Thank you from a British farmer

Too ill to cook myself, but looking at this my mouth is watering--rare fillet and chips--the world's best food. Great job. Cheers from New Jersey Pat

Prefer a ribeye myself think it cooks better with a bit of fat Frying pan or grill for me but nice to see how some of these gadgets compare thanks great vlog

That steak looked nice ~ I like them still mooing I used to get the Aldi 21 day Sirloin and cook it for 1 minute in the George Formby grill, cheaper than fillet and good flavour. Last time I went shopping, however, I spotted a steak on the reduced counter in Morrisons, and, as I can't resist a yellow sticker I bought it. A Morrisons 'The Best Shorthorn sirloin steak' matured for 21 days, 227g (8oz) and the most delicious steak I have ever eaten 😍😋👌 You have to try one!

I thought your Air Fryer was being polite, when it flashed "HI" on its display! 😂 I buy Ashfield Steaks at Aldi. Have you tried Ashfield ready to eat Sliced Roast Beef from the chiller? It's really nice! Good for sandwiches, and I also use it for a quick and easy Roast Beef Dinner. Yum! Keep up the good work Gareth, we all love you!

Great content as usual mate, I've just bought an air fryer after watching your vids and it's been a revelation. Keep up the great work 👍👍👏👏

Think I'll get a ninja after the year, I'm probably the only man left who doesn't own an air fryer.

Me and my husband are new subscribers👍 we love your videos and we have an air fryer too 👍😊 looking forward to seeing more videos

Love fillet steak like mine medium rare but would have had mine done a tiny bit more Loved the video

Great job and timely as I've bought some fillet for the weekend. You've given me confidence to try it in my air fryer although I'll sear it in the pan first!

Thanks Gareth, another good vid. The build up commentary had me on the edge of my seat, better than a spaghetti western…

That steak looked spot on Gareth. I'm having a nice piece of Ribeye myself tonight with chips cooked in the air fryer, and peas, and fried mushrooms, can't wait after watching this!

Truly mouthwatering fillet,home made chips in air fryer are absolutely wonderful too

Morrisons bavette or flat iron steaks are really good. Two packs for £7.00

That did look nice ,maybe could have done to be cooked a bit longer,but like you said Gaz ,it's a learning curve 😊👍

Steak looks delicious chips look nice too. I agree with you about washing your hands I do the same when cooking

I'm afraid to me, the steak still looked raw in the middle. I would have cut in half first so it wouldn't be so thick. But then again, I like my steak well done. Cheers mate !

I got a bit adventurous a while back and bought myself a sous vide and accompanying paraphernalia. For those who haven't heard of sous vide, it is cooking in vacuum sealed bags for a long time at very precise low temperatures. Steaks come out tender and moist though lacking in colour. A quick fry in the pan and the steaks are beautiful and tasty. At one time sous vide was only found in the best restaurants because the equipment was very expensive. These days any one can afford to buy a sous vide and enjoy meals that were once only the preserve of the very rich. Thought you might like to give it a try Gareth.

Cooked to perfection ☺ I prefer ribeye, and Aldi's is great, we use Iceland skin on chips in a blue bag Enjoyable video ☺ 👍

I didn't think you was going to season the steak but you redeemed it at the end nothing but honest content. SPOT ON!

That’s still alive Gareth I like mine medium Had one the other week I just pan fried for 3 mins either side then rested in tinfoil for 5 mins Incredible value The peppercorn sauce sachet from Lidl is pennies and it’s lovely Triple cooked chips and beer battered onion rings from Lidl to go with it Good video 👍

Sorry for blah. Respect your reviews and love your down to earth honest channel. Thanks for interesting stuff every time.

Tesco do a similar version, same weight at 170 Gm but slightly dearer at £5. I like the look of the Aldi steak because it’s thicker so easier to cook medium rare. I put a small amount of oil on the steak and then sprinkle on some Sainsbury’s steak seasoning. I prefer the option of a jacket potato rather than chips.

170 gms on the packet..and I always bash steak a bit to flatten it and break the fibres up a bit, it helps to cook it evenly. :)

You know what mate I really am absolutely spot on thanks to all your videos. 🙂

One thing our air fryer can't do is steak to be honest.

You walley, you have to have the lid closed for the fryer to get to the required temp. Each time you open the lid it cools down a bit for example when you mix or turn the chips over then re lose the lid so as to get up to temp again - no different than using a regular oven such that it cooled down when you open the door and heats up again when it is closed.

Just the way I like my steak done m8, Mooing 10 minutes ago. Brilliant video, got me hungry. instant sub.

Ruddy great 170 g symbol 😂. Cmon man keep with the program

I bought a Cosori Air fryer a few months back, it's brilliant and cooks a mean steak to perfection in about 8 mins, I flip it once, let it rest. Love your vids.

I know I'm late to the show, but the information at 2m47s shows you that it was slaughtered by Woolley Bros in Sheffield ("GB 2241"), cut by the same company and then further cut by Scotsbeef in Glasgow, which also packaged it eventually ("UK 1715 EC" in the roundish thing is the packager information, and 1715 is Scotsbeef).

That steak is too rare for my liking. But it is difficult to judge the timing on a thick steak, which is why I always buy ribeye. I don't like steak well done, though. Just not quite as raw as shown here.

OMG a piece of fillet for less than a fiver. Cyprus cows are tough - Lidl sell the good stuff but a piece like yours would cost towards 25 euros! Consequently, not eaten steak for years. Hope you enjoyed yours.x

PERFECTLY COOKED STEAK!!

I love these lessons/experiments with the Air Fryer, it's as you said Gareth, trial and error, you can't go wrong if you start little and increase. I missed my lunch today and I would chew your arm off for that steak and chips, delicious. Keep it up pal, soon be on 17K!

fair play on the kitchen towel mate helps it sear... theres 2 ways to cook a steak, pan fry or bbq

That to was was cooked perfectly well done

Cooked just the way I like it. Looks good mate 😋

I do agree that it's a lot simpler cooking a steak in a frying pan 😋 but as you say it's how we learn...loving your videos..your my new fav to watch thanks to you tube recommendations ❤

I'm spot on gaz very nice steak and chips . Love a great steak don't forget lotto tonight

Looks like a great piece of Steak I good guide to cooing times is if it shows oven times take a third of the time for an air fryer and if it shows grill times as this did 180 at grill time shown be good but it depends how the individual likes it of course. Keep up the great work and enjoy the weekend.

That steak looks gorgeous, Just how I like it , I could just eat that now with some mushrooms, Peas, Onion Rings . Cheers Gareth 👍

Your new temperature probe would have been ideal. If you Google steak temperature it will give you the temp you like. From memory 135 for medium rare. Allow for 'carry over'. Looked great btw! Especially those fries. 'Steak Frites' a French and Belgium national dish. Some Bearnaise sauce would have been nice on the side😋

I like my steak a little bit more done but it looks incredible, thanks jealous now lol

Mate i love steak my fav meal it looked so good enjoy 😊😊💯

Wow bit raw looking big man , I like mines cooked that looks like it’s running at ascot the morra 😂😂😂👍👍👍

People often think that the red liquid that comes out of rare cooked steak is blood, it’s actually called myoglobin.

Hi Gareth have you tried Young's chipshoo extra large battered Pollock fillets from farmfoods I think they are a bargain @ £1.25 for a pack of 2 you also get Harry Ramsdens mushy peas 3 tins for a pound from the same shop maybe worth a review I cooked the fish in my new ninja foodie air fryer perfection. Have a nice weekend Cheers Pete 😎

Great video had me watching.....but use the pan on the hob so simple.....Glad I saw this because everyone has told me how wonderful their air fryer is....I'll stick to my hob and oven....and combi microwave.

That looks delicious for sure and for certain!

Looked a great piece of meat, surprised it wasn't still mooing on the plate to be fair, I like mid-rare but that was too rare for me 🤣

Hi Gareth Yes these steaks look so nice! But Would you consider re doing this one again and cook the steak well done please! I personally always ask for my steak to be well Done! and the first thing i do is to cut it in half and if its pink it goes back to be cooked longer. Cheers Martin

Perfect timing. Following your lead I got the air fryer a couple of days ago. So far had sea bass and hand cut fries, KFC style chicken thighs and fries and tomorrow a couple of steaks. Watching your video I am thinking 6 minutes at 200. Having had the air fryer for a couple of day’s I think the different settings mean very little, all that changes is the pre set heat.

So so good Garath 👍 one of my favorites 😍 ❤ Perfect yes ! That has been a good job with the air fryer Lyndax

Love all your cook videos. I recently bought an air frier and don't have a clue so I'm learning from / with you. Blokes love to experiment 👍

My fav meal..Can't believe how well that cooked in the air fryer..But FFS red sauce???,that was crying out for a proper brandy pepper sauce...good luck

Thanks for reply. Think airfry good for parboiled roast crispy spuds but they still need evoo. Or other oil. Airfry things very noisey in kitchen and take toooo long before food crisp or brown. Better to put in 180c oven on tray for 30-40 mins. Drizzled with dripping obv.. Beef dripping with the black stuff on the bottom!!!

I say enjoy every mouthful Gareth cos if you have the misfortune to contract diabetes these delicious dishes will become a very rare treat..

Love Aldi steaks, such good value for money and really tasty.

I like mine a blushing pink. Yours was a little bit too rare for me. But we’re all different on choices. It looked good anyway. Well done again 👍

I tried the aldi matured steak too and it was an excellent steak.

Looked a trifle raw for my liking but you did a nice job of it. Im just wondering would pressure cooking it first for 5 mins have helped with the process similar to like you did with the Brisket? But yes its a learning curve. Im learning and getting ideas from you that I can do with my Ninja Foodie Max. So your videos are great. Cheers!

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 another great job buddy 👏👏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Can't beat a decent bit of rare fillet. I tend to get mine at Lidl as around here (Hull) it is definitely more tender than Aldi. Mind you that looked spot on from Aldi that time. My misses keeps nagging me to get an air fryer and to dump my trusty old deep fat fryer. I'm still not quite sold on one yet. I'll watch a few more of your reviews first...

love your facial expressions when you taste the stuff you have cooked. looks lovely though. but have to be cooked well done for me lol .made me hungry now & I would have to have mushrooms & fried onions and some salad with it .thats my dinner tomorrow sorted now

just binge watching all your videos . on this one when you switched on your air fryer it said Hi 😂🤣 I thought it was greeting you no the temperature . great videos great content . from a thicky Horwicher lol x

Yes another sucessful experminent looks good.

Looked gud but I wud cook the steak longer 😋

Ribeye is my favourite. On the rack 4 minutes per side perfect

I cooked some Iceland Paella and some Iceland Fridays Ribs tonight. I said to the missus as I put them on the table, "this is that, this is them" , as she just looked at me confused lol

Hi Gareth i sear saute 3mins each side and air crisp for 3 mins great job now then my youtube freind how is your good lady coping with your take over in the kitchen ??? my mrs gets a bit grumpy now and again but the plates are allways empty at the end of the meal stay safe ATB

After watching the steak an Ninja air fryer is on my Christmas list!

I know you said you prefer medium rare to medium but that was rare but still looked good

looks absolutely smashing . keep on good work

That looks so good. Might try it with a bit of sirloin.

You gotta love fillet! Gaz, you're knocking on the door of 17k now! Brilliant... flying up there! Hoppers😉

Gary, I intend to cook everything fryable and roastable in my new air-fryer. Looking forward to treating myself to a rib-eye for my birthday in October. I'll have it with thick chips, asparagus, tomatoes, mushrooms, and a nice hime-made "secret sauce"...my own recipe.

packaging said 170g which equals 5.9oz ... your scales were ... 'spot on!' ... lol

I think a sous vide circulator would be a good purchase for the channel. It basically lets you cook things in water in a vacuum bag or a ziplock at a very specific temperature, which the circulator (usually a ‘wand) maintains. The meat reaches an equilibrium with the water bath and never overcooks, so you always get the perfect steak with no grey rings and no risk of overcooking or undercooking. There’s also no particular rush to get the meat out of the bag. You’d cook a fillet steak at somewhere around 54c for an hour or so to get it perfectly medium rare. You can get really big ziplock bags at Aldi and it’ll be a great thing to try out with steaks like this, as well as other random experimental things like beefburgers! You just pay them dry at the end of cooking and sear them for a minute in a searing hot pan to brown them off.

Love a good bloody steak. Need some peppercorn sauce though

Hi Gareth nice video on your steak & chips, from ALDI but I think you need to back and try there turkey& stuffing crisp for 79p per bag and let me if you like. Regards.........Barry.

Aldi and Lidl steaks are really nice.

Hey Gareth,nearly at 17k....god job my man !....😊

The weight of the meat was 170g. Said on the reverse packet. Very hard to find good quality meat. Too much is too chewy and gristle. The last restaurant steak I had was a sirloin of which only half was edible. Air fryer ? You’ve sold it to me. Makes sense. Less mess and the food is coming out great.

Hairdryer 😸love it

Good old frying pan and cooked in butter does for me.

Looks fantastic I am trying desserts at the moment,chocolate dishes.Well done.

Same beef dripping no.1 on slightly burnt toast with salt and big mug Yorkshire tea.3 sugars.

Looks bloddy delicious hun!!! Cooked lovely, rare but Best to have it pink .. nice one x

Looks like the cow is still alive about to say moo 🐮 lol 😂 I like mines well done . Hope you enjoyed it.

mama always said "juices should run clear" in all meats that you cook. those juices ran red. while i understand how people like to eat meat that way, i personally couldnt do it. to me thats a petri dish waiting for lodgers. thats the sort of stuff that would put someone like me in a hospital with extreme food poisoning. those fries though wow, and yummy, and give me more! either way gareth, a good review.

I'm only 30 sec's in so far and paused it. Now I have that same steak every week and I absolutely love it,will you to. I also do my chips in an air-fryer which are also great. I predict by the end of watching this vid' your answer will be the same as mine....roll the tape !

I need an air fryer!!! That steak looks super yummy man !! I love crispy food

Fab " tinkering" mate 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Great vid pal 👌🏻👍🏻

Tomato sauce 😂 all about the peppercorn for me and steak, good vid mate

Went to stay with my wifes' family in USA, went out for a steal dinner, asked for fried onions and a fried egg, and proper chips instead of a baked potato, it was like I was EVIL!!!

Ooooh lovely, and just how I like my steak, which is rare. Mushrooms and watercress would top this off

That salt and pepper seasoning with the chilli flakes that I sent works well on steak.

You did a great job with that lovely steak Can't beat good British steak and chips But I like to cook a little longer But everyone have there own preference Pet so enjoy SPOT ON X Have a Good Weekend 🌹 👍 All x

I think they were more French Fries, not “chips”. I’m sure I saw a weight of 170gm on the back of the pack 😵‍💫😵‍💫. In answer to your question, I like all cuts of steak. But for me, I do really like Sirloin as my go to steak. Add to that some chips and a creamy mushroom and pepper sauce. Sometimes I go for either a large grilled tomato or a fried egg. Yum yum. 👍🏻👍🏻.
