Not many ingredients have changed the way I cook steaks. However after today's ginger experiment everything has changed. As you know ginger tastes amazing with steaks. But what I didn't know was that it can also tenderize steaks. Does it really work? Let's find out.

This is why I like marinating with ginger and lime--both have tenderizing effect and infuse a nice flavor (with some chili, garlic and coriander). You can easily over-marinate them though, particularly given that the tenderizing effects of ginger and lime compound (imagine if you used lime juice instead of water for your slurry).

Gordon Ramsay is a terrible cook, has a potty mouth, and treats other people like trash. His distinct lack of character carries over to his skills as a chef. A person either has to be drunk or clueless to like Gordon Ramsay's food and personality. If you want to learn how to cook good food that people will want to eat, Chef Jean-Pierre is superior to Gordon Ramsay in every way that matters. Chef Jean-Pierre's cooking is very similar to how I've always prepared food (i.e. the right way to make food). Fair warning though: Chef Jean-Pierre loves butter a little bit too much, but is otherwise spot on in bringing good flavor and texture combinations into home cooking. Just scale back the amount of butter and his recipes are fine. I've been cooking a long time and had my cooking skills hammered into me by my relatives but I still pick up a few tips and tricks here and there on KZfaq. A good cook can take any recipe and evaluate it mentally without actually making it to determine exactly what it will taste like.

Did this on the 4 hour marinade last Saturday and it works like a dream, used a Ribeye and cut it in two so I had a direct comparison (Guga style) and the colour changed as in the video and the tenderness was much improved. Today I got me a Rump as the flavour is lovely but the pay off is it is a bit tougher so this ginger puree can work its magic for me. Another plus point is the very subtle ginger notes right in the background, like the boys in the video, they did not know what the marinade was so could not call it, but it adds a great extra layer to a beautiful steak. Cheers Guga for the lesson, gonna get a fat Pork chop and use the ginger on that, I reckon it will be pretty good.

I have made the “Guga Steak,” on numerous occasions, following your example of rotating the grates to keep flare-ups controlled and to develop a nice crust as opposed to Ponderosa style grill marks. Even bought your rub to add to the butter that I baste my steaks with after the simple SPG seasoning. And Fogo lump definitely makes a difference in the flavor!

@protorhinocerator142 3 ай бұрын
@@kzizzles8329 I didn't like the ginger puree. I did it for 24 hours and the steak was mush. I tried it again for 1 hour and it made it slightly mush. It wasn't "tender" like you'd hope. It tasted pre-chewed. Like those weird shrimp that were sitting out too long at the buffet and they're all mushy with all the wrong texture. That and it was extra effort to do all the ginger stuff. No thanks. If you want them tender, do it the old fashioned way. Apply sea salt to both sides of the steak about an hour before cooking. The salt gets in and breaks down the chemical composition, leaving it tender, but not making it mushy. I do salt and the McCormick garlic and herb seasoning, then just a spalsh of Worcestershire to make a briny paste. The Worcestershire goes from an acidic brine flavor to a savory delight when you grill the steaks. I've tried it with and without Worcestershire. With is better. And I'm not a big fan of raw Worcestershire sauce. It tastes weird to me. Definitely try this instead of the ginger next time you feel adventurous. And it's a lot less work than fooling with ginger.

Tried this yesterday on four 1.75" thick strip steaks I marinated for about 6 hours. My results were not quite as good as this. The ginger slurry did seem to tenderize the meat some, but not so much that I felt it was worth the time. Also, the residual ginger flavor was FAR stronger than the video would lead you to believe. Out of the three of us eating yesterday, my wife didn't like it all (the ginger tasted too "green" she said), I thought it was OK, and my son thought it was the best steak he'd ever had.

Hello Guga! I’ve heard that Papaya (Lechoza) is a great meat tenderizer and that what makes it greater is that it doesn’t leave an aftertaste. You should make a video of that experiment. Love your channel! Keep up the good work!

You should try Garam Masala (Indian seasoning mix) - it has ginger among a bunch of other spices & herbs. I've used it for steaks multiple times and it is AMAZING.
@SeanStrife 11 ай бұрын
I've actually never considered using Garam Masala on steaks before; it just feels wrong to me for some reason considering beef is pretty much non-existent in Indian cuisine. I might have to try this some time.

I'm with Sean on this one. Garam masala is one of my favorite aromas in my spice cabinet, but I've never considered it for steak. I'll have to pick a steak up on the way home tomorrow and conduct that experiment. Thanks for the idea!

There’s a reason why people put octopus inside. The filling inside takoyaki must be chewy instead of something soft.

@bkb04g 10 ай бұрын
Damn it was that flavorful and tender?? Could you still taste the beef or did the ginger overpower the steak?
@andyC95 10 ай бұрын
@@bkb04g yeah, I couldn't believe it. I just lightly rinsed it off, and you can tell it's there but it more enhances the beef flavor than anything. The only issue I've found is that the edges can get mushy if you leave it in too long. For ribeye I just left it in for an hour or so and it was perfect.
@tamoghnaguha7898 11 ай бұрын
In India ginger, garlic pastes and onion - either as paste or raw or fried are almost always added to the meat. They tenderize as well as compliment the meat flavour. However, we never use as much ginger as you did😂

@aricrudd6579 11 ай бұрын
One caveat about the incredible side dish, it’s not takoyaki. The “tako” literally means octopus, so no octopus = not takoyaki. Also, the springiness and chewiness is part of the charm, so I can’t get behind the steak filling at all. I am DEFINITELY doing the ginger, though.
@nerd26373 11 ай бұрын
Ginger is known to enhance the quality and flavor of meat intended to be grilled as steak. As far as I know, not a lot of chefs incorporate these kinds of spices into their own steaks. Mostly just salt and pepper. End of story.

Being able to sear the meat after is important. I recently marinated a tri-tip with a ginger and soy sauce based marinade for between 12 and 24 hours. To make a long story short, I wound up having to try to sear in a family members under oven broiler drawer. Only one side got seared properly, and when slicing, I found that the other side was shredding and a bit soft. Everyone liked it, but I knew it was a bit off. The first time I marinated with the same recipe, I smoked the tri-tip a couple hours on my Webber 22” and then finished up with a good sear, did not have the same issue.

Yep, we do Guga steaks that have been tenderized in cashew yogurt (tenderized) for a week. Seasoned like a Guga steak, cooked on an SnS, and watched for doneness with Meater thermometers. Even my most picky eater (son) loves Guga steaks.

Great idea and a great vid guys! Thank you! I tried it yesterday on a t-bone steak. I added soy sauce and water to the ginger marinade and let it marinade for 8 hours. I then put it on a pellet grill/smoker at 325* till it hit 135-138. I had a control t-bone as well, both packaged together from a butcher.(they were a gift from some friends) It DEFINITLY made it more tender than the control! Actually a little too much for my taste. There was a little bit of tenderloin on that t-bone and it turned it into mush. Very unpleasant texture. lol Will be trying again for 4 hours with more soy sauce added to the marinade. Thank you for the idea to try something different! Keep up the great work on research and video quality! Have a great weekend!
