  • You may not like the experiment, but the science is right. Seared meat is as (or more) likely to lose interior moisture as non-seared meat. When you add surface moisture lost, the seared steak indeed does lose even more than the non-seared steak (hence the sizzling sound). We still sear however, but for flavor, not moisture retention. Your mom was wrong folks, get over it.

  • you need to measure interior moisture loss, not net loss. obviously the surface moisture is going to be seared away. should've seared the other steak after cooking to keep things equal

  • lmao you oven cooked both of them dude, you coked the seared one twice. You also didnt weigh the measurements it after the grease was added

  • The reason people sear is to get rare or blue-rare meat. I still dont understand why you baked it after you seared it; it seems sort of crazy to cook a steak correctly and then ruin it immediately. And wouldn't searing achieve safe levels edibility of non-questionable meat with the least amount of water loss? So wouldn't that make that true in a round about sort of way?

  • Is he trying to be funny? Big fail there.

  • @karljambrich His name is Alton Brown. Very popular on the Food Network. He is the mad scientist of food. lol

  • @onionhead007 LOL YOU CANT READ CAREFULLY

  • I knew this lady who could fire-sear a steak.. and it was the best thing EVER!

    She pounded the krout out of it with a tenderizer prior to setting it on FIRE for like a full 20 to 30 seconds and then I think cooked it for about five minutes more.

    LIKE BUTTAH!

  • what this guys name?

  • @JoeZcookingtips1 First off, your channel is unavailable so I couldn't look through your videos that way.

    Secondly, I typed your username into the search bar to see all of your available videos that way and there is no pt2 and pt3 to this video uploaded- if there is, and I'm not finding it, could you perhaps link us with the video extensions? You know " watch?v=HHsnqVw-UfU " or something? Thanks.
