How do you cook your steak? - Page 4

Trumpetpimp -- no offense, but this was a thread about how to cook a steak. I don't think anyone wanted to or cared to hear that your a vegetarian. Injecting such a comment into a thread like this implies a hidden motive that I don't think would be too welcome. I'm sure it was a perfectly innocent comment, and it really wasn't offensive at all, but I just don't think it belongs in a thread requesting ideas on how to cook a steak.

Nothing personal! I have no problem with you not wanting to eat meat -- I think you're wrong, but then, you would think the same about us carnivores as well!! So, bygones being bygones...don't try to convince us steak-lovers that we're wrong to enjoy a sizzling ribeye, and I won't pounce on any vegan boards, either.

AS for how to cook a steak? I think Pint-o-murphys has the best method. For me, it's gotta be medium or medium rare. Anything more and you cook the flavor right out of it. AN NO A1!!!!! I promise. I used to be an A1 addict. Then I had a properly cooked Ribeye and I've never gone gack. Salt and pepper are the only additions you need (Though I will confess to an occasional love of a fine mushroom sauce which I'll share later). If you're eating a steak and you need any kind of sauce for it to taste good, then it wasn't cooked right.

Savor the flavor!! Beef has plenty of it all by itself!

I worked at Ken's Steak House ( you know the salad dressing--there really was a Ken) for years. Twice during that period someone ordered raw steak. Big restaurants like Ken's use prime meat, not choice like you get in the supermarket. A first class prime piece of meat doesn't look good at all uncooked, not like that bright juicy red stuff you get in the supermarked. Well, anyway, twice during my employment, someone came in an orderd an absolutely raw steak, so raw that they complained that the steak had been sitting too long under the heat lamps. Each time we delivered the steak, all the cooks, dishwashers, unbusy waitresses clustered around the window to watch the cold, raw, steak be consumed. I can still remember it and its been years, many years

Thanks for the lesson on forum etiquette. The first post was a light comment that was designed to be humorous and was devoid of malice. The following posts were a civilsed discussion the stemmed from my first post. Nobody got upset. Most people didn't even notice. I didn't hijack the thread and the only person that seemed offended was you. I just felt like participating in the discussion.
