    Usually things I see on here from a college dorm include the money shot.

    Looks great but leave the sprig and vine back on the cutting board 😜

    WAY overdone but having lived in dorms with a communal kitchen, I get it. LOL

    Looks really good. Just could have been pulled off about 3 minutes sooner.

    I like the rosemary on it. The tomatoes look amazing (I am assuming a balsamic option happened).
    Might have tossed a sliced garlic clove in with the potatoes but what you got there, I’d eat that and only judge on the wellness of the steak. 😉

    This definitely beats the onion sandwiches and instant ramen I ate in college.

    over cooked unless you like it that way… with that sliver of $shot. no noticeable blisters in the toms?

    The presentation is amazing. Steak looks great too but it looks too cooked for me.

    Who cares if the Might be overdone. Looks great, I’d Mac that! Enjoy it.

  8. No matter what the internal temperature is that’s a pretty solid and well displayed college dorm meal right there. Nice job.

    I was usually eating chefboyardee dinosaurs and meatballs. May have topped with a little dried parmesan if I was feeling bougie. If I wanted to get REALLY fancy maybe some (also dinosaur shaped) chicken nuggets w/broccoli and cheese.

    Need to see the money shot for any real rating… but having cooked in the dorms in a past life, 2 things were most important for real cooking: a toaster oven (has a broil function) and an electric burner that reaches temp to boil (I think I had a stainless Cuisinart one).

    Routinely popped the breaker but damn were some good meals made.

    Bro are you resting your knife handle against the steak!? I will not stand for this.

    Gotta show the inside man otherwise we know nothing.

  12. Your fried potatoes need work. They can be crispier.

    Boil for 15 mins.

    Leave to cool.

    Slice. Use slightly more than you need and Discard the ends.

    On a hot pan cook for about four minutes without disturbing.

    Flip each potato with a tong.

    Add a red onion sliced and three cloves of garlic (preferably pressed).

    Mess it around so the onions cook properly but you get a crisp on the other side of the potato.

    You can do all this while the steak rests.

    Who tf just has tomato’s on a vine on the side broo cmon

  14. Bro my roommate in college once burned ramen noodles. To this day, idk how.

  15. You cut it to see how it was done, and didn’t show us. I’m assuming you over cooked the shit out of it. Solid plate of food though! Keep it up

    Obviously it turned out tough like a brick, otherwise you would show us the doneness on the picture.
    If your gonna use 5$ worth of cocktail tomatoes, why not actually work them and get creative or prepare a gravy.
    Potatoes look legit 👍

    College student? Holy hell was I poor back in college then. You’re eating how I am now and I still rarely eat what you’re eating. 🥹🥹🥹

    While I can barely see into the steak it looks well done. Tomatoes could’ve gone longer and with more seasoning and ditto the seasoning on the potatoes.

    As dorm food though this is absolutely an 8.5/10 and you have many great meals ahead of you.

  19. Your entire dorm doesn’t like this…. Good looking meal though

  20. HaiKarate

    Looks great, but kinda looks like the whole plate needs some salt, pepper, and butter.

  21. Terrible-Piano-5437

    Looks better than the Hamburger Helper I lived off in college.

    I think your game is more elevated than mine was when I lived in the dorms. Enjoy

  23. FreshwaterFryMom

    Proud of you for making this in a dorm. My friends would bang out nuggies and mac. Cheese plate if feeling boujee.

    If you liked it, you’re happy… who gives a shit. Enjoy
