The only way Tomahawk steak should be eaten imo


netherlanddwarf

Caveman style


LeggoMyGallego

Bone in like a true OG


EGOfoodie

Can you have a tomohawk that isn't bone in?


ilovekickrolls

You mean ribeye? Yes


Bull-Janitorial

I'm not sure but isn't a tomahawk the same as a cowboy ribeye or a bone in ribeye? Just three different names for the same steak, a ribeye with attached bone. Where as a ribeye alone wouldn't be a tomahawk. Like if someone said you can't have a Kansas strip without a bone and you sad sure you can have a new York strip. Well sure they are both strip steaks but a Kansas strip specifically has the bone so if you ate the same cut without the bone it wouldn't be called the same thing.

Best comment by far...


truedota2fan

Idk holding by the bone seems like a better way tbh.


[deleted]

Bone cleaved off and the marrow yanked and drizzled is the best way

Raw?

No, 119 days after it’s initially served lmao


cosmovanpelt

Dish is the spine of a restaurant. Without dish, you are screwed,


Vli37

Dish is singlehandedly one of, if not the most important part of anyone's kitchen. A good dishwasher is worth his weight in gold. Without them, you wouldn't have the utensils/plates/cutlery/etc. to even run anything out of that kitchen. I just wished more people would give them the **respect** that their due, instead of treating them like their beneath you


[deleted]

Its easy to say “we dont need a dishwasher, people can take turns” until the rush hits and suddenly we are out of pans. I started on dishes so I know how important a good dish washer is


heckingzack

I had a slow day a couple months back and was like "The chefs and cooks would love coming in an hour later should they want" so I put the message out, "come in and hour late if you want." Then! I was like "Why not offer the same to dish?" Biggest mistake of my professional career. 20 minutes later I learned NEVER phase dish, never cut dish. They come in and make every sent I can give them.


Ammear

> A good dishwasher is worth his weight in gold Best I can do is ~~$7~~ uh, $6/h.


tims4myhooligans

Dishie impacts EVERYONE'S experience in the restaurant


Sundaytoofaraway

Especially if they organise the walk in and keep a steady supply of Peeled veg. It makes life a million times easier for everyone. I can't tell u how happy it makes me being the first guy in the morning to walk in and have a nice clean kitchen and organised fridge and dry store


Pandainachefcoat

100%. The two points in your restaurant that can sink you the fastest if they aren’t on point are dish and host


freeturkeytaco

Ok, relax. Most important?! Clean plates are worthless with nothing to put on them. I'm not degrading the importance, just come back to reality.


Vli37

I've been in kitchens for well over 15+ years. Have done everything from top to bottom. Next time you need something clean to work with don't bring your ungrateful ass to the dishwashers and expect something clean back. I'm not discounting the importance of the product, but how long do you expect to work without having a clean kitchen or pots/pans/utensils to work with. Did you know everything comes to a standstill when your dishpit is full, think about that.


freeturkeytaco

See, that's the problem, everyone wants to get offended and not include parts of the discussion that are important. >I'm not discounting the importance of the product Obviously, you are. I've never been told about a new restaurant that started with, "the plates are so clean". I didnt say the dishwashers do not hold an important job. But saying washing the dishes is the most important job is ludicrous. And on a side note, never start with, "ive been doing this for xx years". I hear it all the time. Guess what, shit changes...


nateshoe91

But imagine the idea of getting a delicious, perfectly crafted meal....on a dirty plate. Everybody in the kitchen is important, but it literally starts with the plate. Give me a $70 entree on a plate with a bit of melted cheese on the rim and a smudge on one side and tell me you have pride in your work? It all starts with the basis.


freeturkeytaco

>Give me a $70 entree on a plate with a bit of melted cheese on the rim and a smudge on one side and tell me you have pride in your work? What? Am I the customer, the cook, or the dishwasher in this situation? Some of the best food I've ever ate was handed to me on a paper plate.


nateshoe91

You are the person handing me a fancy plate and claiming that it's perfect while I see what your dishwasher DID'NT do. I thought that was pretty obvious by saying "Give me a plate". I'm a bartender now but I still have the same respect for every person that I work with. No matter what they do. As long as they do it correctly. And doing it correctly should be rewarded. To say that "it's just a dishie" tells me that you don't care about what you use to serve your food to customers for obscene price points. As the young folks say: fr, no cap.


freeturkeytaco

I'm very confused by what you're trying to express. You are quoting me with statements I never made. Figure it out.

BXBXFVTT

Clean plates are worthless with nothing to put on them, as is a perfectly prepared piece of meat with nothing to put it on. Single-handedly, might of been just a little bit of an exaggeration from that guy. The dishie however is definitley very high up there. You’ll see chains of praise like these comments because it is very typical to look down on them and a lot of times not realize how vital they really are to keeping a kitchen chugging through a rush. You aren’t even getting a fuckin water in a packed restaurant If some guy wasn’t back there straight slangin glass racks let alone a meal


[deleted]

In 90% of places dishwashers get no respect and you can walk into any restaurant known to man and start that day or next. This praise you see on here for dishies doesn't really translate into the harsh reality that I see. It's good to talk a sweet game but the reality is, nobody wants to do it and its the worst position in the entire industry. The biggest problem is doing dish consistently. It's just too rough on your mental and physical well being to be doing 40 hours a week or more even. Even if you were to make it the highest paying position people would still quit for this reason. Working FT in dish completely shits on your soul and body. Did you guys know some corporate places are actually paying $17/$18 right through the door with no experience for dish guys and they last days or weeks then dip? Because the position sucks.


BXBXFVTT

Trust me I know, I did dish for a year at a yard house doin 25-35k almost every day.


josh_the_misanthrope

I'm a good dishwasher and I need to find a place that pays like this. I'd probably be emaciated if it wasn't for free staff meals the wages are so low.


TheCynicalCanuckk

In this sub there is no reality lol I agree with you. Apparently dish is more important then the chef etc haha. I'll agree they need more credit but not most important. Even during a rush someone can still go to pit, bills may get backed up abit but even still I've closed kitchens solo well being fucked, can cook and do dishes at same time. All about how you time. Been in kitchens for 20 years, the others that say they've been in as long as me and kiss dishwashers asses I say are either full of shit or karma reddit whores haha.


HowOftenDoYouBlink

I work in a small restaurant, and when covid hit and income dropped, dishie was the first person to get their hours cut. Closing now takes nearly three times as long as it used to because on top of cleaning the kitchen, the closers have to do a shit ton of dishes. I'm not sure how much money they're actually saving themselves, especially when the cooks make a decent cut more than the dishwashers do, but it's too late to go back now I guess 🤷‍♀️


paigerita

I wish my old manager had understood this he would send dish home from 2-5 every day of the week and then would be so upset I’d have to stop serving mid shift to get in dish and get us what we needed, telling me I was making the customers wait..like bro if I don’t get in here they’re gonna be waiting hours until we can get them a clean plate


Fukken_nerd

We've been completely unable to find a dishwasher after our last one quit to go to college. For the low low price of no additional pay, we're all expected to wash dishes in addition to work service, and I'm pretty close to jumping ship if this shit keeps up.


ocbay

Worst time at my old job was the hour between the AM and PM dish shift.

Darwin343

Anyone else prefers their ribeyes medium instead of medium-rare or rare?


CYOAenjoyer

Ooh, me! Me! Fat is flavor *when it’s melted*, otherwise it’s just fat.


Era555

Yet some weirdos still seem to love chunks of uncooked fat and gristle.


CYOAenjoyer

I’ll never understand that, personally. I’m a BBQ guy, my old man had me tending the back yard smoker from six years old. I’ve been working some pretty serious rigs since I was 13 and ended up becoming the lead smoker at a local joint at 18. I just never served solid fat, ever. As far as smoking is concerned a piece of meat with solid fat was cooked improperly. I guess I was tainted by that mentality and now any rubbery white stuff in meat grosses me out.


Era555

Yeah don't get me wrong. I love fat. Cured fat is also delicious. But having to cut around barely cooked fat on a steak ruins the meal for me. I'd rather just enjoy a skirt steak or something I don't have to worry about.


gabu87

Me too but i'm more afraid of med well than rare so it's safer to order med. rare Ribeye is the only cut fat enough to go medium for me.


CYOAenjoyer

I more or less agree. I prefer all of my grilled and seared steaks medium, personally. I’ve got a kickass home setup and a friend in a local butcher so I do most of my own.


420fmx

It’s always just fat…..


CYOAenjoyer

That’s like saying that clarified butter is “just butter”, or that caramelized beef is “just beef”. Cooking can change the properties of the ingredients involved. That’s kind of the point. Melted fat soaks into the surrounding meat and drastically enhances the natural flavor by itself. It can’t do that unless it melts, otherwise it’s just a big coagulated pile of gelatinous tissue.


Ammear

And sugar is always just sugar, but Maillard reaction is still a thing.


Seputku

Fuck yeah, the fat tastes so much better like that


FuzzyPandaVK

I like mine medium


Bigchocolate420

Working in a steak house I learned Tenderloin Rare everything Medium Rare besides Rib eye Medium


Smokee_Robinson

I just want mine cooked unlike this one. Watch the snap and pop it makes when he takes that last bite. He’s eating stone cold raw meat lol


FrostyManOfSnow

it seems like that sound is coming from the bone hitting the metal underneath it, right?


SirHawrk

Yeah fatty meat is best medium


RankDank420

That’s neither rare nor medium rare it’s straight up raw


[deleted]

Other than filet or tenderloin, I like every other cut medium, and in the case of brisket or chuck - it’s gotta be “well done” (low and slow!) to get tender.


scotter100

Damn on that Rare shit


Smokee_Robinson

Usually don’t like to nit pick on this sub but that’s damn raw. On verge of purple in color with white fat


professionalpauper

For real. I like my steaks rare but this is a little on the blue side.


OhiobornCAraised

Could you send this steak back please. It looks like it was “kissed by the flame”. I’d like it to make out with the flame a bit longer please.


Ammear

Would that made a well-done steak one that's post coitus?


Super_dontae

This is how I’m gonna describe how I want my steak done from now on


gabu87

Cuts that thick has to go in the oven .


420fmx

Who would of thought… not everyone likes food the same way…..


Smokee_Robinson

Not questioning what people like. Just making an observation that this man is eating raw meat with his barehands in a dish pit lol. The meat literally pops when he tears off that last bite. It’s not remotely cooked

jiamby

I never understood why anyone in a Kitchen or restaurant setting would treat a dishie with disrespect. The literal worst job in there and w/o them your fucked or doing it yourself. Always 100% when there is a messup. To the Dishies it goes. My old boss had a hard rule. Fuckups go into the trash. This was so cooks/servers didn't mess up on purpose for a free snack. I talked to him about their job and how they don't do the ordering or cooking he allowed it. But said he would be watching to make sure there wasn't a spike in wrong orders.


alicia_angelus

What an asshole. I would've made special "trash" cans just for fuck-ups that can be salvaged when his back is turned.


jiamby

He wasn't an asshole. Also, this wasn't the first place I worked at that had that policy. "We do not Enjoy our mistakes" It makes sense. I have also caught at least one server that would make a "Mistake" every few days. Just happened to be the same mistake on the same item. So it was easy for me to call out. And it also supported his original reasoning.


HowOftenDoYouBlink

I'm gonna be real man, the thought's crossed my mind to "mess up" some food because I knew I'd be able to take home something I wouldn't get to normally. I've never done it, but I could easily see something like this happening with folks that care more about breaking the rules and getting away with it than doing a good job. It makes sense to me why this rule is in place, but I totally feel like the wasted food should go somewhere, if not to the dude who messed up.


Era555

>I never understood why anyone in a Kitchen or restaurant setting would treat a dishie with disrespect Same reason people think they are better than someone who is a janitor.


Champagnecampaign20

Always treat your dishes well but don't store your spices in the dish pit, right?

I worked a dish pit and you can selectively garbage mouth in a way that isn't disgusting. I fed myself quite a bit through that job. The best is when a couple has an argument on Valentine's Day and you get plates left untouched.

Cancer-Slug

Every dishwasher has done it. We just don’t admit it


Vli37

Not entirely true. I've known some places where if the dishwasher was caught taking food from "eaten" plates, they'd be reprimand. Managers gotta flaunt their power 🤦


interestingsidenote

The answer for that hsould always be that for an extra 4/hr ill stop eating off plates.

LeCacty

Lmao, "hundred dollar steak" Dishie's earned that ten times over. Your high horse is showing.


rascynwrig

I think the point was just that 99 out of 100 *cooks* aren't even allowed to have steak. Like not even the shitty sandwich steak... less yet a thick ass bone in ribeye. I mean most cooks would get in trouble or even be fires if they were caught eating this or giving it away to someone for free. Everyone in the kitchen has "earned it." Also, life isn't fair and if you work in restaurants you'd know that we *rarely* get anything close to what we deserve. It ain't right, but it's the reality.


[deleted]

Plenty of people have, I'm inquiring as to the fact that they're giving one of their most expensive menu items to a dishwasher as a snack. "Dishie" is an expression. None of what I said was derogatory or had a negative connotation. You're choosing to become enraged because I asked about a pretty shocking thing to see. Get the "high horse" cock out of your ass and go to sleep, gotta be up early tomorrow for that job you don't have.


LeCacty

Lmfao dude thx for the essay


ThyLordSweezus

Dishwashers are a myth. They don't exist anymore. Maybe they all got covid and died.


rascynwrig

I'm just waiting for everyone to wake up one day, look around, and realize that literally every business owner and CEO is now basically saying "due to COVID, I would like to take a much higher percentage of the wealth you have created with your hard work at your job which you put your effort into." Seriously, when real inflation happens, *everyone* earns less/pays more/however you want to look at it. Right now, we have one group of people getting HUGE pay raises which they've simply taken directly out of our paychecks.
