too (this one smells like fish)

>>12862125
ribs without bone are a crime

How do I lighten the colour of stews? My stews always end up on the darker/grainy side instead of a delicious brown colour.

>>12862116

Going zero carb fixed my anxiety after the first two weeks of keto flu. Meat is 100% based and redpilled.

>>12862126
>this is your brain on grains.

Yikes dawg.

Fuck meat, eat veggies.

>>12867243
Heavy whipping cream. Plus it'll make the texture of the stew even better

Halp pls I don’t want lung cancer thx

>Is it normal this level of smoke?
We don't know your smoke density and volume per cubic inch but it will smoke more than the usual amount if it's overseasoned. There is the chance that you are being a bitch about the amount of smoke though, after all, it's a hot piece of metal and you're dropping meat on it (it's going to produce a decent amount of smoke regardless).

>>12867286
Same here, the vegans on this board are a menace.

It's happened as well to Bart Kay, Dr Shawn Baker and Tim noakes. Go against Veganism and you risk your career for telling the truth.

>>12868575
>over seasoned

Not it’s not, it also has a central “hole” that is also there with my other normal iron pan and idk if it’s a hole in the seasoning.

I just cook the steak dry since I use fat cuts like ribeye, skirt steak, roast beef and t bone, at the end of the cooking the pan is filled with grease which I throw away and clean with cooking paper and spreading a little, just a drop, flaxseed oil (I used this last time and I saw on the bottle that it can’t be used to cook since it’s biologic etc so I’ll never use it again) or even better refined corn seed oil with high smoke point.

Just a drop and that’s it, i can’t say if the smoke is the burning oil (I can smell oil when I pre heat the pan and starts to smoke) or if it’s the vaporised water/fat of the steak.

I’m scared because I have asthma and the smoke irritates my lungs...but I love meat and at least 1 times per month I have to sear a fine steak

I don't know shit about meat cuts and i'm afraid of asking the butcher because he looks mean and will think i'm a retard and i'm wasting his time

>>12870426
Step one is identifying the problem
Step two is doing something about it
I'm sure the butcher is not the only person you have problems with, so maybe it's time to stop being such a pussy and assert yourself.

>>12870469
Well every time i come in there's other people asking for cuts and he's coming back and forth cutting meat and bringing stuff out of the freezer and whatnot
It's not that i'm afraid, it's that i don't want to be the ignorant that comes in and starts asking dumb questions when the butcher has better stuf

>>12870480
Better stuff to do*

>>12870480

>better stuff to do
Like serve customers, you're a customer.
It's his job.

>>12870530
I'll try to come in at a time when there's less people then so i can catch him idle and it's less of a bother

>>12870426
He's there to sell you meat anon. Communicate with him to get what you want.

Shit sounds autistic dunno i feel cringe just thinking about doing it

There are tons of articles and books dedicated to meat cuts and their qualities + how you’re supposed to cook them according to their properties.
Start by looking there then go to a steak house (you can do the opposite order too) and see what they have on their menu, order something and experiment.

If you’re American you’re lucky because you have “coded” meat cuts that are the same from north to south unlike where I live where the same piece has different names according to the region I’m in or directly doesn’t exists unless you ask a butcher to cut that specific muscle for (you).

The main cuts you want are (everything beef):

>rib steaks (ribeye is bone cut, classic rib steak has it in, entrecôte)
>T-bone or Fiorentina (30% fillet , 70% sirloin)
>Porterhouse (like above but more fillet than sirloin)
>New York strip
>Strip steak
>Roast-beef
>(...)

I'm not from america either so this is the reason i have this conundrum. i'll look for the part of the animal the cuts come from instead of these regional names and ask the butcher for that, if he just goes "you mean [name]?" i'll just say yes and hope for the best

I don't live in Medellín, but i'll try with those names and see if the local butchers recognize them, thanks

On to another topic, which spices do you often use to season chicken, beef or pork?

Meat is a stimulant you mong.

>>12862125
>Have slow roasted beef ribs

Best meal I've ever had.

Friendly reminder that veganism literally causes mental illness.

i never said stop eating meat. just that it won't always push away your fear of death.

TL;DR

>>12871222
It’s the jews

You're consuming the loosh of an animal only a couple steps below you in the pillar.
Same logic behind doing sacrifices of animals instead of sacrifices of grain, which Cain was punished for.

>sacrifices of grain, which Cain was punished for.
I thought he was punished for sacrificing Abel. His grain offering was just treated indifferently.

>>12871374
owfuck you're right, my bad

transhumanists that fail to preserve the body are retarded.
