A reverse sear is when you buy pre-seared stake and remove it, idiot.

>putting butter on steak

Can someone explain this to me? I think it's fucking disgusting

>>9755410
>butter biscuit
>butter on spinach
>butter on steak
Can I get your best butter sketti recipe please?

>>9755467
>all jokes are now called bait
I want off of this timeline.

>>9755467
that's exactly what my steaks look like on the inside when I do the entire thing in a hot pan.

>>9755410
Looks really good. Gonna need a cross section of the st8k though m8.

>>9755471
Use better quality butter. If that doesn't work, get gud because butter is delicious and good for you. Butter, salt, pepper is all you need for a great steak.

>>9755459
Surprisingly easy. Sautee half an onion med heat in butter, add garlic and cream cheese. Take it off heat, add heavy cream, grated sharp cheddar and parmesan. When everything is incorporated, fold in a cooked/drained package of frozen spinach. It was fucking delicious.

>>9755502
I got chu senpai. The other two steaks were closer to mid rare.

This makes less sense than butter on steak

>>9755603
t. 1960's scienshit

>>9755553
What a waste of good steak, tbqh.

>>9755553
Nice. So long as it's not dry it's a-ok in my book. Great job considering you're new. Keep it up yo.

>>9755603
What do you recommend then?

>>9755620
Waste is a stretch; I only order rare/blue steaks when I eat out but this steak was not bad.

>>9755621
Thanks senpai. It turned out better than I expected.

>>9755645
this isn't even medium rare though, that's medium well.

Read the text sperg.

>>9755623
Not putting a god damn lob of butter on a perfectly good steak

Steak should be pure and virgin once it's been cooked, not drowned in sauces/oils/seasoning

>>9755774
Lol what a fag. Butter on steak is fucking amazing

Hope you added some ketchup

>>9755848
Whatever fatty, enjoy dying before you hit 30.

>>9755503
only fags drown their steak in butter. a little bit of herb butter is nice once in a while, but melting chunks on it is retarded

>>9755603
>fat is bad for you

>>9755909
Just because something isn't healthy doesn't mean it's bad for you. Saying butter is "good" for you is as dumb as claiming it's "bad" for you.

>>9755774
What should I put on the steak leftovers sammich? Guide me senpai.

>>9756069
Something along the lines of pic related

I'm getting hungry

>>9755410
Steak cooked nicely, however it looks too wet since you buttered the steak.
3/10

Creamed spinach, nice texture, portion is half the size of the steak, decent amount of spinach
6/10

>Box mix biscuits with steak meal
0/10

Roasted mushrooms
Good choice
10/10

Entire meal...
6/10

Could have at least made a side of steamed vegies for nutrition and some sauce for the steak.

Fucking 4/10 flyover bullshit.

>>9755774
I agree that butter should not be put on steak nor that steak should be drowned in sauces and seasonings but a nice sauce like Diane is amazing with steak.

>>9756096
Day old baguette (toasted)
Stilton
Carmilised onion
Mayo+ grain mustard
Greens of some sort
Radish

Gone be gud

>>9755774
shut the fuck up you fucking faggot
stop ruining steak with your HURRRR NOTHING BUT SALT AND PEPPER bullshit

>>9756185

What's your favorite amount of doneness?

>>9756119
What type of sauce do you recommend? My GF makes peppercorn steak w/ cream sauce, it's pretty good but not what I think of when I want a steak.

>>9756195

>>9756196
Do you mean steak au poivre?

>>9756206
No cognac but yes, it's similar.

>>9756185
>implying i believe in salt & pepper autism

>>9755920
>just because fat is an essential nutrient necessary to eat without dying doesn't mean it's good for you XDDDD

>>9755920
>Just because something isn't healthy doesn't mean it's bad for you.
Yes, it does. It literally means that by fucking definition. The only valid argument is the subjective context at which the statement is true and at which it is false--as when it is given a specific conditional context the statement can be correct or incorrect. The biggest variables for that are usually amount imbibed, time frame, and the specific human's body in question (Most dairy wouldn't be considered healthy for you if it causes you to have diarrhea and an hour of intense gastrointestinal cramps).
However, when you make the statement without the conditional clauses, you instead make a sweeping statement that implies the very item is inherently unhealthy--similar in consistency to arsenic being unhealthy (consistency, not severity), which is unequivocally false.

You are a retard repeating hearsay that you never bothered to properly research.

>>9756196
I usually have Diane or Mushroom sauce but Peppercorn or cream sauce works just as well.
The sauce is usually a taste preference for the individual.

11 is the cutest, 12 is the hottest, 16 is barely legal

And then suddenly women are shit until they reach milf status for mummy sex lessons

>>9755905
You just need a little to baste, anything else is excessive.

>oh god just found out there was some butter in my food
>better go to the hospital, just in case

>>9755410
Pretty good OP. That steak would get you into the bone zone.

>>9756195
Why the braces? Her teeth looked fine.

>>9758147
I agree if you are a new cook don't stop! You have some talent and should use it.

>>9755410
I'd be happy to eat that

>>9756286
sodium is also essential to humans but if you roll up to your doctor and tell them you down 10g of salt a day they're probably gonna make you sit down for a talk

>>9758168
sometimes to prevent them from going to look not fine

>>9755553
>frozen spinach
>boxed biscuit mix

if you're going to phone it in on the sides then don't make them.

>>9758218
>they're probably gonna make you sit down for a talk
>listening to anything a (((medfag))) pirate tells you

Go ahead, I guess, if you like funding other peoples yachts and condos.

>>9755666
That is not medium-well. It is a medium

>>9755909
>>9756286
Fat isn't the issue, cholesterol is.

>>9758772
Oh?

>>9758218
Excessive sodium in the diet is associated with higher blood pressure. Elevated blood pressure from salt consumption has no effect on heart disease, however lower salt intake does reduce blood pressure! Insufficient sodium is associated with high triglycerides, obesity, and type 2 diabetes. We've been playing this game with the saturated fats and dietary cholesterol for a long time. I'm gonna let you in on a little secret: over-consumption of refined sugar is killing people. Salt is fine. Saturated fat is fine. Cholesterol is fine. Sugar is poison.

>>9758147
Thanks Senpai, did receive post meal BJ from the misses.

>>9758171
That's really encouraging, thanks. I've started cooking to deal with stress/decompress after work, so far seems to be helping.

>>9758694
Thank you. Yes, a little more done than I prefer but still enjoyed the meal.

>/ck/ shitting on butter on steak
is basting the steak with garlic butter while it is in the pan okay?

>>9759413
Just do what you think tastes good, steak autists are the fucking worst.

>>9755553
Ffs that is almost well done. I hope you like eating leather fuckboy

butter is only bad for you if you're already a lazy fuck not doing shit or working out. fat = energy

>>9758358
what an obnoxious cunt you must be

>>9755410
looks gr8

Do you have a pet goose?
