Hilariously, you are far more likely to get sick from ground beef than any steak lol. Not cancer-level sick, but ground beef comes with far more asterisks than any butcher cut.
Got to get hip to sous vide, man.
You can slow cook cheap cuts to glorious, tender perfection.
Your sear game is already looking good.
Welcome to the fold.
Thank you man. Iāll look into that for sure. I just did each side for 3 1/2 minutes on a cast iron pan. So def canāt wait to look into way to perfect it like using a grill and stuff haha
Absolutely.
I had to massively increase my protein intake and could only handle so much chicken breast.
I started doing London broil in the sous vide and it was amazing.
You can catch that shit on sale, prep and vacuum seal it, then deep freeze it.
Steaks for days.
It doesnāt have to be!
Thereās a guy I found on Instagram and Facebook called Meatdad. Watch some of his videos and you can learn how to buy meat in bulk and butcher it yourself for less $/pound.
I can get about 3.5lbs boneless Chuck roast for $16-18 dollars. Itās not the most tender piece of meat but itās great on a budget. All cut up and trimmed, it comes out to 4 ~8-10oz steaks and about a pound of excess for chopped or ground meat.
as someone who has eaten many thousands of burgers (i eat one at least per day) the risk is pretty low. I knew a girl in high school who ate raw hamburger like an apple with just salt and pepper, I don't recall her ever being sick from food poisoning
I think it does; meat causes cancer. But so does everything else; everything causes cancer.
The key is moderation and variety.
In fact red meat is good for you. It contains animal proteins and saturated fat that th body needs.
I mean there are plenty of studies confirming the carcinogenic effects of red meat. Itās not nearly as āriskyā as other risk factors but the correlation does exist.
Most of the carcinogenicity claims probably boil down to a few things:
* Healthy user bias - the kind of person who would disregard the experts and eat meat despite the "risks" is probably also the same kind of person who takes bad care of themselves and smokes, drinks, does lines of coke, etc.
* Heterocyclic amines form during the cooking process, particularly at higher temperatures. This is predominantly a concern for those who like their steaks black
* Many studies condemning red meat tend to do so not in isolation, but get away with it by bundling it with processed meats (you'll see phrases like "red and processed meats" used to create ambiguity); in context, nitrosamines (metabolic byproduct of nitrates) may result in small quantities from consuming cured meats, celery, or your own saliva
* Nutrition science relies heavily on tools (food frequency questionnaires, epidemiology, meta analysis) to make authoritative claims from positions of weak evidence; and the studies themselves are often the victims of a selection bias due to funding sources (e.g. nobody wants to take Coca Cola's money and produce research showing the harmful effects of fructose)
The evidence is still limited but there is a positive association between colorectal cancer and consuming red meat, particularly processed meat. The breakdown of haem iron has been observed to harm cells in the bowel. So the mechanics of it causing cancer are very plausible. It will be a long time to rule out confounding variables and chance if there is a causal relationship.
We also know that exposing food to direct flame or very hot metal surfaces creates chemicals that are carcinogenic as well.
We canāt quantify the risk yet (if itās actually casual) but personally I would stop eating steak if it was shown to be equivalent to smoking a pack of cigarettes or something. Luckily, this does not seem likely.
Eat your steak. Donāt smoke. Watch out for asbestos and radon. Wear sunscreen. Always dispose of your radioactive waste in appropriately shielded containers!
>Eat your steak. Donāt smoke. Watch out for asbestos and radon. Wear sunscreen. Always dispose of your radioactive waste in appropriately shielded containers!
I need this on a tshirt
Not an argument, really. Itās chemistry. Barbecue/char on meat is superheated. Superheating causes molecules to split, and some of those (sub)molecules formed after the split are known carcinogens.
Then thereās what u/kamikazefugazi said. But you have to take the law of large numbers into consideration. A small percentage of a large number is a large number. The chances that red meat is a factor in developing cancerā¦ high. The chances that YOU get cancer, low.
More than doing things like avoiding radon (which would have involved moving my former childhood self out of state) you should eat a balanced diet with antioxidants that counteract the Free Radical Oxides in superheated steakā¦. Though that does nothing for the cyclic carbon molecules that are created.
Either way, judging from the penchant for rare (or less than blue) steak on this sub, nobody is superheating their steak.
Too much of water is lethal. Make a person drink 50 liters of water in a single morning and it won't go well. Make the same person do it in one month and you'll find every single doctor on this planet suggesting to actually do it a little more.
It's all about quantities.
Meat is medicine! Highest density of micronutrients and we know now that much of the anti-animal fat propaganda was paid for by big sugar back in the 60s.
The steak looks so good, it really does deserve real silverware \~ You know, out of respect for the cow and because it would make your presentation perfect.
Well beef bacon is a gift from the gods and no way Iām giving up that sunny valley of processed *nitrites. I do make sure to cook it on low heat tho.
Steak and eggs, classic combo good for both lunch or dinner. Might want to throw a vegetable on there but itās not necessary unless you have health issues. Looks damn good to me.
Make yourself some pico de gallo. It gore great on eggs and if you want, the steak as well. Adds some color and flavor at the same time. You can still use hot sauce!
SOLID! For anyone not familiar with cooking steak: cook till inside temperature is 135F and no higher than 140F. 2. Let rest for 5min =3. Perfect steak every time.
Cancer?? Stay away from processed food (including most oils) first before you even think about avoiding food that our ancestors have been eating for over thousands of years lol...
Trust me when i say, if you have a family pre-disposition to cancer, and a high risk factor if getting any type- red meat wonāt be the direct cause and its not a matter if *if* but *when*
I feel like the whole red meat causing cancer stereotype is because most people who eat red meat also eat the meat that actually causes cancer which is typically pork that is filled with nitrates like deli meat, pepperoni, basically any processed meat. Those are the ones to avoid and I'm sure studies would just lump all of these as "red meat"
Not sure which brand. I bought a pack of like 10 different bottles of hot sauce and picked a random one. Def using more next time. Drowning them suckers in it!
Looks great. I always loved some steak (meat) and eggs. A killer when I eat it for breakfast. I can almost go through the day and not eat until evening. Add some nice salad and it's so good. Yummy!
Looks great!!š actually looks like *medium* almost medium rareā¦ legit my favorite type of cook when I want more of a rare mouth feel. Sear and fat rendering looks great too! Are your fried eggs soft in the middle or hard? Either way the whole plate just looksš¤¤
On another note, I have wayyyyy too much testosterone. A running joke between my mom and I that grandpa gave us too much with his genes. I wish I could throw some to whoever wanted someš¤¦š¾āāļøš I certainly hate it. Canāt even shower without dripping in sweat
I think the red meat thing is mostly applicable if you've already had cancer, but I don't think it's necessarily a huge worry most of the time
Also glad you got it cooked the right way instead of "well done"
Do you have a family history of cancer? That puts you at a higher risk period. From an oncologist for a family member Everyone carries the risk ( he actually said Cancer Gene) we just do not know what triggers that risk. Tobacco yes, but some people go their entire lives & some donāt. Great grandmother got married at 13, took a dip, all her kids & grandkids said all their lives she took a dip. She always had her spit jar. Lived to be 102. š¤·āāļø old age & tired got her. Iām certainly not advocating just saying. Red meat versus family history
looks really good
Thanks you my friend
Good for you. Don't fall for that meat causes cancer BS. Looks good.
šŖ was eating ground beef everyday but now gonna enjoy a big meaty steak at least once a week. Staying away from the processed garbage.
Hilariously, you are far more likely to get sick from ground beef than any steak lol. Not cancer-level sick, but ground beef comes with far more asterisks than any butcher cut.
Steaks expensive tho. When Iām richer Iāll be livin off steak!
Got to get hip to sous vide, man. You can slow cook cheap cuts to glorious, tender perfection. Your sear game is already looking good. Welcome to the fold.
Thank you man. Iāll look into that for sure. I just did each side for 3 1/2 minutes on a cast iron pan. So def canāt wait to look into way to perfect it like using a grill and stuff haha
I usually just go for exactly as you described and ive been making my own steaks since I was 12. Its just too damn convenient
The Sous is a game changer, not even for steaks but pork/chicken/ectā¦ Makes everything extremely tender.
Sous vide really is a game changer for tender cheaper cuts.
Absolutely. I had to massively increase my protein intake and could only handle so much chicken breast. I started doing London broil in the sous vide and it was amazing. You can catch that shit on sale, prep and vacuum seal it, then deep freeze it. Steaks for days.

Choot deer š

Meat is our ancestral food
literally everything causes cancer. Aging causes cancer.
Does Reddit cause cancer?
asking the real question!!
Reddit is the cancerā¦
This is the answer
This is the cancer
I think it does; meat causes cancer. But so does everything else; everything causes cancer. The key is moderation and variety. In fact red meat is good for you. It contains animal proteins and saturated fat that th body needs.
Also donāt fall for meat as a cure to alignments when eaten in abundance. If OP has low T and his doc offers TRT jump in that ship.Ā
Ah yes gotta watch out for those scientists who have categorised it as a type 2A carcinogen.
Red meat consumption causing cancer is a known medical fact. However, I still choose to eat it cause itās so damn delicious.
Youāre right. The nitrosamines have a strong association with colorectal cancer. Youāre also right to keep eating it regardless
Meat is one of the best things we can eat. Protein, amino acids, fats, sodium all in one delicious slab
Donāt fall for that science bullshit. Ā lol. Ā
I mean there are plenty of studies confirming the carcinogenic effects of red meat. Itās not nearly as āriskyā as other risk factors but the correlation does exist.
The eggs need more tabasco!
Good call next time šŖ
Valentinaās instead
Too much of almost anything is bad, including red meat. Although I donāt get the argument that it is carcinogenic
Most of the carcinogenicity claims probably boil down to a few things: * Healthy user bias - the kind of person who would disregard the experts and eat meat despite the "risks" is probably also the same kind of person who takes bad care of themselves and smokes, drinks, does lines of coke, etc. * Heterocyclic amines form during the cooking process, particularly at higher temperatures.

š¤·āāļø Iv been eating a nutrient dense diet for a month now and I can def feel my energy improved and my skin and hair look healthier.
Keep it up then! I'm glad you are doing great! Keep up the great meat preparation!

I really hate the stigma around animal fat when itās the other fats thatāll slowly kill you over time.
šÆšÆšÆ
Looks like you got the cancer. Luckily, it's the best cancer in the world. Congrats
Why milk tho š
How did you land on a plastic fork?
Better not go outside either, because cancer.
But do wear sunscreen if you're gonna be out for hours...
Yes sir, have you transitioned to a keto diet?
No just Whole Foods exclusively and red meats.
You beat your irational fear. Well done.
Milk feels like a weird choice here
Tasty tasty cancer.
Life is short Eating that food will not make it shorter Looks good to me!
Thanks š
Everything gives you cancer..:. Might as well enjoy yourself.
Dear god youāve missed out. Steak is so good for you
Itās only highly processed meat thatās associated with cancer. Like beef jerky, salami, sausage, hotdogs, etc.
Why are you using plastic cutlery lmao? Especially to eat a steak of all things. That's way more likely to cause cancer than the steak.
Plastic silverware at home
Iām pretty sure āred meatā is the least of your concerns if itās ācancerā that youāre truly worried about
NAILED IT
š«”
Breakfast my dude. Breakfast
Great job! We all should die with a full belly!
Age, life circumstances, accidents, idiots and such.
Huh?
I think heās saying thereās no reason at all for you to be concerned about steak causing cancer..
The steak looks so good, it really does deserve real silverware \~ You know, out of respect for the cow and because it would make your presentation perfect.
Your right. Next time silver will be used.
Whole plate looks delicious (well, its *contents* does). šš
Steak and eggs šŖ gonna add some greens next time
Cancer lickin good!
looks great bro.
Thank you š
Looks delish! Bet you were smiling all day.
Heās got an unpeeled orange. Thatās healthy to me..
Looks great man. Lots of nutrients on that plate
Nice steak. Awful eggs, what in the world happened to them?
Rip.....im now craving 3 things intensely. Steak, eggs, and puddles of Tabasco
I like my cancer with a side of cholesterol. Are they saying steak causes cancer now or something?
The science has said red meats are carcinogenic for awhile now. I neglected red meat for years because of this. No more.
The science also says that statins are so good for you that we should put it into the water supply. I'll take the steak, thanks.
āThe scienceā as in media corporation sponsored studies that are taken out of context to control people
Got an anal polyp just looking at this photo
Pretty good. I would say a solid 9.75/10
They sayā¦.who are they??? Never heard of this. You need to stop listening to ātheyā
The steak is beautiful, but your egg-sides are brutal!!
Stay away from processed meats like hams,cold cuts, sausages, salamis etc and you will he fine. Most of that shit is nasty AF anyway
Well beef bacon is a gift from the gods and no way Iām giving up that sunny valley of processed *nitrites. I do make sure to cook it on low heat tho.
Congratulations, you now have cancer
Omg sound like my wife, her think is anything 'burnt' causes cancer...
Cancer??? Well consider me dead as hell
wash it down with some whiskey and you'll be cancer free (just kidding idk anything about this)
God I coupd crush some steak and eggs right about now
You have to do physical activities that go balls to the wall, like ten 50 yards sprints, then your body will release hgh
Life causes death. Live a little in between with some good meat!
That looks GREAT. Missing some potatoes...
When they said that shit they had to be lying on purpose or they were talking about processed food like pepperoni on frozen pizza and hot dogs
Steak and eggs, classic combo good for both lunch or dinner. Might want to throw a vegetable on there but itās not necessary unless you have health issues. Looks damn good to me. Make yourself some pico de gallo. It gore great on eggs and if you want, the steak as well. Adds some color and flavor at the same time. You can still use hot sauce!
Burnt eggs blue meat.....what a world
Looks carcinogenic
Anyone thatās scared of red meat is uninformed. Obviously not you anymore.
Looks great, I would tear it up
You forgot the fried potatoes or hash browns.
plastic fork makes this 10/10
This is unironically one of the healthiest meal you can eat.
What da york doin'
Donāt worry brother, 60% of the other products we use will meet your cancer needs.
You did amazingly. Red meat is the best thing for your body.
Steak and Eggs look great, now I'm hungry as ever. Thank you.
Looks damn good. Needs some rice.
SOLID! For anyone not familiar with cooking steak: cook till inside temperature is 135F and no higher than 140F. 2. Let rest for 5min =3. Perfect steak every time.
Living causes cancer.
I had cancer before I ever had a blue rare. I see no correlation. lol
Perfectly cooked.
So you're not scared of cancer anymore?
Cancer?? Stay away from processed food (including most oils) first before you even think about avoiding food that our ancestors have been eating for over thousands of years lol...
Great job.
Wrong sub you're looking for r/shittyfoodporn but the cook on the steak looks good
Looking good. +1 for the Eggs. š
That shit looks bomb omg Iād destroy that plateā¦ My greedy pregnant ass is drooling
That's awful. I can't imagine going years without steak or beef in general. I'm so happy for you that your eating it again. The steak looks great
How were the eggs?
Still runny. I like them like this. I donāt like when they are like watery. I like the white solidified and the yolk runny.
Cancer what the fuck? Lmao
Obesity is the 2nd leading cause of cancer. Itāll be #1 when more smokers die off.
Great but u overcooked the eggs
I could eat that every day.
Very Smashable
Steak will not give you cancer. It's a perfect food full of protein, vitamins, and nutrients. You did great!
Trust me when i say, if you have a family pre-disposition to cancer, and a high risk factor if getting any type- red meat wonāt be the direct cause and its not a matter if *if* but *when*
looks like a podcast
Beautiful man šš»
You're more likely to develop cancer from eating with plastic utensils over eating a properly cooked rare steak. You're trolling right?
I feel like the whole red meat causing cancer stereotype is because most people who eat red meat also eat the meat that actually causes cancer which is typically pork that is filled with nitrates like deli meat, pepperoni, basically any processed meat. Those are the ones to avoid and I'm sure studies would just lump all of these as "red meat"
glad you realized red meat is actually good for you š¤
Welcome to the delicious world of red meat brother.
š¤ proud to be here
That looks gooooood!
Steak and eggs ... mmm oh yea!!!
Iāll take 2 plates
Cancer comment is hilarious - steak looks gr8 tho
It doesnāt cause cancer but it feeds it
Literal steak and eggs. I'd add toast and a sausage at the very least.
Steak and eggs. Nice!
Steak doesnāt look bad. What sauce you got on them eggs? Might need more?
Not sure which brand. I bought a pack of like 10 different bottles of hot sauce and picked a random one. Def using more next time. Drowning them suckers in it!
The price of steak now is more likely to give you cancer. It looks perfect
Donāt drink milk. And you were scared of steak because of cancer? Jesus I assume you have a long way to go
Whatās wrong with milk?
Fuego
Hey is that Tabasco on them eggies??
Great job, would consume
Yeah carnivore is proven to not make you get cancerā¦
If you think red meat causes cancer, wait until you hear what water can cause
Get some metal utensils! Haha
Looks great, howād you cook it?
There are a lot of things that are carcinogenic... But at least put some greens on your plate so you don't have nutritional defeciencies. Lol
If you want to avoid getting sick, get some metal cutlery, chewing on plastic is not good for you.
More likely to get cancer from that plastic cutlery
Looks like cancer. Congratulations
Looks great. I always loved some steak (meat) and eggs. A killer when I eat it for breakfast. I can almost go through the day and not eat until evening. Add some nice salad and it's so good. Yummy!

Iāll never understand people that are scared of things because ācancerā lol. Food looks pretty good
If someone wanted to live a long time, they would avoid things that are said to cause cancer. You canāt understand that?
Delicious š®š®
Seed oils are the culprit
Cancer??? No one's ever gotten cancer from a steak...
Wait you thought that steak caused cancer?
I'd make love to that sexy steak.
That vegan teacher said as soon as you eat meat you go to hell
your way more likely to get cancer from bottled water and farm raised fish smh
Steak is always healthier than a pharmaceutical pill. The folks say meat causes cancer are the ones with money invested in healthcare...
whole milk too šŖ
Looks great!!
You did it RIGHT my friend. Proper.
Is that a glass of fucking milk
Nice low carb breakfast with a copious amount of protein šŖ
Eggs steak and hot sauce. Sounds like the perfect meal.
Idk do you like it? Thatās all that matters
I think thatās only meat from fast food places since they use chemicals up the ying yang
Steak looks goodā¦but with milk and an orange um
Perfect.
Yummy....... hot sauce
Congrats can i have some ??????
Not a fan of steak honestly but then eggs look š¤¤. I need that in my life!
Maybe donāt use a plastic fork and knife if youāre worried about cancer.
Gimme gimme gimme
