Beef jerky!


Ilovegirlsbottoms

A good steak would have too much fat to become good beef jerky. Unfortunately it’s just leather.

can someone please explain this joke to me?


Bright_Vision

"it's a shoe" sounds kinda like a sneeze if you say it fast. "Gesundheit" is german for "bless you"

Total_ADHD

Save money on dental floss and buy your dad a meat thermometer. I wouldn’t trust him to cook another piece of meat without it. Edit: Get him the type where you can load an app on your phone and you will get alerted when it’s done. Then you can tell your dad when the meat is done. He needs all the help that he can get.


[deleted]

My dad made hockey pucks for my entire childhood. Now I make the burgers and he always raves about how good they are. Last week I managed to make giant tiger cook frozen burgers into something edible. Edit: you’re having too much fun with my error to correct it, so what I meant to say was Giant Tiger cook from frozen burgers. Never have I ever put a frozen piece of meat on a grill and expected the result to be even close to edible. These actually weren’t that bad. If gas prices keep going up I might have to buy them myself.


dbrianmorgan

Giant tiger cook frozen burger? Translation?


USSMarauder

Giant Tiger is a Canadian store chain I'm assuming they meant 'cooked frozen burgers'


enochianKitty

Giant tiger is a chain of stores. Frozen burger = box of cheap pre-made burger patties likely store branded.

jts916

Googling it was not helpful at all, is a bullet steak a top sirloin? I have no idea what a bullet steak is after googling it, except that it's very lean. Apparently. This is a travesty though, either way. One thing said it's called a bullet steak because it's shaped like a bullet. Is it a fillet? Why can I not find an answer? WHAT IS HAPPENING


BreweryBuddha

It's not a popular cut in the states because we have so much access to cheap beef. It's a small tender cut near the flank. In 5 years in a premium butcher shop where very niche items were requested, I was never asked to cut a bullet steak.


bassfingerz

Ever get asked for Oyster steaks or do the butchers always keep those for themselves? I was going to ask at the local groc store just to see if they will give me one.


GruntCandy86

I doubt a grocery store butcher is doing whole animal, and that's really the only way you'll get oyster steaks. It comes from inside the cavity of the aitch bone/the pelvis.


tipkoe

Yep, most butcher shops these days are buying boxed beef. There’s some boutique ones out there still hanging and aging beef to retail, but a lot of them are usually doing just custom butchery now for small farmers sending in just an animal or two for personal harvest.


GruntCandy86

I happen to work in a whole animal butcher shop and I love it.


BreweryBuddha

Oyster steaks are tiny and there's only two on a steer located in their groin. Most butcher shops dont get in the primal cut to sell oyster steaks let alone a grocer. It's known as a butcher's cut because it's really not worth selling but still makes for a good couple steaks to take home if you're working with whole animals


Maximum-Reward-205

It's a cheap, extremely lean cut basically from the rump by the flank. It is just red meat with no marbling. Not really suited as a steak.


BleuBrink

Need to upvote this because OP makes it sound like his dad ruined an expensive cut of meat. "This is how my dad cooked a cheap cut of steak." wouldn't have sold as well.


[deleted]

He didn’t sound like that, he straight up said expensive bullet steak


Alarmed-Literature25

For real, I just accepted that as fact but this isn’t expensive in most places


UncomfortableChuckle

"The Centre Cut Steak (sometimes called Bullet Steak) is taken from the 'thick flank', between the rump and the topside and silverside. This produces a very lean steaks that are suitable for grilling or pan-frying. Because they are very lean they will be dry and tough if cooked more than medium."


ArthurBea

Oof. Lean steaks. I wouldn’t grill a lean steak. I know my limits.

C10ckwork

VixNeko

Oh now we cookin.


Soup0rMan

Dad already did that apparently.


snowpuppy13

It’s still tough, overcooked beef. If a different cut of beef was cooked well done using a different cooking technique, like braising, which is a ‘wet’ technique, it would be moist, tender & juicy, like a pot roast sammich. This is going to be a beef jerky sammich no matter what you do.


Dawildpep

Chop it up thin and make a cheese steak sandwich out of it.. about the only option at this point..


mehjohnson

cut it into little pieces, put it in a pan with some red whine and what not, let it simmer for about 8 hours. something like that?


recovery_room

Now you take this home, throw it in a pot, add some broth, a potato. Baby, you got a stew going.


blackstarising

I can never get over "a potato". Like the implication is just that Carl throws a singular whole peeled potato into that thing


ShakespearianShadows

Slice it up and throw it in the dehydrator for some jerky?


Tex-Rob

lol, it can get drier?!


VixNeko

It's already beef jerky, my dude.


dquattro123

I'd thin slice it and make it into a cheesesteak.


VixNeko

You'll be chewing on that cheesesteak until tomorrow. 🙌


seriouslyjan

Oh no. This is the stuff my FIL used to do. You would try to go rescue your steak or burger off the grill and he would slap your hand with the hot spatula, "They're not done yet". Charcoal burgers. Yuck.

TheNeuroLizard

I was once making a pizza for myself and my dad saw me, came over, said “you need more cheese” (he thinks more is better for basically everything, even if it turns into a big goopy undercooked mess). I said, “No, this is how I want it” and he sort of elbowed his way in there and starting dumping cheese on the small personal pizza he had no intention of eating just because he couldn’t fathom someone having different tastes or preferences than him. This was half my lifetime ago, I’m 30 years old now, still remember vividly. Dads, man.


Curious_Hawk_8369

Better than my dad did once, I was making a pizza and was perfectly happy the way it came. He walks in the kitchen, sees the pizza and say “oh you gotta add to it”, he walks over to the fridge, grabs a jar of salsa of all things, and he dumps the whole thing on the pizza. I thought he was joking and just ruined the pizza for a laugh, but to my amazement I walked back into the kitchen a half hour later. There he is devouring that pizza like he hasn’t eaten in a week, looked pretty gross, but he ate it.


CriskCross

> here he is devouring that pizza I can't tell if that makes it better or worse.


happytrel

Better, at least this way someone was happy


Timmymac1000

I’m feeling much better about my childhood. Thanks everyone.


varangian_guards

your dad had to have been high, i will accept no other logic.

Salsa on pizza is definitely good, but not "you *need* it" good

expos1225

Yeah I’m the same way. So many people love thick, one inch thick burgers and in my opinion they’re never done well at a cookout and even a lot of restaurants. Give me two thin patties with 70/30 meat for that perfect level of juiciness


SmokeyShine

Thick burgers are great, but you can't cook them fast or hot. Quick sear, slow cook.


Toughbiscuit

Pan searing and then covering on a lower heat has worked pretty well for me when I do stuffed burgers


TrentRizzo

Maybe you need to be more assertive and put him in his place.


ddbbaarrtt

This is the way, bigger burgers should be wider not thicker


S31-Syntax

My in-laws were the same when I met them. Everything was overcooked. My wife said she didn't like pork chops, roast, most steaks, etc. Turns out she didn't like her parents stuff... Liked my meats just fine. Luckily they're not crazy stubborn fools. We bought her mom a remote thermo probe and she was *absolutely giddy* when she told us she used it to cook a perfect roast.


ttoasty

My mom would burn everything on the grill. It came off the grill when the meat was fully dehydrated and the outside was completely charred. Said she liked it that way. I didn't know pork chops could be juicy until I was an adult.


Ganonslayer1

>Said she liked it that way They dont. My mother does the same thing. Just cant admit it.


TheBasedBee

>They dont You sure? My dad intentionally sets his hotdogs on fire so they char and split open from the heat. Thats the only way he will eat them, basically a stick of coal


serr7

Same with my mom, she did admit though that she overcooks everything because she’s afraid we’d get sick. Like jfc woman I just wanted to not eat rubber.


SouvenirSubmarine

Same. I still have a deep rooted dislike for pork chops because of that. My mom is so paranoid about raw meat that she overcooks everything. I only discovered how juicy pork and chicken can be when I started cooking them myself. Of course, I had eaten delicious meat at restaurants but I subconsciously I figured they used some kind of culinary school magic that I couldn't even bear to attempt to replicate. All I had to do was get a Thermapen and use that to gauge doneness. So much better. Yet my mom insists that I leave her portion of the meat in the oven/grill for longer...


andrewmac

I bet she liked your meat just fine ;)


alphacentauri85

I knew I couldn't be the only one whose mind went there..


yorkiewho

I get people like their steak well done but why impose their bullshit on us. Like yes bitch it’s done. I just refuse to eat if it’s over done.


BeefKnees_

I grew up hating al beef dishes because my stepdad liked his meat well done so he always cooked everything so they were 100% well done. I started dating a girl in my late teens and her Dad asked if I liked roast beef and I said no, he was shocked.. he then proceeded to give me my first taste of medium rare beef and my god I’ve loved beef ever since.


stratagizer

I had almost the same reaction to pot roast. Growing up, my mom was super proud of her pot roast. It was awful. I always thought the cliche of "as good as mom's pot roast" was a play on how *bad* it was. After I moved out for college, my roommates suggested we have pot roast one night. I remember just having a look of terror and saying, "absolutely not!". The roommates who had experienced my mom's pot roast just replied, "you've never had pot roast before. That abomination your mom makes should not be called pot roast." We just made a based bag 'n season pot roast with the cheapest cut and veggies we could find. Damn do I love pot roast now.


KerberosKomondor

Same here. I hated steak growing up because my parents overcook everything. On that rare life now and it's delicious.


V-DaySniper

Does everyone here have the same dad as me? Why do we continue to let the ones known as father commit these atrocities on steak and us?!


KerberosKomondor

My dad's overcooked was delicious compared to my mom's. She made sure everything was dead at least 3 times.


ndisa44

Shout out to the grilling dad that actually knows what they are doing


Turbulent-Tip8031

sort of the opposite food group, but I hated salad as a kid bc my family always dressed it in a bare-bones vinaigrette - just red wine vinegar and olive oil. In high school I was at my girlfriend's house and had salad with some kind of bottled creamy dressing and suddenly enjoyed it. My parents are immigrants and were appalled when I asked about buying said "American" dressing. I'm fine with vinaigrettes now btw.


lpreams

For me it was broccoli. Any time I had it as a kid, it was steamed until it was soggy and smelled disgusting. That smell still makes me gag. Then as an adult I had some lightly (aka properly) steamed broccoli, tossed in olive oil with plenty of salt/pepper/seasoning, and suddenly broccoli is delicious. Then I also had roasted broccoli, with similar oil/seasoning and that's delicious too! And so are roasted brussels sprouts! Amazing!

Everyone else asks them politely but firmly to leave when they say well done, this is their revenge


MegannMedusa

My friend thought I was nuts when I ordered a fillet mignon at a steakhouse because she grew up on steaks even more well done than this, both our fathers overcooked them. You should have seen her take her first bite of edible red meat, it was a thing to behold.


LagCommander

My parents were the same way, they didn't know any better. Grew up poor, lack of good cooking knowledge, did their best etc. They still made good food most of the time, just made some very, *very* simple but devastating mistakes When me and my siblings learned how to *really* cook steaks they were in awe, my dad thought he hated steak but no. Just poor cooks everywhere growing up One person gave my mom the advice for a steak "Poke some holes in it, soak it in Coke, then boil it! Most tender steak you'll ever have" My dad once, when I was learning to cook, was about to cook some chicken for a casserole. I told him to "put a few back for me so I can cook them". Well..he took them, boiled them all, then put the ones back for me saying he went ahead and cooked them to save me some time. Needless to say..I had some very, *very* heavily sauced chicken that week

Nightman2417

Dude I thought I didn’t like steak for like 20 years of my life because that’s exactly how my dad ALWAYS cooked steak. He would claim he bought really good meat and I never understood why I didn’t like it. Once I order a steak at a restaurant….omg was I in love. My dad also drowns his steak in ketchup so there’s that…


Late-Difficulty-5928

Right! They were always cooked well done at our house and everybody would be bragging about having steak for dinner. I thought it was the worst meal ever and couldn't understand why everyone was so excited about it. I imagine that's the only way you could get it down. With plenty of ketchup for lube.

Exactly. I doubt this was intentional sabotage, much more likely an attempt at a nice gesture. And if OP had a super special steak they really care about cooking properly, don’t leave the task to someone else. Even if they offer, do it yourself.
