I'm a fan of steaks, but I haven't tried medium alive.

bruh imagine eating 2kg of raw meat and a potato and thinking it's somehow a great meal

AwesomeLowlander@sh.itjust.works · 17 pts · 53d (2 replies)

It would have been an amazing meal, pre-fire.

doomsdayrs@lemmy.ml · 16 pts · 53d

idk... nuts and berries are really nice with that tasty lick rock.

Buddahriffic@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 52d

No hominid ate potatoes pre-fire. Not sure homo sapiens even existed pre-fire, though I'm curious if we inherited fire starting from our ancestors, learned it from neanderthals/homo erectus, or figured it out for ourselves.

Well technically, they didn't say it was great, not even that it was good. Just that they're still full, which I believe

BigBananaDealer@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 52d

raw kibbi with a side of lamb and rice is fucking delicious

Bluegrass_Addict@lemmy.ca · -9 pts · 53d (8 replies)

I'd forgo the potato but frig yeah, a hau ch of meat that size would be amazingly great meal. throw a side salad on there and bam... keto friendly meal, tons of pristine and energy to hit the gym and work on some core strength.

I lost 50+lbs in 5 months eating food like this. 10chicken legs and salad, whole racks of pork ribs and salad, 1-2kg of beef and a salad.

those were my dinners for months. lost weight, had more energy then ever. felt so much better then when I ate carbs. didn't feel like bloated bleh after eating, even that much

This comment is like one of those recipe reviews that gives 2 stars because they changed half the ingredients and it came out shit.

BCsven@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 51d

Lol. I overheard this exact scenario.

A white lady asks a middle eastern woman how to make humous properly, like what she brought for lunch.

The woman replies that you soak the chick peas, boil them, then pinch off the outer skin and just keep the pea, then roast the sesame seeds, and blend it all with garlic, oil, lemon, pepper, salt, etc.

The white lady says, You actually pinch the skin off every single chick pea?

Yes, if you want the smooth consistancy, rather than mealy/grainy texture.

White Lady:That sounds like too much work, I'll just leave the chick peas out of the recipe altogether.

Bluegrass_Addict@lemmy.ca · 1 pts · 52d

lol I always change the ingredients because I know most recipes can have altered ingredients without issue. baking is another story.

I also wouldn't even leave a review, for anything. it's a pointless thing to do.

my food never comes out shit. following the recipes, especially online... that results in shit. a LOT of blog recipes are absolute garbage and need to be changed.. esp American ones. add 8lbs of butter, 7 cups of corn syrup, a drop of red food coloring and now you have your steak marinade. uhh, no thanks.

A hauch of meat? That's like a thousand hauchs stuck together.

Bluegrass_Addict@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 52d (2 replies)

a haunch is a whole thigh or something equivalent. this most certainly qualifies as a haunch

wieson@feddit.org · 2 pts · 52d (1 reply)

You misspelt it as hauch, which I humorously took as the german word Hauch, meaning whisp.

I grew up bilingual German and English, and I didn't get that joke.

Looks to be prime rib. It's not raw, just rare. It's supposed to look like that. And no the liquid is not blood.

jacksilver@lemmy.world · 16 pts · 53d

I'm not sure if it's the lighting or the camera, but on the left picture the prime rib is almost hot pink. Rare is fine, but that cut looks terrible.

agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works · 6 pts · 53d

It's all pink and opaque, more like the rare side of medium-rare

Lumisal@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 52d (1 reply)

Rare is just the fancy version of raw

Stegget@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 52d

That would be blue. Rare is a higher loot tier.

Bluegrass_Addict@lemmy.ca · -6 pts · 53d (5 replies)

yeah pretty sure that's blood/grease mix. blood from the rare meat, and grease from the improperly rendered fat.

while I'd eat the shit outta that because I love blue steak, rare for when the servers look at me confused, I'd love to hear what you thinkt hat red pool of liquid is atop the very rare meat if it's not blood.

john_lemmy@slrpnk.net · 24 pts · 53d (1 reply)

It is myoglobin, not blood.

Bluegrass_Addict@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 52d

mayo globin sounds pretty tasty actually

RamenJunkie@midwest.social · 12 pts · 53d

Its some weird muscle juice not blood.

Stegget@lemmy.world · 12 pts · 53d

It's myoglobin.

EvilHankVenture@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 52d

If you put it aside it won't coagulate, it's not blood. It's myoglobin as the other poster said, proteins from the meat. Blood is drained from meat before it is butchered.

ITT: People that have never seen or eaten prime rib.

Yes, it is tender enough to eat with a spoon.

Lumisal@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 52d (1 reply)

So is kiwi marinated trimmings, but at least those are cooked. Heck no I'm eating this raw

AngryRobot@lemmy.world · 0 pts · 51d

Its not raw. Its cooked. That mean it pink, not red

Zoomboingding@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 52d

I've made the mistake of ordering filet minion rare. It's such a tender cut that the inside is just almost gummy when cooked rare.

My childhood best friend's dad always said to send his steak out so raw you could slap a band-aid on it and put it back out to pasture.

A bandaid wont fix exsanguination though

bizarroland@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 52d

No need to be rude, like, maybe he just really wanted to use the word exsanguination and found a sentence that it fit.

FartMaster69@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 10 pts · 53d

Not with that attitude.

Starik@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 52d

No, but it will prevent it.

CentipedeFarrier@piefed.social · 9 pts · 53d

I go with “I want it to moo when I stab it”, but I actually would eat it raw, and have on many occasions (not from restaurant, but directly from a butcher)

But it’s been almost a decade since I ate a slab of meat. It just doesn't agree with my digestive system, and constipation for days isn't worth it. Im not strictly vegetarian, but as long as eggs don't count, I’m vegetarian probably 75% of days with the rest being pre-made meals or things people prepare for me, and a burger a few times a month. I’m not paying the premium for a beyond or impossible when they always taste freezer burned around here because they aren’t popular, but if they have a veg patty or black bean, I usually get that.

Churchill apocryphally liked his martinis so dry he wanted a glance at the vermouth bottle while pouring the gin.

Poor guy had to eat it with a spoon

DJKJuicy@sh.itjust.works · 19 pts · 52d

Yeah that's prime rib.

It's pink, not red.

Low and slow roasted to not overcook it.

AltheaHunter@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 16 pts · 52d

That’s not a steak, it’s a cut from a prime rib roast.

still full (of parasites)

There are a shocking number of people in this thread who have apparently never seen a prime rib before in their lives.

Kolanaki@pawb.social · 2 pts · 51d

Prime rib is my favorite, and I always order my steaks rare; I have never seen one this vibrantly pink. But I suppose it could just be the lighting/photo correction. The one on the right looks normal; the one on the left is practically neon.

I sometimes wonder what it would actually taste like to just take a bite out of a living cow or pig as if I was a wild wolf. Like would it taste more or less like a steak/pork chop or would it be completely different?

Foreigner@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 51d

I imagine it would taste different given that most of the meat we consume is bled out. Probably the closest you'll get to that experience is game hunting and eating the meat straight away without exsanguination.

feetandballs@lemmy.zip · 1 pts · 51d

They actually taste a little different in my experience

That's prime rib that a good veterinarian could bring back to life.

Eternal192@anarchist.nexus · -11 pts · 53d (3 replies)

That's why the only steaks i eat are those that can be prepared somewhere between medium and well done, the rest are better in a stew anyway.

I did eat a few small pieces of "well done" beef and while it was ok the fact that it was still bloody in the middle almost made me vomit.

Bluegrass_Addict@lemmy.ca · 13 pts · 53d

bloody in the middle isn't well done.

that's brunt from frozen.

Confused_Emus@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 9 pts · 53d

well done

doomsdayrs@lemmy.ml · 4 pts · 53d

I rather have my meat cooked. Fully herbed and sauced and spiced to perfection.
