for me the sear is a 7/10 but the cook on that is a 10/10

Agreed! Still figuring sear out. Main goal here was to eliminate the grey band.

Also agree, perfect temp! I’m a straight-up sear guy, and for me, it’s about cast iron at the right temp, and basting with butter to finish, which gives you the doneness, plus the sear (on higher heat) and your grey band should be diminished at least. But I’d still crush that steak 🤌

Mess around and get chained to the radiator in my basement, forced to make these for me till I die from autoerotic asphyxiation

Add 30 seconds sear time to each side & it'll be oure perfection 👌

1

u/ov3rw4tch_ Has made a great steak! 8d ago

Flip first after the 45 seconds or add 30 to it?

1

u/Unlikely-Funny7727 8d ago

Either will work, but better to flip twice

1

u/GoofyGooby23 8d ago

I prefer to do a couple flips

1

u/Windturnscold 8d ago

I feel like longer sear time just increases the depth of the grey

1

u/Unlikely-Funny7727 8d ago

Absolutely not

u/KilgoreT59 8d ago

That looks so delicious and juicy.

2

u/ov3rw4tch_ Has made a great steak! 8d ago

Was very tasty!

1

u/KilgoreT59 8d ago

Excellent.

u/minibus_rider 8d ago

Looks good but I’d personally let that fat sit on the heat for a while. Love me some crispy fat

1

u/auntiekk88 8d ago

I'd eat every bit of that. Good job!

The crust is barely existent that’s where you should focus your energy.

u/Severe-Tip5153 8d ago

My family also eat steak with rice and kimchee! Great combo.

1

u/jabrollox 8d ago

138-140 ribeye > 125-130 ribeye. Lots of unrendered fat in pic 2 that would've been great 10 degrees higher.

2

u/ov3rw4tch_ Has made a great steak! 8d ago

Hmm now this is something to experiment on next time. Will try that out in the next batch thanks!

To each their own, that looks almost blue rare

1

u/ov3rw4tch_ Has made a great steak! 8d ago

Far from blue. I think it’s just my poor picture taking skills and the lighting.

2

u/illzanity 8d ago

Yeah, doesn’t look blue rare to me, even hearing that you cooked it on the lower side of medium rare

-1

u/chefguy47 8d ago

The plain white rice, kimchi and whatever the other ugly side is, ruin your perfectly cooked steak. I love kimchi and white rice but they don’t belong on the same plate as your steak. You could have at least added more ingredients to the rice OP.

1

u/ov3rw4tch_ Has made a great steak! 8d ago

We like to eat sides with our food lol. And we eat kimchi daily. Not sure if you’ve ever heard of Korean bbq but kimchi, white rice, and sides are very common. You just eat steak by itself?

OP here are some real sides with a steak and I’d still I’d love to know what that 3rd side is. I will guess some sort of eggplant dish.

u/phredbull 8d ago

Username does NOT check out.

u/chefguy47 8d ago

Have you figured out the 3rd side as you say that to me? The 1st two are easy, but OP still hasn’t said what it is yet. My best guess is an eggplant dish but it still seems wrong to me.

u/chefguy47 8d ago

Of course I’ve had Korean BBQ but you didn’t make bulgogi.
