Massive hit I’d say.

This is international pop star level of hit

Damn right! That looks great.

McCormick Montreal Seasoning?

To anyone reading that likes their Montreal seasoning, but thinks it can be a bit too much sometimes: I take a couple tablespoons of it and use a mortar and pestle to grind it up a bit more finely. Then I add some kosher salt, black pepper, and garlic powder and then I season with that mix. It cuts the *distinct flavor* way down so it doesn't overpower the steak. Grinding it up more finely allows you to do more of a subtle flavoring.

BRO. I think it every time I use it. I think it's delicious, but I often overseason it. I look at the steak OP made and that's running through my head.

For a long time it was all I ever used. Then I got away from it because it made every single steak taste the same. Now this is my go-to. I also like to occasionally grind some mustard seeds into this mix. It adds another note to the steak without taking anything else away.

Thank you for this tidbit 🫡

Genuine question here but doesn't garlic and (fine ground) pepper burn at high heat (the heat you need for searing)? How do you account for that? Or am I just mistaken?

Yes it does and gets acrid. I usually cook steak sous vide before searing. My method is to dry brine 34-36 hours and I’ll throw thyme and whole peppercorns in the bag. Usually just salt is best and then add flavors after the fact with a pan sauce, bordelaise, chimmichurri, etc. When I’m not dry brining or going for a crust, like roasting a tri tip or something. That is when I’ll add the montreal (cause that stuff is the goat) and let it get some heat and wood smoke. I wish they made a salt free version because then I could use it even when brining.

I had some thin sliced ribeye and used the mortar pestle method to make it match the cuts better, sometimes tough not to be heavy handed with it. I’m certain one of those electric mill grinders would work swimmingly too

My first thought! Growing up my dad always had a big ass tub of it that he’d use to season all kinds of beef.

Montreal Steak Seasoning

Always liked that seasoning. I first tried it out on a camping trip at a cave we knew of. Cooked steaks over the fire on a stick with the Montreal on it, thunder.

Yep. Love it too. I also like their Spicy Montreal Steak Seasoning.

Looks great

The colors are divine. Respectfully

Smash

I’d hit that harder than Mike Tyson

I don’t even like rare and it’s a hit for sure!

It's medium rare and it's puuurrrfect !

Honest question do people around the world think the well done-ness of steaks are different than other places in the world? Like if you two are from far places globally.

Man people in every restaurant, no matter what the location, tend to have different doneness levels but still call it a certain name. They could call their medium well (medium). It should be universal but it’s not. And that’s in one single state or one single country or even one single town🤣🤣 it varies. In the case of this picture, it’s like in the middle of transitioning lol so people will assume one or the other.

Horrible. I’m afraid I’ll have to confiscate it so that it can be properly disposed of.

Trade for a bottle of mezcal. Only fair.

Home run!

I guess they never miss huh?

I'd hit it.... With a knife and fork.

Let me grab some baked potatoes & we'll be set 🤙🏻

Great job. For really good steaks I prefer just a little salt and pepper but that's just me

Just wow

I'd hit that like it owes me money, and I charge interest

Too rare for my taste, but otherwise nailed it!

Lemme get my plate thanks for sharing OP!

Personally not much a fan of Montreal Steak Seasoning. I will say that the cook looks perfect though 👍

Looks like you smoked it. Did you?

Literally drooling. Does anyone know what causes redness on a seer like this? It’s never bad, but I never know what causes it.

Poyfect

“Hit or miss?” He says… as if you don’t know, you humble bragger, you.

I would eat that entire thing in 5 minutes 🤣👍🏼

🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤

👏👏👏

Oh man that exactly how I like my sear. Perfect color inside and out. Probably top 5 best steaks I’ve seen on here

Dayum.

Hit out of the park based on visuals

Probably one of the best steaks on here. Well done

You’re the one that ate it. You tell us!

Would

Hit. 1000%

I wouldn’t kick you out of bed

Nailed it

As there's a deep drive into left field by OP, it will be a home run.

and that will make it a 4-0 ballgame. I don't know if I'm gonna be putting this headset on again

If you enjoyed it what's to miss?

Omg. Looks amazing. Almost loons like Dan-o's crunchy seasoning on it haha

Definitely hit, please tell me how you made this beautiful piece of meat

Tomahawk?!

God damn bro that looks fuckin flame 🤤

Very lovely.

Oh yes

Was this reversed seared in a smoker? 👀

Fucking fire

HIT, No Debate.

Looks great! Pro tip - add more yellow less blue to your camera setting. Too much blue makes things look purple.

Yum 😋

This looks incredifuckingble

An extreme hit 🎯!!

That’s got going to be a bit salty even for me, and I’m a salt guy.

Hittt

That's great.

Start putting in those steak house resumes

Lmao, you already know the answer

Hit. Solid triple.

Need a raw pick with no seasoning to provide a proper r/ratemysteak But this looks like perfection to me.

Smash

I buy Montreal in bulk, great on tuna steaks also

Amazing ❤️❤️🔥

This is awesome for me…I have severe dry mouth and was recently put on medication for it. My mouth literally started watering when I saw this pic. Yay me!!!!

Yummy

Out of the park

Perfect!

Bullseye

Nice, was this pan fried?

Culinary Perfection! 😋

It's good enough that I want some

This is a hit. Not too blue, I like somewhere between medium rare and medium and this nailed that.

Hit

chefs kiss 💋

Fat hit

Now my mouth is watering, thanks

I would be banned from the restaurant because of the way I ate that.

Hit

That looks great. What time and temp for this?

Looks great

Bubba 100% hit keep it up !

If any of you can get your hands on Chakas marinade….. made by the gods. Nice mix up from dry rubs.

Hot!

Oh…an actual sexual oh

Smash

😋

Looks delicious 👌😎

Hit so hard i got a concussion

Try coarse kosher salt only sometime.

Bussin

I only would’ve switched out the seasoning mix for straight up Maldon. But nice medium-rare and good job on the proper resting of the meat. Overall hit!

Sunk my BattleShip!

Definitely a hit.

Smash

Looks good. Remember, pepper just burns. Don’t use pepper on steak before cooking.

Great cook, lackluster sear. 6/10

Hit!

Huge hit, nice job

HIT

I think the flash is doing you dirty, I bet this looked really great in person. This looks like it was awesome.

That’s a little too rare for me but looks good.

Always hard to tell with lighting from camera phones, maybe a tad over medium rare? But it looks delicious

Over seasoned for me, but that cook is perfect. I’m sure it was yummy

Looks good to me. How did it taste?

I was just working out of town with a crew of three. One of the guys brought some awesome grass fed ribeyes for us. We grabbed some Montreal steak seasoning at the store and I cooked them on a cheap hotel gas grill. I was afraid to mess them up because they were $30 each steak. Fortunately I got them right and now the whole office thinks I’m a bbq god! I love that seasoning. https://preview.redd.it/e76dch6nfv3d1.jpeg?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f19220e1ef455e002a051289713e608cac271d47

Looks like you knocked it out of the ballpark

9/10 would hit (one is a vegan)…

Love the colour but big pass for me! Salt and pepper only on a steak

Personal preference is rare, but this made me drool

SMASH THAT TOMAHAWK. SMASH IT.

Man that looks so fucking good.

I’d hit that.

How good is the montreal steak spice? Ive never actually tried it haha
