Cast iron skillet on a crawfish burner. You’re welcome

Don't stop now. I still have four hours and twenty minutes before I leave work.

No, it's using technique to maximize the maillard reaction and amount of meat at the perfect medium rare temp.

I did a ribeye in the smoker for about 40-45 minutes the other day, then seared the piss out of it. Was perfectly pink with a great crust.
The steaks I have had from the sous vide dont have the flavor to me, but the people that did them also suck at cooking other things so I can't write them off yet.
I put the cast iron over a crawfish burner too. Talk about hot

Not really. Those aren't steaks. That's thinly sliced beef.

This is retarded and you've shown your lack of cooking knowledge/skill quite well in here.

Nothing "wrong" with that or reverse sear method. All three are ways of gently cooking the steak all the way through so that it's a consistent temperature and the gradient effect is minimized before finishing with high heat. Sous vide is just the most controlled and trouble free version of this. Seasoning before immersion gives the meat plenty of flavor, but a lot will come from the finish method used. I alternate between the grill and smoking hot cast iron with butter depending on what I feel like fooling with, both will change the final flavor a lot.

Sous vide vs. reverse sear vs. pan fry vs. microwave vs. shoot it to the sun vs. eat the shite raw.
I think that just about covers this thread.

You know how to grill a steak. You'd have to be in a coma to frick that up.

not hardly
how do you imagine heat transfers through a piece of meat?
now, imagining that, do you see the difference that depth of the steak (we call it thickness) makes to that transfer?

The mayonnaise sear thread was great. This board acts like it's a sin to put anything other than salt and pepper on a steak, but then you get some of the same people talking about how great of a sear you get by slathering your steak in mayo

Now imagine what y’all claim a sous vide to do and think of it in regards to this test
Why was the sous vide overcooked and less juicy compared to the frozen? If anything, a sous vide should shine even more on a thinner cut
