No ones actually bothered that you are ordering hockey pucksI love peoples reaction whenever I post that. It’s a fun guessing whether they’re genuinely bothered or just messing around.

You should at least try the different steps before just deciding it's not for you. Rare and well-done aren't my thing.

I’m convinced the people that eat well done have never tried any other temp or had a bad experience in the past. A medium rare even blue steak will melt in your mouth when done right with a good quality cut.

kenji said he did blind taste tests with people between medium rare and medium and slightly more people enjoyed the medium
i prefer anything rare to just passed medium rare.
but i usually go rare when i order those OD large steaks cause i never finish them. so when i go to reheat them they end up around medium.
never had blue rare but would try it

I don’t eat steak too often. If I do, I’ll do it at a good steak house. Not TGI Fridays or Applebees types of restaurants.
I have tried medium in the past. Just prefer it well done. Have never had a “hockey puck” served on my plate.

Not even the same concept here lolWord. Like eyeballing the amount of gas you’re selling to people, without using any instruments.

From my experience skirt is really hard to mess up.
If anything it's too chewy/pully when it's rare. I prefer mine closer to medium these days.

This makes no sense
You can’t even see the gas go in to a car and if you’re putting in a portable joint then you know exactly how much you’re selling by eyeballing it.
So the episode this is from, they fill up garbage cans full of gas at the cheap price. Then as the price skyrockets through the week, they sell it lemonade stand style to customers. The plan was: customers pull up and ask for, say 3 gallons of gas.
The gang: Okay lemme just pour you 3 gallons out of this trash can. I’ll count it as I pour. 1…2…3! Okay you’re all set. That’ll be $12.
Customer: ummmm how are you COUNTING a liquid?
The gang: I know how to count. I’m not dumb.
Does this make sense to you? GUESSING instead of MEASURING. Yes? Or do I need to explain metaphor vs simile?

Was in the city today hanging & my sis in law wanted to try a pizza spot as did I & luckily they are both in Brooklyn. First pizza stop today at Krispy Pizza in Brooklyn. Very good pizza. Awesome dough & crust. They have like 5 other locations(mainly NJ) but this one in Bklyn is the OG.
2nd
stop of the day: Luigi's Brooklyn. Place has been here since 1973 & One Bite gave them a 9.3 so I had to drop in. An oldschool Italian joint with the original menu too. Legit NY style & as thin as they come. The pizza is on the greasy side but tastes really good.
Also, went to Little Island & Hudson Yards to see some cool architecture. Little Island was privately funded by some billionaire who converted the empty pier into a green space. A clean, open green space to chill out & take in the views of the 212. Hudson Yards was beautiful.
They really did good by that area & cleaned it up nicely! Too bad The Vessel is closed now(people were committing suicide a lot from the top) but you can still come into the middle spot & snap some cool pictures. And some snaps of the Freedom Tower.

Probably rare.
If they would have served that instead of the Chilean Sea Bass, maybe they would have ate their lunch.
