Ribeye twilight zone……

[smokenoob]

A man goes to the butcher and has him cut a 1.5” prime ribeye. He cooks it in sous vide and sears it in a CI pan along with olive oil, garlic, rosemary, and butter. He decides he better balance it with a spinach salad, topped with fresh carrots, tomatoes, and avocado topped with blue cheese dressing. Of course there is a small side of crispy air fried potatoes that beg to be crunched with mayonnaise. The man soon realizes he cannot finish the whole meal, what does he do? Leftover ribeye or leftover salad?
I ate the whole ribeye, leftover ribeye jus ain’t as good as leftover salad. What you say?
luckily I wasn’t on an airliner and I didn’t see that creature out the window…… do do do do….do do do do…..
what, no pics allowed in a poll?

[smokenoob]

pics😀

[Panhead John]

Jerry, you can put pics in your poll. Just insert your pics into the post, along with your wording, just like a normal post. Then, do the “poll” part last. That’s what I do anyway.

[Panhead John]

I’ll be shocked if people here vote to eat the whole ribeye! 🙄

[smokenoob]

ha ja ja …..me too 😂 jus checking …..

Option #4 Steak and eggs the next morning, That's what I do.

Edit: Got real excited reading the title, Ribeye twilight zone, And your pictures were a perfect dinner.

[smokenoob]

ok, meebe shoulda said “ toss the salad” 👍😂

[HawkerXP]

Steak eggs and potatoes in the morning. Give the wife the salad.

[prepperjack]

Yeah, that's what I would do! When I go out for steak, I always get the biggest ribeye they have even though I can only eat about 8 oz. along with a salad, and I normally let my boys have at the fries after they've soaked up all the juicy goodness of the steak.

[smokenoob]

Wow, looks like salad eaters, and Alka-Seltzer are tied at the moment.😳

[Panhead John]

Gotta admit, I would save part of the ribeye for steak n eggs the next morning….😍

[MsTwiggy]

I mean the thing is that leftover salad is disgusting. I can only eat the perkiest salad and then i love it but anything less than that is basically compost. So eat the salad, am I right? 🔥🔥🐿️

[MsTwiggy]

There is no chili in Seattle smokenoob only bean soup 😉🔥🔥🐿️

[smokenoob]

said the girl with a Texan in her eye….😀

[CaptainMike]

I'm with you on this one, Twiggs.

[Mosca]

I would have to divide this into what I would WANT to do, and what I CAN do. I would want to eat everything. But I can’t anymore. That’s what I’m going to vote for, though, because this is a twilight zone episode.

I’d eat half of each. I guarantee you I can turn that ribeye on its side and cut 6 or more slices out of it for steak sandwiches, with butter, mustard, and horseradish. Or steak club sandwiches, with bacon lettuce tomato and cheese.

The salad will be breakfast the next day, with hard boiled eggs on top.

[texastweeter]

Or Philly cheesesteak, or a steak omlet.

[hoovarmin]

I voted to eat both but honestly, what Tom says is always right, this time no exception.

[Panhead John]

hoovarmin Don’t you just hate it when people here post thoughtful, intelligent comments that make sense? I want lies and hype damnit!

[smokenoob]

holy cr@p, eat them both just took the lead 😳, dry January is long past!

[texastweeter]

Eat it all. If forced to chose, salad is way cheaper than ribeye...

[barelfly]

Ribeye can make some great tacos the next day

[texastweeter]

I knew it!

[barelfly]

texastweeter …..I mean….any question you have….tacos are the answer 😂🌮

[Donw]

Same here. Any leftover steak or pork chops become tacos the next day. For someone who had no idea what a tortilla was growing up they have become a staple in our house.

[DaveD]

I say eat the ribeye because it will never be better than it is right after you cook it. But of course eat as much salad as you can as well!

[smokenoob]

that’s what I was thinking, leftover ribeye, loses a lot

[Donw]

This question certainly had me flash back to high school and the SAT.
If he does it on a train the answer is 61.5 mile per hour and they meet at station C.

[smokenoob]

on Saturday…..

[DavidNorcross]

I am eating the steak and saving the salad for lunch the next day.

[Duanessmokedmeats]

Should had another choice: Eat the whole thing, and burp (to release the gas build up).

[TripleB]

Once a salad is dressed, it will be soggy the next day. Eat salad, save ribeye and reheat responsibly.

[smokenoob]

but but but….I can make another salad tomorrow and a ribeye just won’t taste the same tomorrow. I’m leaning toward eatt both and alka seltzer 🤪

[TripleB]

smokenoob - you're changing the perimeters of the poll. I agree, why save a salad - they're cheap to make. When I reheat a ribeye or any steak, they taste pretty darn good. Never microwave a steak to reheat.
