Meat noob here. Can someone tell me/confirm what kind of cut of steak this is?
It says porterhouse, but I thought porterhouse is two common cuts separated by a bone? Googling just made me head hurt so I was hoping someone could explain it to someone with my IQ
I live in australia so we have different names for different cuts, and sometimes things are mislabeled in my stores.What is the american analogue for what you're seeing here?
Yeah, that doesn't look like a porterhouse. Maybe a ribeye?
Benjamin Russell
That's a Strip.
Landon Thompson
Sirloin
Adam Brooks
I couldn't tell you what cut of steak that is.
But I can tell you this
Meat is absolutely abhorrent, it is inhumane, disgusting, and brutal. Meat and all animal products and byproducts in general are. It is completely objectively 100% unethical, cruel and unusual. Factory farming is some of the most disgusting and terrifying things you will ever see. They treat these animals horribly only to harvest them for our gluttonous delight. We have detached ourselves from our Mother Earth. We have no right to do this to them.
Meat is also very unhealthy, usually loaded with saturated fats and cholesterol. It is also carcinogenic, especially the more it is heated. We do not digest these well as we are basically herbivores as a result of our digestive tracts and our response to eating meat. Our bodies do not efficiently absorb and digest animal proteins and acids, they are inflammatory. They lead to many many chronic diseases. Removing animal products has been shown to possibly almost entirely reverse them in some cases
Meat and animal products are also destroying our environment with their massive and unregulated agricultural practices. Methane emissions from agriculture are some of the absolute most contributory to global warming as a whole. This is our planet, but it's there's too, and our planet is our planet's. We need to keep everything in balance. Animal agriculture does not do this, it is also a monumentally water intensive process.
Everything is interconnected and beautiful. And that is now why I ask you to please stop eating animal products, I love you and you love us, you love them, you love Earth. I implore you to change your ways. I beg you to stop. I beg of you.
Anthony Thompson
Oh god, what a terrible looking steak.
I'd guess sirloin.
Jose Miller
I want to say a strip steak except..with no marbling in it??
James Ramirez
my thanks
appreciate ya
sounds about right. that's my local grocery stores for ya I guess
alright thx everybody guess its either a strip or sirloin
Lincoln White
I'll concur with the sirloin crew, perhaps top
Do Strayans have an equivalent to the USDA grades?
Dunno where you got it but I'm not sure I'd be able to put out that money for one steak of that marbling
Color is reasonable though
Take care with cooking. That one will get tough easy
Joshua Lopez
Downvoted. You're exactly what's wrong with circlejerk. Instead of posting satire, mocking reddit and being clever and original, you continue to post lame phrases and beat to glue anything that was even remotely funny, all under the guise that you want to show what's wrong with reddit. You don't care about reddit. You belong to the system that this subreddit was made to mock. You seek karma. You seek to be a power-user, a well-known name in a sea of perpetual anonymity. The higher your karma-count, the more you get off on it. You are smug and self-satisfying. You are the problem. There should be a "delete" button below your posts. Start clicking them after you post and you'll find that reddit starts to improve.
Carter Edwards
Not sure if we have anything similar to USDA grades but I'd be interested to find out so good idea.
Actually it was two steaks, I took one out.
Ty for the advice.
Ethan Gutierrez
What was the other steak in the package? Was it identical or was it different? They could have removed the T bone for some reason and you ended with a loose strip and a tenderloin filet which is what a porterhouse is for the meat.
Henry Adams
Should be identical. The photo of it in the packaging and one on the plate are the two steaks, and from my inexperienced eye they look about the same.
Kayden Stewart
Very smart. I didn't think about that. SO yea OP got ripped.
Jace Jenkins
it's half a porterhouse anyway *shrug*
Isaiah Martinez
>I love you and you love us, you love them, you love Earth I love eating steak.
Gabriel Bennett
>he blurred out the IGA label in case someone finds out what suburb he lives in
Evan Ortiz
Yes we do, it's called MSA (meat standards australia) Google it and you shall learn
Poor cunt IGA's usually won't label it but you should see it at a butcher or Coles
Lucas Wood
lmao i dunno man it felt right
Jordan Smith
cool, good information. thank you.
Charles Perry
That looks like a ny strip its not a rib eye there is not much marbling
Thomas Torres
iirc correctly, strayans call strip steaks porterhouses for some ungodly, upsidedown world reason
Luke Morales
>iirc correctly
fuck me. it's 5 am in the morning here
Dylan Gomez
ah fuck me, upon googling I think you're right. I think that was actually my first consideration but I quickly assumed, incorrectly, that it would be too stupid to be the case.
Isaiah Watson
$32 a kg is way too much, even with the exchange.
Levi Stewart
Minimum casual wage in my state, western Australia, is $25/hr. Average weekly wage of both private and public sector is more than $1,500.
That's why you'll see long lines near a petrol station that is charging less than $1.20/L.
Liam Williams
>Minimum casual wage in my state, western Australia, is $25/hr. Sorry meant $22/hr.
Kevin Scott
OP bought that meat from a supermarket that is known for not being cheap. It's a smaller player than the 2 majors here and if he went up the road to a proper butcher he would have paid about $26per kg.
OP, North or south m8? If north, check out the beef Shed in Malaga, if south check out the butcher at Market city in Canningvale
Benjamin Evans
North of the river. very close to malaga so thanks I will mark down beef shed and give it a visit some time.
Nolan Young
good information. I'll every few months find a whole fillet of steak and slice it up at home, freeze a few steaks and give some away. Works out at about $8/kg.
Hudson Ward
No worries, my local IGA unfortunately is nollamara so I'm probably not that far from you. Saw a good fight in the car park at chemist warehouse in mirrabooka yesterday too.
Small world ay
The beef Shed have a news letter they send via email, it's always a good laugh because the guy who writes it can't spell and it's full of retarded shit. The prices are well worth a look though. They have a website if you google it
You can buy bulk chunks of meat there too, even cheaper again than just buying steaks already cut and packaged. Last time I was there they had several lambs on hooks ready for the public to buy
I sound like I'm shilling for this place but I have no connection to them other than loving to eat meat and I'm a stingy cunt that doesn't like paying too much for anything
Camden Martin
>mirrabooka >play spot the white >dodge the abbos at the bus station >tackle a shoplifter
Dylan Williams
Pretty much. Some abo guy with a white Mrs got out of his car and started some shit with another abo about him trying to steal his Mrs. Was good value.
Anyway, I live in Tuart Hill which is usually much more peaceful but I just visit the shops in those areas for a few things on occasion.
Jaxon Diaz
holy shit guys I know this is Veeky Forums but i need advice. my gf wants to visit aus where do i go to not get shanked by an aboriginal or some stupid shit
Elijah Martinez
Gee OP I'm stumped too
Nicholas Scott
it's a porterhouse (thickness) new york strip (cut) steak
Owen Martinez
anywhere. I live in what is considered dodgy and most talk about aboriginals is memes. you're fine. aus is safe. each city has its own little ghetto that is obvious, so stay clear of them.
hi m8 absolutely top notch quality post you have there but as stated in the OP the question is about whether it is mislabeled
thanks
Oliver Taylor
he asked what kind of steak it was
the label says porterhouse
that makes two insufferable faggots that can't fucking read in this thread.
