Скачать или смотреть $10 Chuck Steak Challenge: 3 Ways to Cook the Cheapest Cut

🥩 Can you turn Australia's cheapest cut of meat into something worth it?

Paul Gray (South Africa 🇿🇦) and Jackie M. (Malaysia 🇲🇾) tackle chuck crest - the cheapest cut you can find at an Australian butcher for just $10-14/kg

We test 3 different cooking methods:
✅ Sous vide (57°C for 2 hours)
✅ Reverse sear (90°C oven then pan)
✅ Straight pan sear (seasoned raw)

PLUS we make:
🔥 Malaysian-inspired Hot sauce
🍄 Rich mushroom sauce with homemade beef stock

💰 BUDGET BREAKDOWN:
Chuck crest: $10-14/kg
Total meal cost: Under $10
Beef bones for stock: $3-5/bag ("dog bones" from butcher!)

🏆 WINNER: Sous vide method created the most tender result, even at just 2 hours (recommend 4-6 hours for best results)

💡 PRO TIPS FROM THIS EPISODE:
Buy "dog bones" from butchers - most white customers don't want them!
Render your own beef tallow from stock fat
Chuck crest needs low & slow to break down tough fibres
Don't cook past medium-rare with cheap cuts
