Following foodtubers hack of the month. Wasted so much food on their lies. The most expensive mistake was packing steak in salt overnight. Another was “fast” brisket. I’m not talking about “don’t try this at home” cooks, I’m talking about “this is so amazing you have to try it”.
I just turned a perfectly good ribeye into a salt lick. I always air cure my my steaks in the fridge for 24 hours but that’s just a light layer of salt. This thing looked like a baked Alaska coming off the grill. It was awful.
I do a dry brine, making sure to measure out the salt to around 1% steaks weight so you DONT over salt it. It’s like packing it with salt, just a reasonable amount

What happened to the steak

Ordinary Sausage shouldn’t be followed either way.
Overnight? That must have been salty af. I salt, rinse, dry mine, but only for roughly 10min per 1/2” of thickness, adjusted to taste.

I salt mine overnight and pat them off before I sear them.
Isn’t dry brining usually multiple days?
