16oz Prime Cab Strip Steak
Personally I was pretty pleased with my crust and minimal graybanding. After ten a minute rest it was temping at 135 exactly.
Applied generous amount of salt, let it sit for about 15 minutes for salt to penetrate. Reverse sear @ 200 for 25 min until 100 degrees internally. 3 minute sear each side in a very hot cast iron pan.
I'm still pretty new to this, but would love to hear any tips I could do in the future.

It isn’t even rare.
Co worker must pee sitting down
thats a nice medium- medium rare
Perfect medium rare. Great crust, great inside, would be very happy served this
Great medium rare, good crust. Tell your co worker to buy a steak and see if he can do better. Probably one of these clowns that like it well done. 😆
They’re high. It’s perfect.
Your co-worker is special. IMO that’s on the medium side of medium-rare.
Perfect!!
honestly you nailed it in my opinion. if i were to critique your process at all, i would personally salt the steak for longer before cooking
It’s definitely not rare it’s kinda medium rare but also medium at the same time? For some reason to me it looks dry that’s my biggest concern
Co-worker is a doof
I swear people like your co-worker are the ones who send this steak back in a restaurant,then complain later that they finally ate when the rest of the table was finished.
Perfect medium rare.
Coworker is an idiot. That’s beautiful.
Perfect
Coworker is wrong
lol, that look medium to me.
Med rare. They must be cavemen
Looks good to me. You need better coworkers.
Your coworker don’t know up from down, let alone red from blue. This is mid rare for sure.
Coworker needs a helmet and a juicebox.
beautiful medium! maybe your co-worker is slightly color blind? my only addition to your steps is salt for longer to better develop crust & penetrate the meat for flavor.
Co worker likes dinosaur nuggs and fishdicks
Don’t talk to that co-worker about steak again.
That would be my main thought.
It’s perfect.
More like it looks great
Coworker type of dude to tell his parents you said a bad word as a kid.
coworker doesn’t know what they’re talking about
I swear to God people just lie in the title to drive engagement. There’s no way people are this unknowledgeable about steak
I’d say medium rare and it looks fantastic! Kudos
Is your coworker colorblind by chance?
Not at all “blue”. Perfectly med-rare to me
Stop shagging your co-workers. Find someone who appreciates your meat more
Your co-worker is dumb.
report that co-worker to HR
Team Blue Steak here – way too cooked for my liking lmao
It is clear your coworker does not understand steak doneness.
That looks like a typical rookie mistake where you pulled the steak at 135 but the steak kept cooking to 140-142 during resting. You gotta pull it off around ~128 depending on the temp you were cooking at. It looks like closer to medium at this stage.
The only blue I see is a Blue Ribbon for how nice that was cooked.
Looks medium/medium rare to me
Co-worker is an eejit.
Nice fucking sear too. It’s a medium rare/low medium. Also bleu steaks are amazing.
Tell your coworker to stick with chicken, this is a near perfect medium.
Pretty much nailed. This is nowhere near blue/raw. They probably only eat well done
Medium rare honestly. Would be redder for rare. Not even close to being raw
If they think that’s blue I can only imagine what they think medium rare looks like 😂 Out here eating wood probably
Saw this post browsing all. I’ve been a vegetarian/vegan for over 25 years and if I ever ate meat again I would want a steak cooked like this. Your co-worker is a fool.
Then they don’t know Jack, looks perfectly perfect!
