honestly I think you can make a better steak FRS at home than you can at most restaurants and yes it takes a little bit of time and effort but if you ask me the things that are worth doing in life require that the fries get cooked three times I first poach them in salted vinegar water and then double fry them once at a lower temperature and again at a higher one I finish my fries with rosemary salt because what’s better than that and then I get to work on my steak which gets seasoned up seared and then Bas it with butter and aromatics till it’s a perfect medium rare in the same pan I make a sauce from red wine balsamic vinegar beef stock thyme black pepper and butter and if that’s not rich enough for you let’s finish it off with a spiced compound butter

  2. You really have grown on me over the years. I truly love your videos. My first chief was the Frugal Gourmet at 9 years old

  3. Generally at restaurants, they don't let me go to the kitchen to make my own steak frites, so yeah, I probably would be able to make a better one at home.

  4. Haven't seen this guys shorts in ages. Seems like he's calmed down his all the screaming lol but he still has a rivalry with that fridge

  5. I used to do this in dutch ovens on group camping trips. Running 25lbs of potatoes over a mandolin w/out a guard and far away from an emergency (while partying) was risky behavior but …WYKYK

  6. Went to a highly rated steak fritas restaurant in France once. Stood in line for well over 1.5 hrs, and spent $50 per person. And it absolutely sucked. Never again. You're better off making it at home.
