Nice

>>13239617
Is this a pasta? Tell me you wouldn't.

>>13239659
No why would it be pasta?

>>13239617
Please cook steak in the toaster. Post results

>>13239678
That would take a while.

>>13239673
Browning very nicely

>>13239722
Almost done

meat is gross!

>>13239722
why do some people sear steaks without oil sometimes? the sear is always 10x better when I dump in a shit ton like this.

>>13239729
It's about ... thyme!

>>13239729

>what kind of pan?

>how high was the burner during the cooking?

>>13239759
Dis gunna be good. I'll be back when I'm done eating.

>>13239776
looks fucking good

Meat eaters are cringe. Steak eaters are the worst, obsessed with the most basic cuts around

>>13239776
Incase anyone is wondering what the inside looks like

>>13239819
>barely medium
yikes

>>13239819
Looks juicy enough to not need any sauce

>>13239776
>>13239819
Looks dang good anon!

>>13239824
Steak should be cooked to medium-rare.

>>13239826
Sauces are sacrilege. Just basted in the butter and oil it was cooked in plus a little bit more on the potatoes. More than flavorful. Time for an after dinner drink.

>>13239819
Fantastic. I can smell it from here.

>>13239722
Wow, you basically boiled it in butter.
Use less butter at first to sear, then add more to baste with herbs.
Still looks good, but could have been great.

>>13239850
Wrong. Seared with oil then finished in butter thyme and garlic. Using butter to sear would just result in burnt butter. You have to use a much higher temp oil. Also fuck you the sear was great. It's like you posted this without even paying attention to my posts.

>>13239850
god you're so fucking stupid

>>13239865
You're right about oil, but then I don't drown my steak in butter afterward.
I mean, overall, you boiled steak in a pan, for a cut of meat that is meant to be cooked on open flame. And it just has a weak sear, so take your lumps. You posted it, and that shot of you boiling it in butter.

>>13239909
This guy >>13239876 is right, you're fucking stupid.

>>13239848
Why are steak purists so embarrassing

>>13239923
Go eat some ketchup.

>>13239796

>>13239796

>>13239617
I hate jadzia, such a dumb useless bitch

>>13239918
You just made a steak with light-brown searing in a pan. You're not cool because that's how Ramsey does it, and you're not cool for boiling it in butter. It's not the best way to cook steak and your steak is mediocre because of it, so just stop.
You didn't even get a good pan sear. It seared up like it was below Choice. It's almost gray tbqh.
Get a grip and stop taking authority from cooking shows. Use flames or very hot radiant heat. Pan is second tier my friend.

>>13239617
>DS9
>tasty steak
My nigga

>>13239945
Ya that sear in this pic >>13239776
is fucking aweful, almost grey. Stop being an obtuse twat. Also if you think Ramsay invented basting a steak in butter, thyme and garlic you're a bigger retard than i already think you are.

>>13239930
I don't eat ketchup, stop being a try hard it's embarrassing

>>13240000
Speaking for myself, Mighty Digits, I don't think Ramsey invented anything. I think he popularized it. And he enabled people to believe that steak-in-a-pan is something to brag about.
This is poverty-tier method and it shouldn't be encouraged. Steak-in-a-pan is what you do with Choice sirloin for breakfast, because it's fast and easy.

>>13239773
Can you answer me OP please?

>>13240020
Ever heard the saying about opinions and how everyone has one?

>>13240021
Ceramic pan
Canola oil for initial sear then regular butter to baste
High heat for initial sear then off the heat entirely to let the oil cool down then back over medium heat when the butter gets added.

>>13239732
But another man's shit on your dick isn't!

>>13239735
I don't know. Most people i know like to talk shit about pan cooking a steak and how they should only be cooked on the grill but then when I go to their house for steak it's always fucking trash that's cooked unevenly. It's almost like they're repeating a meme or something. There is a reason most restaurants prepare their steaks in a pan or on a griddle. The heat is even and easily controlled and the walls of the pan allow for the juices to collect so it can be basted or the fond can be used to make a pan sauce. Using a grill has virtually zero benefits.

>>13239617
what episode is this, OP?

>>13239945
>>13239909
rate my sear bro. no weak shit like the faggot in the OP.

>>13240100
It was the one where worf and jadzia go to riza but I skipped to the next one because i didn't want to spend 45 minutes listening to their relatíonship problems.

>>13240090
>like to talk shit about pan cooking a steak and how they should only be cooked on the grill
The guy that is having a meltdown above is the first time I see someone complaining about cooking a steak in a pan. Most of the time they complain when it's not cooked in cast iron.

>>13239759
AHEM, FUCK Q.
TNG is best Trek, also steak looks good m8.

>>13240173
TNG might have been more iconic but it's definitely not better than DS9

>>13240173
Q is a piece of shit, but Voyager is the best. I've also never seen more than a few episodes of any other Star Trek series. Where should I start to get into other Star Trek stuff?

>>13240126
I have a cast iron pan but I typically just use my ceramics. The cast iron just doesn't distribute heat evenly enough for my taste and the time it takes to come up to temp is annoying. These pans I have are at the end of their life and I'll be upgrading to some nice stainless cookware soon. Maybe if a good black Friday sale comes around.

>>13240197
>Voyager is the best.
My brain started to stroke out
>I've also never seen more than a few episodes of any other Star Trek series.
Stroke averted, now it makes sense. Voyager was trash. Start with TNG as training wheels then move to the grown up's star trek which is DS9.

>>13240090
That's because most people have no actual idea how to cook on a grill. They think you hold it over direct heat like a caveman. To be fair I used to think like that, until I discovered an amazing invention known as a FUCKING LID that turns my grill into a smoke flavored oven and got myself a wireless meat thermometer. Direct heat is only for searing the outside.

>>13240197
Star trek is just zog brainwashing in sci fi form

>>13240257
And ds9 was def the best btw

>>13239617
>butter
>not ghee

Never gonna make it

>>13240053
Thank you

>>13240238
I'm joking as I realize that Voyager is not the best and I would probably not like it so much if it was not the only one I've watched and I grew very attached to it in my teens after my mom died as a cope watching it at 2am on spike TV and 4pm after school. But I just haven't been able to get hooked on any other series. The attachment is deep, and I've probably seen every episode upwards of a thousand times. Not an exaggeration. It was the only thing I watched for years every day to comfort myself and the only way I could sleep was to have it playing in the background. I want to get into other series but never get interested. The TNG episodes I've seen were good enough but didn't interest me enough to keep watching.

>>13240090
>Most people i know like to talk shit about pan cooking a steak and how they should only be cooked on the grill
Those are what we call "the cooking retarded" or sometimes "grilling morons."

>>13240293
Voyager was literally the worst, it’s like you were born without taste buds

>>13240311
It's the only thing that could get me to sleep for more than an hour every night after my mom died REEEEEEE

>>13240311
this. voyager is like a soulless regurgitation of TNG with 10x obnoxious & most times off character cast. i want to take neelix's hand and shove it in a vitamix blender

>>13240342
yeah because its so boring

>>13240311
Voyager was better than Enterprise.

>>13240358
I didn’t watch enough of it to develop strong feelings honestly, but star trek has always been on the border of good sci fi and with voyager they gave up everything potentially interesting about it for a struggle with scarcity.

>>13240358
NELIX IS LOVE. FUCK YOU ALL. (jennifer lien is pretty nasty these days though)

>>13240359
More like I knew the fucking script to every show at that point and could drift off listening to it. But having gone years without watching it, now watching it is a different story. The forced diversity cast is pretty ridiculous and female captain thing is cringe. I will never stop loving it though. It still makes me feel good to rewatch an old episode, especially Someone To Watch Over Me.

>>13240403
>More like I knew the fucking script to every show at that point and could drift off listening to it.
i used to do this to the south park episode where cartman tries to exterminate the jews.

>>13240501
Lol which one? I know where he tries to exterminate gingers and he dresses up as hitler quite a bit.

>>13239617
>>13239819
That cut looks terrible. At least you knew well enough to baste with butter in garlic and thyme and let it rest.

>>13240523
it's the one where stan wants his money back from mel gibson because he hated the passion of the christ.

>>13240557
Kek. It's too bad Matt and Trey have become enormous faggots.

>>13239617
Turn off that whore and put Ezri on.

>>13240840
ezri was annoying and brought nothing to the show.at least jadzia was baddas who could fight, drink, gamble and fuck like an animal.

>>13240867

>>13240871
the only people that like ezri are beta cucks that found a character that even they could feel dominant over.

>>13239930
>sauce means shit like A1 or ketchup
you're a moron.

>>13239776
I’m a little disappointed by the sides, I mean it’s good, but for me it’s always a loaded baked potato, sautéed onions & mushrooms and some tenderstem broccoli.

The steak looks great though.

>>13239819
I don’t see any salt and pepper

>>13239865
You want the butter to brown.

>>13239617
>No fancy bullshit
>Garlic
Ya dumb brat, that's already too much going on, unironically.

>>13239776
Where is the pan SAUCE?!?!

>>13240881
Jadzia was ruined by the dumb basic bitch who played her

>>13242059
so basically it's disappointing because OP didn't read your mind and make the sides that you would have mad. congrats this is the most narcissistic post i've seen on this board.

>>13239776
>pees

>>13239617
Underwhelming, but solid effort. Especially considering the ramen eaters on this shitty board.

>>13242096

>>13239944
Dax is male. Arguably he was one of the early stages of the homo/tranny agenda given the age of DS9.

>>13239729
>>13239740
am I the only one who thinks thyme is overrated to use when cooking a steak?

>>13239617
>butter
Use tallow, or lard please.

>>13242421
Dax is a symbiant which has no gender. The host determines the gender.

>>13242454
I don't use it wverytime just like i don't use a butter baste every time. I mix it up and use Montreal seasoning sometimes and everyonce in a while i make a knockoff Outback Steakhouse seasoning which I love. If it's a really good steak just salt and pepper.

>>13242618
No thanks, butter tastes better.

>>13239850
>boiled it in butter
bro that's called frying

>>13243601
>No thanks, butter tastes better.
I guess you don't like beef.

>>13239735
I rub oil on the steak rather than put it in the pan. I doubt it actually affects anything as long as you're getting a proper sear.

>>13239617
I was at the thrift store the other day and they had mugs for $0.99

>>13240105
nice brisket

>>13243770
The layer of hot oil makes fuller contact with the steak so you get a faster and more even sear. Also makes it crispier. There’s definitly a lot of benefits for a thin layer of oil in your skillet.

>>13242125
Nah, those are pretty common and popular steak sides in the US when going to steakhouses. I mean mashed potato is as well, but frozen pees? No.

>>13243884
Go make your own thread and make the sides you would want you useless twat.

Let's make some grilled cheese and soup.

>>13244880
Mixing in some heavy cream and cayenne pepper into the tomato soup.

>>13244910

>>13244913
Fucking gorgeous

>>13244926
Done

>>13244964
>cut on the diag
you were so close
clear choice was strips to dip in the soup

>>13245047
strips lose heat too quickly.

>>13242454
I think it diminishes a good steak. I like it in braised dishes or soups but I don't want it corrupting a good steak.

>>13244964
>>13245047
>>13245054

as men, is our primary purpose to argue about the most banal of things?

fuckin based

>>13245088
>as men, is our primary purpose to argue about the most banal of things?
as men? no. it's just this board.

>>13245094

i work with a bunch of women and they were all complaining about how all men do is argue about things.. i don't really see the problem.

>>13244964
waiting :-D

>>13245105
arguing is one thing but this board is just filled with contrarians. if use butter someone bitches i didn't use lard. if i use lard someone bitches i didn't use butter. i cut diagonal then someone complains i didn't cut strips. if i cut strips someone complains i didn't cut diagonal. people here are just ridiculous assholes who make up things to find fault with. it's been this way as long as i can remember.

>>13245119
for what?

>>13245124

is cereal a soup?

is a hotdog a sandwich?

>**spoiler alert** yes and yes **spoiler alert**

>>13244964
Congratulations, you now cook like a 9 year old.
>>13244926
There is literally no way to fuck this up.
Jeezus this thread, fucking cooklets
>steak-in-a-pan
baka

>>13245439

Steak in a pan is objectively based.. wood fire grill is second, all other grilling is shit. Broiling is shit (unless its an industrial broiler)
