And these are the star of today's show, they are two beautiful choice grade tomahawk steaks. As you
can see they are one and a half inches thick. And this was suggested by you guys, you asked me to
steam steak and tea, that is exactly what we're gonna do. Now since I've cooked a lot of tomahawk
steaks in my life one of the things that I like to do is to tressen it, this will ensure that the cap
will not fall apart on me. Just tie it up to the bone and that will prevent it from falling apart
on you. Once I was done take a look, that is such an easy thing to do and you will ensure success.
Because the only thing left to do now is to get it seasoned. For that I kept it really simple, a
good amount of salt, followed by freshly ground black pepper, and garlic powder. As you can see I
made sure to season this thing well. This is a thick cut of meat so make sure to season both
sides but most importantly do not forget about the edges. And now that we got it seasoned let me show
you the tea I'm gonna be using; lemon and ginger. Now I have no idea how this is gonna turn out or
if it's gonna be any good or bad, but hey you guys requested and I'm not gonna let you down when I
open up the bag take a look, this is what it looks like. It seems to have a lot of different spices in
there. The next thing to do is to make a lot of tea. For that i just boiled some water and threw
in a bunch of tea pack on it, let it simmer, and extract all of that flavor. The good thing is that
with this amount of bags it does not take long. In the end I was left with a good amount of tea take
a look. Since I was not sure if this was going to turn out good I made sure that my side dish would.
Now this is delicious. Are you guessing what it is? Well let me just show it to you. The first thing to
do is to cook up some bacon. You want to let that fat render nice and slow because you want to get
the crispy bits. Cook it into the bacon fat start bubbling up real hard that is how you know you
fully cook the whole bacon. And as always make sure you save the bacon fat. As once you are done fully
cooking take a look, this is what you're left with, beautiful bacon crispy bits. The next step is to
make some mac and cheese. For that i started with that bacon fat we just rendered, followed by a good
amount of butter, then throw in all-purpose flour so that we can make our sauce. Mix everything well
and cook that raw flour. If you skip this step it's not going to be good. How do you know when
your flour is fully cooked? Well when it starts smelling like pie dough you know it's ready.
Then add in heavy cream mix everything well because it's gonna start thickening up on you
real quick. And as always remember exact amount and ingredients always on the description down
below for you. As the next step is to add some cheese. So first I added American cheese, you need
this one to emulsify everything together, then I throw in sharp cheddar, followed by white cheddar,
mix everything together so the cheese can melt. Once that's done throw in the pasta. Mix it well
once again to ensure that every single pasta is fully coated with the sauce as the next thing to
add is our crispy bacon. Now this is delicious by itself already make sure to taste it for seasoning,
if you need to add salt now is the time. Put everything into a cooling tray with a parchment
paper on the bottom, spread everything out as if he was a dough. You're looking for about one
inches thick. As the next thing to do is to let it fully cool down on your refrigerator. Once the time
is up take a look, everything is fully solid. Now you can cut them in squares or just use a round
mold like this to cut them out. To do so it's pretty easy, remember they're not fully frozen.
Just insert the mold right in the middle and you're left with a perfect patty of mac and cheese.
Now that is as easy as it gets! And remember not to let anything go to waste. The next thing to do
is to bread them. Like always you first start by dunking it in flour, followed by egg wash,
and finish it off with bread crumbs, because this is what you should be left with. Now I know what
you're thinking, it's gonna turn out delicious. As the only thing left to do now is to fry them up.
To do that I throw them in at 350 degrees fahrenheit oil make sure to get a nice golden
brown crust and flip them as many times as necessary. As once they are golden brown this
is what they look like. If you want throw in a little bit of parsley for presentation
because this is the perfect side dish for those tomahawk steaks. Talking about that this is the
container I'll be using, it is a good container as I use to steam my briskets all the time. First I'll
be putting a beautiful searing both of them, once that's done I'll be using my wireless
thermometers to ensure that I do not overcook them. One of them is going to be steamed in tea,
the other one will be cooking in indirect heat as both I'm looking for an internal temperature of
135 degrees fahrenheit. As now I say it is enough talking and it is time to cook them. So let's do it!

Tomahawk cooked in tea everybody. Only you guys can come up with that suggestion! And before we try
it I want to thank today's sponsor Dalstrong. A good knife is a must in the kitchen, that's why

Make sure you guys go check them out on the link in the description because now it's time to try this insane experiment.
All right everybody here we have our beautiful tomahawks. Are you hungry Angel?
-Oh I'm hungry now. -Uh now? You were not hungry before? -I wasn't that hungry before, but now I'm hungry.
-Notice that we have two steaks that can only mean one thing. What is that? -An experiment.
-That's right an experiment that they ask for it, not me. It's not my idea. -That's even worse
-Why? -I know they're crazy in the comments. If it goes south, it's not my fault everybody. -Oh so i can't fight you after this video?
-No, no absolutely not. It is not my fault. -Who do I fight after the video? -Well you put your comments on the
section down below and we'll see what happens. We have two beautiful tomahawk steak we have a nice
side dish here as well. I'm excited to try this one everybody. Emilio how good was it? -Very good!
-Emilio is on the background with his family. Enough talking all right so um
let's go for it. You ready? -Let's go. -Let's go with this one right here. -Smells amazing, smells
fantastic. You ready for it? -I'm waiting. -Okay enough talking. All right cheers everybody. -Cheers.
-Mmm! -That's nice! -Perfectly seasoned I must say. Nice buttery taste on the top.
-Nothing, nothing bad to say about this one. That's nice you did a little Guga seasoning here.
-Exactly, salt, pepper, garlic powder and a lot of butter everybody. You saw the video. Let's
go for the next, one you ready? -No what? -What do you mean? -Guga, you go and you talk about
the side dish and then you don't want to try the side dish. -You wanna try the side dish okay.
-I want to try this side dish. -That's right let's see Emilio talk good about it, I have no idea
if it's good. Is it good Emilio? -Very good I love it. -You love it? -Okay well let's try
it right now. You're not even going to split it bro? -No bro I'm going to bite this.
You like being too fancy, I'm using my fork already. -Enough talking let's try it. Cheers! -Cheers.
-Oh that's good! -That's good Emilio you're right. -I'm a fan. -Creamy and crunchy at the same time.
You know how normally you make macaroni and cheese and you put the crumbly crust on the
top that's how you make it. This you got the whole crumbly crust all the way around everybody. -Creamy,
very cheesy, there's some bacon in there. -Oh there's some bacon. -Some bacon in there boy. It's good!
-I put a lot of cheese, well you guys saw it a lot of cheese. There's more cheese than macaroni in
there. -Are you serious? -Yeah for real. -Oh my God. The amount of bacon that you put is like perfect. -Yeah. -Because I feel
like a little bit more than that. -It'll be too much. -It could be crunchy in there and stuff or it could
overpower the cheese, but it still tastes like macaroni and cheese. -Right absolutely. -And then
it has the bacon on top of that so. -I agree 100%. -Perfect 10 out of 10. -Oh wow! Enough
let's go ahead and try this steak right here. The second one, obviously you already know that
this one was the control so this one has to be the experimental steak. First thing I want
you to do is smell it. -Smell it? Why you want me to smell it? What'd you do? -Nothing it didn't do
anything. That smells fantastic. -Nothing it smells phenomenal. -Smells great everybody.
You think I don't, you think i don't know your sarcasm? This is more tender. -Maybe because it's
a little bit thicker. -It's like sliding on here. -Smell it tell me if you can tell the smell.
[sniff]
I can't tell. -Emilio also smelled and he said nothing about it, but I'll tell you one thing,
I think it's because I did the experiment and I smelled it as it was cooking everybody.
-Nah there's no.
-There's no smell? -If there is a smell that's very masked. -Really? -I cannot smell. -That's good, that's a
great sign. The interesting thing about this method is that this steak right here took 30 minutes to
cook, all right. This one right here only took 10 minutes, so it's like it speed up the process
incredibly, but at the same time, did it work? Well we're going to find out right now. Are you ready?
-I'm not sure. -He's worried. All right enough talking. -Is that you made a face. -Cheers everybody. -Cheers.
-Interesting. Angel? -No. -No what? -Don't do this again. -Do you notice the difference?
-At first it feels like it's more juicy, but then the juice tastes different.
-Mm-hmm. -And I don't like that. -You don't like this? -Don't mess with my juices man.
-I will say whatever difference it made it is extremely mild. -It's very small. -Yeah it's not
it's not um huge difference. -It's more acidic when you bite it it you have like that. -Wow
acidic. -100%. -Look at that, acidic everybody this boy knows what he's talking about. So here's the
deal i steamed this one in tea, specifically lemon tea. That's exactly what I did. -Well it was acidic.
-It's got some zing into it. -Yeah hey you never know if something's going to turn out good if you don't
give it a try, that is my opinion. Anyway guys these are the results. I hope you guys enjoyed this video.
