โLooks like itโs been cooked over a heated argument.โ
โArgentina has so much cattle they make pizza with it ๐โ
โI had an Italian girlfriend... She also liked 3 fingers.โ
โArgentinian here. Fantastic. You're probably the first foreigner that I see cooking matambre that takes care of actually "tenderizing" the meat before throwing it to the grill. That is an *extremely* important step: in particular, let me point out that almost nobody in Argentina tenderizes the meat the way you did (though what you did seemed okay to me). Typically, we would put this into a regular oven (or a dutch oven) covered with milk and spices and let it cook there at 80-90 degrees (Celsius) for two hours. After that process, matambre becomes extremely tender and with 5 minutes per side on the grill becomes the pinacle of meat on Earth.โ
โRare? Buddy that's legendaryโ
โ"How would you like your steak cooked?" "Just walk the cow through a warm room."โ
โBrazilian here. Yep, good job researching, mate. Picanha's main asset is that fat, which is absolutely delicious and melts in your mouth if cooked properly. We usually do thicker cuts and in barbecue joints it's served a bit different, but it's good as long as it's pink.โ
โSouth Africa approvesโค๐ฟ๐ฆโ
โI live in the Midwest of the United States I never knew that people made the crust out of meat my life has just changed thank youโ
โThose knife skills are a thrill to watchโ
โ"Take a little knob out"... Been doing that years mate ๐โ
โNext my mind went "In Argentina, they don't use buns for hamburgers. They use steaks!"โ
โHe's spot on but it comes down to affordability. A family on a living wage cannot afford the quality butchers bought chicken sadly.โ
โI'll buy quality chicken when my boss pays me quality wagesโ
โButchers are the salt of the earthโ
โcan confirm spent 2 years in prison for south Africa after making this mistakeโ
โNo music, no stupid AI voiceover, informative and entertaining, thank you, this is what YouTube should be, and lots of meat mmm yum.โ
โI'm all for supporting your local butcher but ยฃ4.95 per breast is absolute madnessโ
โAmazing Matambre my friend! One note for those who want to test it, generally here in Argentina we first boil it in a mix of milk and water/vegetables soup. As he says, it's a real hard meat, so giving it a good cook by boilling it you leave it really tender. Once you have it tender you can put it down in the grill to cook it. You can make it "A la fugazzeta" with mozzarella cheese and onions, that's my favourite one :)โ
โMy mother-in-law is more marbled; raised on beer, complete laziness, and being catered to hand and foot by my poor wife. ๐ ๐ฎโ
โYou could sell sand to an Arab with that enthusiasm!โ
โIt's not quality, it's affordability.โ
โAs a South African , itโs so refreshing to see someone get it right and the respect given to this process !!โ
โdude sounds like barry scott trying sell me some cillit bang.โ
