Description

🔗 Save Money On Meat With My Complete Butcher's Method I teach: https://frankmillerbutcher.com Steak prices have gotten out of hand, and most people think a good steak means paying steakhouse money. The steak I cook in this video cost me $6 — a chuck steak, under a pound and a half, from the case at Costco. I soak it overnight in cold black coffee, rinse it, dry it, salt it, then low oven at 250 until it reads 118, and one minute a side in smoking cast iron with butter. No grill, no smoker. I'll show you how to pick the most marbled cheap steak, how to render your own tallow from trimmings, how to slice thin across the grain, and what the inside looks like when I cut into it after 31 years behind the counter. I also cover top round, sirloin tip and eye of round, a stovetop version if you have no oven, and a whole chuck roast that feeds six for less than one restaurant ribeye. If you've been priced out of a great steak, this is the one to try this week.
