I need to get another bottle of Redbreast. That is fantastic whiskey.

Definitely 10/10.

9.99/10. Troy

. Kill it 'n grill it. When you say Alton Brown method, did you cook your steak just using the charcoal chimney? Or in a skillet on the stove then oven? I plan on doing a reverse sear on a big ass piece of steak when I get off of work tonight.

Wow! That looks seriously good, although I think I'd make through about 1/4 of that much food... maybe less. Regardless 10/10

Kill n grill is an auto 10/10. But you sir have outdone yourself. My only suggestion would be to spread out the goods a little more for us to admire but you done real good.

10/10. I really dig that the only green is the whisky bottle!

ETA - I couldn't even bring myself to assess a deduction for the glock grenade!

Nice dinner

Not bad for the first try.

Next time pay more attention to the focus, use a tripod if necessary.

Lighting is ok, but its a bit over exposed. maybe drop your shutter speed a stop.

Food looks ok, but needs to be less cluttered of a scene.

Steak is overcooked.

10/10.

Even if you hadn't killed and grilled, score wouldn't be different.

Temperature looks good at the very center, but turns to medium/medium well awfully fast. Sear looks decent. -1
Plate is too crowded, IMO. I would have put the sides on their own plates. -1
