i recall Burly getting some comments about the relative charred exterior of the steak he grilled up a couple weeks ago, which i thought was unfounded as that's exactly how i like it.

off the grill:

sliced, showing rare interior:

on the plate:

 

[syadasti]

Looks good, any marinate, garlic cloves, spices used?

Talking about food, the teaser is up for Fast Food Nation.

 

[gastro]

Nicely done (literally). It takes a good hot grill to get that charring without overcooking the inside - may I ask charcoal or gas?

 

[narlus]

gas all the way, but i need to do some troubleshooting w/ my burner, as i think some of the holes are clogged. the jerked chicken i grilled afterwards for lunch this week needed to stay on a very small portion of the grill surface in order to cook.

syadasti, no marinade needed for these steaks. a touch of olive oil and some freshly ground sea salt and black pepper is all that touches it. boneless ny strips = the win.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Ahhhhhh........... ah love the strip.

I even forego the salt on mine. Just a bit of ground pepper and on the grill she goes.

BTW - nice char.

 

[narlus]

re: salt, what i've been doing lately is just grinding a bit on the steak as it comes off the grill, during it's setting time.

 

[stinkyboy]

I questioned his grilling abilities in the same way I will question why you need to eat a half pound of broccoli, but dammit that steak looks excellent!

 

[binary visions]

Very nice, narlus. I love a good strip steak cooked rare. I go very light on the salt and a moderate amount of pepper. No marinades for a steak like that, don't want anything to detract from the taste of the meat!

 

[Polandspring88]

That sir is a well cooked steak. Just how they should be, nice and cooked on the surface but rare in the middle. I hate when steak is overdone.

 

[dogwonder]

Man, you cooked it way too long. Too well done for me...I prefer to have my steak cooked for at least 7 seconds per side...

 

[OGRipper]

Nice work, looks soooo good.

What's the noodle action you got there?

 

[narlus]

cold sesame/peanut noodle salad, w/ ginger and scallions. it's a store-bought item (same place we get the meat), but so damn good and easy.

Nice, thought maybe it was soba. Cold noodles are great with food off the grill and prepared stuff like that makes it so easy.

That's why I forego the salt altogether. Oh, and that steak would be categorized as medium-rare in my house.

Just enough to kill the surface E. coli.

 

[Nobody]

I may be late to the party, but by no means least with the praise!

Gorgeous!

My psyber-sense is tingling!

The last photo is nearly perfect! (except for the noodles - just my bias, appearance-wise, i'm sure they taste great!)

 

[dogwonder]

I've built up an immunity to E. coli...in fact I may be a carrier.

Pertinent to any cannibals out there.

Me:

• Let the steak sit out till it's room temp.
• Cut a few wounds into it.
• Stuff wounds w/ smashed garlic
• Rub down steak w/ coarse salt and pepper.
• Throw over very hot coals.
• Burn the outside, let the very core get warm and slightly bloody.
• Eat.

on the plate:

Nice, but what's with the little tree things and the stringy stuff??

 

[Ciaran]

gas all the way,

:nonono: :nonono: :nonono:


Nice lookin steak, though!

 

[narlus]

we came from t-ball and had dinner on the plates in about 20 minutes. try that w/ wood; the kids would have been asleep before the coals were ready (not to mention the relative fiasco that trying to light a grill in the t-storm/gale wind environment would have been).

These coal/wood fire snobs can kiss my bare white ass.

you have a white ass?

Gas has less carcinogen, more even heating...

Git your hippy attitudes outta my BBQ! Frikkin hippy.

Gas just ain't right, I tell ya... just ain't right...

I BBQed a pork tenderloin last night. Came out sooooo nice... sooooo tender and juicy! Just a little pepper on it and that's all.

 

[dG video]

Tell me how the F you made that, and the noodles too. Holy crap that looks good!

 

[narlus]

grilling the meat couldn't be easier...

pre-heat a grill on the hottest setting for ~5-10 minutes.
put a touch of olive oil on the steaks, and freshly ground black pepper
put the steaks (these are boneless NY strips) on the grill
at around 4 minutes, flip
cook for another 3 minutes or so.

take the steaks off, let sit for ~5 minutes.
put a dash of sea salt on, slice and serve.

the biggest part of this dish is to get high quality meat.

i didn't make the noodles; it was store bought. contains pasta noodles, ginger, scallions, peanuts, sesame, a touch of oil and probably a touch of sugar, you could also add a pinch of cayenne pepper too.

Tell us about it after you have multiple kids............

 

[OGRipper]

I cook with gas inside and out. I prefer wood but it's a pain when I just want to fire something quickly, and gas is easier to control. Throw a few wood chips on the grill and I even get a little real wood smoke.

Ciaran, what fuel do you use? Please tell us you are not using kingsford or some other chemo-charcoal, that is just the worst.

And it ain't a BBQ, it's a grill. Unless I am wrong and you are talking real barbecue, it which case gas really is wrong.

 

[Ciaran]

Ahhh... touche!

I imagine that many of my "convictions" will change after I have some kids.

Ciaran, what fuel do you use? Please tell us you are not using kingsford or some other chemo-charcoal, that is just the worst.

Depends on the situation, but I try to use real wood charcoal. I'll use the kingsford stuff in a pinch or when it's hotdogs and cheapy burgers for the niece and nephews. But for nice meats I'll try different wood coals. Some of them can be a tad hard to get going but it's worth it (to me).

Sometimes we have a fire in the firepit going, in which case I'll grab some coals from there.

I'm still learning about how to grill as I am finally in a house after 6+ years in an apartment so I have lot's of things yet to try.

 

[laura]

that picture makes my stomach growl every time i look at it and now i DON'T want my chicken for lunch.

 

[JRogers]

those pics just made me hungry! That is a good looking piece of meat.

 

[dG video]

Cooking steak tonight, we'll see how it goes. Maybe pics to come?

 

[Cash-Money]

i like to rub montrela steak spice on both sides of mine, pack it into the meat. Put the cast iron fry pan on the bbq, get it nice and hot. Sear the steak on both sides and finish it on the grill for some colour. I like mine to moo when it comes off the grill

ew...I consider this a very effective form of birth control.

 

[TN]

Nice beef too.
I like mine cooked a bit more in the middle, but not much more.
