Waiting overnight is not necessarily complicated. It's the total amount of effort put in the makes something simple or not. You just have to, you know, do very basic planning.
I love how Guga said in the intro that he marinated it for a month, but my brain was completely ready to accept when he told the guys a year. The man has zero limits, so nothing is off the table. He could claim to have a 20 year preserved steak because he'd thrown a new york strip in a tupperware full of honey as a child. I'd 100% believe it.
@@SpiderCents I assume since he shown it put in his dry ager, it was placed there... Google a dry ager if you don't know what it is, not really a common household item, but it is basically just a fancy fridge for meat.
In Italy there is a whole type of canning called "sott'olio" meaning "under oil". Pig or wild bore sausages can be preserved under EV olive oil. Vegetables, mushrooms or anchovies are more common sott'olio than meats.
@@galaxygalaxy4429 it's probably because he or she eats them after 30 day marinade in juicy hot oils so they are a bit too busy to feed trolls they rather eat them instead.
Preserving meat in olive oil was a very common practice in southern regions of europe. Other regions, where olive oil was not easily available, they used pig lard. My grandma used to have a farm and they only got the refrigerator in late 60' and up until then, they used lard for meat preservation. Would be nice to see the results of that one.
@@ArteUltrasIt's a fairly common practice but unless you store them with salt too (which dries out the steak by sucking out the water) you may as well just vacuum pack it. Also causes MASSIVE flairups that don't taste nice when you cook it on a flame grill.
that's why the meat storage room was called a larder. you can throw cured meats in a barrel of tallow or something, it's more like a wax than a fat if you render it and bacteria doesn't move fast through it at all
Olive oil is high in olive oil, so I think the reaction is due to the olive oil reacting with the steak, as steak is made of steak and when combined with olive oil, again made of olive oil, you get a reaction known as the "Olive oil and steak" reaction in the culinary world.
@@thelightningflash The olive oil in olive oil contains even more olive oil than previously thought when it was invented. The outside of the olive oil is 100% olive oil but inside is a sort of nucleus, 100% rich in olive oil, making olive oil 200% olive oil.

This was super interesting, thank you! In Eastern Europe (and other places I imagine) it's fairly common to baste or marinate meat in something like mayonnaise before grilling, even without aging.

Steak “stored” in an oil has been done for years in restaurants. Keeps oxygen from getting to the steak and also gives it a nice sear. It’s great for steaks that might not move well on the menu
@@MayhamRC submerged in oil keeps oxygen away…did I miss something? It literally preserves the steak for weeks. Maybe even months. I know I worked in a restaurant that use to do this with its filets. Maybe I don’t understand what your saying
omg I've watched Sonny for ages, I love his channel, all his Vietnam videos helped convince me to visit Vietnam, but now that I am actually in Vietnam, he appears on Guga's show. He also collaborated with one the Mongolian food & culture channel I follow
It doesn't matter what video Guga puts out, every person that's on with Guga, you as the viewer can see that guest on the show anticipating the Guga steak. Like they were just a viewer and then they got on the show, but if they were a dog their tail would be wagging the whole time. It's insane to watch every, single, time. I wonder if Guga will look into fermented foods, and figure out ancient combinations in his way.
Not sure about the olive oil but where I live we have a traditional dish called "Carne la Garnita" from Romania and we make it before Christmas to last the whole year and I really recommend it for you to try. It's smoked pig's tenderloin, ribs and sausage that we fry in a lot of pig's fat and than we put the meat into a jar and strain the rest of the fat on top to fill the jar and preserve the meat. And whenever you want to eat some we just fry it a bit with some of the fat mostly to just warm it up, and the best part about it is making french fries with the fat is really good and I think you would enjoy it.
The fat preservation works. If I do a big pork lion roast that I won't eat in the next few days, I cook the whole thing and then I put a few cooked portions back in the freezer submerged in its own juices and fat. Comes out great when I want it later.
I feel like since you already tried beer and hops separately you should try "draff", it's the post-ferment beer waste composed of yeast and hops; could make an absolutely crazy steak.
1:42 guga, don't use hellmann's .. that is not mayonnaise. Trust me, im from the country of fries and mayo. Next time, make your own mayo, it's very easy. A yolk, a bit of mustard, salt pepper, and a bit of vinegar. Add a bit of oil, start to whip it, and keep adding oil till you have the wanted amount. After, add more of what lacks. If it's too stiff, add a bit more vinegar, and taste wise, you can add more salt pepper or mustard, till it fits your taste. That, is how you make mayo. It takes literally 3-5 minutes to do.
As a Greek this makes me happy. To this day a lot of us still do a… prolonged marination of sorts. Some of the best grilled chicken you’ll have is after a couple of days submersed in a seasoned OO
Guga can you dry a steak in applestroop? It’s a traditional Dutch apple caramel syrup. I’m almost sure it won’t work but hey that hasn’t stopped you before
He didnt even cover it completely, just let it there in theopen with honey dripping off it. that experiment was a failure from the beginning. He needs to let it rest IN the honey not let the honey drip off and expose the steak@@Edino_Chattino
fruit juices ferment over time, you'd probably get everyone drunk eating steak, but if it's cooked then the fermented 'alcoholic' nature of the fruit liquid would burn away.
@13:10 Sonny said "oofta" ... I haven't heard that in years since visiting my great aunt who lived in the UP of Michigan in a town called Christmas. Yes, the entire town is named after Christmas stuff. She lived on Jingle Bell Lane.
Oil keeping the steak from oxidizing is pretty much what id expect, in the metal industry we coat metal in oil to... well... prevent oxidation. Cool to see a practical example of it working on meat though!
I'm surprised you didn't just whip up some of your own mayo. Helmann's is the best store bought mayo, but it still has some additives that may have effected the final result, whereas if you made your own mayo, you can just make it with eggs and oil. You could even have made some mayo with eggs and any other fat, like all that beef tallow and duck fat you keep around. Wagyu mayo might be interesting.
@@lVl_A_L_B_O_R_O Duke's is basically the same thing, but the nutrition info says there's more fat in it, probably from using more egg yolks, less egg whites.
with any mix of oil and water based liquids (an emulsion) the different fats used affect the setting temperature, or whether it goes lumpy. You need a low setting temperature so that the mayo / sauce/ whatever will pour out of the bottle............... so a lot of experimentation regarding type of oil, and mixture ratio of oils to water based..........for taste; and whether it will pour or not.... at standard fridge temperatures.
We just tried a short version of the Mayo steak, it was amazing!!! We did a 5 day age in the Mayo amd finished with salt and pepper on the charcoal grill. I would definitely recommend this even on a shortened time frame. The tenderness of the steak and the slight creamy texture made it a great Christmas dinner steak!! 10/10 experiment that I will make for future meals!
I normally use mayo as a marinade for my bbq for pork or chicken breasts, everything become super tender. 20-30 minutes is enough actually. Max 1 hour maybe, I ve never done it that long.
Reason Angel wasn't in this episode there's a good chance his heads marinated in the fridge for that cast iron skillet he wrecked 😂 much love Guga fan ❤
Idk if it's been done, but I would enjoy a horse radish dry age or maybe even Arby's horsey sauce experiment. I absolutely love horse radish. Wonder how it would turn out.
Another interesting experiment. One thing I learned over 50 years ago, though, is to NEVER season a GOOD steak before cooking. With most ribeye, strips, and filet mignons, all that's needed is a good sear for flavor. If the cut isn't quite up to snuff, you can always add salt and/or pepper at the table. If it needs anything more than that, it's not a very good steak or it wasn't cooked properly. When you're spending good money on steak, make sure it's good and then handle it accordingly.
I always do this, it marinates with olive oil. You might wanna add some spice , garlic and onion in it to smoothen the process. And we actually use this method for sea bass or bluefish. It works pretty neatly (and i love olive oil so in no way it is biased😂)
mayo or olive oil in a vacuum sealed bag with the steak would be interesting because it's more controlled, no oxygen would likely tamper the condition of the steak or the fats/oil. And in a sense, it's what marinated steaks in grocers are actually like since they use fats/oils with seasoning and store it in a fridge to be sold, but people consume it too soon so it's not fully tenderized.
This side dish we call "musaka" here in slovenia. Its almost the same, just that we use minced meat and throw in an egg so its more structured. Try it out, its veeeerrryy gooooooodd
Now hold up. You can call Sonny a food critic if you want. Even food "expert" doesn't describe his work. He's a food explorer. He has traveled near and far to sample the world's most wonderful offerings and met people from some of the most colorful cultures on Earth. This may sound like simping - and fine, maybe it is - but few today are dong what Sonny has set out to do. What a dynamic duo in this video. Cheers to you both.
Finally, you made something interesting and somewhat edible. Thank you for using the correct "Meat Slicing Knife" paired with a "Solid Hardwood Cutting Board" / Let's get cooking. Master Chefs on staff
in my country old traditional meet keeping in fat is little bit different than this...we first cook the meat than we put it in fat that way you can take it out and eat immediately only thing you need to do is heat it up on a pan or in the oven...these days this is very rare but some old people still do this :) i tried it once and its just amazing :D
One thing I would like to see is it done with proper mayonnaise as in home-made we all have Hellmann’s. There’s no getting away from it, but it is full of preservatives so as side-by-side between Hellmann’s and home-made mayonnaise would be a good one with without the preservatives and the E numbers. sorry for mentioning those, but they’re definitely in there.
Fun Fact: Titanium Dioxide is an ingredient often added to foods like ranch dressing, mayo, confectionaries, and ice-creams to keep them white. Which makes sense seeing as how the substance mitigates UV oxidation. ...It helps keep your skin white too. It's sun screen.
I am going to try that beef and potato dish. Intersting enough, I use olive oil to marinate my chicken and fish, and occasionally beef when I eat it, which is rare (no pun intended). Of course, since I don't have a dry ager, I can't try that experiment at the moment. But already 24-48 hours in an air-tight container works wonders on tenderizing (even a few hours actually). Of course at work it was salt, pepper and sunflower oil then vacuum sealed.
theory: fry in low temp olive oil until it reaches 135 degrees F. then sear. compare how it is to the aged one. Mostly just curious to see if there is, in fact, a difference between doing one fresh and doing one dry aged. (You could cook one at 135F for a month in olive oil if you would like to, but... I don't know if that would be safe :S)
Olive oils an untapped steak secret. Gives one of the most amazing smoky sears imaginable if cooked right. I like steak with a very smoky sear so I always go with olive oil.
I normally use mayo as a marinade for my bbq for pork or chicken breasts, everything become super tender. 20-30 minutes is enough actually. Max 1 hour maybe, I ve never done it that long.
I might have to try the mayo one. Mayo always seems to be the one that goes well with marinating a meat. I’ve seen it in turkey and burgers and always made it taste great so I wasn’t surprise much when it came to the taste but I was hesitant when I saw the color
TRY COVERING STEAK WITH MAYO AND SEARING ON A SKILLET!!!! Try it over charcoal too!!! Similar to using mayo on bread for grilled cheese! Will it make a crispy umami crust? Will it melt and turn out terrible? ONLY GUGA KNOWS!

I love love love when you do collaborations with Sonny! You two are my favorites!
ive been watching Sunny for so many years. It makes me happy to see you guys collab together :)
omg I've watched Sonny for ages, I love his channel, all his Vietnam videos helped convince me to visit Vietnam, but now that I am actually in Vietnam, he appears on Guga's show. He also collaborated with one the Mongolian food & culture channel I follow
It doesn't matter what video Guga puts out, every person that's on with Guga, you as the viewer can see that guest on the show anticipating the Guga steak. Like they were just a viewer and then they got on the show, but if they were a dog their tail would be wagging the whole time. It's insane to watch every, single, time. I wonder if Guga will look into fermented foods, and figure out ancient combinations in his way.
and before he dry ages the thing in 1000$ wine xD doubt that would be a good combo, but I'd be interested to know the science lol
Not sure about the olive oil but where I live we have a traditional dish called "Carne la Garnita" from Romania and we make it before Christmas to last the whole year and I really recommend it for you to try. It's smoked pig's tenderloin, ribs and sausage that we fry in a lot of pig's fat and than we put the meat into a jar and strain the rest of the fat on top to fill the jar and preserve the meat. And whenever you want to eat some we just fry it a bit with some of the fat mostly to just warm it up, and the best part about it is making french fries with the fat is really good and I think you would enjoy it.
Do you store it at room temp?
The fat preservation works. If I do a big pork lion roast that I won't eat in the next few days, I cook the whole thing and then I put a few cooked portions back in the freezer submerged in its own juices and fat. Comes out great when I want it later.
Sonny is back in the house ❤
As always, a nice collab!
Sonny is such a chill guy
I feel like since you already tried beer and hops separately you should try "draff", it's the post-ferment beer waste composed of yeast and hops; could make an absolutely crazy steak.
Isn’t that just Vegemite?
@@JCSalomon I was under the impression that vegimite was the leftover brewers yeast; draff is a combination of leftover yeast and spent/used hops.
@@PaperScarecrow, might be. Variations on a theme.
could make....... you throw up
1:42 guga, don't use hellmann's .. that is not mayonnaise. Trust me, im from the country of fries and mayo. Next time, make your own mayo, it's very easy. A yolk, a bit of mustard, salt pepper, and a bit of vinegar. Add a bit of oil, start to whip it, and keep adding oil till you have the wanted amount. After, add more of what lacks. If it's too stiff, add a bit more vinegar, and taste wise, you can add more salt pepper or mustard, till it fits your taste. That, is how you make mayo. It takes literally 3-5 minutes to do.
As a Greek this makes me happy. To this day a lot of us still do a… prolonged marination of sorts. Some of the best grilled chicken you’ll have is after a couple of days submersed in a seasoned OO
I love Sonny! What an awesome collaboration
Guga can you dry a steak in applestroop? It’s a traditional Dutch apple caramel syrup. I’m almost sure it won’t work but hey that hasn’t stopped you before
sugary stuff goes bad
He tried honey, didn't work
Het werkt niet
He didnt even cover it completely, just let it there in theopen with honey dripping off it. that experiment was a failure from the beginning. He needs to let it rest IN the honey not let the honey drip off and expose the steak@@Edino_Chattino
Guga you should try a dry aged steak covered in fruits, such as strawberries, apples etc. i think it'll be cool
Can't wait to see a wagyu a5 30 days dry aged in pineapple juice.
it would probably mold because of the water and sugar
The fruit would go bad if it's too long, but he should definitely do steak marinades in fruits.
Jam might be better as the sugar means it's less likely to go bad
fruit juices ferment over time, you'd probably get everyone drunk eating steak, but if it's cooked then the fermented 'alcoholic' nature of the fruit liquid would burn away.
@13:10 Sonny said "oofta" ... I haven't heard that in years since visiting my great aunt who lived in the UP of Michigan in a town called Christmas. Yes, the entire town is named after Christmas stuff. She lived on Jingle Bell Lane.
People here realizing that oil is actually fat for the first time in their life
You're wrong
@@ezygoat I've never been wrong in my life, which makes you wrong instead
In Spain, we often prepare oil-preserved dishes, especially using pork loin fillets. For optimal results, add some garlic and a spoonful of paprika.
2 food youtubers that I enjoy watching having a collab with each other?!! My life is complete
They have a couple times before.
Nice to see you guys together again
Dry aged with cucumber. Iykyk
Oil keeping the steak from oxidizing is pretty much what id expect, in the metal industry we coat metal in oil to... well... prevent oxidation. Cool to see a practical example of it working on meat though!
I swear this guy is everywhere in such a short amount of time... first he's in Malaysia, then he's in Minnesota, now he's with guga
thought you were gonna end if off with "now he's in Guga"
@@pacificcoastbreeze lol wut
A steak in a fishbowl full of olive oil is something I'll never forget
I'm surprised you didn't just whip up some of your own mayo. Helmann's is the best store bought mayo, but it still has some additives that may have effected the final result, whereas if you made your own mayo, you can just make it with eggs and oil. You could even have made some mayo with eggs and any other fat, like all that beef tallow and duck fat you keep around. Wagyu mayo might be interesting.
Wagyu Tallow for Mayo? Sounds like a Good Idea
He should try again with different mayo's. Store bought mayo, Regular Homemade Mayo, and Wagyu Beef Fat mayo
@@lVl_A_L_B_O_R_O Duke's is basically the same thing, but the nutrition info says there's more fat in it, probably from using more egg yolks, less egg whites.
@@Death_Lord_Eleressai they are not the same thing, at least, no different than hellman's and any other mayo. Different flavor profile
with any mix of oil and water based liquids (an emulsion) the different fats used affect the setting temperature, or whether it goes lumpy. You need a low setting temperature so that the mayo / sauce/ whatever will pour out of the bottle............... so a lot of experimentation regarding type of oil, and mixture ratio of oils to water based..........for taste; and whether it will pour or not.... at standard fridge temperatures.
We just tried a short version of the Mayo steak, it was amazing!!! We did a 5 day age in the Mayo amd finished with salt and pepper on the charcoal grill. I would definitely recommend this even on a shortened time frame. The tenderness of the steak and the slight creamy texture made it a great Christmas dinner steak!! 10/10 experiment that I will make for future meals!
What brand or type of mayo did you use?
@@syndicate5357 we used Hellmann's Real Mayonnaise.
@@syndicate5357 Yeaaah, would like to know this too.
I'm gonna try it. I would use Dukes , or Blue Plate. I lean toward Dukes myself
I normally use mayo as a marinade for my bbq for pork or chicken breasts, everything become super tender. 20-30 minutes is enough actually. Max 1 hour maybe, I ve never done it that long.
Love how your friendship with sonny evolved...love your show..❤
Hope we’ll see Gordon one day on that chair !
If he shows up, the side dish should be a sausage-donut sandwich
Reason Angel wasn't in this episode there's a good chance his heads marinated in the fridge for that cast iron skillet he wrecked 😂 much love Guga fan ❤
Idk if it's been done, but I would enjoy a horse radish dry age or maybe even Arby's horsey sauce experiment. I absolutely love horse radish. Wonder how it would turn out.
Try it
Another interesting experiment. One thing I learned over 50 years ago, though, is to NEVER season a GOOD steak before cooking. With most ribeye, strips, and filet mignons, all that's needed is a good sear for flavor. If the cut isn't quite up to snuff, you can always add salt and/or pepper at the table. If it needs anything more than that, it's not a very good steak or it wasn't cooked properly. When you're spending good money on steak, make sure it's good and then handle it accordingly.
I always do this, it marinates with olive oil. You might wanna add some spice , garlic and onion in it to smoothen the process. And we actually use this method for sea bass or bluefish. It works pretty neatly (and i love olive oil so in no way it is biased😂)
12:58 creamy saltiness huh...
It was very interesting to see what happened to the mayo steak after the dry aging process. Can’t wait to see more videos in the future!
mayo or olive oil in a vacuum sealed bag with the steak would be interesting because it's more controlled, no oxygen would likely tamper the condition of the steak or the fats/oil. And in a sense, it's what marinated steaks in grocers are actually like since they use fats/oils with seasoning and store it in a fridge to be sold, but people consume it too soon so it's not fully tenderized.
That makes sense. Thanks for telling me
nice to see you both again!
This side dish we call "musaka" here in slovenia. Its almost the same, just that we use minced meat and throw in an egg so its more structured. Try it out, its veeeerrryy gooooooodd
Guga, you are a true mad food scientist! I never leave an episode without learning something!
Guga needs to record, reading children’s books as a side gig. Such a friendly voice lol.
“As I say, it is enough talking and it is time to go to sleep” 💤
@@MrVincelarsonlol
Now hold up. You can call Sonny a food critic if you want. Even food "expert" doesn't describe his work. He's a food explorer. He has traveled near and far to sample the world's most wonderful offerings and met people from some of the most colorful cultures on Earth. This may sound like simping - and fine, maybe it is - but few today are dong what Sonny has set out to do. What a dynamic duo in this video. Cheers to you both.
☀️🍆🏇
I hate that "simping" even became a thing. Can't even compliment people these days 😅
@@jasper.maxwell Completely agree. Wish I could zap that word out of existence lol.
I think Anthony Bourdain beat him to it first, RIP.
You should also look into Mark Weins. He’s really awesome at this too. In fact they’ve collaborated a few times
Finally, you made something interesting and somewhat edible.
Thank you for using the correct "Meat Slicing Knife" paired with a "Solid Hardwood Cutting Board" /
Let's get cooking. Master Chefs on staff
in my country old traditional meet keeping in fat is little bit different than this...we first cook the meat than we put it in fat that way you can take it out and eat immediately only thing you need to do is heat it up on a pan or in the oven...these days this is very rare but some old people still do this :) i tried it once and its just amazing :D
One thing I would like to see is it done with proper mayonnaise as in home-made we all have Hellmann’s. There’s no getting away from it, but it is full of preservatives so as side-by-side between Hellmann’s and home-made mayonnaise would be a good one with without the preservatives and the E numbers. sorry for mentioning those, but they’re definitely in there.
Can we all just appreciate Guga's work ethic and grind. always blessing us with high quality videos, THANK YOU GUGA
I wanna send Leo to culinary school so he learns more foodie words to impress the guests with.
He can just work for JW part time
Those steaks look good. The side dish takes the cake though!!!☺️
Fun Fact: Titanium Dioxide is an ingredient often added to foods like ranch dressing, mayo, confectionaries, and ice-creams to keep them white. Which makes sense seeing as how the substance mitigates UV oxidation. ...It helps keep your skin white too. It's sun screen.
I am going to try that beef and potato dish.
Intersting enough, I use olive oil to marinate my chicken and fish, and occasionally beef when I eat it, which is rare (no pun intended). Of course, since I don't have a dry ager, I can't try that experiment at the moment. But already 24-48 hours in an air-tight container works wonders on tenderizing (even a few hours actually). Of course at work it was salt, pepper and sunflower oil then vacuum sealed.
Guga, faz uma pasta de Jambu (usando a flor) e dry age uma picanha no jambu
I always crave these steaks but my poor self can't get steaks as it's so expensive! If only we have 1 or 2 dollar steaks.
You should have your own ranch and raise your own wagyu cows so that you'll have wagyu steaks and even sell them.
This guy will experiment with anything.
LOL toothpaste 😂😂
and sonny will eat anything he cook, but cucumber 😂
theory: fry in low temp olive oil until it reaches 135 degrees F. then sear. compare how it is to the aged one. Mostly just curious to see if there is, in fact, a difference between doing one fresh and doing one dry aged. (You could cook one at 135F for a month in olive oil if you would like to, but... I don't know if that would be safe :S)
There is a reason you are at 4.65 mil followers!! Your content is so original, entertaining and lets be honest you are the uncle we all want!!
Has Guga ever had an actually easy side dish?
Wdym, picana potato cake is so simple😂
I think one time the accidentally made something easy. One of the rarest events I ever witnessed.
BUTTER NEXT
Done that
How does this not cause botulism?
🙄Contrary to what you read in the racist MainStreamMedia, Not Everything causes Botulism.
you cook your meat, ideally.
If you eat at a steakhouse they have 30 day or older aged steak
They used to cook fatty sheep and completely cover meat in rendered fat. Jelly was preserved with layer of paraffin.
I wonder what the olive oil steak would be like if you add other things during the aging process. Like garlic or slivered onion into the oil.
Yeah, once I saw that steak dropped in the olive oil I was half-expecting some garlic cloves and peppercorns to dive in after it.
Wow good food but we had everyday 100 % C.A 😨😡🤢🥵🤢🤮🤮🤮 after 1year
Olive oils an untapped steak secret. Gives one of the most amazing smoky sears imaginable if cooked right. I like steak with a very smoky sear so I always go with olive oil.
We do this in Spain all the time. Specially with Iberic pork.
The meat tastes amazing.
I normally use mayo as a marinade for my bbq for pork or chicken breasts, everything become super tender. 20-30 minutes is enough actually. Max 1 hour maybe, I ve never done it that long.
I might have to try the mayo one. Mayo always seems to be the one that goes well with marinating a meat. I’ve seen it in turkey and burgers and always made it taste great so I wasn’t surprise much when it came to the taste but I was hesitant when I saw the color
You should try to age a steak in Chartreuse! It's a French herbaceous liqueur, made by Monks. I suggest aging in Yellow Chartreuse over green.
Just your voice calm me more than any ASMR could ever do
That was a crossover that I needed. I love both channels
When I started cooking steaks 40 years ago I marinated them in olive oil and basil. They were awesome! Never aged one.
The 'meat cake' looks both amazing and so simple!!
Hey from Australia 🇦🇺 im glad i found this channel...the way this man talks, prepares and cooks meat 🍖 could convert a die hard vegan. Yummo.
i swear picanha is the most underrated cut
TRY COVERING STEAK WITH MAYO AND SEARING ON A SKILLET!!!! Try it over charcoal too!!!
Similar to using mayo on bread for grilled cheese! Will it make a crispy umami crust? Will it melt and turn out terrible? ONLY GUGA KNOWS!
It’s good to see Guga and Sonny making video together.
as always a video, i ended up hungry as hell after watching! @GugaFoods, please tell me, at what temperature you stored thees steaks for a month? thanx
