4th attempt and first time getting actual medium rare (I hope?). Walmart steak – $13. Dry brine for 30 hours then reverse sear. Tasted delicious.

  3. Damn that thing must have been free of moisture when u seared it that looks amazing wat did u do to get such a golden brown? I would kill to have that sear.

    Not bad, that banding is a little too much, but hey, you will get there

    That’s the best medium steak I ever seent

    It’s a great steak but more of a medium. Either way, I’d eat the shit out of that lol

    Reverse sear is by far my favorite method for thicker cuts

    This steak makes me horny. Bonus points for the cast iron sear work.

    That’s pretty phenomenal for a noob. Its great for everyone. Personally I prefer a real dark crust but golden brown is pretty amazing and honestly harder to achieve in my experience

    Make sure to get some tortilla and heat it on a separate pan till it’s hot but not crispy you want it still soft. Amazing with Walmart steak. Did you buy the rib eye?

    Best one I’ve seen yet. Perfect sear, perfectly cooked, perfect presentation. Good job buddy.

    Surprised only one person said something about the gray band. Not saying it ruins a steak but I’ve been here long enough to see it come up often so I’m a bit surprised

    Why Deep-Fry a Steak?
    Deep-frying is a form of dry-heat cooking, just like grilling and broiling. And dry-heat is indeed the appropriate technique for preparing a tender cut of beef like a rib-eye steak. Deep-frying cooks hot and fast, creating a flavorful brown crust on the exterior of the meat

    That looks better than all the ones I’ve done in the last year.

    like 50% of the posts here flat out fail to get any crusting at all, are afraid of the word dry brine so you basically dunked half the sub

    – well done with a photo shot
    – very well done with the crust
    – medium with medium rare
    – very well done with medium

    it’s an encyclopedic medium tbh.

    well done, mate.
