[ Rare ] Enough sear for you lot?;)

not happy with the bit of a grey band; but nonetheless a beautiful bite. stainless steel is the king of crusts!

I refuse to even call that a grey band. Great work.

Beautiful, but let those sides and fat cap get in on the action!

upon reflection, yes I can see that! I’ll be sure to give them some love in my next post…

I’ll keep it real people who get so pedantic about a grey band like that need to give their balls a tug.

The grey band is 100% an issue but not here. Great cook.

Looks pretty good to me. I would hit the sides a little though, it doesn't take too long to make a huge difference.

Would devour.

Waiting for the grey band police to chime in.

I think it looks fantastic.

u/FattusBaccus 5h ago

Clean but you only got two of the sides! That temp is perfect for the though. How long on each side and how big a heat?

u/NeatShine4272 4h ago

i know! need to give the others more love next time. pre heated pan until water only just beads (setting 6 on my siemens induction for ref) , i find people overheat the pan to find a water beading heat and then burn their food. about a minute or two on each side, but do it by feel and get to know your pans. then let it rest for about 5

Perfect your technique and get that sear on the grill and charcoal… much much better flavor.

u/NeatShine4272 4h ago

i hope to oneday! living in the city means i don’t have the luxury of a charcoal grill. oneday tho🤞

Looks Burnt on outside and under cooked inside.

But hey, just my opinion, keep it civil 😕

u/NeatShine4272 4h ago

a hater !!! jokes aside, outside crust is just the maillard reaction it’s great! inside is a bit rare for some tho and i can appreciate that😋
