Codename: Jackass Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 I tried the reverse sear as endorsed by hundreds of no-name bloggers across the world. I had a nice New York strip, 2/3 pound, nice marbling, a good cut all around, and I fucked it all up. I overestimated its size and left it in the oven about seven or eight minutes too long, and by then it had reached an internal temperature of 145, carryover probably took it up to 150 while it rested. Still tasted fine for a medium well, but I wanted the fucking thing to be medium rare. I am stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raptorpat Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 I get stressed about testing out ways to cook nicer things, ruining a steak that was loaded with potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it's working, our oven has a built in thermometer and shuts off when it reaches temp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jman Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 I've been there. My normal method for strips doesn't work nearly as well on T-Bones, so it ends up a bit overcooked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Codename: Jackass Posted January 13, 2019 Author Share Posted January 13, 2019 Second attempt was much better. This time it was a delicious ribeye. Still a little overdone but a nice medium. Sorry for the potato photo quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
