I thought ribeye was meant to be medium rare?

I can get away with Sirloin & Ribeye at rare but it's a push.

We sometimes frequent an Argentinian Steak restaurant called Gauchos, and they recommend rib-eye to be cooked medium, as this melts the fat, and makes the meat sweeter.

I’ve found if you balance out the excessive red meat consumption with excessive red wine, it sort of balances out…

Re: What is the best steak English or Irish ?

Any decent steak, lightly dusted with McCormick Montreal Steak Seasoning (not the imitation cheap knock offs), then grilled in the Ninja Foodi Grill, with the thermometer in. It gets them exactly how I like them but cooks them really well too.

Re: What is the best steak English or Irish ?

Not surprisingly, I apply some science… season with salt, pepper and garlic powder, vacuum seal in a bag and sous vide cook at 50 degrees for 2-3 hours. Take out of the bag, dry the meat and spread a very thin layer of mayonnaise on both side. I them sear in a scorching how cast iron pan and blowtorch.

Perfect rare steak every time

You mean Friday. I work in Warsaw too. There is no meat on Friday. They are Catholic.

Re: What is the best steak English or Irish ?

Medium really ruins steak (or lamb). And cuts like feather would be like leather if cooked that much.
