Cruzer 1,992 Posted March 21, 2017 Restaurants suck. If you can't grill a better burger and steak than any restaurant you're doing it wrong. Anyone can make a really good steak at home - not everyone has access to dry aged prime beef or an 1800* commercial grade broiler. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
penultimatestraw 473 Posted March 21, 2017 Give me a good burger over a good steak any day of the week.Veggie burgers are the best. I highly recommend field roast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tanatastic 2,061 Posted March 21, 2017 Steak should never ever be close to medium. Da fuk? Yuck, medium is the minimum for me. I can't stand gummy nasty close to raw meat even if it tastes divine. I need med-med well or it makes me gag. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wiffleball 4,635 Posted March 21, 2017 Not a fan of places that feel they need to 'sear' a perfectly good piece of meat at cremation level flame and heat. One of the worst things you can do IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TimmySmith 2,782 Posted March 21, 2017 No great burger is better than a great steak. There are some steak that are still good when cooked to medium. No burger should be cooked past rare. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As good as any beef burger Ive ever had. Do you make your own? I'm trying to incorporate some meatless days into my weekly meal plan. I've made black bean and chickpea burgers. Both pretty decent.

Alias Detective 1,179 Posted March 21, 2017 Anyone can make a really good steak at home - not everyone has access to dry aged prime beef or an 1800* commercial grade broiler. Speaking of broiler. I cooked my last ribeye steaks under the oven broiler at home. The damn propain tank was close to empty and I didn't feel like filling it. I improvised and was VERY happy with my results.

Or are you talking about the fake meat stuff? Personally I don't, but Ive tried good ones made from black beans, quinoa, and taro. Although I don't care for them, there are decent ones made from mushrooms as well. But seriously, field roast is delicious: http://fieldroast.com/product/hand-formed-burger/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vuduchile 1,941 Posted March 21, 2017 Speaking of broiler. I cooked my last ribeye steaks under the oven broiler at home. The damn propain tank was close to empty and I didn't feel like filling it. I improvised and was VERY happy with my results. Using a broiler is actually the preferred method of cooking steaks. I sear both sides in a cast iron skillet then throw it in the oven to broil for a few minutes. Save the grill for the burgers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

giraldi02 470 Posted March 21, 2017 I sous vide my steaks. I cant grill to save my life, but with sous vide I make perfect steaks every time. Throw it in the water for an hour or so and then sear for texture. Heres the difference between a sous vide steak vs a traditionally grilled steak: https://d3awvtnmmsvyot.cloudfront.net/api/file/g7bxNK6JRFO5Q4oG1VxF/convert?fit=max&w=1450&quality=60&cache=true&rotate=exif&compress=true Ive been wanting to try this method for a while now.

The hard thing is getting the bread. The bread is as important as the olive salad. one muffuletta loaf, marinated olive salad, layers of mortadella, salami, mozzarella, ham, provolone. The muffuletta is both a type of round Sicilian sesame bread and a popular sandwich originating among Italian immigrants in New Orleans, Louisiana using the same bread. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
