Do a rib roast instead? Set your oven to 250, use a thermometer to watch the internal temp, when it hits 115 pull it, set your oven to 450 and let it fully heat, put the roast back in for 10-15 minutes. You will have a nice crusty prime rib roast that's uniformly mid-rare throughout.

If you wanted to dry age it, you should leave it whole as well, because there will be some trimming if you're looking at a week or more of drying. You should also always cook a steak that's come up to temp. A cold steak is going to drop pan temp and cause vapor pooling, and you won't get that perfect crust. My preferred method for steaks is to sear them off and finish in the oven if I'm doing a dinner party.

Chemmy posted:Modernist Cuisine suggests putting a frozen steak in a low oven and searing after for presentation, I don't think there are a lot of hard and fast rules for steaks. Don't remember reading this, might have skimmed over it. But even then, that's just not practical.

Chemmy posted:How is it not practical? You put a steak in the oven for an hour and then sear. It's a workaround for people without immersion circulators. It isn't for me, I come home after a 10-12 hour day, I'm certainly not waiting an hour for a steak if I didn't eat at work. e: also, the oven in my apartment is poo poo and setting it at 150F results in a temp around 190F.

marshalljim posted:Yeah, they do. I still sort of wonder what the point is of searing first with any of these methods that aim at a consistent internal doneness. They don't address that. Sear first because searing last will rapidly increase the internal temp of the meat. That method's cool and all, but the average clientele will think that their steak is underdone because the chewiness is missing from a traditional method.d

Did you marinate it at all? Ostrich is really, really lean, and doesn't have too much flavor of it's own. Give it a good 8 hour marinade, and don't go over mid-rare(I prefer as rare as possible) with it, and you should be golden.

Sear one at a time, and you should only need 30secs per side in a fuckoff hot pan. Finish in oven on a sheet pan.

Yeah, or, I can dry a ribeye in my fridge for a few hours, pull it out, S&P it, sear it, and throw it in the oven.

Holding your chicken breast at 145 for 27min has the same reduction as chicken at 165 for 15secs. Iirc it is possible to completely eliminate salmonella as low as 127F, it just takes time.

If you crank the heat on the busted flat top at work(which is getting replaced, huzzah!) you can get it up around 8-900. I could probably cook a 3/4in steak on there in 2min.

I know my triply cuisinart 13in can reach at least 450 on a coil. I dropped a few tablespoons of sesame oil in the pan to do some stir fry and instant ignition. So, a cast iron pan could probably hit 6-700. I wouldn't recommend it because home vent hoods suck.

Quality of meat can play a factor. I can get better meat at work than you can at home, for example. Unless you're going to dry age a whole prime or wagyu striploin at home, then more power to ya.

Pork to 150F?! Nothing wrong with Ducasse method, but I prefer freezer steak and a 200F oven. Season steak, freeze steak, sear one side, pop into oven with a T of butter, pull at 110F, carry over gets me just under 115, and devour.

Steve Yun posted:On the other hand, I wonder, has anyone tried just using a minifridge to do the same thing at home for a lot cheaper? I have a wine fridge that I've modified to be a cold smoker/charcuterier/thing. I could definitely age a half ribeye in there, and the thing only cost $150. My $300 mini fridge would be even better, but that's where my beer goes and I don't want to tinker with my beer fridge.

Sear the whole loins and finish in a low oven, like 200-250F until you reach your desired internal temp. Alternatively do the same with seared steaks, just put them on a wire rack, with space in between so they don't get crowded.

Half the time I try to sear it stove-top, no matter how good a job I do cooking the steak I always make a ton of smoke in the process. I think I cooked it in the oven once but I can't remember how I did so. Season your steak, freeze it, sear

Drifter posted:Medium rare is what, 140F on the inside? I'd suggest pulling it at 8 degrees less than the temp you want. So, 132F. That generally works for most small-ish meat cuts. A big ol' potroast'll probably do it at 10 or 12. Rare - 120-125 Mid-rare - 130-135 Medium - 140 Mid-well - 150 Well - gently caress you , I won't do it, get out of my house/restaurant.
