I want to take a second to thank Guga (and a handful of other cooking channels, but definitely mainly Guga as of late) for making every steak shot so tantalizingly beautiful, that I ended up impulsively cooking my first steak just yesterday. I'd grown up eating steaks exclusively well-done and drowned in steak sauce (really since that's what literally everyone else around me was doing as I was growing up, so I figured that that was the "best" way to do it; fully cooked and then sauced), so I pan-seared a strip steak (seasoned with sea salt, freshly-ground black pepper, and garlic powder) to medium-rare, basted it with butter before plating it for a little bit, and then cut it up with some grilled asparagus and a rice/grain mix for sides. When I tell you that the very first bite made me have to physically pause for a minute and reprocess everything that I'd ever known about steak... I'm not exaggerating. I didn't even have to put steak sauce or any other type of sauce/dressing on it. I just ate it as-is since it was that juicy and flavorful on its own, and I could feel my soul doing backflips with every bite that I took of it. I finished my plate, and then instantly got hit with the strongest food-based "...what now?" moment of my life, since it's been so long since tasting food has been that much of an experience for me. Sadly, I don't think that I'll ever get a chance to try dry-aging or sous vide cooking anything, but hey, that's what this channel network is here for, to hear what it's like. Thanks for all of the amazing content.

I know this is a minor component in your basic salt, pepper, and garlic powder line-up but I would really like to see a Guga test between store bought garlic powder versus homemade dehydrated garlic powder. So many of the flavors of garlic are lost within hours, days, and weeks of dehydrated garlic that it reminds me of the reason of why freshly ground black pepper is a must. I love garlic. It is so flavor dynamic based on how you cut it, how long you let it sit (fresh), how you dehydrate it, etc. Garlic powder is one of those things that stands out often when I cook for other people because they say how garlicky my food is both for better and worse much like they say how strong paprika or cayenne flavors are in my dishes (because I dehydrate my own and often from what I have grown myself.) So, yeah. I'd love to see: control, store bought garlic powder, homemade used within a few days, homemade a few weeks, and maybe a composite butter with garlic (unfair advantage because of the butter but whatever.)

Have you tried to dry age using Italian Green Pesto? I was thinking there are often a umami flavours in Pesto, including parmesan and anchovies, plus you have basil providing aromatics. I think it would be really interesting to see if the aromatics of the basil penetrates the meat and if the umami flavour comes through.

Guga my man, there are a lot of great KZread cooking channels out there, but yours is by far the best.

The way angeo said running yolk thts wht i was like when guga cut it and showed it before they all tested i love tht kind

Tip from using these "grills" while camping: *Get another Foil Tray to use as a cover.* The $5 grill has air vents in it, so you won't suffocate the charcoal and trapping the heat will let everything cook much, much faster. Faster cooking = less Charcoal flavor and less toughness.

My take away here is that with the cheap grill, the cheaper meats seem to do well enough. But if you have the means to buy a pricey wagu steak, spring for at least a small real charcoal grill.

Would love to see a cook-off series of only the best side dishes from 2022!

Hey Guga! 👋🏼 since you tried cooking on a cheap grill, mind if you try cooking them on flat stone? I've been wondering how different the taste would be from a typical grill! Thanks!

Guga - can you show us why a non-disposable grill is better for the Wagyu A5? Is it the density of charcoal, the material of the grilling surface, or something else? Maybe you could try different amounts of charcoal or different types of grilling surfaces (stainless steel, flat top, grated grill, etc), and see which ones come out best!

@diehleeo1449

Жыл бұрын

I think the reason is because the disposable grill couldn't get very hot like he said, so he had to keep the steaks on the grill for much longer which made them tougher and exposed to the charcoal and smoke much longer than usual which is why they had a much stronger charcoal smell and more than needed.

Just subbed great videos and format

Side dish request for the next time Guga wants to do Mashed Potatoes just to see how he'd like them the way they are done here - Peel and cut the potatoes - Place them in a pot with cold water that has been flavored to taste (I use salt and a meat stock cube, but you can go crazy here) - Boil them until ready - Take most of the water out, but save it in a bowl - Mash and add the saved water as you see fit until you are happy with the consistency - Add butter and dry spices (I used white pepper, garlic powder, thyme, oregano and rosemary last time) You can also add grated carrot or something along those lines to the mash to introduce a new taste

Yo Guga..you should do a video teaching a non expert how to cook amazing steaks like you...I'll volunteer if you need an experiment subject..seriously though..I have learned so much from watching you..my family definitely appreciates your knowledge 🤤🤗

From my experience with disposable grills you overloaded them. If you fill more than half of the surface they tend to lose heat and do a far worse job grilling things, especially around the edges.

Not sure i would recommend that little grill thing. Particularly if the pan is made of aluminum. Charcoal can for sure get hot enough to cause the aluminum to fume. Breathing and eating those fumes can be no joke.

Loved the video. I would love to see a video testing charcoal at different price points.

Suggestion for a video: make homemade ghee, and then take the milk solids that usually get thrown out and use that to dry age steak! Would love to see that

PS: also, pro-tip on bechamel. You, Guga, always add seasonings to bechamel after you've made the sauce. That's not the best way to make bechamel, because you often don't develop a lot of the flavors of herbs and spices. Back in the day, French chefs used to steep the flavor ingredients in the milk (onions, peppercorns, etc) before adding the milk to the sauce, so that they'd get maximum flavor out of spices and herbs. Today, you can do that too, or also add spices into the butter to flavor it before you make the roux. Also PS: that wasn't a true "bechamel". Frying off the ham in the butter before making the roux technically makes it more of a country gravy. Not saying, just saying.
