Why does my steak look like this?

[Ilikemyteastrong]

Rump, grilled as I always do my steaks.

I usually have sirloin but they were out so got rump instead.

It looks extremely 'wrinkly' to me.

Is this standard for rump?

You need to read the thread @cicatrix1 😂

I got an email back from mnhq to say they've put it on the list for their "Classics Commitee" 😊

That steak needs a Madonna glove

Uuuffffft!!
I'm vegetarian but do often miss steak. Not anymore!!!

@SheilaWilde au contraire, the rice is afraid of the beautifully nail polished hand ✋

Or at least it would be if my drawing skills were better than OP 's cooking skills.

Loving the humour on this thread 😀

After watching Raymong Blanc demonstrating how to cook a steak properly I gave up trying to grill it and I pan fry it instead in a hot pan.

I oil the steak, not the pan, season it and cook for 2 minutes each side then rest it. This gives me a medium rare steak. While the steak is resting I deglaze the pan either with a drop of water or some sherry, then add a knob of butter then pour this over the steak.

I've given them a little Pat Butcher makeover to help feel more at home and less a fried (rice). <painfully unfunny attempt at a rice joke>

I heard an outlandish tale about rice, thinking about it, I don't think there was a grain of truth in it.

So that's why there wasn't Bigfoot 2! You cooked him 😅

Sorry to laugh at your expense OP but this has brighten up my night 😂

@RampantIvy it's given me such a much needed laugh this week!

Do you keep the pan at the high heat for the 2 minutes each side, or turn it down a bit?
I like my steak medium but it always seems to turn out well done for me. I would follow similar to your way but have always turned down after 1 minute each side as the pan gets too smoky... wonder what I'm doing wrong 🤔 oh and I would cook 3 minutes each side in total.
Thanks!

I have it high, but not the highest. I close the kitchen door or I would set off the smoke alarm and have my hood extractor on high.

I use my griddle pan for cooking steak. The smoke is often from the fat in the pan which is why I oil the steak and not the pan.

I'll be brave and give it a go next time so 😁

BUSTINGCLOULDS.😆

Crying here.

oP I think your culinary skills are under-rated, you are ahead of your time. You have produced a very fine Doigts de Gorille Avec Riz Petrifie.

Don’t let them put you down. Perhaps a foot with toes for your next dish?

You're welcome @cicatrix1

Good call @Itslookinggood .

OP what about this for dessert?

No, it’s a Wish version of that simply cook recipe 😂

I had a steak last night and tried to cut fingers into it but it didn't work. You really have some skills OP.

I know this thread is getting old but Funny Feet made me lose it all over again!!!

Can you even get those anymore?

OP, you've made people all over the world cry laughing, and I thank you so much!

Looks over cooked

😂😂

OP is truly skilled.

What’s dafuq?

I think that steak will be relived if you at it OP so that it is gone from this world.

By now it must be in the sewer and have lost any memory of how much it was overcooked. So that's a blessing I suppose. 😇

*relieved if you ate it!

Those typos just add to it all though. 🫣🤣

It's the Boomerang glove steak, as it keeps coming back....

So your typo was quite apt 😂
