You notice when it comes to other chefs reacting to Gordon, they mainly pick on just the small differences (not looking at that grilled cheese video) but when it comes to Jamie Oliver, there is so much that people can make a movie reacting to those videos.
It’s important to remember Oliver became famous for cooking for ordinary people, not wealthy people. A lot of his compromises are financial - don’t go and buy specialty ingredients for a meal you will eat once, use what you have and get 75% of the way there. He’s a low hanging fruit, but even uncle Rodger ate his words on the chilli jam saga.
Jamie Oliver is a deeply problematic mess in general, but this video isn't really small things. That sear was pathetic (and the olive oil contributes to that), the amount of butter is pathetic (though Guga's full stick is definitely overkill), and that two bulbs of garlic unpeeled is going to put less flavor into that butter/steak than a single smashed clove will. He said some stuff that is nitpicky/preference (looking at you pepper size), sure, but that's a lot of screw ups for a dish that is mostly cooking a steak.
@mandyhiman436 Nah, Guga is built the way he is due to the AMOUNT of steak and other good food he eats (much of which is for content), as well as genetics. Fat doesn't necessarily make you fat either, it's just higher in calories. So if you eat fattier foods AND don't limit the other things you eat, yes you will gain weight. But fattier cuts are more filling, and you should be eating less when you eat fatty cuts. I'd take a Guga steak over a Gordon steak any day.
His video about not basting because it wastes butter was absurd. Of course you waste a lot of butter when you use an entire stick per steak then throw it all away.
Samesys; I've always loved peppercorns. Recently, due to GI stuff I can't do real heat, but fresh rough ground rainbow pepper treats my tongue without torturing my intestines.
I like the coarser grind, too. When I was in grade school, my mom would sometimes make salami sandwiches. Just as you say, biting into that peppercorn was a pop of flavor.
That's how I am with garlic. That's why I used dried, minced garlic instead of garlic powder on my steaks. A tiny flavor bomb that surprises you in a good way.
I love the style of videos! Guga if you ever start teaching people how to cook, I will gladly take a class. I know how to cook already but I wouldn’t mind learning some new skills, I’ve actually learned quite a bit from your videos. Thank you so much for for sharing this!
Just observe, take notes and practice... that's all you have to do my friend. Just like I did. I learned to cook the perfect medium rare steaks because of watching his videos and always remember the little tips he'll drop in..
There's extra virgin olive oil, which is nice for salads and stuff, and there's also refined olive oil, for cooking. It has a higher smoke point, less flavor, etc. Ofc I don't know what Ramsay is using, but I'd assume it's the correct one? Hopefully?
It's an age old myth that you can't use regular olive oil for high heat. It has a stronger taste than some other oils but other than that, it's perfectly fine.
Gordon isn’t using extra virgin olive oil. He is using a later press olive oil with a higher smoke point. It has less olive flavor and is a more neutral cooking oil
One thing to note here, is that the meat cuts do differ somewhat between UK and USA. Like, in the UK, the rump is further forward than the “round” cut.
Where I’m from a very common product is salted pork fat. Very commonly used to sear steaks, cut it into small chunks and render the fat. Adds such an amazing taste to the steak. It sounds crazy until you try it, especially with cheaper cuts. It’s a game changer. Basically everything I cook is fried in salted pork fat.
@@Aymenadhami "and now he thinks he's great" - Well, that steak Chef Gordon cooked LACKS crust. (You don't need to be a chef to know that) That basting technique is a waste of time; the flavor do NOT pass on to the steak. (only on the surface) All the flavor remains on the butter sauce, might as well cook that sauce, AFTER cooking the steak, as the steak rest. The best fat for searing steak is tallow. You don't need to be a chef to know all this, you just need to love steak. The difference between a chef and a home cook is the pressure the chef faces in his line of work. But to cook just one dish, a home cook can be better than a chef that does NOT specialize on that dish.
@@jarjarbinks4243 he's not better in anything. If cooking a million steaks makes you the better Steak chef, the chef at your local Chili's will be the best steak maker ever.
The yellow colour is not just from the feed, the type and age of the cow makes a big difference. Jersey cows for example have a rich yellow fat even if only grass fed.
Guga, the bread you have chosen is ace. But you Have to egg wash it & fry it on one side quickly in a Cast Iron Frying Pan !!! Trust me the flavor profile you will get is phenomenal... 😋
my steak grilling improved a million percent after finding Gugas channel. crazy I never knew the basic concept of searing then cooking on indirect heat, it makes such a difference. I was always told only flip once as well, I know better than that now, actually way better to flip as many times as needed to get that nice sear without overcooking the thing.
Using large pepper grinder makes me think it'll be harder to get a good crust, too. It "lifts" the steak from the surface of the pan more than a finer grind.
So, I love this video because I get to see my 2 favorite Steak experts in one video! I have learned from Gordon’s techniques and recipes he is a minimalist and lets the main product shine. While Guga in my eyes is the master Steak expert! I have loved every single recipe and technique he employs! God bless and it’s “GOOD TO BE THE KING”. (Gordon and Guga)!
Tallow is much better than ghee. Ghee is actually bad for finishing the steak because it removes all the milk solides from the butter. You want those milk solids to caramelize in the minute of basting for added flavor. Ghee isn't even an option for steak, tallow all the way since ghee doesn't even have the one use butter has for the finish.
@polkhigh_33 I love lard to cook with, but I just prefer the flavour I get when I render my own Tallow, I add mah, a pinch of smoked paprika, a sprig of thyme and a touch of refined avocado oil purely to up the smoke point even more
@polkhigh_33 I love lard to cook with, but I just prefer the flavour I get when I render my own Tallow, I add msg, a pinch of smoked paprika, a sprig of thyme and a touch of refined avocado oil purely to up the smoke point even more
I actually liked the large grains of salt and pepper precisely because they create the crunch. As for crust or no crust, I think both have their strong points just like crunchy salt/pepper particles.
There's lack of respect for each other from both sides 😂 Gordon can smell BS from miles away and he's not wrong tbh And guga 🤡 well the Audacity to sit there and judge A highly skilled professional who's trained with the best in the toughest environment in the world and putting such thumbnails to get views is just petty and disgusting and disrespectful behavior at its peak

I’m sure it had to do with views,(Gordan Ramsey= a lot of clicks) but it’s insane to think you have any place to judge Gordon’s cooking 😂 Keep the great content up regardless! 😂 all I’m saying is thinking you are in any position to judge a multi Michelin/ James Beard award winning chef is beyond me!
Guga i just want to let you know, you are my great. I am a chef from south africa and Gordon has always been my hero but since i discovered you and your channel you became the best in my eye the way you cook is the best i agree with you on everything.
it doesnt matter whether he is a youtuber or not, if you put 10000 hours into sth then you become a master at that craft, both these men have done that in their respective fields, Gordon is a world class chef as you can tell by his accolades, but also guga has put in the work and mastered steaks, in my opinion guga has one of the most valid opinions in the world when it comes to steaks
Olive oil comes in two varieties: standard and virgin/extra virgin. The latter is used at the end of a dish and for dressings, etc. The former is good to cook with, though the smoke point isn't as hhigh as the ones Guga mentioned.
My steak skill points went up so fast when I started watching Guga. I think I've leveled up twice in this year (no grill, no gas stove... need upgrades). Thanks Guga!!! 😍 NEVER TOO MUCH BUTTER!
San-wish. I will never let this down lmao. I also love it when Guga is happy watching another's chef's video. There's just something wholesome about it.
My interpretation when he said, "Let it rest as long as you cooked it," was the time in the oven. 8 minutes. "Searing it" isn't "cookin it". I know that's debatable, but i heard 8 minutes rest before you started saying why 15 is too long.
I’m like you Guga, I prefer a finely ground black pepper for seasoning the steak but also like to finish with a coarse grind on the plate. Can’t remember if it was you or Sunny that explained how large pepper grinds hurt the sear because it actually lifts the steak off the pan.
I love watching these kinds of video from you Guga. I propose another kind of oil for cooking steaks: Coconut oil. I've been using it a lot to season my cast iron skillet and to cook the steak and I think it's pretty good ❤
one thing guga might not know, beef/steak sandwiches in the UK are often eaten cold not hot, we eat them just like u would a ham sandwich, might be part of the reason he didnt give it a darker sear
If the surface of that tenderloin’s heavily seared then it also would make texture rather crispy. Gordon is not cooking a steak, but a sandwich. Id prefer any meat that goes in between the breads soft rather than crispy.
My favourite steak sandwitch is one called "Pepito", and it's really simple, you just need a steak (traditionally a thin one is used, but you can use a thick one if you slice it after its cooked) and bread toasted with butter. Simple, easy to make and delicious, you can taste the steak perfectly and the butter toasted bread is just an treat. Also, a lot of spanish people cook with olive oil, so we're used to having that extra bit of flavour in our dishes.
I love to do both honestly, nice big chunks when cooking and then a nice fine grind for finish. I really love a mix of 20 green 20 red and 60 black for steaks then just black pepper.
Gordon literally said he was going to char the bread, in which case the grill pan is nice because you get some char without having the surface completely covered in char. Charred good is delicious when it’s balanced overall
When I was working in a feed store, some customers showed us the difference between the grass and grain finished beef from their own cows. They used a high fiber, texturized, grain mix meant for show animals. It really seemed to improve the marbling.
The fact that he cooked it perfectly and even the color from the outside and inside is very identical becoming more pinkish at the center while more white on the outside, and in way less time than most chefs. Proves why he is "The Boss" as Guga said.
Eight things I would have changed: 1 • Use a ribeye. It's so close to the tenderness of the fillet as to make no real difference and it's much more flavorful. 2 • Use a spoonful of tallow to start the sear, working the fat cap first to render even more fat. 3 • Use more butter in the basting. 4 • Put a crust on the steak. 5 • Use balsamic vinegar in the tomato relish. Not the premium stuff reserved for shallots and desserts, but the mid-range stuff used for cooking. The balsamic's natural sweetness just brings a complex sweetness all its own that goes with tomatoes, goes with steak, and just makes everything better. 6 • Add a little ground rosemary to the tomato relish. It blends with basil and tomatoes so well. 7 • Use a flat pan to grill the bread. 8 • Before grilling the bread, butter it and sprinkle a little smoked paprika on the butter, then grill it low & slow. This adds a beautiful hint of smokiness to the bread that's amazing in almost any sandwich. But all that's to my taste, I'm sure chef Ramsey would be saying, "Oh, dear, oh dear," if not calling me a donkey outright. 🤣
The yellowing of that steak is more likely a sign that it was an old dairy cow, which goes for a serious premium. Cattle are culled younger in the UK than the US and the fat's almost always white despite being fully grass fed. Also if any Americans are confused, we have a different system of butchering beef in other English speaking countries. Our rump is what you call sirloin, our sirloin is what you call NY strip.
My favorite oil to cook steak with is clarified butter with some drops of liquid smoke ( I don't have a grill but I do have lots of cast iron and a gas stove ). I make it myself so for me it's cheap, flavor rich and it beats any seed based neutral oil there is. I've also used bacon fat and it's super yummy! 🤤

Gordon's sandwich, looks good as always, Guga, I appreciate your knowledge!

I would never cook a tire.😂
it doesnt matter whether he is a youtuber or not, if you put 10000 hours into sth then you become a master at that craft, both these men have done that in their respective fields, Gordon is a world class chef as you can tell by his accolades, but also guga has put in the work and mastered steaks, in my opinion guga has one of the most valid opinions in the world when it comes to steaks
@@xessi.a person replying critiquing to a person commenting critiquing a UA-camr critiquing a Michelin star chef
we need a master chef cook-off with judges between guga and gordan with independant judges. steak vs steak
guga like the uncle we all want and gordon like a wedding day out to eat typa vibe fancy
Olive oil comes in two varieties: standard and virgin/extra virgin. The latter is used at the end of a dish and for dressings, etc. The former is good to cook with, though the smoke point isn't as hhigh as the ones Guga mentioned.
Another GUGGER classic. I love it
My steak skill points went up so fast when I started watching Guga. I think I've leveled up twice in this year (no grill, no gas stove... need upgrades). Thanks Guga!!! 😍 NEVER TOO MUCH BUTTER!
Guga, you should do your version for this video! love to see it a good crust, wagyu fillet sandwich!
Gordon sells his method with charisma and strength of character. Guga tests his methods and knows his stuff
Love the video Guga. Always informative
You know what would be great? Having Gordon Ramsay on a Guga Steak video - probably won't happen, but it would be great!
San-wish. I will never let this down lmao.
I also love it when Guga is happy watching another's chef's video. There's just something wholesome about it.
uncle roger wld have gone to town with the roasts on this one
My interpretation when he said, "Let it rest as long as you cooked it," was the time in the oven. 8 minutes. "Searing it" isn't "cookin it". I know that's debatable, but i heard 8 minutes rest before you started saying why 15 is too long.
I’m like you Guga, I prefer a finely ground black pepper for seasoning the steak but also like to finish with a coarse grind on the plate. Can’t remember if it was you or Sunny that explained how large pepper grinds hurt the sear because it actually lifts the steak off the pan.
4:15 @Guga, my go to for an oil is Ghee. It has a high smoke point as well but a much richer flavor than regular oils.
I love watching these kinds of video from you Guga.
I propose another kind of oil for cooking steaks: Coconut oil. I've been using it a lot to season my cast iron skillet and to cook the steak and I think it's pretty good ❤
Oh yeah... I LOVE steak sandwiches too 😂
that's not a sandwich, that's a slider! lol
A whole ass steak with no crust for 1 sandwich 😂😂
one thing guga might not know, beef/steak sandwiches in the UK are often eaten cold not hot, we eat them just like u would a ham sandwich, might be part of the reason he didnt give it a darker sear
Not in our house. They don't hang around long enough to get cold here.
I would love to see Guga vs Chef Gorden on a grill off with the public being the judges.
If the surface of that tenderloin’s heavily seared then it also would make texture rather crispy. Gordon is not cooking a steak, but a sandwich. Id prefer any meat that goes in between the breads soft rather than crispy.
My favourite steak sandwitch is one called "Pepito", and it's really simple, you just need a steak (traditionally a thin one is used, but you can use a thick one if you slice it after its cooked) and bread toasted with butter. Simple, easy to make and delicious, you can taste the steak perfectly and the butter toasted bread is just an treat.
Also, a lot of spanish people cook with olive oil, so we're used to having that extra bit of flavour in our dishes.
I love to do both honestly, nice big chunks when cooking and then a nice fine grind for finish. I really love a mix of 20 green 20 red and 60 black for steaks then just black pepper.
Gordon literally said he was going to char the bread, in which case the grill pan is nice because you get some char without having the surface completely covered in char. Charred good is delicious when it’s balanced overall
When I was working in a feed store, some customers showed us the difference between the grass and grain finished beef from their own cows. They used a high fiber, texturized, grain mix meant for show animals. It really seemed to improve the marbling.
The fact that he cooked it perfectly and even the color from the outside and inside is very identical becoming more pinkish at the center while more white on the outside, and in way less time than most chefs. Proves why he is "The Boss" as Guga said.
Great video!
As a person who was hoping for more information regarding the differences between the cuts. I appreciate the title.
Thank you Guga for showing us the difference between TV cooks and reality. Your recipes are epic.
the crunch from the coarse grounds may be a desired texture, like one would have with a pastrami.
you know, id so love to see Guga and Gordon get together and try out each others food. im curious how Gordon would view Guga's steaks.
elite tier reaction content, completely transformative

Guga, I know it doesn't look that good right now, but watch this...
Eight things I would have changed:
1 • Use a ribeye. It's so close to the tenderness of the fillet as to make no real difference and it's much more flavorful.
2 • Use a spoonful of tallow to start the sear, working the fat cap first to render even more fat.
3 • Use more butter in the basting.
4 • Put a crust on the steak.
5 • Use balsamic vinegar in the tomato relish. Not the premium stuff reserved for shallots and desserts, but the mid-range stuff used for cooking. The balsamic's natural sweetness just brings a complex sweetness all its own that goes with tomatoes, goes with steak, and just makes everything better.
6 • Add a little ground rosemary to the tomato relish. It blends with basil and tomatoes so well.
7 • Use a flat pan to grill the bread.
8 • Before grilling the bread, butter it and sprinkle a little smoked paprika on the butter, then grill it low & slow. This adds a beautiful hint of smokiness to the bread that's amazing in almost any sandwich.
But all that's to my taste, I'm sure chef Ramsey would be saying, "Oh, dear, oh dear," if not calling me a donkey outright. 🤣
The yellowing of that steak is more likely a sign that it was an old dairy cow, which goes for a serious premium. Cattle are culled younger in the UK than the US and the fat's almost always white despite being fully grass fed.
Also if any Americans are confused, we have a different system of butchering beef in other English speaking countries. Our rump is what you call sirloin, our sirloin is what you call NY strip.
I'd love to see you remake this recipe and add a guga twist
My favorite oil to cook steak with is clarified butter with some drops of liquid smoke ( I don't have a grill but I do have lots of cast iron and a gas stove ). I make it myself so for me it's cheap, flavor rich and it beats any seed based neutral oil there is. I've also used bacon fat and it's super yummy! 🤤
Guga and I have the same appetite when he says he could eat 20 of those sammiches. 😂
GR makes sandwiches for Oompa Loompas! you know he scarfed down off screen about 5 or so of those like the piglet he is! :p
Love to see your version of a steak sanga mate 😊
He didn’t school you. You schooled him.
I was thinking I could eat 20 of those before you said it 😂
