/ck/ greetings.
I am in Spain and i have purchased this beautiful cut of retinto beef from my local butcher. The problem is that im American and i dont speak Spanish, so i cant explain the cuts i like to him so he usually cuts whatever. Now i have this huge steak that i definitely wont be able to eat in one sitting. My question is, how do i go about eating half of this? Cut it raw, cook one piece, then cook the other later? Or cook it all now and just save what i cant eat? Of course ill cook it medium rare with just coarse salt and pepper. All advice is appreciated

Ok so cutting it now is best. I just dont which cuts i can get out this bad boy.

It's a chuleton. They broil it to medium rare and slice it up and people can finish slices on a hto as fuck earthenware plate if it's not done to their liking. It's usually for 2 people at least.
My advice would be to get a nice crust in a pan and then finish it in teh oven.
Ok i fucked up, i cut this put of the steak. I will eat the rest of it later. The nice fatty part
Final product. I mixed the drippings with satans blood hot sauce and used that as a dipping sauce. I followed anons advice with crusting on the stove and finishing in the oven. Its probably the best steak ive ever cooked so thanks

Reverse sear is better.

Wait no I take it back, the handle of your knife is all in the drippings, why would you do that

It doesn't actually make much difference, but finishing in the oven allows you a bit more control over the temperature imo

someone stuck gum in the upper left portion of your steak, op. sorry for your loss

Yes, but for that you need to keep prodding your meat with a thermometer. Searing and then just throwing it in the oven and calculating when done just by looking at it is more manly.
