    First picture is absolutely raw.

    Second looks like good sear.

    Third looks like you had too high of heat to get that sear or didn’t flip it enough.

    For this cut of ribeye, I recommend tying it up before cooking.

    So this is still a ribeye, but it’s on the end with the smaller eye and an extra muscle.

    Like you can see, the “extra fat seams” means that the steak may end up splitting apart. Even with the extra string, it might still split, but it shouldn’t split so bad.

    The picture of it cooked just looks like bad lighting. The steak itself looks pretty close to medium, which is what I like on cuts like ribeye. More rare and the fat is chewy. I like it when it’s all soft and buttery. Looks pretty good imo

  4. I’m not that picky when it comes to my steak. Med rare to med well I can demolish just fine.

    Looks good to me. I like my ribeye more towards medium with a heavy crust, even slightly burnt.

    When I want rare meat I buy filet or even sirloin.

    Looks fine, not as rare as I’d like, but how was the taste?

    I think it looks great, you got the fat rendered and it’s juicy, i don’t see gray banding

    It looked very good, the sear looks on point. That fat is rendered, and it has a good even color. I must ask did you dry brine it? The texture of the surface looks similiar too when I dry brine for a day.

    That’s how I like a ribeye. A little bit more cooked so the fat melts
    My wife would say it’s overdone but u think it’s close to perfect

    I have purposefully not read comments before writing this.

    Honestly this is the type of result ive been striving for and haven’t quite gotten. Really good looking sear and to me, perfect inside temp. I like warm/hot pink and not red and what you’ve done is perfect.

    And that’s the thing, if you thought it was fucking good, then you’re spot on. Truly, truly, to each their own.

    As others said, tying up is probably the only critique we can offer, and even that is more of a presentation/aesthetic thing.

    The cook is nice and even. The sear is tremendous.

    Chapeau.

    Overcooked than my ideal. But I would still eat it without complaining. That outside color is exactly what I want in life

    Brutally roast?

    I really can’t. I know in my ideal world, I’d want the inside to be a little more rare. Outside, you cooked it perfectly.

    So if you want a brutally honest roast, go fuck yourself and your amazing cooking skills, ya sack of shit! Come over to my place and cook me dinner, you fucking ho!

    Brutally honest? A little over done. You have a promising future!

  15. long-civility

    Little over for me, but I’m a rare guy, so most would probably call this good.

  16. WANGblizzard

    I mean jesus, look at how well rendered that is, maybe a HAIR overdone? But it’s still pink in the middle. I wouldn’t regret dropping 50 on that bad boy. Incredible work.

  17. Uncle_Burney

    Maybe a little over, but high marks all the same

  18. GreatProfessional622

    Cooked just right for that size and type of cut. Little bit of tenderizing would have done it some justice.
    Unlike most, wouldn’t mind it being cooked a little more but again, for that size cut.. not complaining

  19. Klutzy_Tradition_983

    You cooked it almost perfectly, that seam of fat was unfortunate because it almost split into thirds when the fat rendered.

    8 out of 10.

    Good crust, but could use improvement. All in all, good looking steak 👌

  21. RamNot2Shabby

    Cooked a tiny bit too long but that’s a forgiving cut, and marbled very well so I’m sure it was as delicious as it looks

  22. Redgecko88

    Looks like you tried the basting butter technique. It’s doesn’t work like tick tok.
