Tomahawk and Korean shortribs


Apologies for no plated pictures but man, were we all hungry.  Just a really nice tomahawk, dry-brined and then coated with DP cowlick, sousvided for 3 hours at 131, then seared on the egg; Korean-marinated shortribs took about 1 minute a side.  All very tasty.

    Looks delicious. But no plated photo ... well damn, you'll have to make that lovely meal again to get a decent finished shot. What a shame. :D

    Nicely done!

    Care to share your marinade recipe for the ribs? And how did you dry brine the tomahawk? Cooked a tomahawk once, but was not too happy with the result.

    Hi all, sorry I missed these replies until today.  @caliking, the marinade was really simple and I did not measure at all carefully...about equal parts (say, 1/2 cup each) soy, brown sugar, and apple butter I happened to have canned (but you can used apple sauce, grated Asian pear, or even mirin), a couple of tablespoons each rice wine vinegar, sesame oil and grated ginger, a few large garlic cloves (smashed) and a couple of big pinches of sesame seeds. Blended up and into a ziplock with the meat. I marinated for a few days, as it turned out, but 12 hours probably would have been just as good.

    Like I said, they cook up REALLY fast on high heat.

    As for the 'hawk, just a heavy sprinkling of salt all over, then on a rack in the fridge overnight.  Then on with the Cow Lick and into the sous vide bag, 131 for a few hours, with another dusting of Cow Lick before the sear. Juicy and delicious and not salty at all, just perfectly seasoned.  I dry brine all my meat these days.
