Looks tasty and kudos for the braised tomatoes, a severely underrated preparation of that particular fruit.
>>21697701Thanks anon, I appreciate it. The maters were braised in an herbed broth with a bit of the brine from the shallots
>>21695245>>21695260I would highly suggest a dry brine to get a better crust. The doneness is basically perfect tho I cant lie.>>21696312How much per pound for the whole sirloin? Looks pretty good.
>>21697725'Preciate the input and compliment anon, but "dry brine" isn't a thing. It's just a euphemism for salting. By definition, a brine is a heavily salted liquid medium. That being so, "dry brining" us made up nonsense. Jargon even, if you will. As for the crust, I see nothing wrong with it. The steaks were salted heavily nearly 12 hours before they went down. What is it about the crust that you think is lacking?
