Triple D I Killing Me

[Drummond]

THAT is steak? Holy crap. Way to ruin some meat. All I need's some charcoal and a fork to cook a steak. That looks like it went through the the blender.

To me, a steak is a great slab of meat, juicy, succulent, the thicker the better, and all the more satisfying for it (w/onions, maybe, or just possibly garlic, if I'm in the mood for it). A slab of meat that you need to use a pneumatic drill on, because it's so thick. THAT is steak worthy of the name !! Anything from medium rare to well done does me .. I don't much care ...

Sir Drummond, and Gunny. No disrespect to Kathianne here, but that photo shows, what we call POT ROAST on a bun, where I grew up.
A steak...a REAL STEAK, does not get chopped up, or served on any bun unless you order a PHILLY CHEESE STEAK, where the meat is cut into smaller pieces, and never anything but Well Done.

My grandmother made it often, with boiled potatoes, her gravy, and a couple of veggies.

Do not make dinner plans, ever, with Gunny or AT.

Pffft. I'd cook it for you. I haven't seen that get turned down a whole bunch.

[Gunny]

Am I in the Twilight Zone? I mean seriously. I could could care less what anyone else ets as long as it's not disgusting and in front of me. Anyone seen the episode where they cook up some liver? I though Fieri was going to puke on camera. He had a stand in do the taste test.

And I won't eat fish. Lobster, crab or shrimp I'm good. Actual fish. Nope. Not going to happen.

I can't agree with these statements more. Normally, I would give the meat in question a good brushing of virgin olive oil, then coat with salt, pepper and garlic while the coals are heating up.

I'll move the coals over to one side of the grill and cook with indirect heat. That way I can sneak up on the doneness of the steak

It's n art form you have to master.

But let's turn it around. I can put steak on a knife and cook it over the fire pit. Y'all womens want to trash 20 dishes cooking a piece of meat. Screw all that noise. I know who gets to wash the dishes. Y'all will make a bigger mess making a bowl of soup than it's worth.

I've always cleaned up as I go. Dinner dishes the kids did, but would never let you or them by my pots and pans!

I actually gave my daughter a set of good pots and pans when she got her first apartment. A few years ago she said to me, "Mom, do you ever cook? Your stuff always looks new and mine?" Really? She was always there for dinner, often with a few friends. Maybe I should have made her watch the cleaning parts and not just the cooking? LOL!

She is a great cook, but she's rough on the cookware.

Kids nowadays. My cookware was spotless. What noticed over the years (no offense Kath ) most girls don't realize there an OUTSIDE AND HANDLE on those pots n pans.

I do the military thing. Just habit. Getting sick in the field sucks. Not to mention I'm a total germaphobe to begin with. Try THAT one always being around 2000 sloppy jarheads. I've always handwashed everything.

I totally get the clean as you go thing. I don't know any other way and I'm always calculating. What's next? Oh, I'm supposed to enjoy this meal knowing I have a million dishes to wash afterward. Same when I was an electrician. Those clowns would make a big mess with wire and conduit and not clean up. I guess they figured Mr Clean was going to miracle up their mess overnight.


And yes, I admit it ... I'm a total neat freak.
