I cooked this beast of a Rib Eye Steak for one of our OG's BUT....! Make no mis-steak! 🥲
Every Rib Eye we send is cooked to perfection.
With a little drizzle of macha oil for extra depth.
Beautifully seared, perfect interior, virtually zero gray line 😎😎😎🏆🏆🏆
Come by and let me slap you with Flavaaaa Flaveeee!
Yeah Boyyyyyyyy!

Our Pork Belly AL PASTOR is flying.
Making any dish with Pastor Adobo is a tight skill.
You want to get that charred finish. The right consistency and coating of the adobo on the meat.
You need to understand solubility, viscosity, aromatic impact compounds, maillard browning and functional seasoning. The first recipe I developed when I started cooking at 15 years old.... that was about 5 years ago 😳
I know.
Chef years are like dog years. Every year feels like 7.
Much love
Peace ✌️

Medium Rare.
What would young people should work in hospitality?
Anything there's to learn about anything. You can learn working in hospitality.
Science, psychology, economics, finance, marketing, art, history. You name it. You can learn it.
This is Dave dropping some truth.

Hey Yo! Listen to uncle Smokey. And if you follow my advice... Tell your people... "Smokey from Homies taught me this trick."
And if the secret cabal of Master Chefs get me for revealing their secrets go straight to the press.
Keep it nerd Homies.
Smokey loves you ♥️

I got these 400grs Rib Eye Steaks on Special.
You know I'll do'em justice.
Grab one before they're gone. Otherwise that'd be a huge missed-steak 🥺💀😉
I swear I cook better than I write puns. ✍️
See at the pass.
Touch base and say hello to your boy Smokey.
Peace ✌️

We got Tostadas. And we're not afraid to use them.
Hake, Kiwi, Lime, Jalapeño, Avocado, Cantaloupe. Prickly pear, Micro Herbs.
We've told these are mean tostadas, these slap and slap hard.
And if you're really nice, we promise we'll send Smokey himself to run it to your table and explain why this works.
Much Love and Maximum Respect 🙏
The Homies.
