I do my steaks at 54 degrees C / 129 degrees F.

I did my steak today for 4.5 hrs as it was about and inch and a half thick.

You can do it for a lot less (time) but I have found that 2 hrs is required to get it juicy and tender.

That would have gone straight back if that was served to me as medium rare.

I reckon a good vet would get that back on its feet.

Barely even that. I suspect that one was still cold in the middle. Undercooked straight from a fridge, no resting.

You should have asked for some gherkins and an egg yolk and made your own steak tartare biggrin

From a very rare steak lover, I agree, that is not good. Doesn’t even look like it was warmed

Was going to buy a large t bone to share between me and the other half. Unfortunately I wasn’t too happy with the size of the fillet on the t bone so went for a single rib of beef instead.



Seared in a griddle and finished off in the oven to medium rare.







Was a little fatty but I don’t mind that. Very tasty though.

At what point does a steak stop being a steak and become a joint of roast beef? scratchchin

The answer is in the name. Roast over fry/bbq.

So you can't cook a steak in the oven then?

I'm sure it's possible, but it most definitely should not be.
