Bought some Ribeye steak today.🐮

[2yearswastedlife]

Been awhile since my last steak. Decided to stock up some premium Ribeye. (Tajima Wagyu MB 4/5.)


Marinate with generous amount of salt and crush black pepper corn. Place it on a plate, let it sit in the refrigerator uncovered to soak up any excess moisture for 12 to 24 hours. This method gives you really nice crust since surface of the meat is dry.

Cooking method, pan sear, baste in butter with lots of garlic & thyme. (Make sure the steak is at room temp before cooking)

Tips - Add some oil to the butter to prevent burning & never throw away nicely caramelised garlic, pair it with the steak, tats all you need to enjoy a good steak.

Got it from a friend. I dun keep for more than 6 months. In fact it can stay fresh for a year but must be vacuum sealed to prevent freezer burn and retain freshness.

Check with butchery nearby, it all depends.

Actually I tried experimenting before vacuum sealed beef left in freezer for 1-2 months taste better than those fresh beef.
You do sous vide or normal pan seared

Nice! Can consider wet aging but make sure you get the right temp.

Depends on thickness. If it's 1 inch thick, perfectly fine with just pan sear. Am quite lazy to use oven method, therefore only using pan.

Use airfry 180 at 10min

Instead of freezer, store it in the chiller section.

Looks Solid...!

Won't the meat spoil? How long do U age it and what's the temp on the chiller? I guess the blood and the water will sweat out of the meat

Do some research or watch YouTube for better understanding. I didn't go into it.

Those intending to pan sear steak that's around 1 & half inches, you can try this method. I'll be testing it on the steak that's marinated yest.

cooking sexpert spotted. i see some ppl will half sear after that put insai oven. is it really necessary?

For a steak this thick it will get the whole thing to desired doneness internally. The initial sear makes the crust and the oven gently cooks it through. It is how we do indirect cooking without a big bbq.

Imho, this grade of beef is far better than grass or grain fed in terms of flavour and texture. Next on the list is dry aged.

Agree. It is a nice balance between uber fatty wagyu and leaner but tastier breeds.

In one word, Guga.
