What happened to "50 states, 50 plates"????
Sonny!!
Come over sometime. I’ll cook you a nice steak dinner utilizing all these tips!!
It was my boys last day of school today 5thgrade . He usually cooks his own steak ( he's really good at it) Ribeye for him today. My boy CAN cook. ❤
Where can I find that seasoned salt recipe? Sounds amazing!
Steak looks great! The only critique is rubbing with oil before salting, since salt is not soluble in oil, you are putting on a barrier inhibiting salt from absorbing into the steak. I like adding salt, let it sit a while until you no longer see the salt crystals before adding any oil.
Been cooking steaks in cast iron pans for many years and thought i had nothing to learn, and here I just picked up a great tip that for some reason always escaped me: remove the steak from the pan and turn down the heat very low before adding the butter and aromatics! You'd think that was obvious, but no....I've always fought to baste my steak fast enough to keeep my butter and garlic from burning. Now I see this super easy step of taking the steak out to rest a bit while reducing the heat in the pan. FANTASTIC!!
Exactly what I thought.
Not only in cooking. Those who are in control of a process make it look too simple to believe.
Oh yeahhhhh bro, turn down, wayyy down.
Dude, cold butter will bring down the temp of your iron. You don't want to burn your butter. I don't remove the steak anymore, I use the frozen butter and remove the pan from heat.
Start the delicate part of basting and poke the steak, over and over until it's gets to be done. When it feels like it has bounce, it's finished when it pokes you back. Raw steak has no bounce or recoil, it's like a flabby feeling. You want to keep your butter from burning. Can't ruin a raw steak, but steakhouses serve lots of raw steaks and burnt.
@@dwayneelizondomountaindewh1465 Thanks. I'll try that. But I have to say the last 3-4 steaks I made were the best ever. Seems like both techniques are similar in that the goal is to reduce heat after the sear. I'm open to all ideas.
I really hope you picked up a tip or two in this video my friends and I sincerely hope that the next steak you cook is your best yet! HAPPY COOKING!
you should have sprinkled some salt off you're forearm on the fridge 😅
My kid jack, must have been watching you, cuz he made a steak, then went Bruce Lee on my fridge. Love it!
Great advice to use the on/off method. This makes it so much easier to cook many stakes.
Steak on/off the heat is a great tip. I’ve overcooked steaks trying to do everything at once. Seems like cooking one steak at a time is best.
Where’s the link to the rosemary salt recipe? Thank you.
This is exactly the way I make my steaks minus the shallot. I’m definitely trying the shallot now. My wife tells me it’s the better than any steakhouse we’ve been to. Ribeye and rib caps are the best. Thanks Sonny!
shallots are one of my favorite parts of this experience for sure
@@thatdudecancook definitely trying now! Thanks dude!
Shallots have no flavour.
She just wants you home early 😂
I love your “in and out the pan” technique, Sonny. Those in between rests really allows the surface of the steak to cool off while the rest of the heat penetrates in. That’s most likely why you have that beautiful pink color throughout the steak with no gray bands. This is almost similar to the “constant flipping” technique shown in America’s Test Kitchen.
You truly are one of the best this platform has, Sonny! Keep these amazing recipes coming!
I’ve made this steak and it was phenomenal❣️I made the rosemary salt using the rosemary in my garden and Redmond real salt. Same with the thyme~went out and picked it out of the garden. Planting my garlic and shallots this fall ♥️between that and finding a cattle rancher to get grass fed finished beef YES it’s better than anything you can get in a restaurant. Thank you so-much! I watched many videos including Gordon’s but chose yours. Used Kerigold butter but will make my own next for the full experience ♥️
This is how I cook my steaks. I’ve been doing this for many many years. This man has got it to perfection. This is absolutely perfect.
No oil if you got good marble all you need is a dry brine salt pepper and graduated garlic
Ever since I've seen your other, older video about basting a steak cooked on a stainless pan, I've never cooked steak better than I do now. This technique has impressed my entire family anytime I cook dinner for them. Thank you so much, dude!
Your recipes always make me excited to go try them; and they never disappoint!
You might think Sonny is exaggerating about this being better than a steakhouse, but my wife and I can attest to it after perfecting this over the last few months. I just got myself a 12" pan too, so I'm excited to make it even better shortly (thank you Sonny for the discount!). Seriously a life-changing way to make steak. I'll be making this when I'm 88 and for every new person I cook it for who thanks me for the deliciousness, I'll respond with "If you know, you know!"
You are the Master of how to cook a steak on TH-cam. I have been using this method from a previous TH-cam video you made. Keep on doing what you are doing your content is always useful and enjoyable.
Those of us who have been watching the channel for about a year or more now, between the shorts, collabs, and standalone videos, we KNOW Sonny can cook the fuck out of a steak. But.. we still watched the whole thing here AGAIN because there is something about watching a MASTER work his craft. I made my first Sonny Steak this past winter after summoning the courage and i literally cried at how it was the best steak I've ever made. Thank you Sonny, again, for everything!!
Thanks for the kind words William! I may have cooked a lot of steaks but I will always be a happy and curious student of cooking.
Plus, I never get tired of fridge abuse
I've watched every steak video he's made and I will continue to watch every steak video he makes in the future haha
You cried?
Dude, I followed your 10,000th Filet video to the letter several months ago, which is basically the same as this video and it blew my freaking mind how damn good it was. I can only imagine how much more elevated the flavor is with a Prime Ribeye. Can't wait to try. Love your channel !
Omg I love you! Just finished my steak, was following your recipe (and it was actually my first attempt at cooking steak, the meat was just some regular nice beef, not black angus or something). It was mind blowing, and my wife said it was the most delicious thing she had ever eaten. You are a rockstar, thank you!
Just made this and you are 100% correct, this is the best steak recipe I’ve ever made. Did everything to a tee. Amazing!! Thank you brother!
I just knew that fridge was going to *get* it after seeing how delicious the steak came out! Lol! This looks amazing Sonny, thank you!! 💖🥰
You explain things brilliantly, Sonny.
Top man 👍🏽
Just tried this method, and I’ve had one of the best steaks I’ve ever cooked myself. Still need some practice to get it up to a good steakhouse level, but already very happy with the results!
Thank you for pumping out all this awesome content! I can’t wait to get in the kitchen and try this one.
Been making my filets the way you do in other videos and best steak I’ve ever had. Been smoking stuff a lot and grilling lately, but when I hit the cast iron, I use your technique my friend.
same here! I've got some grilling type content coming out here soon as well
@@thatdudecancook can’t wait man🤝🏻
Love my cast iron pan as well, but steel does seem to give a better sear.
Never a dull vid dude, you've made me an awesome home cook, greatly appreciated.
I almost never eat out, and never order a steak if I do because I can cook it better than most places. I love ribeye, but recently bought chuck eye steak from Porter Road, one of the best steaks I have ever had. Great video as always!!
Chuck eye is basically discount ribeye! Love that cut so much
So much great information! Thank you!
This will be my project next week!😋
My friend, you continue to impress me. I’m a self proclaimed steak aficionado and I still learned something from this vid. Amazing! I’m a follower for life.
So beautifully cooked ribeye steak to perfection!.. I so love it! It seems so easy but for beginning to cook like me its a lot of things to learn before doing that.. Thank you for sharing this video !..
An american who can pronounce the word herb. Outstanding.
Love your videos... especially this one. I love the challenge of perfecting great beef at home. Pan, grill, smoker. Thanks for sharing your expertise. 🥩
The 80s montage music was a solid touch.
I will believe pulling the steak out ahead of time to temper it helps when you have a side-by-side comparison checking surface temperature, inner temperature, sear quality, and ease of cooking to proper doneness. Until then, I've tried both methods and they both make amazing steaks, so I'm going with the option that doesn't potentially have food sitting in the danger zone temperature range and takes less work.
First American I've ever heard pronounce "herb" correctly. Well done Sir!
Martha Stewart pronounces the “H”
Sounds like you might not get out much.
I've done this , shallots and garlic are amazing, the sauce you get in the end is mind-blowing
I actually had an extra "Choice" Filet in the fridge leftover from the weekend. It was only 1" thick so I was very careful not to over cook it. I stopped and got a shallot on the way home. I had thyme, "gaahlic" and everything else. They steak was simply fantastic! I have grilled and broiled Filet Mignons and Ribeye steaks for 40 years and this was really one of the best ever. I can't wait to try this on a 1 1/4" Ribeye. Thanks for the video!!!!!!!
Sonny you Absolutely Killed it on this one, And you’re Spot on about Learning to cook a Good Steak at home, you’ll never Wanna Drop A Bunch a Cash at A Steak House Cuz You’ll only be Disappointed! Nice Work Again Brother🔥🔥🥩🥩🥩🍺🍺
Here is my tip if you are in a rush. If your steak is stone cold, submerge it in warm water cca 40 °C in a large bowl and warm it up to room temperature. Obviously, make sure the steak is sealed in the bag. You are going from 4 °C to about 20-30 °C just a little bit faster than leaving it outside and waiting. The water will start cooling down so you should end up with a room temperature of that steak in about 5-7 minutes. Make sure the water is not too hot. Then do whatever you want with it.
We all do it, but careful with the heat, it will start the cooking process. Especially with fish and seafood.
Thank you for changing my steak experience. I never eat steak because it's either to dry or though or raw!! this tutorial is the best! now I eat steak every day and it tastes exactly how i like it!! fan for life
I just followed this video as closely as I could (I even have the same burner!) and it may possibly be the best steak I've ever made. Thanks Dude!
This has to be one of the greatest cooking videos I've ever watched. Perfection, Chef.
Thanks for helping me start my journey to steak mastery!
Thank you!
Another slam dunk video...job well done! Thanks for all the great information you share with us...much appreciated 🙏👍
My favorite cut is a flat iron, it's easy, it's cheaper, it's tender and has amazing beefy flavor
Finally learned something from a steak cooking video on YT. I'll be using the string idea and also the moving around the pan to get the extra heat - nice one.
Also, in the UK, all our steaks are grass fed, whereas in the US, it's mostly corn fattened, so the meat is different. Pepper will burn after about 6 mins - maybe sometimes add the pepper half way through to be safe..
Thank you man. I started my steak business with a lot more confidence watching your videos. I started with zero knowledge on how to cook them but I knew what good steak tasted like. Cheers to more videos! 🥳
P.S. Rosemary salt FTW!
I tried this for the first time and it was fantastic! Great video mate 👏
This is such a light bulb moment for me. I never thought to just break up the cooking process. The steak won't die. Its dead already! 😂
Way to go dude, made me hungry!!! Off to buy me some steaks 💪🏻
After watching the video with Guga I tried the on off on method with butter and it definitely works. However, I have nonstick pans (no oil needed) and am normally cooking two steaks so I just grab some tongs and do a flip & drag method through the butter while leaving the pan flat. I have been too lazy to try the shallots, garlic, and thyme since I have spice bottles :). If I am feeling like it I will make a mushroom cream sauce w/ worcestershire, dijon, garlic, etc., and it is one of my favorites.
Nonstick pans are not good for steaks, they're not designed for higher temperature cooking and release toxic chemicals at the kind of temperature you need to get a really good sear on your steak. Cast iron or stainless steel are much better for cooking the steak itself and for making a good pan sauce.
@@pandadoublexl while mostly true, there is actually a way to cook a steak in a nonstick pan, and that’s through the constant flipping method. Do give it a view in America’s Test Kitchen. I’m sure the presenter, Lan Lam, will help change your mind.
@@wiltmarlonelao you can cook a steak in a nonstick pan, but it simply will never be as good as the others mentioned, and it's toxic if you do it wrong (i.e. high heat). You also do not get the same levels of fond for a pan sauce.
A good stainless steel pan can be picked up cheaply, there's no reason to be using non stick. My preferred method is straight on to a BBQ/grill though.
THANK YOU for saying herbs properly.
Question:
One of the things that always bug me about your awesome steak videos is that you're only cooking one.
How do I cook THREE steaks at the same time for my family dinner?
YES!!!
3 pans, cook one, wait a few minutes, start the next and so on
My good man I must ask you - how can a simple person make four steaks the way you have done this for my family so we can eat at the same time? Perhaps cooking two in the same pan? Your steak looks fantastic but hard to accomplish for the family. Please let us know.
Broiler
Really good video, well explained, lots of experience and enthusiasm. Can’t really fake those!❤
The science he uses makes perfect sense and makes it easy for everyone to understand.
C'mon guys he crushed this steak. Let's bump up the likes for him.
I’m gonna do something I normally don’t and like it before I watch. Because, I know That Dude Can Cook! and I love steak! 👍🏼
no
Is that your criteria? I'm here for flying kicks to refrigerators
r u his burner or something
He pronounced the h in erbs.
I wanna know what it is but I'm scared to google flap meat.
Great recipe and instruction! I like how you mention “freedom” often in your videos. Great stuff!
I really appreciate this. Always looking for a super in depth to get the sear and perfect cook. I have yet to find a video that works but I know this method will lol
amazing video sonny, always love me a good steak video. a good tip for the homies out there that pick up a select grade steak (hardly any intramuscular fat) do the butter baste, it will still make the steak taste great if you're looking to cook a steak on a budget.
edit: also cooked a ny strip last night lol
Butter always saves the day
Just to add that if there’s hardly any fat in the steak, it’s better to go for rare than mid rare.
Nailed it. My father was extremely sick for over a year, could not eat and lost a lot of weight. The first meal I cooked for him when he was starting to feel better was a basted steak, fondant potatoes, and basted asparagus. It was better than nearly any restaurant I had been to. Anyone can do this.
I have used this technique over 10 times and they have all turned out perfectly. Great recipe.
LOVE your videos, Sonny! Always full of great info and lots of fun! The new 'look' is great, too ☺
Here's to MANY more years of you educating and entertaining!! 🍻 (and 'fridge slaying 😂😂)
Hey Dude! This was a fun watch! Congrats to you and your team!
Out here in the real world, my family can no longer afford to eat steak much, especially a beauty like the one that you played around with in this youtube, but I did enjoy watching you enjoy yourself. And when we do next splurge on doing a steak on the grill, I will do it in exactly the same way that you did, but with baked beans in the skillet and some fresh herbs and slices of fresh tomatoes! Happy cooking!
Might I suggest one of the cheaper more unknown cuts as listed in the video for a very tasty alternative my friend.
Look for deals (also the chuckeye that dude mentioned is super cheap). I found a standing rib roast on sale at Publix last month for 30$. That's 4 whole 1.5inch thick ribeye steaks, plus bones for stock. 7$ for a huge piece of steak if you happen to find a sick deal like this. If you go to a Mexican grocery you can usually find picanha for super cheap.
Picanha is a great choice to cook.
Next election Michael, choose your president with the same discretion.
my steak is 300% better since I started following you, and the heat on and off is by far the best way to cook a great med-rare steak.
I have 2 requests though:
I cook for a family of four, we all love steak and each enjoys a sizable piece, any advice on how to cook and serve multiple pieces at the same time?
second, it's summer dude, through us a grill video, please.
Unless you’re proficient at multi tasking and have pans large enough to cook 2 steaks per, you are better off searing each steak and then putting them all in the oven until your desired temp.
You can put them out at rare and then baste with butter in a couple pans as well.
I got some grilling recipes on the way no worries! and I would sear each steak first and then baste them all at the same time using 2 pans to feed a family of four
Thanks for sharing this. I learned a few tricks today! 😊
I agree! I would never put a cold steak in a cold pan. This recipe is amazing,thank you!
7 years ago I figured out how to make steak and haven’t been to a steakhouse since. Hopefully everyone can experience that.
Indeed. I've only eaten steak from a restaurant twice in the last year or two and both times weren't even planned that way. In the meantime I've made a good 50+ steaks at home and keep getting better at different cuts/grades.
I rarely get steak out myself after learning my own way of cooking it to my liking. Much cheaper and to me tastes better.
Tempering is very important. Especially if you’re using standard nonstick or steel kitchen pans. Cast iron is a little more forgiving as you can get it hotter and it retains more heat simply because of the mass of metal. You should definitely be seasoning with salt whilst tempering to draw out moisture which is also an enemy of good crust. On heat off heat is also an effective method. Basting is also key. And… Never, never skip resting. Good job sir.
Luv the tech talk. And sgt Gilbert
This looks totally awesome 👌 cannot wait to try it. You are the best on TH-cam ❤
Take Sonny’s advice. I’ll never not make a steak like this. You can add steps too. I use a meatpress myself, but besides that I’ve not changed much except experiments with seasoning the steak. Sonny knows. Trust this man.
Delicious! Can I suggest one thing do a video on making clarified butter and have all of us fans keep a tub of it in our fridges.
The sequence of adding the basting items in is something new I'm taking away from this. Thanks for that
Some great tips and the video was rolling on a wave.
Thank you.
Thanks. Can't wait to try these new tips
Please explain the refrigerator torture! It catches me off guard and cracks me up every time! 🤣🤣
This has been the most condensed, informative and well put together video about cooking "steak", not to mention it's direction and camera-shot usefulness in terms of being able to internalize the information delivered. This should be on a damn wikipedia page!
Been cooking your edition of how to make a steak this last year and it is by far my favorite. Just made a ribeye the other night in fact
Just tried this. Probably one of the best steaks I've ever had. Thanks.
You deserve every bit of this like my friend.. bravo.
Fantastic technique. Thank you for sharing
I am beyond proud that I have found an American who pronounces the H in herbs. The H is there for a damn reason. Thank God you pronounce it
I agree about tempering the steak. In my mind colder steaks tighten up a bit when they hit the heat.
I used these tips and my steaks came out the best they ever have!! Thank you!!
Yes! Seasoning 10-15 minutes before has turned out better for me when cooking like thatdudecancook
I watch a lot of TH-cam videos. I never ever comment on them. I followed this video to the T. Awesome!! Beyond!! Thank you so much.
You technique is intriguing. Im definitely motivated to try this….and I’m going to this week.
Now that was a bloody exceptional tutorial.
I love watching your videos!!! I always learn something.
I did make a ribeye like this the other night, with a little modification. I didn’t make your rosemary salt, but I have a lime-cilantro salt & used Zalt; a salt I bought in Africa. It was great!!
I had some left over & made fajitas 🥰
It's also great the next morning with eggs and hashbrown potatoes😍
I've been making them this way since 1973, learned from a master chef from Hungary..I was just 19
Just made it - definitely the best steak I've cooked. Thanks
Great vid Sonny! I’ve learned so much from your vids. Thanks!
Perfection. Absolutely nailed it
Tried it!!! It was amazing🔥🔥😊
Oh, oh my, oh my goodness! I just did exactly what you said and showed, to a rib-eye steak and I have never tasted a steak better than this in my life. This was my absolute first attempt at ever cooking a steak. I can’t believe this! 🤯 That was so easy! Thank you so much!!! I’m doing this at least once a week.
Now imagine cooking a wagyu ribeye like this.
@@keshavrao212 That will be next for sure.
This was absolutely money. Best steak I’ve ever made and I only used NY strip. Tres magnifique!!! 👌🏾
Love it! I've been doing pan fried steaks for awhile now and just started using your rosemary salt!! Question: I use a cast iron skillet and do it in my grill to avoid smoking up my kitchen! Curious what temperature you recommend getting your skillet to before putting the steaks on, I typically try to get mine somewhere around 600 degrees, does that seem about right?
Excellent video! Ordering that pan!!!❤❤❤
@thatdudecancook Love your videos. As a Canadian living in the US I get a kick out of your comments about the subtle differences between the US and other countries in the cooking world. I was wondering about the best way to put heat back into a big cut of steak, like a ribeye, or a tri-tip after a long resting period, without ruining your cooking job. You are my favourite online cooking tutorial!
When he started beating down the fridge LMFAO!!! I kinda actually felt that 🤣😭 looks great!
Made this today and yep *chefs kiss*, it was delicious!! 🤤 Tried to make steak before, it never tasted like from a steakhouse and I always thought they had better / different meat… turns out, doing it like this is the key!! Amazing!!
I work at one of the steakhouses in P.S. No time to do this process my friend. I could use one of those pans at home. great video! big hug. Thank you.
