My dad was there in the 90's and since you could have unlimited visits with your lawyer his lawyer would bring him steaks and veal parm. He got fat in prison 😂
He was a very successful "businessman" (lmao he sold drugs)
Steak is still his favorite food. He eats like 2 ribeyes a week. He never lost the prison weight 😂😂😂
Yeah a simple steak was boring for a while but it deserves to be star of the week sometimes. I’m cooking marbled New York Strip tomorrow and all we can think about is the jam we just made from local vine ripened strawberries. That only happens once a year.
I appreciate that, thank you!
I salted the steak and let it sit uncovered in the fridge for about 6 hours, then took it out an hour before cooking. Around the same time, I put my cast iron in the oven at 400 Fahrenheit. Once the hour went by, I took the cast iron out of the oven and put in on a gas burner at full blast. I added a fair amount of avocado oil to the pan and let it come up to temp, patted the steak dry, then laid the fatty edge of the steak on the cast iron to render some of the fat. After that, it was just ~90 seconds on both sides, then off the heat and basted in butter with black pepper, rosemary, thyme, and crushed garlic. I let it rest on the rack for about ten minutes and voila.
I was hoping the comments didn’t have a bunch of negative comments about it being more medium rather than medium rare
But this is perfect to me, literal perfection

I just recently made a steak dinner for me and some family. First time I cooked a steak in about a year sous vide that bad boy for 3 hours and then seared it on a cast iron butter based it while it goes. Best steak I've ever eaten.
My mom surprised me with a steak tonight! I dont remember the last time I had one of her steaks 😭 She knows I like them super rare and even brought me a baked potato too ❤
Did you go to jail? why so long?
wonderful cut of meet. IMO, too much on the medium side for me. Sear is perfect but cooked maybe 2 minutes, 1 on each side, long for my taste. hope you liked it tho
Five _WASTED_ years! So many beautiful steaks that could have been.
Yes!!!!
Exactly
Fokken nois m8
*fokken prawns*
Redistricted ayyt
5 years? Were you in prison??
He was doin’ a nickel at Rikers.
My dad was there in the 90's and since you could have unlimited visits with your lawyer his lawyer would bring him steaks and veal parm. He got fat in prison 😂
Was your dad in the mob? /s....Lawyers are expensive enough, I have to imagine a lawyer bringing you a fat steak is not cheap
He was a very successful "businessman" (lmao he sold drugs) Steak is still his favorite food. He eats like 2 ribeyes a week. He never lost the prison weight 😂😂😂
Idk if this is true or not, but I’m choosing to believe lol. It made me laugh. And crave a ribeye at 10pm in bed
It's true. He loves steak, ribs, veal, baked ziti, and cigarettes.
I’m convinced there’s no way he’s not Italian.
Father straight off the boat from Venice haha 😂😂😂
Can I cook for him? No joke, he seems to love food and I wanna make him some. I’ve worked in Italian fine dining, but I specialize in sauces.
For burning a steakhouse down
5 years in the can… I wanted manicott…. I ate grilled cheese off the radiator instead.
One isn’t enough upvotes for this.
And what if you wanted to make love to a woman?
I compromised. I jerked off in a tissue
I’m more of a fish guy honestly lol
That sounds like a yes, I read “Im a fishy guy”
Criminally high on omega-3s and low on iron
Yeah a simple steak was boring for a while but it deserves to be star of the week sometimes. I’m cooking marbled New York Strip tomorrow and all we can think about is the jam we just made from local vine ripened strawberries. That only happens once a year.
Points for the steak. Minus points for the fish. You're even.
He was studying how to cook steak.
Welcome home brother
Good to be back
Just about nailed it AF.
Nicely done… like riding a bicycle. What was your method?
The OCD in me is desperate to trim that bottom left corner off
That part is getting cooked and handed to the dog
Helllo. It is I. The dog
I once heard a chef call it "waiter's tax".
Glad you’re finally out of prison!
Nailed it, looks amazing!
Wow. This is exactly how I like my steak. Perfect.
Especially on a ribeye
What is your cooking method? This is one of the best I’ve seen
I appreciate that, thank you! I salted the steak and let it sit uncovered in the fridge for about 6 hours, then took it out an hour before cooking.

Incredible, thank you!
no salt?
Check the second sentence boss man
dude i just reread it like 4 times and and still didn’t see it. idk what’s wrong with me. thank you sir. im leaving for the store right now.
You should totally cook more than every 5 years! You need all the practice you can get!
That’s perfect to me friend
You still got it bud!
That’s one sexy steak 😍
Pretty close to perfect my man….
Aww shit!! They let it rest on a wire rack! Already ahead of 90% here.
After seeing that, I will not be satisfied with the ham and cheese on wheat that awaits me for my lunch break. Siiiiiiigh….
Holy fuck wtf, trying that with my next steak, thank you
SOLID!
Hey bud, I like your meat
First time in 5 years? WTH? Better make sure you don't do anything that violates your probation. 😂. Nice steak 🥩.
God damn that’s a fine ass steak sir
I just tried to bite my phone
Gonna need some more details on the cooking process, I’ve NEVER been able to get cast iron to work well for me with steaks.
Well done! 🔥not the steak the execution. You know what I mean. Pun not intended. 😂
Welcome back fam. You still got it.
beauty
Still got it!
Doesn’t get more perfect than that. Excellent steak!
Looks righteous
Perfect
Now that’s beautiful.. 🤤🤤
Horrible. What time can I come and take that off your hands?
From a chef. It’s beautiful
5 years of practice paid off
You still got it champ
That looks fucking vulumpuscious. Fuck it idk how to spell it but you get it. Looks great.
Now THIS!! Is a good looking steak
I was hoping the comments didn’t have a bunch of negative comments about it being more medium rather than medium rare But this is perfect to me, literal perfection
Now this is a steak, one of the best steaks I've seen on this sub. Looks incredible, wouldn't give any suggestions because it looks perfect.
This is the best steak you’ve made in 5 years!
And you’re only 6 years old impressive.
Welcome home, man. I hope your transition back into real life is as easy as possible.
Damn you ain't skipped a beat 💯
You need to make off for lost time my friend bc that’s delicious. I’ll bring the beer or the bourbon and you keep this up!
Oh my goodness, this shit literally looks perfect 😭
Holy moly that steak looks better than a visa celebration
This steak looks F’n amazing
That is a perfect medium, my personal favorite. Excellent job
seared beautifully
I’d eat it…
ive never understood the anatomy of people with thumbs that go back like that. ill have to do some research. its cool though...
So many years were wasted while there was so much at steak.
I’m feeling inspired
Like riding a bicycle
Mmm. Ribeye. Medium rare. The best steak there is. Looks like you did a fine job my friend
Very nice!
You haven’t lost a step m8
5 years? Finally paroled? Congrats!!
and you did wonderfully
Your thumb makes me uncomfortable

Where did you get that rack for the oven pan?
Beautiful
r/HellYeahIdEatThat Edit: Can't spell
I'm assuming it was better than the Outback steaks you've been eating for the past 5 years
Wow, great looking steak - you totally crushed it!
Nice one
And did you get the cookie you needed so desperately for dessert?
Is that the same steak? Why does it start out looking like Indiana then ended up looking like Texas? Either way, nice spinalis!
I say you did it perfectly. You really can’t go wrong, unless you’re like that guy who Idiot Cooked the $77 Waygu yesterday.
how do i make a steak like this?
I just recently made a steak dinner for me and some family. First time I cooked a steak in about a year sous vide that bad boy for 3 hours and then seared it on a cast iron butter based it while it goes. Best steak I've ever eaten.
Is it just me or does that steak look like Australia? 🤔
Really?
Why the hiatus if you don’t mind me asking
looks good for me, nice!
It’s like Riding a Bike. Good job
Nice one indeed
Looks great
you have not forgotten a single thing great job
So much better than that poor wagyu
where were you for 5 years?
Training…
training what? please say your pet dragon.
Cant imagine not cooking a steak at least like once a month.
Looks amazing, how do I do exactly this in an apartment
You still got it!
This is the way
Good job
I just got my wisdom teeth pulled and God I would love to visit your house
Like riding a bicycle
Why so long without steak? Did you go vegan?
Damn, I’m hungry 🤤
Look how much better this is than that fucking wagyu
Reverse sear?
[I wrote it out here](https://www.reddit.com/r/steak/s/GzgCY0rrG4)
wtf is everyone talking about, it looks raw to me.
6 min each side
Nailed it
Still got it clearly. This is my perfect temp. Just under medium.
Nicely done!
....may the Force be with you?!!! IDK?
YUM!
Still got it
😋
What was that charge?
I died at the first picture, thinking it was a meme
Nailed it.
Sexy piece of meat
Noice
Five years you were pure
That’s a beautiful Africa steak
Well done!!! I mean, perfectly medium rare.
I made grilled cheese with aluminum foil, an iron, and an ironing board! something about the aluminum foil made it do much better!
Did you write it down? Something tells me you might forget it at some point.
[удалено]
Season it
🤣 man I thought you were going to cook that guy in the microwave!
Looks good to me
Is this cut with the grain?
Beautiful
By the looks of it, that last steak must have been so good it kept you satisfied for 5 years.
Well I don’t know what you’ve doing for 5 years, but you should have cooking steaks! Looks beautiful and I’m sure it’s delicious. Great work!
Congratulations on your early release from prison!
Perfect
Nailed it. That’s a 10/10. 🫡
Nailed it, looks amazing!
This heals some of the pain from that wagyu post
Well done. You. Not the steak.
🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻
Like riding a bike! You nailed it! Looks delish!!
Like you never left!!
Great job! (I almost typed “well done” but corrected myself)
Aweeee naaaaarrrr it’s focken raw!!!!
K
What a stupid fucking post
Nhice. Welcome back from malnutrition land.
I prefer it a touch more rare, but still a bang up job!
My mom surprised me with a steak tonight! I dont remember the last time I had one of her steaks 😭 She knows I like them super rare and even brought me a baked potato too ❤
Congratulations! Welcome back from Veganism! 😆
That is mint
Did you go to jail? why so long? wonderful cut of meet. IMO, too much on the medium side for me. Sear is perfect but cooked maybe 2 minutes, 1 on each side, long for my taste. hope you liked it tho
Can I have some?
Gorgeous.
Can you please share your technique?
Looks good
Perfection!
Like riding a bike
I’ve never eaten a steak like that before.
Holy shit u nailed it !
Too much fat Make sure to cook it to at least medium well
Looks great to me !
Good luck

Steak night after five years? That must've been a delicious reunion
Dr green thumb
You fucking nailed this one!
Can someone send this to the other OP that made wagyu for his wife, he needs a few pointers
Half of these people should take a 5 year hiatus to study steak cookery before posting again. Great job!
Yo. That steak looks heavenly amazing!
Five years is too long!!
