If you served this to me I would send it back to the kitchen so fast it would make your dumb head spin

Start with a better picture. Your framing skills are shit. I’d also recommend some better lighting.

The center of the steak looks maybe a bit undercooked, and I prefer my steaks rare to begin with. On the other hand, outside of where it may be just a bit too rare, it looks pretty overcooked and dry.
I'm guessing this was cooked on way too high of a heat setting and it doesn't look like you let the steak sit for 5 minutes after you were done cooking it so the center could cook just a bit more.
I'd still eat it in a fucking heartbeat, but you asked for criticism, so there you go.

Thank you very much! I was cooking it on high heat 30 seconds on both sides. Then i turned the heat on medium and started to baste it with garlic, butter and thyme. I didnt let it sit and instead removed it immediately.

I'd like to say plating doesn't matter, but I've participated in a few /ck/ challenges and people here care more about camera skills than actual cooking.

The centre looks a bit under done. The outside looks nice.
But /ck/ will argue about steaks to the end of time. When I go to a restaurant, I order my steak medium rare. (maybe twice per year because I'm poor).

What side dishes go with your steak? Any sauce?
I would recommend some green beans, and a crushed black peppercorn sauce with cream. Also some nice little potatoes boiled with fresh mint leaves.

But I would gladly eat the steak in your pic.

It's fine.

This. It makes all the difference.

>> No.11125419

did you used fresh or aged? it looks fresh. thats why it looks bad when undercooked. you should have picked a more reddish piece and cooler but longer cooking time. also. spices and usage of sausage, you need to use the freshness as a tool

How to cook these things at home?

Mine never has that charred looking exterior. Just goes brown like a hamburger.

what kind of pan and heat source are you using? cast iron. or iron is the key here.

>> No.11125488
