ckreef Posted October 26, 2015 Report Posted October 26, 2015 This cook is dedicated to @tomahawk66 CI griddle heat soaked at 570* 1" thick NY strip steaks for 1 1/2 minutes per side. 2 steaks put in a room temperature ceramic pie pan and covered with a cheese mixture of tomato/basil feta cheese, Panko plain bread crumbs and a little mayonnaise to hold it all together. Put in the oven broiler about 1" below the coil for about 1 minute. A nice rare cheese crusted NY strip. If you want md rare go 2 minutes per side on the CI Best steak I've done in a while but that's not saying a lot because I haven't done a decent steak in a while.
Poochie Posted October 26, 2015 Report Posted October 26, 2015 Amazing cook! That had to be sooooooo good.
MacKenzie Posted October 26, 2015 Report Posted October 26, 2015 ck, that topping looks interesting, please make one steak medium for me, yum yum
tinyfish Posted October 26, 2015 Report Posted October 26, 2015 Looks delicious and I saw the dessert too wow.
ckreef Posted October 26, 2015 Author Report Posted October 26, 2015 Looks delicious and I saw the dessert too wow.We only served this with a large baked sweet potato because we knew a huge slice of desert was coming our way.
ckreef Posted October 26, 2015 Author Report Posted October 26, 2015 ck, that topping looks interesting, please make one steak medium for me, yum yum Me and Mrs skreef really love cheese crusted steaks. We have our formula down after many steak experiments (tough job eating all those less than perfect steak experiments - LOL) These were a little more rare than I normally go but my son loves them this rare and me and Mrs skreef can deal with it in a pinch. Actually they sort of melted in your mouth, not much chewing needed.
tony b Posted October 26, 2015 Report Posted October 26, 2015 Killer cheesy goodness! Have you ever done one with blue cheese crumbles??
ckreef Posted October 26, 2015 Author Report Posted October 26, 2015 Killer cheesy goodness! Have you ever done one with blue cheese crumbles?? Absolutely have done them with blue cheese. Our favorite formula is: 2 parts feta cheese 1 part blue cheese 1 part panko bread crumbs 1/2 - 1 part mayonnaise We've tried all blue cheese but that can be a little over powering. We've also tried just plain cheese (feta or blue) without the panko and mayo but it doesn't crust as nice. The panko and mayo addition makes it more creamy with a little texture and crusts up beautifully. 1
tony b Posted October 26, 2015 Report Posted October 26, 2015 Thanks for the tip, ckreef! May try a molecular gastro trick (Sodium Citrate) on the cheese blend to leave out the mayo. May do 2 steaks, one each way and see which works best.
kjs Posted October 26, 2015 Report Posted October 26, 2015 Looks absolutely decadent, I'll bet it was delicious.
