    Appetizer and meal sized.

    BTW, my first sous vide experiment tonight.

    I'm going to pick up some short ribs tomorrow to cook them for 48 hours, head to ace and get a propane torch to sear it up. Or I'll say eff it and just get a delmonico.

    For poached eggs I'll do 60C for 30 min, crack them into a ramekin and toss them in boiling water for about 10sec to firm up the whites. Also can throw them in an ice bath and keep them on hand whenever you need soft boiled or poached eggs

    Yeah, 65C was too much. I was thinking a 3 minute boil, then finish at 60-63C, somewhere in there. It's neat. I'm going to go beef shopping later today. This might be a great way to do sauerbraten too.

    I think it fits just fine in the Food section

    One of my favorites Porterhouse preferably done in my cast iron skillet

    Sweet fancy Moses that is a beautiful photo. I like Sutton and Doge (I buy them at Target) petite sirloins thrown into a smoking hot cast iron skillet for about 5 minutes per side and then set off to the side with lid for about 5 more minutes. Salt and pepper only.

    This may not show the steak much but I did have about 3 oz of that tenderloin leftover along with leftover focaccia and horseradish cheddar so I made an open faced sandwich for lunch today...

    Lol and the funny thing is that I live alone so I made that all for ME! :) The shrimp was so good, I cooked up a whole bag and used the rest the next day to make a nice little pasta.

    Ribeye for me, or tenderloin... medium rare to medium... Simply rubbed with some olive oil and sprinkled with some salt and pepper (fresh cracked). If it's a THICK steak, then I'll marinade it in some Dale's marinade that's diluted with a little olive oil.

    ^^^^ absolutely this - medium so all the fat is cooked to perfection.

    You can't beat some sea salt on a steak - really brings out the flavour of the meat.

    O M G - If I could only eat one more meal before I died, I seriously think this would be it!

    The thread on eating in restaurants led to some interesting contributions on steaks, so let's talk steak.

    What cut(s) is(are) your preference?
    How do you prepare it usually?
    How do you prepare for just a few people versus for a bunch?
    Do you prefer the oven or a Dutch oven like Le Creuset on the stovetop?
    Do you marinate?
    Other tips and comments?
    Or merely want to declare your steak love?

    I'm particularly interested in the more affordable cuts that can be taken to new heights in recipes such as bœuf bourguignon!

    ETA
    Should this be in recipes? Might have had a brain fart, sorry.

    New York Strip
    Bring it to room temp
    We don't generally hold large gatherings
    I prefer a grill but have done them in the oven. The process below is for the grill.
    Lightly season salt, pepper and garlic OR Slap Ya Mama if I'm not worried about the sodium
    Don't need to marinate
    Heat the grill to high 3 minutes per side
    Move off the heat close the lid and leave on 3 -4 minutes for medium
