Protein Pros: SCA Steak

Almost fail!
Already had a ribeye in the fridge for tonight. Thought I’d try the seasoning part he did with letting it sit. Fired up the Weber. Set up for reverse sear. Didn’t take into account that the steak had almost reached room temp.
After a couple of minutes indirect, checked temp, 129, argh. Did a quick minute direct heat each side. Ended up up 148.
Although more done than I prefer the taste was great. Will have to adjust the cook time if I do this again. 60+ and still learning. No pics this time… Happened pretty fast.
PapaSop I cooked another pair of porterhouse the other night and butchered it, no pink what so ever. Complete disappointment

We both like rare steak but want the crisp fat and slight bark on the meat.
The solution was to cook partially frozen on a screaming hot charcoal grill
Works great for grocery meat counter steaks, about 3/4 to 1 inch thick -
He cut the best part of the steak off! I guess thats why I could never cook competition…or be skinny

Agreed, guess that’s why we aren’t judges either

He lost me at trim a ribeye! I don’t cook for competition. I cook for comfort and get in my belly!

Jonesy I think it would be fun to go and sample all the foods at a competition and judge them and then be able to look at the judges sheets and see how you would compare to what they are looking at.

bocephus Yeah, no training, just judge by your own instinct

kyle I agree, taste should be the most important thing not presentation.

ND Mike I agree fat is flavor, only trim after grilling for steaks.

Also have to remember that we “eat” with our eyes and nose also.

twilliams I agree, a little seasoning to enhance the flavor, but I want to taste a good steak.

Here is what the SCA looks for from their site:
Steaks are judged on Appearance, Doneness (Medium), Taste, Texture
and Overall Impression. Tie breaker: Taste, Doneness, Texture, Appearance, and Overall
Impression.https://www.steakcookoffs.com/resources/Documents/2021 SCA Steak Rules.pdf

bocephus That’s the problem with competition anything, it turns it into work & we are doing that usually for pleasure. Like someone trying to convince you to be a fishing guide or something & bowling over that your not interested. You are taking something that is to relax for & enjoy life & turning it into work.
