Deep dives
The Best Way to Prepare a Steak
Grilling is the best way to prepare a steak if you have access to a grill. Pan-searing is a good option for those without a grill, but it can be messy. Sous vide is not a preferred method for either writer.
Ranking Keto-Friendly Sauces for Proteins
Ginger scallion sauce is ranked as the best sauce for proteins due to its versatility. Next is chimichurri, followed by tomatillo salsa and tzatziki sauce. Basil pesto is ranked last due to its limited use as a meat topping.
Favorite Fast Food Keto Option
When in a pinch, In-N-Out's protein-style cheeseburger is a popular choice. El Pollo Loco is also mentioned as a good option, with grilled chicken, beans, and side salads as low-carb choices.
Best Low Carb Restaurant Type
Korean barbecue and hot pot are considered good low-carb options due to the ability to choose and control the ingredients. Other types of restaurants can be challenging for low-carb diets, particularly sushi restaurants.
Dave and Chris continue to thrive through their Master of Your Domain challenge while playing How to Menu with Chicago’s Anelya (the new Ukrainian spot from Parachute’s Johnny Clark and Beverly Kim) and Curtis Stone’s Gwen in Los Angeles. Later in the episode, the two have a low-carb-themed MOIF.
