    You do have it wrong. Your chart says 152 for medium and 132 for medium well. Celsius looks correct so I’m guessing just a typo.

    There's also confusion between the temperature when you remove the steak from the pan and the final rested temperature. That could also explain the differences

    • @All7777Fever
      @All7777Fever ปีที่แล้ว +20

      That's exactly why Andy pulls a mid-rare at 46. The internal temp will continue to rise a couple of degrees when resting. 'Internet temp' is not wrong as that's the actual temp of the doneness, but not accommodating for the meat to continue to cook slightly after it comes off the heat.

      Exactly. Depending on how you cook it, a steak (especially a fatty cut like a ribeye) can increase as much as 15-20 degrees F. This isn't a big issue with reverse sear, as the temp will usually only rise about 5 degrees F. But if you cook the steak in a high temp pan or directly over coals, you will overshoot your desired temperature if you don't pull it early.

    I agree Chef Andy. I've migrated on the steak doneness spectrum over the years from well to medium and now, medium rare which I absolutely love. Medium rare has to give some rareness otherwise it's not medium rare. The 52°c steak is definitely giving medium as opposed to medium rare

      Thats the pain of working at a steakhouse. People say they want medium rare but what they really want is medium. They have been lied to their whole lives which leads to much confusion in the kitchen. Rare is part of medium rare meaning it's still partially raw. If you don't want any raw/rare you want medium.

  • @Bozza36

I live in the middle of cattle country and meat is ridiculously priced! Ugh! I know they are over charging because they can do all the processing locally and then it doesn't have to be shipped or frozen or anything! We have a couple of locally owned meat stores and they sell for more than the grocery stores. They are raising their own cattle to butcher and doing it all themselves. It should be cheaper because they take out all the middlemen, right? Wrong! They think they can charge more and call it a boutique butcher shop!🤨

    Nice job chef. Thanks for the correction, the ranges more than fair. I'd like to point out the range of tolerance between Fahrenheit and Celsius. Having spent my life in the states I'm more familiar with Fahrenheit and know that just a couple degrees changes the quality of doneness. 2 degrees Celsius moves almost half way across the margins of doneness. That said erring on the side of "rarer" allows for an opportunity to correct in the case of misunderstanding between guest and kitchen. Good looking steaks!

    I cook most of my steaks to medium. I use a wood fire when cooking and reverse sear each time. Doing it this way I don't generally see a loss in tenderness, but the wood fire has more time to develop the flavors I want.

    You're correct because the heat from the outside seeps in during the rest period.

    Ooof this is tough, the internet one is what I consider almost medium, yours is what I consider medium rare, but probably more on the rare side.

    I guess it depends on what you’re actually expecting when you order or cook to medium rare. If I’m ordering and paying good money I’d always prefer it to be slightly rarer than overcooked so i’m not disappointed!

    Depends on the cooking method, basting with butter will have greater carry over cook

  • @rhegafd
    @rhegafd ปีที่แล้ว

    You sir are 100% correct. I pull them off at 110F and after 5-10 mins of resting under foil they are a perfect Mid-Rare.

    Fuck yes mate. I've even done 50c for a medium but a long warm rest then. 52c MAX for a medium

    I’ve been cooking MR to 125 for years and always thought I was doing something wrong because it always comes out M. Now I know. Thanks Andy.

  • @neilarmour4497
    @neilarmour4497 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Im with you... mostly the info on the internet is overly conservative. If you cook a steak to 48C its going to be pushing the upper limit of medium rare, every time. Then carry over will take it to medium, ie. ruined (if you were shooting for rare)

  • @chrisprendergast5477

    If i’ve asked for medium-rare i’d be pretty happy with either, but i’d be looking for something in-between these two ideally.

  • @MisterPotski
    @MisterPotski ปีที่แล้ว

    Ive been cooking in restraunts for over a decade...
    You are more correct, the temps I follow and always have are the following
    Rare - 105f
    Med rare - 120f
    Med - 130f
    Med well - 140/145f
    Well done - 160f
    I always allow the steak to rest 5 minutes before plating.

  • @Louis8rings
    @Louis8rings ปีที่แล้ว

    I believe most chefs see it the same way. I prefer slightly past medium rare so when at very good steakhouses, i order medium.

  • @NotKimiRaikkonen
    @NotKimiRaikkonen ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I'm not picky, as long as the steak comes out anywhere between those two, I'm eating it.

      What about a ribeye? You wouldn't want to have that like the one on the left. Unrendered beef fat isn't fun.

  • @MrDeathChicken
    @MrDeathChicken ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you, Chef Andy.
    I think part of that too is carryover cooking. It might be medium rare when it leaves the pan at 125 but you HAVE to rest a steak, and that 3-10 minutes (depending on cut and thickness) the steak will continue to cook, thus taking it to the medium side of medium rare.
    Its like eggs, if its done in the pan its over done on the plate.

    You absolutely right i always cook my stake for 55 as i saw online for medium and it's a bit over

  • @godzillaraiden4203
    @godzillaraiden4203 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think both aren't wrong,Its just that every chef has their own way and Method to make a medium rare steak. I think its just that some people disagree with your style which isn't much of a big deal so i think its alright for you to do it your own way

  • @brodybentley6596
    @brodybentley6596 ปีที่แล้ว

    Either looks great. My biggest concern with a steak is just that the fat renders enough. It could be rare as long as that fat is thoroughly loose

  • @TristanBehrens
    @TristanBehrens ปีที่แล้ว

    In my opinion I would say that the most widely accepted definitions would be medium rare = pink throughout whereas rare = pink with a warm red centre (as opposed to bleu, with a cool red centre).
    I would say that Medium, being the midpoint, would be 50/50 between pink and grey/brown.
    Therefore I would definitely say that your temperatures are a bit low, however I would definitely rather eat the one at 115/46.

  • @KermitxSmash
    @KermitxSmash ปีที่แล้ว

    I think the numbers often found on the internet are influenced by people trying not to get sued for causing food poisoning incidents. They're listing the highest possible temps you can cook a steak to still get medium-rare or medium, while being reasonably certain you've killed off any parasites or pathogens. This isn't really something you have to worry about when you know the quality and source of your meat. Personally if I were buying a lower grade cut from a mass livestock operation I would feel better having cooked it to 130 F than 115 F.

  • @pixelrancher

    I'd prefer your medium-rare but being Wagyu, I'd be happy with either.
    They're both making my mouth water.

  • @LawrencePonsford
    @LawrencePonsford ปีที่แล้ว

    I agree with Andy. I kept overcooking my steaks so I left the thermometer in after I finished cooking. The temp keeps rising even after you take it off the heat
