You're doing yourself a disservice by not cooking that steak on a charcoal grill instead of in a pan!

Just kidding. I do like grilled steak, but my favorite way (which also happens to be the easiest way) is to cook a steak in a hot cast iron skillet. The way it rapidly sears the outside locks in so much juice and flavor. It's not a good method for pan sauce, though, unless you like it with little black flecks of metal.

??? Sounds like you have something wrong with your pan. Pieces of metal shouldn't come off of it.

Pork over the past couple of years has surpassed beef for me for a favorite meat. A good pulled pork can't be beat.

Shrimp is my seafood of choice, but I also enjoy trout and salmon. And it's been waaaaaaay too long since I had walleye.

Fave specific dish? Blackened prime rib from Misty's in Lincoln with a side of horseradish sauce.

If it was alive, and someone has a recipe for preparing it, I probably like it.

I enjoy meat of all kinds, but I get a particular perverse enjoyment out of "weird" meats that most people can't stomach. Any kind of pickled animal part, or stuff like head cheese and jaeternice are all delicious, IMO.


Your NE Iowa coming thru there.

It is freaking amazing. I don't use a ton of the sauce, and honestly mix a lot of it with the rice that I get as a side, but the peppercorn is awesome. I think Janny uses that recipe and it's awesome.


But is it awesome?

I'm a fruitarian. Only eat fruit that has fallen off the tree so that it is, in fact, already dead. Everything else is just too brutal to comprehend.

It was cruel of you to let it fall to the ground. Haven't you considered how much that hurt; how frightened it was on the way down; how desperately it clung to the branch? You could have at least put a pillow out for the poor thing!

I think all these steak posts have been wafting their way toward my hubby. He just called & said he's picking up steak & fixins on the way home.

Okay, it doesn't actually have to be red meat. What is your favorite meat dish? Steak, chicken parmesan, pork chops and applesauce, barbecued pork, etc., etc.

I usually eat mostly chicken, but when I'm pregnant I want red meat. I mostly crave steaks and gyros.

Me too.

First choice for me a velvety tender beef tenderloin rubbed with vegetable oil and my favorite spices seared shut over high heat on my grill then lower the temp and finish at about 300 degrees until my finger presses into the center without resistance.
Second choice is a beatifully marbled ribeye prepared the same as above.
