I was vegetarian since 1994 (when I was 15) and vegan until April of this year. Shocking, huh?
Anyway, this is a filet mignon I got from Butcher Box, which is a service I use to get high-quality meat delivered fresh. Seared in a cast iron skillet and baked at 400ºF until medium rare. Basted with garlic butter during the searing. I didn't have to work today, and I made this for myself for lunch. It was amazing.
I have never cooked steak too. But also, I have never eat it !
Welcome to rest of the food chain! ;)
Thanks!
They look delicious! Looks like a good lunch to me....not bad for someone who hasn't cooked it before.
Thanks! That's exactly what it was for me, a great lunch. I am looking forward to trying again and improving my skills with time. I was mostly worried about accidentally overcooking it. That's what I did with everything I cooked at first after decided to add meat back into my diet after such a long time. I was a little paranoid about food safety and got pretty extreme with my cooking times. A little bit of time on YouTube, and I had all the tips I needed, though, and it's been much better lately.
great job looks good keep it up
Thank you!
@marksheppard you're welcome could you follow me please
welcome to the club.
thanks! :)
It's appealing to the eye haha my bestfriend doesn't even like cooking
But why did you change ?
@imohsaviourwisdo I was curious about that too. Thanks for asking. :)
@marksheppard that looks amazing! Was it grass fed? I used to coach the Bulletproof Diet. It's amazing how the right foods can truly "turn on" your brain and reboot health. Glad you found something that worked for you. Way to go!
Thanks! Yes, it was grass fed and grass finished beef.
I believe excluding meat and all animal products was having a negative effect on my physical and mental health. It was hard to finally come to that conclusion, but I'm glad I did.
It's good you're working to find what works best for you. I've known a few "O" blood type (the type which requires the most animal proteins in their diet) vegans and they all share the same characteristics (after a few years):
Kudos and great health in your new venture! :D
Okay... Nice steak anyway
Interesting. What changes did you notice in your body and/or energy after eating meat for the first time in so long?

Don't worry, it is nearly vegetarian. The cow had eaten just normal grass all day before and had a healthy vegetarian life. Enjoy your meal !

i like cooking every sunday i made some thing special in home my own hand last sunday i made the grilled sandwich that very much like the children and my parents
im impressed it turned out so well for your first time cooking it :D
That is an awful pretty steak...bet it was delicious...
It was amazing! I have another one I'm excited to make. I'm going to make it the exact same way. Haters be damned if they think it's not cooked enough! :)
For the first time looks delicious!
There is nothing like meat, right? friend
Not bad for your firts steak, it looks so delicious. Wish it
Can I download and eat this meat PLEASE?
Unfortunately, I ate it all already. :)
Great work! That looks exquisite! Glad you’re apart of the rest of us :)
Welcome back, friend, you have to eat all the meat you have not eaten in years. but take care of your cholesterol hehehe
Yummy
They look uncooked
oh no, thats perfect.
Wow looks delicious 👍👍
Medium rare. They were delicious and so tender you could just cut it with a fork.
Fillets you are suppose to cook rare to medium rare.
This steak would be rare.
Soo,
You're saying that after 24 years you just decide to buy a Fillet from a butcher that you say you been using to get meat delivered? Yet you don't eat meat, and you say in the title that this is the first steak that you ever cooked?
Tell me the mentality of this post?
And that is not how you cook a Fillet
And that is not MEDIUM Rare.
That's Rare.
No, that's not what I'm saying. Sorry if that wasn't clear. That wasn't actually meant to be a post about how I wasn't vegan anymore. It's been nearly 3 months since I decided to no longer be vegan and add meat and animal products back into my diet. It was a tough decision at the time, but it is one that I am glad I made now.
Because I had not included meat in my diet for so long, however, learning how to cook it has been a little challenging. This meal was not the first meat I've cooked, but it was the first steak or something that was a little more costly.
As far as me not doing it right, then I can't wait to get better, because whatever I did today was delicious.
With due respect but, when you were vegetarian and then vegan, were you sure about what you were doing? I mean, were you conscious about your actions? Thanks.
Yes, I was definitely conscious about my actions. :)

Is it pork ?or beef mutton?
Beef tenderloin.
Como una experta consumidora de las mejores carnes argentinas, de carnes formadas a campo a verdes pastos y excelente calidad, te aconsejo que la cosines unos minutos màs .. sabràs lo que es rico realmente! jamàs una carne que se precie de buena calidad debe tener rojo sanguinolento. por màsq ue los nuevos cocineros digan lo contrario. saludos muy càlidos desde Argentina Rosmarì
Por fin veo una respuesta realmente consistente. No comparto el consumo de carnes, pero respeto a quienes lo hacen. Nadie se había referido al tema como lo ha hecho Ud. la felicito.
looks delicious sir!
Hi i have some phishes i send you some phishes fry them and enjoy

For the first steak you’ve cooked I’d say you more than passed lol. It looks delicious!
Thanks! I asked some friends for tips and watched some YouTube videos before trying it.
This is a success story.
eww looks disgusting!
Life is so many things to enjoy, welcome to a wider gamut of flavors...!
great man
A scent can be smelled through the screen
Not shocking at all. I was living strict vegetarian for 10 years...until I got pregnant and could not resist a steak. :)
I would say, welcome back to a balanced life.
I was a vegetarian for a year, and the truth is that I do not know how I achieve it ... I like meat so much! How did you manage to not eat meat for 24 years ?! I TAKE MY HAT OFF TO YOU!!
PD: I must also say that to be the first time you do a steak, it looks wonderful.
Greetings from Venezuela!
I also love eating steak..
Just curious about a reason that turned you into this meat world.
Can you teac me cook a steak
