Thread 21672804

I was eating this awesome picanha steak, it was juicy and everything despite messing up the fibre slicing thing, however there was something that disturbed me and it was that non chewable thin membrane between the fat cap and the actual meat, which I had to spit after each bite and give to my dog. Gross.

How on earth am I supposed to remove that shit before choking and fucking dying?

>>21672804 (OP)
Silverskin?

It was a good steak.

>>21672814
Sounds like a jewish surname, so that has to be it.

>>21672822
What the fuck cut even is that

>>21672829
Picanha cut with a non sharpened knife :^)

christ euros are absolute retards

>>21672830
>Irish Nature
uh..

>>21672804 (OP)
you like to eat it raw because eomeone told you to just let someone tell you that the non chewable thin membrane is cuisine kino

>>21672830
So brisket?

>>21672844
What's wrong with it? I like Mick's beef, I also buy their beef ribs.

>>21672852
Can't you see the label?

It's picanha but it's also called beef rump cap in your language.

What's the meaning of the lines under the arrow?

silverskin

With a sharp knife

>>21672872
How do I remove that silver skin without separating the fat cap from the meat? It's between them

>>21672863
It's going to be hilarious when gen x wins the civil war by openly discussing battle plans in cursive.

>How do I remove that silver skin without separating the fat cap from the meat? It's between them
If it's actually between them all the way through then you can't. Silverskin isn't usually between the meat and a fat cap though, or if it is it usually only extends a small amount under the fat. Did it actually make a complete layer between the meat and fat for you?

>>21672873
Just for like one second use your brain, idk

>>21672886
Yep

>>21672889
I don't know what to do apart from separating the fat cap and removing the SS.
I could cook the steak as I sear the fat cap and then place everything in the same plate, idk.

>>21672893
>Yep
Then you would have to separate the fat cap to remove the silverskin. Not actually a big issue aside from aesthetics.

>>21672893
Bro, I know you're ragebaiting but you're lucky I have the day off and nothing better to do than teach retards online basic shit that anyone could think through with minimal effort.

Why did I even bother? I just realized I gave you a tutorial for cutting and eating meat. If you couldn't figure that out, you shouldn't be allowed around a knife.

>>21672900
That is what I did while I was eating the steak.
I was wondering if there was a way to do it before cooking the steak, but apparently it can't be done.

I like fighting with the silverskin stuck between my molars with my tongue

Deal with it until we can grow decent meat in the lab

>>21672904
it's obvious to a braindead toddler that it couldn't be done. some being so goddamn retarded.

>>21672915
When I eat restaurant steaks I never find silver skins and non chewable pieces in my steaks.

>>21672918
Are you eating at Brazilian steakhouses? If not, then you weren't eating picanha, which almost always has that kind of silverskin to varying degrees. Do you think all cuts of meat are the same or what? NY strip is notorious for its little bit of cartilage/silverskin between the fat cap and eye, but there aren't many other popular cuts that have that sort of thing, or at least not as obtrusively so.

>>21672920
I see.

Now I'd like to experiment and see if I can trim the fat cap, remove the silver skin and "glue" the fat cap back to the meat using something sticky like honey.

>>21672927
You're making me laugh hard, thanks anon.
Before you try that, why don't you try and see what happens when you add honey to a scalding hot pan.

>>21672829
It's the top sirloin cap. Down Mexico way they call it picanha.

>>21672804 (OP)
You have dainty little chick fingers. Tits or gtfo

>>21672932
Not in the pan, I was thinking before serving the cooked meat to my guests.
Maybe it's possible to trim the fat cap from the entire piece, remove the skin, gluing back the fat cap with a bif of honey and roast the meat in the oven. The honey would be protected by the fat cap.

>>21672942
LMFAO
That's not how it's going to happen and the honey will fuck up the flavour profile of the steak, but why don't you try it and report back.

>>21672941
Why every time I post here there’s an anon obsessed with my hands? It’s creepy

>>21672941
>chick fingers
those're soibot hands.

>>21672965
I've already addressed that.
I'm 40 years old, I look like a 20 years old, I'm skinny because thanks to a stomach augmentation implant I lived for the last 7 years losing weight continuously from 80 down to 54 kg.
3 months ago I had surgery to remove the implant and now I started gaining weight again, I'm 62 kg.

>>21672975

>Excuse: "My stomach is augmented"
OP Denton, you really are something.

>>21673005
I’m not joking

Picanha is overrated trash from the 2010s when brazil was trying to pull a "cool japan" and every bar in every big city worldwide had a capirinha ambassador sponsored by the government of brazil

>>21672804 (OP)
how have you gotten to current age, without knowing what silver skin is?

>>21672873
chew the fat off, and then cut the silver skin off with a knife you moron.

>>21672830
WTF how is it levitating?

>>21672804 (OP)
Fucking disgusting. Thank fuck I don't eat meat.

>>21674642

>awesome picanha steak
It's a pretty tough cut, anon. It's the lesser expensive Brazilian cut, which requires some chewing since it should be part of a rump roast, and yes, sliced against the grain when serving. (imho, it doesn't belong in a steak cut). On an outdoor grill, the picanha is folded to use that intact fat cap as protection over hot coals. So not only did you cook it wrong, but a picanha should be sliced with a very sharp knife and COVERED in oily chimmichurri to tenderize each bite.

There's another cut, with that gristle piece right down the center of each steak, center gristle is the name of it, but a "blade steak" is delicious muscle on either side. You can't trim it away, because it destroys the integrity of the steak.

>>21672852
Other end.

>John Cena wuz here

>>21672804 (OP)
Cut off the fat and then the silverskin.

>>21675005
John Cena wouldnt write that, he would just make a penis with glitter

>>21673020
What is that, a cum injection?

>>21675040
I was translating.

>>21672822
I think you use a knife to remove fatty n gristle bits? Are you pulling this apart with your fingers??

>>21676179
Just his teeth. He's taken everything below the neck right out of the equation.

>>21672873
cut the fat cap off, remove the silverskin, glue the fat cap back on to the meat with meatglue
