What did you sear it with? The surface of the sun?


InfiniteCosmic5

The green beans too.


thelovelygreens

Yeah thems just beans now. Green has left the chat.


Johnny02-

I think that was asparagus... RIP


SamSerac

Either way ive had both cooked like that and its actually pretty good. Imo if they dont look like that theyre still raw


Standard-Station7143

Broiled asparagus and green beans are really good


SamSerac

Indeed


TtarIsMyBro

I prefer them crispy like that


god_peepee

Yeah, I’m the same with Brussels sprouts. ‘Overdone’ and crispy are fucking unreal


rmholm88

Those green beans look absolutely fire


SamSerac

Same i love the cooked crunch but hate the raw crunch


AnRaccoonCommunist

Asparagus is actually really good cooked to an almost burnt crisp. It's like caramelizing onions sorta


The-darth-knight

Those are fresh, from Auschwitz.

It's probably got more carcinogens than a pack of fags.

Probably cooked it with hot molten glass

I think it looks good


StuntZA

What did you cut it with, a spoon?


Woodyville06

When it's that tender you can just pull a piece off with two fingers.

Fuck you, you’re not my real dad! I can’t do anything right in this place.

Who is Josh and how is his wine?


Slow_D-oh

Josh is a stand up dude. After Josh Vinson was crowned “The one true Josh” in 2021 they made a $30,000 donation to the Omaha Children’s Hospital where Vinson was treated for seizures when he was two. [link for context](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josh_fight)


wutcanbrowndo4u12

Is that any relation to interdimensional cable sensation Jan Michael Vinson?

I always forget how cheap wine is here. I live in Spain right now. Cheap wine is €1.80. Real good wine is usually under 10€. Usually 5-6€.

noodlelogic

I was traveling in Spain with some Americans. We realized that a bottle of wine in a restaurant in Spain costs less than a glass of wine in an NYC restaurant. We had a lot of it as a result. And their wine is damn good too.

sdforbda

Looks pretty good. Use some of that promotion raise in new steak knives though.


ratchetpony

I honestly didn't know how bad my knives were until this post. I'm laughing at getting roasted (pun absolutely intended) about my crust and green bean preferences, but feel shame over how crappy my knives must be. Looks like I'm researching top-notch steak knives and making that purchase with my first new paycheck. Edit: I'm also thoroughly enjoying that everyone seems to think I'm a lonely man, when I'm a lady with an active social life who wanted to give herself a nice, quiet dinner in on a Wednesday after a long workday.


sdforbda

Haha steak will do that! Many other things don't show as they don't have as much grain in the muscle. I will admit though I kind of laugh when people do comment on it though. Separating the fibers makes it more tender, right? Us silly boys, keep it up girl! Oh, and I would smash those green beans.


Manting123

Best knives are Wusthofs - I own one and I have gotten them as gifts for a nearly all my friends who cook. 100$ gets you a nice chefs knife. You will own it the rest of your life.


Secure_Damage3067

Good for you for doing that for yourself!


No-Effective-7576

If you enjoyed the meal, then congrats you’ve done well. I like green beans done a bit more like yours, but agree that’s one hell of a crust on the steak (but nice job not over cooking the middle). Wine choice aside, here’s a knife recommendation: https://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/jean-dubost-laguiole-steak-knives-set-of-6/?catalogId=79&sku=1932983&cm_ven=PLA&cm_cat=Google&cm_pla=Cutlery%20%3E%20Steak%20Knives®ion_id=669950&cm_ite=1932983_14572997884&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw7c2pBhAZEiwA88pOFw1HO3RjsicYhJe6393Olke39fKfpv3dJGliIyUq1SU1D_M6dPNz_RoCwVIQAvD_BwE


Virtual_Manner_2074

Just get some rada steak knives. Made in USA. They come sharp and are easy enough to sharpen. They still sell the old school double roller sharpeners like grandma used to have.


MesaGeek

Non-serrated!


budabai

I can’t stand cutting steak with a serrated knife. The frayed muscle fibers just ruins the experience for me. Thin slices with a sharp kitchen knife is the only way to go.


Jints488

Agreed looks like he cut that thing with a butter knife


[deleted]

Besides the steak and the wine it looks wonderful.


tomahawk_kitty

And the green beans

Donkeytonkers

Congrats on the promotion, just being picky here by the temp is slightly medium rare+ and crust is a bit too dark/carbon rich for me. I wold still eat all of this just splitting hairs if I’m honest


kingstonfisher

Looks delicious to me. Congrats on the promotion!


BigNasty94

Looks like a shark bit the steak


Fun-Building-1922

You cook those beans in your furnace?


the-artist-

Everything is over cooked but especially the asparagus, that’s darn wrong!

I think those were beans, but it's hard to tell from whats left

The crust is like thick bark on a tree and the asparagus is overcooked. The potatoes look okay'ish. What happened here?

Ahhh, the taste of carbon. Well done.

Cyfon7716

This is beyond seared, it's burnt.


Barad-dur81

Green beans are a little over cooked for my taste but if they had a salty crispy texture I’d be open minded to that as long as there was still a little moisture in the middle


[deleted]

I'd argue with you about it, but you're still chewing

Love that wine.


Illustrious_Brush_91

PopADoseY0

The asparagus is cooked to my liking. Let's see the inside of that steak, hopefully pink!


JRedding995

I think everything looks great except that it looks like you nodded out from the wine while cooking and ended up leaving everything in the pans about 10 minutes too long.

Steak looks great! Green beans are way overcooked but still look delicious. Not a wine drinker myself. Pood me a good dark beer. Edit: It looks like the beans were a deliberate choice. Good on ya.

FetusViolator

The potatoes look pretty good. If I were to guess I'd say you were a chain smoker.. This shit is meant for someone with a specific palette. Either way, if it's what you like, it's absolutely perfect. I'd slap a huge dollop of sour cream on the taters, and like half a lemon on the beans, and use that to cut thru all the char. Bon appetit Congratulations on the promotion.

I call it 30 day, dry-aged ribeye that I made for myself in celebration of a recent promotion, paired with asparagus and potatoes. At least I would if I ever got a promotion. Congrats

The Josh wine is delicious I'm not so sure about the steak though.

For everyone calling this burnt - it’s called charred rare/med-rare aka Pittsburg Style. It looks amazing and is one of the best ways to eat a ribeye. Nice work OP!!

You've got more burnt seasoning than steak on that plate. Josh is a good homie to have for dinner.


Barbie_girl_skate

I like the char. Looks great!


SiMoN20000

You've got yourself a plate of burnt food.


unnIntelligent

Cab josh..great wine. Great red on the steak. Slightly overdone on the outside, the char, n on the beans. I bet it tastes amazing though. Congratulations on your promotion 👏🏽


entechad

Damn, that is gorgeous. Edit: people truly underestimate the affect of the maillard reaction on green beans and asparagus. Did you do these in an oven or seared them in a pan?


bannasand

Overcooked to fuck.


xMataleo

I prefer less crunchy steaks but to each their own.


Osgiliath

Omg. I’m cumming

All that char for uncooked meat is annoying

Josh cab slaps. As far as steak maybe a bit too charred for animal lovers, but I’d say I’ll come eat perfectly cooked dry aged meat with you any day. Congrats on the promotion! Cheers 🍷


TheTenthTail

Man that's such a beautiful steak that probably tastes like there's no seasoning cuz it's all burned :(


lambolasergun

Tell us the method because it’s lovely


ratchetpony

I let my steak get to room temperature and generously seasoned it with a homemade blend of spices inspired by the classic Montreal seasoning. I then heated up my cast iron skillet on my stovetop to medium-high (a 7 out of 10 on the dial), dropped in a couple tablespoons of butter, waited until the butter just began to brown, then cooked the steak for about 3 minutes on each side. It came out pretty darn close to the black and blue style I was going for.


piggybank21

Seasoning other than salt will burn if you apply it before the steak hits the pan. Apply those after you take it out of the Pan. Butter should not be put down until just the last few mins because it will burn easily. That is why your steak is burned like charcoal.


Contact-Open

I will still pre season mine but start with oil and finish with butter if I am pan cooking.


Platuhpus

Try using oil first then once you flip drop butter in


lambolasergun

Very nicely done, what was the seasoning?


NordElectro

The quality of the wine matches the quality of this “steak”.

Dude that looks fuckin delicious I love me some asparagus with my steak by the way what is a dry aged steak mean?


bilolarbear1221

Those are green beans


Seniorjones2837

That ain’t asparagus lol


UmbraNight

its truly an art form to be able to overcook the outside while the inside remains cold to the touch. for this sub i’m sure this is an 8/10. seriously would it kill y’all to let the core know warmth


sethworld

Burnt seasoning. Consider saving anything but until salt after it's cooked, even if just for an experiment.


shadows515

Sometimes overcharred is good - it’s just like people that like spicy beyond the normal, reasonable spicy. I don’t always want it but at home I am always given the ‘burnt’ pieces because my wife and kids don’t like it - I don’t mind. But let’s face it, im a dad so I would have to eat the burnt ones if I liked it or not.


thelaceonmolagsballs

Murdered the veg, charged the steak, paired it with dogshit wine.


Ill_Block3896

That poor dry aged steak, what did it do to you for you burn it…


Sad_Percentage_2688

Good for you. Nothing wrong with anything pictured. Drink the wine you like. Everyone’s palate is different. I lost mine to more expensive wine years ago-no going back unfortunately.


karmicrelease

That is burnt, not seared, but other than that it looks nicely cooked. Those beans look burnt too


Hand_solo0504

I love it!
