I like this Chef he doesn't seem so incredibly full of himself, just genuinely enthused about trying/making good food.
All great chef are like him tbh, when they are exploring food. but when you are working for them, they have like a different personality no joke LOL.
Mandibule tbh? Throw back Henry or healthy or maybe...the big horn?
Stu Dunn He has this adventurous side that makes you wonder what will he do next.
they are all lovely chefs when they explore and eperiment on new menu items. But the rest of the day, you don't want to argue with them haha
My chef used to undress me and spank me as initiation for line cook job.
that chef looked genuinely worried when this dude just started mowing it down raw 😂
Tony yeah I started laughing 😁😁😁
Man atleast lost 10 points off his health.
why do you know that
He probably had to go straight to the bathroom after this episode.
@KNACK 2 THA FUTURE but it was rotten
Something tells me if that steak tasted like a old boot he would say it was just unbelievable the best thing he’s ever had
yo lo yo heard of the saying “the fat is the flavour”?
@@jackg2630 yeah the flavour of heart attack
@@imtiazmubin that’s a myth. Animal fats don’t cause heart disease.
@@Dudecifer yeah they do animal fat is low density lipoprotein which can raise the cholesterol level in blood and causeing atherosclerosis which is a blood vessel dieses that can cause heart attack and strokes
@yo lo That's what i thought untill i ate it lol wagyu is handsdown the best meat i have EVER eaten in my life.
Jesus, this guy look like the kind of person who claps when the plane landed.
LMAO
Fake at its best. But luckily for him, he is eating good meat. Bully for him.
"Hercules..Hercules.."
But he has TWO tattooed sleeves! Chuck Norris would have no hope.
Haha
I made my own hamburgers yesterday. Cost me about 3 euro's and it tasted fucking godlike.
Tasted fucking godlike? You must have pallets of a 1 year old baby to be eating a burger and trying to compare it to this.
EURO
+Ki Mu Your comment reeks of one of the worst cases of insecurity that i've ever seen.
+CPTANT like euro steps ?

"Here we have a certified Tyrannosaurus Rex, bone-in, ribeye steak, from the Laramidia island, dry aged since the Cretaceous Period. It has lost all of its water content, in order to intensi... its a petrified fossil...."
with a slight hint of death and decay and evolution
Well there exists even more bizzare foods on the planet like decade old cheese that was tenderized with... maggots.
I will give you 100k for 10% of your product
Henry: I'm in
And for that reason I'm out
Shark tank
dra6o0n we have it in italy itis called casu marzu (rotten cheese) and trust me it is incredibly good
... you can feel this extremely hard like texture it will literally brake your teeth.. just marvelous truly once in a lifetime experience if you have biten a rock in your yard
Love how the chef has no clue what he would charge for the steak. Really shows he's done this experiement for the love of making good food and not just to make money.
Not all the chef are doing budgeting. Often they design the menu and hand it to manager. At least according to my experience.
pretty sure this video paid for the steak and then some
Thats what i would say if my calculations came out to 400 a serving when it tastes like old sock
@@spriggo786 pretty sure it didnt
@@upcom1ng116 he's the owner aswell
Wonder how the chef felt about this hipster just shoveling the beef into his mouth like he's at a fast food place and then requesting more pieces of the expensive meat
Lilskruf he sounds like such a freeloaded
💀
lmao
Video ends..
Hey can you roll me a cigarette
I mean the chef has gotten over 10 million views of exposure in less than a year from this one video, so I am sure he is satisfied with the outcome lol.
I once had meat in my freezer for 3 months.
Should have sold it.
Mine is 10 month
Sell it and say the flavor is concetrated. Lol😂
I have elk meat that's 2 years old. Worth millions now
I have had filet mignon in my freezer for 4years. It's not dry more like freezer packed. I wonder if it's still good.
I liked that
The vegan version would be a dry aged slab of wood
Exactly and it tastes awesome
Akram Safirul That’s the vegan version of everything
Akram Safirul driftwood lol
But if you lower your standards youll love it. Lol
Eat pork enjoy life mullha
3:00
I literally laughed out loud when he pulled out his little camera and snapped that blurry, out of focus picture. This guy is something else lol
that little camera is a leica
Umm, as someone who makes a living out of taking food pictures I would say it’s quite nice and it made the meat look appetizing. Maybe check your video quality settings.
@@squirrelboss7067 it is a bit out of focus and the highlights are way blown
@@squirrelboss7067 "Quite nice" and "made the meat look appetizing", sure, that's subjective. But it's undeniably out of focus and blurry, which has nothing to do with the video quality.
That camera is worth more than your car, and for the record it was a good shot you just don't know what bokeh is
Keeps telling the chef what to do, the self appointed expert.
The dichotomy between this episode and the Burger King hot dog one is staggering. It's like:
"On the next episode, I eat a leftover spaghetti and meatball dish from an Olive Garden dumpster."
+Tetsu Hoshi I'd watch that.
+Eater can you run it by solares? i bet hes down for it too.
LOL
+Tetsu Hoshi ... I would commend @Eater for helping to solve this country's prolific food waste problem.
+Tetsu Hoshi Nick Solares is a specialist in culinary mood whiplash. Then again, good food is good no matter the price.
At what point in aging do we declare that we've screwed up a good piece of meat?
+9ballprodigy 401 days
lol
+9ballprodigy not here, move along
When they land in the hospital with food poisoining lol
+9ballprodigy when it tastes like cheese
This chef is so confident when he speaks about his steaks you can tell he’s passionate about his work
This Chef is the man. So down to earth. Would love to hear the Chef better describe, in detail, the nuances of flavors and textures from his experimental creations. Especially after patiently waiting 400 days.
LOL the chef was so surprised when Nick wanted to try it raw "you wanna try it raw are you f*ing serious!?"
made my day
+fifalafida my exact thoughts too hahaha
Haha same
Even the chef didn’t wanna try this beef raw lmao
Where's the beef? Only saw mold.
@@wheeliebin18 you have no idea what a dry age is do you
*Cracks open sarcophagus
"Ah, yes. Finally aged enough. Ready the pan!"
The best part of all of this was on 4:23
Oh yeah, yeah
oh you got me hahaha
Even the chef was thinking 'this meat is almost rotten, and you want to eat it raw!?' PML
Much like everyone watching this video, the chef was already over this guy the minute he opened his mouth.
I agree, this dude needs to stfu
This is so acurate, that it's sad
Exactly.. Wannabe to the extreme..
he should get the world's most expensive gym membership instead
like
"And how would you like your steak sir?"
"Medium and funky, thanks".
What nonsense is this?! It's goddam mold! He needed "sushi vinegar" to get rid of the "funk" for God's sake!
0:46 The way the chef looks at that meat like he's thinking, "That's looks old as h3ll..."
The host started out American and by the end was British.
Lord Hanson Immediately thought the exact same thing. 😂😂😂
Must happen as a result of eating expensive steak.
Haha to funny
That always tripped me out. I’m always wondering if he’s a Brit or American because the accent is always changing
Funk funk funk.... funk you man
Funky is not a description I ever want my steak to get.
I get it .. it's like blue cheese and truffles ... It's an aquired taste... not for many at $1000 a pop! 😁
Well you've never tried blue cheese with steak or even aged steak then.
sad for you.
@@DontTrustShadows nah Prime beef all day. get back to scraping the mold off your diner loser.
@@dwaynedionne3092 Blue cheese is not an acquired taste lmfao.
Yh, at that point i was like, u go in to pay for a couple thousand dollar steak and get something that is overwhelmed by the taste of cheese. I do like blue cheeses of all descriptions but it is not what defines steak and by flavouring a cut of meat that has been aged for so long in order to increase the meat flavour with cheese, it kind of ruins it
He’s the type of guy who uploads a video of himself ordering “The Lobster Thermidor” in a McDonald’s drive-thru because he thinks it’s the funniest, most original joke ever.
I’m SO glad I’m not the only person here who thinks he did an absolute craptastic job. His level of sophistication in this video is on par with my 9 year old nephew’s.
As someone that has never had Wagyu beef, I can honestly say, this review would never make me want to spend the money on it.
Looool
Wagyu beef is extremely common what you're really looking to find is Kobe beef totally different from wagyu if you could even find real Kobe beef be prepared to pay $2,000 or more for a 16 oz steak 🥩
If he says the word 'funk' again I swear..
drinking game
funk
Funk you
youth03 hu
By the time your hear the next pop, the funk shall be within you
the host is the finest most pretentious most irritating food critic I've ever watched
"Coats your whole palette"
Tops it off with a Leica...
The Principle textual compound is hipster....
He's a professional carnivore.. How dare you ? :P
i also tell people my food has funk
After watching this video, I have now experience the taste of the most expensive steak in the world
This guy is exactly what I’d envision from someone who *eats wagyu once*
This dude eating rotten beef like he on minecraft
Bill Joep uncooked*
Raw... Not rotten(old) and the guy above is also correct
@@godkiller6853 he's probably means rotten as in more than a year old
Steak can not be rotted while being dry aged you idiot
by your logic cheese is rotten milk
1:50
Nick: "let's try it raw!"
Chef: 🤨 "You really want to try one piece raw? Are you serious?"
They eat steak raw in sooooo many restaurants
It's no problem to eat fresh meat raw, not sure how this goes for dry aged meat. I think for most or even all asians it's unusual to eat raw meat (not talking about fish here).
@@moos5221 lol@fresh meat though
Isn't steak tartare raw meat?
I like, really?
I love the way he responded to him asking to eat it raw
I wanna see what happens if Gordon Ramsay ate that?
ITS FOCKING R- DRYYYYYYYY
Was just about to comment that. 😂
ITS OLD YOU DONKEY
ITSSSS FUCKING RAAAAWWWWWWWWWWW YOU IDIOT SANDWICH
I read all those comments with his voice haha
“Furry, funky, flavour”.... sounds delightful....
That's definitely one way to describe rotten beef.
It was taken from a furry.
@@konami1979 it's only rotten on the outside they cut that off and eat the inside thats the whole point of dry aging
@xSage 115x intensifies the flavor and juicy
Furry funky hairy sexy
There’s just enough and then there’s too much, we crossed that line on day 160 of 400 dry aging a steak.
They really need to bring this series back
02:39 chef is like "this shit is gross dude wtf"
Covers all 9000 tastebuds... Warm.... Ariated.... That's a 10.
Deoxin *Intense lip smacking*
SiliPiano I now need a gold plated spoon so I can make that reference to my friends...
u mean over 9000
h3h3 is not ass
That top note
I can tell the chef was taken aback by the flavor and not in a good way but was agreeable with this guy since he's just showering praise no matter what
how do i become a professional carnivore sounds like the best title ever
Love, love that epic shot @ :31 th-cam.com/video/3s4tvVS9VO0/w-d-xo.htmlm31s
+ChefSteps hello!
baba BZNZ Howdy!
+ChefSteps wow i love your videos dude ur so great
+ChefSteps Hi Grant :>
+ChefSteps Thanks!
The last thing I want is a funky steak, one that coats the entire pallet, or a steak that tastes of blue cheese.
+pixiniarts Tastes like blue cheese? Hell yeah. Smells like blue cheese? I'm going to fucking vomit.
+pixiniarts I bet you order steak well done and eat it with ketchup
+ItsSomeDeadGuy I bet you typed that while swilling a fernet branca in one hand and curling your neckbeard whiskers with the other.
+pixiniarts You and the others who like this comment probably have a discerning pallet not worthy of making you a true foodie, as true foodies love all food and enjoy eating with people. I agree with @ItsSomeDeadGuy; you probably order your steak well done and with sauce. You eat California Rolls and Spicy Tuna Rolls at sushi restaurants. And drink Diet Coke with numerous refills.
ikr
the chef is annoyed also
right
right
yeah well it's just an experiment
its not really worth anything no more man its rotten flesh
right
right
*fucking tourists*
Host: this is the most expensive steak that's ever made
Chef: i don't know what to price for it
That "Funk" is the taste of decay. What's the next frontier? Aged road kill?
Hehe
You mean exactly like cheese, wine, vinegar and bacon? Bacteria make the best food you clown
Yes, controlled decay. The way humans have done for thousands of years to preserve meat.
You probably put ketchup on your choice steak from Vons.
"The principal textural compound"
😂😂😂😂😂 like Wtf...not that serious bro
Dude I literally paused it when he said that and repeated it out loud 😂😂😂
🤣🤣
wtf does "funk" taste like?
Blue cheese!
Compare that to slightly blue waffle pls
Done that once, haven't enjoyed a decent meal since, or a good fuck either
i like smoking blue cheese, very tasty strain
Like swamp ass
host seemed like that "well would ya look at this" guy.
You have no idea how many times I've watched this since 2016...
"I don't even know what I can charge..." that right there is a true artist
+photopawn37 No kidding, imagine how much work went to keeping a piece of meat on a shelf for months. Like... a lot probably.
Nevermind the anticipation
Funnily enough, "furry" and "funky" are terrible words to try and make steak sound good
Yeah, this has genuinely out me off aged meat
When I heard furry I said, "Gross."
Well, there aren't a lot of accurate adjectives that apply here and make the process appetizing. Let's remember one thing - when we talk about dry-aged meat, we're talking about fermenting, decomposing meat. This is done under controlled conditions, to be sure - but when all's said and done the process of dry-aging beef is nothing more or less than a process of manipulating its decomposition. Yummy!
I know. All I can think is "dry age funk" = rotted meat. I've wanted to try dry aged beef for a while now, but after seeing this, not so much.
@@GaelinW THe funk level really depends on time. There really are cheese like flavors. BTDT
3:02 that looks ridiculously good.. I literally just ate and now I'm hungry again after seeing it!
The host reminds me of Paul Giamatti’s character in Sideways, only with steak instead of wine.
what about dry aged waifu
the best
So, you get a milf in the end?
+igot2remember yes
So you want a women who is old and doesn't get wet anymore?
+JamesCizuz AHHAHAHAH
The most expensive steak in the world is at a ramen shop...wtf.
+OCSleazy The fact that its wagyu and its dry aged for 400 day, it can be considered a top quality steak. Although the chef isn't selling it, so we can't really know how much that would cost.
+MyNameIs Shawnie I definitely wouldn't call this the most expensive steak in the world, maybe in America. The best Wagyu beef in Japan is not allowed to be exported and easily goes over $1000.
+nar0156
You can actually order A5 grade wagyu from Costco. It just costs $137 per lb lol.
+Throw away
He was referring to Kobe wagyu, which isn't your normal wagyu.
The way the dude started tasting the food and then waffled so hard lol,legit man is doing his English exam when describing the steak
I have a dry aged steak in my fridge, been there since 2015, now its 2019
This bloke has a different accent for every occasion.
Andrew Miller He mentioned it in a previous video, that he grew up in UK but is American
Lol
Didn't know beef jerky can be so expensive...
Haaaaaaa Haaaaarrrrrr Haaaaarrrrrr Haaaaarrrrrr well said
I was thinking the same pretty much just pan fried jerky and added moisture to the other one. Granted it's wagyu.
'let me eat it raw'
'are you serious? Is he serious?'
When the chef looks at you funny when you say "I want to eat the meat raw", you probably shouldn't do it.
And when you're describing the flavor as amaretto and apricot, go see a doctor, you're probably having a stroke.
I wish we could have listened to the chef talk about the steak more. What was he going for? His thoughts on the results? Changes for next time?
Did not need to hear hipster Steve struggle frantically to say something worthwhile.
+le I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought he was annoying.
I can't take that guy (the dude doing the eating) seriously because of how pretentious he is. Send a normal guy to taste an expensive steak, please.
+gimmejerb there would be no point for it to go on their channel if they did what you suggest....
+gimmejerb i swear i had to put my mouse over that bug thanks to your profile picture
i thought the bug in your profile picture was on my screen :D
"The smell of blue cheese off this thing."
That tells you exactly what it taste like lol.
wow I bet that would be amazing, having traveled quite extensively not only in the states but abroad, I have eaten some interesting things. Would love to try something like this.
"iT CoAts YouR EnItrE pALeTTe"
So he described it as "furry" "funky" and like "thyme and rosemary butter with meat flavor" yeah that sounds like $1000 well spent...
Except he probably didn't spend a single penny, they just knew each other and the chef just wanted to experiment with it...
He meant it in a good way, like blue cheese. There would definitely be people who wouldn’t like it though.
Sounds like mould.... which is what it is at this point.
Gordon Ramsay: For God's sake, this fridge is full of mummies from 5000 years ago!
I just read that in Ramsay's voice😂😂😂
The man eating off steaks and soaks up the funky favors.
This is, by far, THE BEST food review I've found (in terms of Video Quality, Content, and Uniqueness - compliment of the chef as well). Nick + chef - your eccentric personality and passion in the Video may come off and good/bad for the Viewers. Though, I love this section! keep it up! (please see this is as feedback to keep you guys man as I've never commented but this is for you Nick and the Legendary Chef sir!).
3:36 "The principle textural compound is the rice" Lol. This guy is obnoxious.
Have you had aged steaks? They completely melt in the mouth. If you combine a mouthful with another component that other component will be providing the texture.
@@dahalofreeek It's not that he's wrong, it's that he's annoying about it.
@@Kalikoded How so? I feel like people are just finding him pretentious because of his accent. There's nothing weird about the words he's using. He's a food journalist, of course he's going to try to speak more eloquently about food than your average restaurant-goer.
dahalofreeek so you’re telling me you enjoyed this doofus spew nonsense about a piece of rotten meat for 4 minutes
@@mid2860 Ah! Yes. This was a year ago. Why did you remind me?! Lol.
3:45 this sums up how much he actually knows, just let the chef speak lol
True
lmao
the chef's expression be like "nah dude, this doesn't even taste that good, you bullshittin'"
When I saw the thumbnail, I thought it was a bread. lol
In my opinion they ruined a beautiful cut by aging it for longer then the life span of a fucking galapagos tortoise.
because you tried it right
Was 400 days not 100 years lad
Smorc Savage no i haven't tried it but i have tried dry aged beef and when you het into the three digit days it starts to be a but excessive
You haven't tried Japanese dry aged beef. It's much better than most American or Australian that's for sure.
Same they say about Japanese wiskey.. everything from Japan turns magicly into the best thing ever.. Kinda strange I think.
i like the fact that the chef has stayed so nice even after working at high class restaurants. he seems like a cool guy!
Nice to see people experimenting. I wonder given the natural qualities of this beef is aging actually improves it much.
the principal textual compound. nice
I love culinary adventure; however, I would not like to try something that was referred to as "Funky" 5 times in one sitting. My socks are funky, thank you very much.
+MickyAvStickyHands Cheese is funky, but it's goooood ;)
+MickyAvStickyHands So no blue cheese? Miso? Gochujang? Fish sauce?
Those are all pretty tame on the scale of "culinary adventure" and are described as funky pretty constantly
Funny that he uses a Leica to take such a shitty picture.
+Iesvilla Shot wasn't even exposed properly lol.
+Iesvilla Just goes to show expensive camera ≠ good photographer
+Angelo Davis funny thing is the camera man gets awesome shots in the same situation.

“That must be like $1000 piece of steak right there.” “Actually I don’t know, I don’t even know what I can charge.” Life goals right there to have buyers like that.
in mtl we have a place the guy have 7years old steak at 1500$/kilo :P
Steve Martin goes in there and says " whats with all this old stuff? give me the freshest steak you got!"
I can tell the chef doesn't really like the guy. But he brings exposure.
Especially, when he knocked on the meat, ate the meat raw and requested seconds.
Really?
Or maybe only you don't like the guy. Don't assume that you have the same preference as the chef.

Perfect way to go around and con chefs out of prime cuts of beef. "...can I have another" lolololol
Lol at the moment when the chef asked are you serious....
"Funky" was the word I used for the last steak I had to return at a restaurant lol.
+Candace Lin Well, that is one interpretation of that word. There is, however, a big difference between good and bad 'funky'.
ztrinx1
true :') I haven't heard funky being used in a good way very much though.
+Candace Lin It is a technical term that chefs use. So in this context, the word is supposed to connote strongly fermented odor/ flavor akin to fish sauce, dry-aged beef etc, which all have this distinctive feature, and signify a type of umami.
+Candace Lin "Play That Funky Music, White Boy!"
1:29 Did he just say that it makes the meat that fucking quality?
Funky
+ZarZDodge You are a racist.
Lol he sure did
