“Sink, beef!”

[-] Washedupcynic@lemmy.ca 2 points 9 hours ago

You're supposed to leave the beef wrapped in the plastic to thaw it like that. 🤢 I like girl dinner better.

[-] daannii@lemmy.world 3 points 18 hours ago

I miss r/forbidden snacks

Basically for posting things that looked delicious but we're in fact, not food.

[-] Godric@lemmy.world 2 points 18 hours ago

Anything's a snack if you're man enough

OK, next time you make dinner, jerk!

[-] Proprietary_Blend@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Unbelievable.

[-] dan69@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Wat did ur sink do to have beef??!??

[-] MountingSuspicion@reddthat.com 20 points 2 days ago

Oh god. This just reminded me that I had to teach this guy I dated that you can defrost things in the container they came in. I don't know why, but he had it in his head that if you keep it in the original packaging it keeps the cold in forever(?) and it'll never defrost. He used to do this exact thing. He would just open a whole package of beef or chicken breast and dump it into water or on a plate and just leave it to defrost for hours. I am mostly just assuming it's more sanitary to keep things in the sealed packaging for as long as possible, but it just seemed so gross to leave things open on the counter for hours. This post gave me flashbacks. Really wish that whole time had stayed forgotten. Thanks OP.

I hope someday it just blows his mind when he learns that you can just move stuff to the fridge a day before you need it.

[-] gastroglizzy@piefed.social 9 points 2 days ago

You can also just cook frozen ground beef. If the first step is browning the meat in the pan, just toss the frozen brick in there.

You're still out of luck if you want hamburgers or meatloaf or something.

With chicken, you can just put it in the oven or crock pot still frozen, just allow extra time to cook and temp it first. It's best to cook it in sauce or something if you're gonna do that though since you can't really season frozen chicken.

I mean, there is an element of truth to what he's saying. The styrofoam packaging does do a good job at insulating its contents and it will thaw much faster if you remove it, BUT you should place it in a bag if you're going to use water.

Thawing in water is fine to do, there are methods for using cold water baths and, if using thin cuts, warm water baths. Either way, you have to know what you're doing and it's not a "set it and forget it" process.

Thawing on the counter is dangerous though. Don't do that.

It's frozen. This is an idiot's attempt to defrost it quickly.

[-] agent_nycto@lemmy.world 2 points 10 hours ago
[-] deadbeef79000 2 points 6 hours ago

Beef still contains a lot of water, enough to float when frozen.

[-] Godric@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago

It's called steak tartare, you uncivilized fool!

[-] deadbeef79000 4 points 2 days ago

Which is also, famously, not frozen.

[-] Godric@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago

Ooooohhh, look at Dr. Fancy Pants with the refrigerator. Some of us store our beef in the snowbank, like Men.

[-] zergtoshi@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Why do you store men in the snowbank?
What don't you tell us?

[-] Godric@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

HEY! Mind your own goddamned whoreson business, before someone minds it for you

[-] zergtoshi@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Oh, I hit a nerve!
And something smells fishy.
Are you sure the snowbank is still cooling or has it fallen victim to a remote attack and started heating instead?

[-] okwhateverdude@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

At least put it in a ziplock or something

Where's the rage in that, tho?

[-] gigastasio@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

Put Arby’s sauce in the ziplock too.

[-] restingOface@quokk.au 5 points 2 days ago

We all float down here

[-] iocase@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Hot water in a filthy sink. Nothing thaws frozen ground beef faster.

[-] gastroglizzy@piefed.social 6 points 2 days ago

He's using hot water, that's a sous vide chop steak

[-] Ariselas@piefed.ca 3 points 1 day ago

I can't be the only one who's done this, I know because that isn't my picture.

[-] yopyop@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I thought this was a Fight Club reference ¯\(ツ)/¯

fight club, dust brothers

[-] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago

Don't forget to filter the water to recoup the meat particles!

[-] vogi@piefed.social 5 points 2 days ago

I love "sink beef" by Boy Dinner, truly underrated. Glad to see it getting some recognition it deserves.

[-] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

If you make this for me, you better let me sink my beef into your ass afterwards

[-] deacon@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

The garbage disposal gives the marinade a nice tangy zing, I’ve found.

[-] OwOarchist@pawb.social 5 points 2 days ago

Toss in some potatoes, onions, and carrots. Add heat and spices. You've got yourself a stew going!

[-] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 2 days ago

For this to be a "boy dinner" post the title need to be something that sounds like a lyric from an 80s country song. "My girl left me and took the truck. Now my dog is sick, I got no luck"

[-] snooggums@piefed.world 8 points 2 days ago

🪕I got arrested and thrown in the clink.🪕

[-] DjangoFett@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 days ago

Dude is taking the term "brick" way too literal. No excuse for that if you're not in jail, bro.

Almost as many hormones as girl dinner.
