I replaced BUTTER with MAYO on steaks and this happened!

steak and butter were just made for each other when the butter hits the steak at the right time it leaves little particles of golden brown milk solids behind and that gets infused into the surface of the steak making it taste better however is basting steaks with mayo as good as butter well today we're running the steak experiment to find out there's a debate going on for decades bread with butter or Mayo is better I decided to go ahead and test that theory first I coated the bread with a good amount of butter followed by the Mayo toast them both up and I'll tell you one thing there's no comparison butter is much better but Mayo gets a better crust but will that be the same with steaks well for that I chose these three beautiful New York STP they are 1 and 1/2 in thick and should be perfect for today's experiment the first thing to do is to go ahead and get them seasoned I chose to do so with a good amount of salt Follow by freshly ground black pepper and garlic powder once they were fully seasoned I went ahead and bag them up vacuum seal them and they are now ready for Sev I'll be cooking all of them in the same container at 135° hi for 2 hours this will cook them to Perfection as that was happening was perfect because it allow me time to go ahead and make an awesome side dish and this one it's super simple and easy to make it is called egg Hoppers and here's how to do it into a bowl you want to combine 7 G of yeast followed by 1 cup of water mix everything well and this is ready on a separate Bowl I combine two cups of rice flour followed by 1 teaspoon of sugar and 1 cup of coconut milk mix everything well and combine those ingredients as then you want to add the previous one we just made mix it one once again and our batter is now ready this is the consistency we're looking for to make egg Hoppers you're going to be needing something like this a nice oval shaped pan I first started with a good amount of oil and with a preper tower spread it all around then once it was heated up I added one generous spoon of the batter now nice and slow I started to spin it around the key here is to get a nice thin layer of batter all the way around it's going to take a little bit of time to cook the batter and in the meantime I went ahead and threw one egg inside now you want to cover it up and steam the egg egg and after about 2 minutes since this is a non-stick pan it is super easy to go ahead and remove it to take it up a notch I went ahead and added some chili crisp followed by a little bit of scallion usually it's served just like this but I thought that bread was going to be a perfect combination to go along with it so I went ahead and toast it up some baguette followed by a little bit of olive oil right on top now this is what I'm talking about if you've never had egg Hoppers I highly recommend because they are delicious and I'm hoping the same thing will happen for today's experiment talking about that by this time my steaks were fully cooked so I went ahead took them out and set them down on a cooling rack and here's how this experiment is going to go down one of them we're going to be keeping a traditional the other one will be basted with butter Thyme and garlic and to put the Mayo to the test I'm doing the same exact thing but I'll be using the Mayo to base with it for that I combine a good amount of garlic followed by th and of course Mayo mixed everything well and that was ready and don't forget I'll also be using Thyme and garlic because now I know exactly what you're thinking my sticks don't look that good right now but watch [Music] this all right everybody and here we got our beautiful steak with a very nice and incredible side dish it is called egg Hoppers straight from Sri Lanka egg Hoppers from Sri Lanka what a mouthful of words never tried Sri Lankan food I know all the Sri Lankan friends already they're going to roast me because it's not done perfectly but I give my best shot

just not very appetizing I tell you that right now just when I thought steaks couldn't get any unhealthier Google goes ahead and Bas a steak and freaking Mayo yeah man I don't know I think I might have to go with the butter one just cuz dude I love the garlic butter in time it's like my favorite all time I enjoy it but the butter is better for me everybody they are all phenomenal you got to see
