The Reluctant Gourmet’s Top Steak Buying Tips – 24August11

hotel clark — Wed, 24 Aug 2011 03:45:42 +0000

A lot of visitors ask me about buying steaks so I thought I would start putting together some tips on buying steaks, describing various cuts and what to look for when purchasing a good steak. I’ll start with some basics and add to this page as I learn more from my resources. You may also be interested in How to Grill a Good Steak? and where to buy steaks online and why just below….

Top Steak Buying Tips
1. My #1 tip is get to introduce yourself to your local butcher and become friends.
2. Buy the best grade of meat you can afford…Prime, Choice, Select in that order.
3. When possible, buy from the butchers counter not the pre-packaged section.
4. Look for steaks with fine texture and firm to the touch.
5. You want the color to be a light cherry red color, not deep red. And by all means stay away from gray meat.
6. Look for a steak that has marbling. It is the thin threads of fat running through the meat that makes it Prime and gives it that incredible flavor.
7. Dry aging is considered better than wet aging but that may be a matter of taste. However, avoid meat that has no aging and is too fresh.
8. If you do buy packaged meat, stay away from any with excessive moisture, tears or that are past their sell by date.
9. Just because the label says Angus, doesn’t mean it is Certified Black Angus (CBA)
10. Visit the Reluctant Gourmet Web Site often and sign up for my free newsletter!
________________________________________
#1 Getting to know your butcher
It doesn’t matter if you buy your steaks at the supermarket or a gourmet butcher shop. If you want to learn about meat, how to purchase it, what’s a good buy today, how to cook it, start a relationship with your butcher. These are the folks who know what you don’t and will be glad to help if you just ask.
My own local butchers tell me that customers don’t take advantage of their knowledge and experience. They come in with their own preconceived ideas of what a good steak should look like and end up buying an inferior product. A good steak is expensive so why not ask the expert who handles the products everyday what they think is a good bargain. You may be surprised by getting better cuts for less money.

#2 Buy the best grade of meat you can afford
Most of us rarely have the opportunity to buy and taste Premium beef. That’s because only 1 – 2.5% of all beef processed in this country is good enough to be graded by the USDA as Prime. The inspector takes in all sort of things when grading for Prime but as a consumer, we are mostly looking at marbling, that network of fat that traverses throughout the meat.
Given a choice at the market between a perfectly lean piece of meat and a Prime cut with lines of fat running through it, most of us would pick the lean steak. But it’s the marbling that gives the Prime cut the incredible rich, juicy, tender flavor and texture that we are looking for.
Just because Prime isn’t that readily available or in a price range we can afford, there is nothing wrong with Choice. There are different grades of Choice so you may want to shop where they consistently buy beef at the higher end of the Choice grade. How will you know? By getting to know your butcher and asking.
Select has the least amount of marbling making it lean but not so tender or tasty. More importantly, you are not going to pay that much more for Choice than you are for Select, so if you can, spend the extra dollars and buy Choice. In my opinion, there’s nothing worse then chewing and chewing and chewing through a tough, flavorless piece of meat.

Learn About Steaks: Rib Steak – 24August11

hotel clark — Wed, 24 Aug 2011 03:43:45 +0000

Among our cow meat, we have ribs, and then we also have rib steaks. What are those? I waited to cook them because I wasn’t sure. I had heard of rib eye steaks…but rib steaks? Maybe they just shortened it on my packages because they could only put a certain number of letters?

Nope, they’re a real thing.

The ‘rib section’ of a cow includes ribs numbers six through twelve (so, seven in all), and butchers can make that section into a ‘rib roast’ all in one piece (or multiple, smaller roasts), or they can cut the individual ribs with steaks, and then they’re called ‘rib steaks’ instead. Some people call these cuts “prime rib” but it’s actually kind of a misnomer because they can actually be “prime” or not, and it depends on the USDA grade.

Rib-eye steaks are basically rib steaks where the bone has been removed. They may be from a particular portion; I’m not really sure. It seemed like different websites said different things.

[Note: In the pictures our steaks are kind of small. It's because they are veal. These cuts actually do come quite a bit larger.]

Rib steaks are supposed to have a lot marbling and fat (so, flavor), because of the muscles that they’re from, so people don’t usually marinade these steaks.

Instead, it seems like the most popular way of preparing rib steaks is the Sear & Blastmethod. So, this is what I did to prepare ours.

Here’s how it works:
1. Preheat your oven to 450 F.
2. On the stove, get a cast iron skillet really hot.
3. Season your steak. I just used salt and pepper.
4. Sear the steak for 3 minutes on the first side, and then flip it over.
5. Move everything into the preheated oven.
6. Cook it in the oven until it is done. (We like our steaks pretty well done, so I think it was 7 or 8 minutes for us. If you want it medium, it’s about 6 minutes.)

Everything You Need to Know About Steak – 24August11

hotel clark — Wed, 24 Aug 2011 03:42:41 +0000

A man should know his meat. We can help. We tell you everything you need to know on steak types, grades and cooking times. And don’t forget to check out some of our best steak recipes and pro cooking tips and tricks.

Why Beef is Aged, and How: Beef must be aged to allow natural enzymes to break down fibrous connective tissue that holds the muscle together. There are two ways to self-tenderize: • Dry aging: Expensive and time consuming. The beef is stored in temperature- and humidity-controlled coolers for up to six weeks. Moisture evaporates, improving texture and concentrating flavor. Between the evaporation and trimming of the thin coating of mold that develops, there’s weight loss of up to 20 percent. • Wet aging: The beef is refrigerated in vacuum-sealed plastic and allowed to tenderize in its own juices. No evaporation means no moisture is lost. Less waste but also less concentrated taste.
Some Types of Beef You Should Know About: Rare “red” cattle (the same breed that produces Kobe beef) raised in Texas by HeartBrand Beef–the only herd outside of Japan. They started with eleven head of cattle, which have been guarded by armed Texas Rangers for the past fourteen years while the herd has grown to more than five thousand. (heartbrandbeef.com) • Grass-fed: Healthier but, some say, less flavorful than corn-fed. Raised in open pastures. Not necessarily organic. (Grain-finished cattle–which are switched from grass to grain for the last few weeks before slaughter–develop more marbling.) • Heritage: From rare heirloom breeds, pasture-raised on small farms without the hormones or pesticides used in conventional agribusiness. • Angus: Aberdeen-Angus is a pure breed found in the U. S., England, Scotland, and Ireland. Certified Angus Brand is a brand name and may or may not include meat from Aberdeen-Angus.
The Grades of Meat: Prime: What you want. Typically found only at fine butcher shops, its interlacing of intramuscular fat–like a cobweb–assures tenderness, juiciness, and flavor. • Choice: Pretty good. More affordable and accessible than prime, moderate marbling still yields juicy, flavorful cuts. • Select: You’re on a plane.
Generally Important Point (Cooking): Cooking times in recipes are predicated on starting with meat that’s not too cold. All steaks should be taken out of the refrigerator at least thirty minutes before cooking.
The Pan: Lodge, an American maker of high-quality cast-iron pans for more than a hundred years, preseasons pans in the factory (its “Logic” line). The 10.25- and 12-inch, with 2-inch depth, are most practical–any larger and, depending on the size of the steaks, the oil could run off to the sides (where there’s no meat) and burn. • The pan must be hot enough to sear the meat on contact, to prevent surface moisture from creating steam, which can prevent browning. • While some chefs say the pan should be “smoking” before adding oil, most call for the intuitive “hot but not smoking.” Basically, really goddamn hot.
A Note on Salt: When you salt meat before cooking, you need a lot–and a lot falls off–so standard coarse salt will do. After cooking is the time to use fine sea salt. It’s pricey, but the large, crackly flakes are intense, so you don’t need much.
How to Use Oil: Before the meat goes in, the skillet should be filmed with oil–it should coat the surface without pooling. (You can add it when the pan is cold or hot.) At the right temperature, the oil will shimmer and gently ripple, as if you dropped a pebble into a pond. It shouldn’t spatter or smoke.
The Finish: Meat’s temperature keeps rising after cooking. Remove steaks from the heat when a meat thermometer reads 115 to 125 degrees. Then wait. During the all-important resting period, the temperature will rise to the medium-rare range, 120 to 130 degrees. • Get a good thermometer, preferably with a digital probe and large readout, like the Super-Fast Thermapen (four seconds with 1 percent accuracy). It is a potentially life-changing device. (thermoworks.com) • Always start with a recipe’s minimum cooking time. You can’t cook a steak less. • If you don’t have a thermometer and you don’t want to cut into the meat, press the cartilage at the tip of your nose. That’s what medium rare feels like.

About Steak – 24August11

Start your Journey to the Perfect Steak

I find it hard to understand why someone would cook a steak any other way than grilling. The succulent beauty of a grilled steak is one of the great pleasures of life.
Selecting a Steak: The first place to start when grilling the perfect steak is with the perfect cut of meat. You need to know a few basics about grades and cuts before you head over to the local meat market so you can get the steak that’s right for you. As a simple general rule take a good look at that steak before you buy it. The meat should be a bright red, the fat should be a creamy white and there should be thin streaks of fat running through the meat. Also, if you can afford it try to buy choice grade meat over select.

Flavoring a Steak: The perfect steak needs the right flavors, but different steak cuts should be prepared differently. You may prefer just a light dusting of fresh cracked pepper on that rib eye, but there are so many things you can do with a steak to enhance the flavors or season it precisely for that special dish. Tender and flavorful steaks may not need any help but a flank steak needs the right marinade to make it tender. But remember it’s your steak so you flavor it the way you want it. One way to really add something extra to any steak to to top it with a sauce or cheese.

Grilling a Steak: Learning the art of grilling a perfect steak is neither difficult nor time consuming. But, a few basic rules will take you a long way to making that steak the best you’ve ever tasted. A hot grill is just part of the trick. Make sure the grate is oiled and the steak is ready. Also remember to let the steak rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to spread evenly.
One word of warning, restaurants don’t typically “grill” their steaks. They have secrets to make their steaks great. However, you too can can cook the perfect restaurant steak.
Once you have the rules of the perfect steak down, it’s time to expand to the world ofrecipes like blue cheese stuffed steaks or teriyaki. There are thousands of ways to make a great steak and I have more than a few suggestions. If you eat steaks every day you should never get bored.

Picking Perfect Steaks – 11August18

hotel clark — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 07:38:14 +0000

Diet trends come and go — this month it’s low-fat that’s taking a beating — but one thing remains certain: Americans still love their red meat. We eat an average of 67 pounds of beef a year and that hasn’t changed for a decade, according to the newest government figures.
What has changed are some of the choices we have at the supermarket when we want to cut into a juicy steak for dinner.
Randy Irion, director of retail marketing for the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association, says the industry is putting more effort in marketing beef to consumers. That means more beef with fancy “branded” names such as Rancher’s Reserve and Certified Angus and Natural Beef, plus more of those full-service glass cases, where customers can pick out a specific steak.
Unfortunately, say some meat industry experts, the guy behind that glass case might not know much about the meat he’s selling. Most of the meat-cutting has already been done at a centralized location and then shipped “case-ready” to supermarket and super-center chains across the country, says Joseph Cordray, a professor of animal science at Iowa State University who works closely with retail meat departments.
“A market may have one guy who knows how to cut meat, but most of the others [in the meat department] are not highly trained,” Cordray says. “Real butchers are a dying breed.”
The exceptions are some upscale or specialty chains, such as Whole Foods, Balducci’s or Wegmans, or at the scattering of traditional butcher shops (see “Meat Markets” on this page). There, it’s easier to find someone to give you expert advice about the different types of steak, how to cook them, even recipes.
We asked some of those butchers, as well as other meat experts, what you need to know when choosing the perfect steak. Here are their 11 top tips:
• Pick out your steak like you pick out your clothes. Would you grab just any old pair of pants off the rack? Of course not. Same with a steak. Look at each one carefully. If you want it to be juicy and tender for cooking on the grill, you want lots of little white flecks of fat in the meaty part (it’s called marbling). The flecks melt away during cooking, adding to the meat’s flavor. You also want it to be an even thickness (if it’s thinner in some parts, it will cook unevenly). If you’re buying more than one steak, try to find cuts that are all close in size so they finish cooking at about the same time.
• Look for thick cuts. Avoid steaks that are less than an inch thick, says Bruce Aidells, co-author of “The Complete Meat Cookbook” (Houghton Mifflin, 1998), because they’re too easy to overcook. Be careful when buying steaks in packs — it’s often difficult to get a side view to see just how thick they are.
• Don’t trim that fat. Yeah, yeah, we know. It’s hard to break years of being admonished otherwise. But father-and-son butchers Bill and Aaron Fuchs of Wagshal’s Market in Northwest Washington tell customers to leave most of the fat on the outside edge of the steak before cooking. The fat helps to keep the steak moist and hold its shape during cooking. It also enhances the meat’s flavor. Once the steak is cooked, you can trim off any excess fat before serving.
• Behind the glass or on the shelf? Sometimes it’s the same meat. Markets tend to put a higher grade of meat in the full-service glass case, but not always, Irion says. Sometimes it’s the same meat as in the plastic-wrapped packages on the self-service shelves — the only difference is you might have more of certain cuts to choose from in the full-service case. If you’re unsure, ask a meat department employee to explain the difference — especially if the steak in the case is priced higher than the ones on the shelf.
• Chuck and Round are tough guys, Rib and Loin are not. If the words “chuck” or “round” are in the name of the steak, it will need to be marinated and then slowly cooked in liquid to be tender. These are generally very lean cuts with lots of muscle fiber that need to be broken down with slow, long, moist heat. Don’t even think of throwing a chuck steak on the grill.
If the word “loin” is on the label, or the butcher tells you that a steak is cut from the loin (a strip steak, porterhouse or T-bone), these will be the most tender. Same goes for the word “rib,” as in rib-eye or rib steak. These can be cooked quickly — on a grill, in the oven or on the stove in a pan.
• Know your grades. The lower the grade, the leaner and tougher the beef. Prime is the top grade, in terms of flavor, marbling and tenderness, but very little prime beef ends up in mainstream markets. As far as consumers are concerned, there are really only two grades: choice and select. Those two make up almost all the meat being sold at the supermarket. Choice is the higher grade, although it can encompass a wide range of quality ranging from close-to-prime to close-to-select. The leanest, least expensive meat is generally graded select and it makes up the lion’s share of meat in the self-service case, according to the cattlemen’s association.
Keep in mind that grading is voluntary. All meat must be inspected for wholesomeness by the U.S. Department of Agriculture before it’s sold, but grading for quality is done at the request — and cost — of the packer. Because grade dictates price, many packers pay for it to be done.
• Be wary of fancy brand names. To help promote beef, the industry has introduced what it calls “branded beef” — often special names that don’t mention the meat’s grade. Some of those names are developed for marketing purposes or to give certain cuts a cachet. Safeway recently introduced Rancher’s Reserve, a specially tenderized line of leaner beef that falls into the lower end of choice or upper end of select. Some brands are breed-specific, such as Certified Angus Beef, which means the beef is prime or choice and had to meet other specific qualifications.
• Enhanced? Natural? Organic? Know the difference. “Enhanced” beef means meat that has been injected with additives (such as flavoring, tenderizer or a salt solution to increase moisture). Look at the label. It must indicate what percent of the meat’s weight is from an injected solution.
“Natural” beef means it’s been minimally processed without additives, colors or preservatives. That description fits most of the beef being sold; it has nothing to do, however, with what the animal was fed or whether it was given antibiotics or growth hormones.
If how the animal was raised is important to you, look for “certified organic” on the label. Certified organic beef must meet the USDA’s 2002 national organic program standards, meaning cattle must be fed entirely with organic feed, must not be given growth hormones or antibiotics and must have access to pasture.
• Want a perfectly cooked steak? Buy a thermometer. Butchers and meat experts might quibble about which is the best cut of steak, but there’s one thing they all agree on: There’s nothing better than an instant-read thermometer for making sure that steak is perfectly cooked. Don Roden, owner of the new Organic Butcher in McLean, says the secret to a perfect steak is 125 degrees on the thermometer (for rare). “Doesn’t matter how you cook the darn thing — grilled or in a pan — use a thermometer to measure the internal temperature,” he says. “It does away with all the guesswork about timing.”
• Try this two-step trick for cooking steaks. This is an old restaurant method and a practically foolproof way to make sure your steak is not overcooked. It works particularly well with a two-inch thick, boneless steak such as filet mignon. Sear the steak on one side in a hot, oiled pan on the stovetop over fairly high heat. This creates a nice brown crust. Flip the steak over, then place the pan in a 425-degree oven to finish the cooking. Roast to desired doneness (about 5 minutes for rare, 7 minutes for medium rare, 9 minutes for medium), depending on the thickness of the meat. Let the meat rest for 5 minutes to redistribute juices before serving.
• And the award for Best Steak goes to . . . the rib-eye. Ask a butcher what his favorite cut of steak is, and the boneless rib-eye gets the nod. In terms of juicy flavor and tenderness, the rib-eye has it all, says Bill Fuchs of Wagshal’s. “It’s not quite as tender as the loin, but it has a richer flavor. It’s my favorite,” Fuchs says. Adds Irion: “When they grade the beef carcass, it’s the rib-eye they look at to determine the quality of the meat. You won’t go wrong choosing a rib-eye.”

How To Grill Perfect Steaks – 11August18

hotel clark — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 07:37:20 +0000

I wanted to call this post “Classic Steak House Grilling” or better yet “Vintage Steak House Grilling” but I went with the more pedestrian title in deference to the various search engines out there. I’m pretty sure that most people are going to be typing “how to grill perfect steaks” or “how do I grill perfect steaks” into the search box because they don’t realize that the old-school steakhouse method is the thing they really want to find.
And yes, this is definitely grilling. You can smoke a steak, you can roast a steak, but when you want to do it right a steak needs direct heat. Grillheads rejoice, this is one time when your way is the best way. Crack a beer and pat yourself on the back.
This method (or “The Method” if you want to be dramatic about it) was revealed to me when I was visiting the butcher one day. I got to talking to another customer who is was a line cook at one of the last 1970s-style steakhouses in my area. We talked about steaks and as the topic wandered from the best cuts to the best thickness he was nice enough to pass along the secrets of the Lost Art Of The Steakhouse Grill.
And now, like that old guy in the original Kung Fu series, I impart the sacred wisdom on to you. Keep reading, grasshopper.

Click here for a tree-friendly hardcopy

There isn’t really any extra work involved with The Method but it does involve some extra time. There are no fancy ingredients, no arcane techniques, just a couple of extra steps, a watch, and a really hot fire. Clear your mind, and let us begin.
You will need:
Rib-eye or strip loin steaks, 4-6cm thick (about 2 inches if that’s how you roll)
Oil with a really high smoke point – peanut or grapeseed is best
Coarse kosher or sea salt
Coarse-ground pepper
Mesquite charcoal or a nice big chunk of mesquite wood.
A Quick Note About Steaks: Any steakhouse guru will tell you that rib-eye is the best steak for grilling, period. Strip loins and new york strips are safe fall-backs if you are watching your pennies. However, almost any steak that has some decent marbling will work, and if you prefer a t-bone or porterhouse or even a sirloin then by all means follow your muse and use one. But you owe it to yourself to do this with a premium rib-eye at least once.
A Quick Note About Mesquite: If you can’t find mesquite charcoal just use your regular hardwood lump and get a nice fist-sized chunk of mesquite wood, the kind they sell in bags at the barbeque store. Do not use chips, you want a chunk. If you are using real mesquite charcoal, be aware that (as noted in a previous post) it can be somewhat harsh for beginners, If you are unsure of yourself or your brand of charcoal mix it with a regular lump charcoal to mellow it out.
Start with your fire. Hot, hot, hot fire. I use my Big Green Egg because it is the easiest way to get a stupidly hot fire, but you can do this with any charcoal grill that holds enough fuel for the necessary heat. You want your coals to look and feel like a pool of magma.
At the steakhouse they have part of the grill toasting away at about 1000 degrees celsius (that’s 2000 fahrenheit for you imperial types) and you want to get as close to this as you can. If you can get the thermometer in the dome or lid of your grill up to 450 C (850 F) then your temperature at the grill itself will be right in this range. I use a mix of mesquite charcoal and the Charcos cocoanut charcoal (which burns crazy hot) to get up to this temperature with a minimum of fuss. While your fire is building up to these apocalyptic levels, go prepare your steaks. This part is dead easy – rub them with a bit of the oil and then give them a nice heavy seasoning with the salt and pepper. Do this five minutes before you are going to put them in the grill. Don’t worry about over-seasoning here, the temperature during first sear makes that almost impossible. When the five minutes are up, slap these on the stupidly hot grill for ninety seconds per side. There will be flames and smoke and general mayhem here and if this is your first time you will be tempted to panic. Be sure to heed the immortal words of Douglas Adams at this point.
DON’T PANIC.
The thickness of the steaks is what is protecting them here, and the reason that steakhouse steaks are always crazy thick. If for some reason you had to go with thinner steaks, cut this time down to one minute per side. Either way, once they have had this crazy sear on each side take them right off the fire and put them somewhere safe for 15 to 20 minutes. This is the extra time I was talking about, and it is crucial to the final product. While the steaks rest (in the steakhouse they call this “dwelling”, if you were wondering) you need to bank your fire and get it down to a less-insane temperature. You want to claw it back to 200 C or 400 F on your built-in thermometer. If you aren’t using mesquite charcoal, this is where you add your chunk of wood — dry, never soaked — to the coals.
You will know when the wood is ready because you will be getting white smoke. White smoke = flavour. Not white smoke = nasty creosote doom.

When the temperature is right and – if you added wood – the smoke is white, put your steaks back on. If you are using the recommended thickness, follow this handy time guide to get to the result you want:
Rare – three minutes per side
Medium Rare – five minutes per side
Medium – six minutes per side
Medium Well – seven and a half minutes per side
Well Done – watch your mouth, punk.
If you are unsure, use a meat thermometer. That’s what they were invented for. Pull your steaks from the fire and let them rest for 5 minutes. And then dig in.
As always, you’re welcome.

Philippines wedding planners and wedding reception caterers recommend Clark Philippines as this year’s premier destination for beach weddings and garden receptions. Wedding couples in Philippines no longer prefer traditional indoor venues and hotel ballrooms for wedding receptions in Manila, Angeles City, Subic and Clark Freeport.

Selecting a good and safe event venue in Philippines is not that easy. Many public event venues in resort hotels in Philippines can’t deliver assurances of safety and security. This exposes our corporate and private events to risks that are not acceptable to us as event organizers in Philippines.
