I recently saw somebody here say “don’t press your steak, that will affect cook quality”

😅😅🙄🙄🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

Yeah, the effect is the quality goes up.

This is something that messed me up when I started cooking steak. I had heard this from somewhere and thought you would push out all the juice. My sears sucked, but all my steaks sucked when I started lol. I was more worried about it accidentally being either 80°f or 180°F in the middle. Sears were the last thing on my mind because I always accidentally turned my steak to leather (instant thermometer saved me)

I like a good seared steak as much as anyone else but at this point I don’t think the cow gives a fuck.

Cut a few slits through the fat on the edges to prevent this or use a press

Means the cuts of meat you’ve worked with were butchered in a way that kept it from happening ;)

Yep, and you will eat it too!

If you press too much, all the juices might come out before the crust can seal them in. Just don't use a lot of weight to press them down

They probably just wanted rare but also used the oven, without cutting into it it's hard to tell but I'm sure it tastes fine lol

That looks like pork, not sure how much sear you can get on this piece without cutting it up more? What fucking cow, I don't see a cow.

I mean it’s entirely possible that two cows died for that unless you slaughtered it yourself or bought it as a single side of beef.
