More than 30 years ago, I worked in a Chinese restaurant the master chef always threw a few pieces of frozen steaks to the Chinese roast pork BBQ oven for kitchen workers as dinner. The results were better than the most famous steak houses.

I like a little steak with my salt too

That was crazy. Perfect medium rare. Love the editing too. Good job.

Thanks CJ! I was pretty surprised about the cook too. I think I'm going to do more of these experiment videos to compare and contrast different cooking methods.

I have never been a fan from cooking steak from frozen, but this technique looks worth trying. It can't possibly be worse. Thanks for the great video, and I appreciate the lesson! Happy grilling, everyone!

I remember way back when my wife and I first got married, we had one of those trucks run by the house that sells steaks, chicken, etc. We decided to buy some stuff and the guy that sold us the meat told us the best way to grill the steaks was from frozen, which I indeed did try. As I recall, it did really come out good, but that was back in the day when I did not know jack about grilling, and certainly did not have an appreciation for steak cooked to medium rare. Never tried from frozen again. May have to do so some time.

I especially liked the "recap" at the end. Nice job!

Just tried it it certainly works, if for whatever reason that's your best option given whatever circumstances. Reverse sear is still my personal preference

Looking forward to trying it.

@@TheNothingChanneI You're right, it depends on the heat, but have you seen any thermometer around? I did not. And yet you can see if the meat remained a bit too rare. This did. Even considering that frozen steaks will have the least grey area under the crust and will have much much more pink, but this is simply rare not medium rare. A few more minutes and it would be medium rare, but those who like it rare (like me) it is not a bad thing. :D

Worked perfectly thanks

Looks delicious, now I need to try this!

It's really an amazing technique ....works stove top too with some adjustments.......Only thing I do is melt some butter with smashed garlic and maybe rosemary and squish of lemon as the final 'sauce' to serve. it might take a bit longer on the grill, but there's zero prep time.

Been cooking perfect steak AND chicken breasts for years from frozen. In the broiler on a preheated iron pan. Just have to know the distances for your cuts, and oven/pan setup. The chicken gets fully sealed and locks in everything. Finishes during the wait.

Dead cold rare....

I tried it once and it was the best steak I’ve had.

going to try this with a frozen ribeye now. I did half a huge frozen ribeye yesterday and it worked out well, but I smoked it for a while first. I think I'm still going to give it a little smoke, and maybe dry brine it briefly before cooking but I want to go for similar results. Grey is never what I'm shooting for in a steak.

The indirect heat is very confusing. Do you turn down the cooking side to low and move the steaks to the other side which has never been turned on?

@BBQandBottles

2 жыл бұрын

That’s right James. No heat on the side you put your steak on with the burner opposite your steaks providing the heat.

newbie grill question: do I only need to turn on the searing station on my grill to reach the 700 degrees? And after I'm ready for indirect heat, do I just leave the searing station on, or do i turn on the opposite grill burners? What's the exactly steps I should do to cook the steak like he did in the video? Thanks!

I’d only use the seat station for the initial sear. Then turn it off and turn on the opposite burner.

Nope. A steak doesnt stop cooking after it's removed from the grill. When rested a steak temp will raise an additional 10 degrees

I like my steak medium rare but to be honest, to me this looks a little more towards the rare side than medium rare. I'd certainly still eat it as it looks good. I'm doing this tonight, my BBQ is on high to get up to 700 and the steaks are near frozen (been out of the freezer for about 20 minutes so I'll check them for temp a bit earlier than 15 minutes).

@@BBQandBottles To be honest and not to tout my own horn but they turned out awesome and I'm a terrible cook. I think your timing is what helped me the most. Normally I put thawed steaks on the BBQ and flip it once and they're either too rare or too overdone I rarely get them right. This time I did 90 seconds on 3 of the flips for the grill marks and 2 minutes on one of the flips because I got busy in the kitchen doing something else) and then 10 minutes over to the side of the BBQ and they were just a bit pink in the center like we like it, but best of all they were more tender than any other New York steak I've cooked over my lifetime. The only thing I need to work on is the flare ups. One of the steaks was sightly charred, which fortunately I don't mind, I rather like that flavor on the edge fat. In the future I'll be keeping more Steaks in the freezer so when I forget to defrost chicken or pork I have a goto for a nice dinner.

Put more salt 😂

You need better seasoning than that plus it's not cooked enough I grill steaks all the time. I would just put the frozen steak in the fridge and cook it the next day it would taste better

@Birdylockso

I have looked at many videos on KZread that compare grilling/frying a frozen steak vs. refrigerated one. In most cases, the frozen steak tasted better. It was a surprising result for most experimenters as well. So, you should give that a try, before judging it. Also, most people, me included, prefer the simple seasoning like black pepper and salt to reveal the true flavor of a steak. It's really just a personal taste.

I need to try this experiment.

What temperature should you go with on the inside of the steak if you want it to be medium finish?

Привет, очень понравился Ваш канал! Классные рецепты! Давайте дружить!

Starting steak at room temperature is big myth. Another myth to break, do not continually turn steaks.

If that's medium rare then what's rare?? Still mooing?!

The whole resting thing I understand. But doesn’t it get cool sitting there for 10 minutes?

What’s the stupid smoke at the bottom of the screen??

You want some steak with your salt?

cold rare

This is sooo terrible..., are you making jerky on your gas grill?

No way I would eat it. That steak was still mooing. Not even close to being done.

Tanks for asking/clarifying. You should have it down for 90 seconds, then rotate it 90 degrees (so you get the grill marks) and let it go for another 90 degrees, then flip the steak and let it go for 90 second, then rotate it 90 degrees and let it go for a final 90 seconds. Make sense?

THE MEAT IS STILL RAW! ANOTHER THING: the internal temperature of cooked meat should be at least 165°F. for 15 minutes, before eating, otherwise you risk getting a bacteria like a form of food poisoning, salmonella, and in this case- tomaine poisoning.

Why are you trying to mislead people to think that that's safe to eat? Those vacuum packed steaks are also meat remnants from butcheries, glued together with meat glue or Agar-Agar. So it looks like you have a real piece of steak, but it's scraps and bits of meat tissue chemically stuck together and named as a steak. It is the same stuff that dog treats and canned dog food is made from, just labeled as human food. No one should ever eat under cooked meat as you say to do in this video -SHAME ON YOU!!!
