All depends how well (or to be more precise how rare) its cooked.. If its a well done steak you want you might as well not bother getting a good cut cos incinerating it fooks it anyway!

It is true though....a slow Roasted Joint....is much more juicy/succelent* than a huge steak in a Griddle Frying Pan....the taste is superior....and you can make Gravy with the Juices/Sweat!!!! :coool:

*FECK-OFF- SPELLING!!!! :roll:

How rare do you like your lamb cooked Mr Bilog ..they reckon it should be pink even though I've not really tasted any cooked like that.

The rarest steak I ever had was in Holland by time I finished it the plate was awash with a red sauce even though I'd never put any on..Ever since that day my taste for rare steak has never abated much to the disgust of the boss...

Lamb is my Favourite Meat....after Gnu nad anything Mr.Compo drops off in his Haversack!!!! :coool:

Nah....really....Lamb....but have you seen the kunting price of it????

I got told by a Butcher Yesterday....Britain has stopped....Ughh....Butchering Lambs....cos of the price!!!! confised

The only Lamb you'll get now is New Zealand....from a Supermarket!!!! confised

The 'Local' Butcher won't even buy British Lamb to sell....Too Expensive!!!! confised

And we wonder why the Local Shops are going!!!! :evil:

Not too keen on fillet steak which is supposed to be about the best cut isn't it? Prefer Rib Eye medium rare.... I only ever have it when I'm working away and the company pays for it mind. It's way too expensive, normally at last a tenner for steak and chips usually more so I guess Mr Mutley is right - It is over rated....

it's nice but not realy worth the price. i think over cooking steak is an old fashioned Brittish thing, most people who have steak well done tend to be over 60.....

My Mam's 66 years old and I think the closest she's got to Steak is 'Shin Beef'!!!! :coool:

Which BTW....Is Much Much Better than 'Steak'!!!! :coool:

Mam's know best about cooking Meat....and everything else!!!! :coool:

Personally I like it a little pink, but the other half usually will put it in for a little longer if she thinks it's underdone. :roll:

Never been a steak fan and I love all meats generally. I think it's flavourless. confised

much rather have belly pork or lamb/pork chops, when i went to S.Africa the meat they eat is unreal and they done me this desperate dan sized steak on the bbq how they eat it. They just chucked it on for about 20 seconds each side and that was it, it was just like jelly there was no way i was eating that and they didnt have any Daddies :shock:

You lot are radged!

Ever tried Argentinean steak? Theres a certain difference to it that you can't put your finger on but its good, damn good. Must be all that free range on the pampas stuff.

steaks generaly more solid meat which means no fat and fat means flavour!!

Cheap steak is shite.

I got a big fk-off T-bone from the butcher's in the Indoor Market on Friday, obviously cooked to perfection and absolutely lush.

If you want to appreciate good meat be prepared to pay a decent price for it and don't buy the cheap cuts (or supermarket bollox) masquerading as proper meat.

Compo · **Posted:** Tue Dec 22, 2009 11:45 am

I said is over-rated in restarantes but if you buy a good cut yourself its great. Went I am out I have my steak rare but if I am doing it myself and season it right like it blue

WestParkPoolie · **Posted:** Tue Dec 22, 2009 2:02 pm

Went to the States a few months ago, and had a 14oz steak. Cooked medium-rare and was the best steak I've ever tasted. When cooked well, it's fantastic.

PoolieBarnes · **Posted:** Tue Dec 22, 2009 4:51 pm

Nail on the head there Mr.Ripper. Cheap Steak isn't worth having.

Also concurring with WPP, some of the best Steaks I've ever had have been in the United States, when I'm there it's usually one a day for me!! :laugh:

Be careful out there........regular consumption of red meat is linked with bowel cancer.
