Hedghog Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Happy Birthday But I don't know about the "ripe" old I think there's a few of us on here who might lay claim to that (my youngest is older then you, she would kill me if I say by how much) but have a good day. 1

Rawns Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 (edited) Happy birthday dude. Pieces FTW. 1st March here. Spent the morning at a playgroup in my local library with my daughter. This afternoon my mum is having her and I am gonna be doing a bit of housework then going on the xbox. This evening I have the sister in law coming over and having a mini party. And where does obscene amounts of cake fit into the schedule? Edited February 21, 2013 by Rawns 1
featured_spectre Posted February 21, 2013 Author Posted February 21, 2013 Obscene amounts of cake do not fit in...obscene amounts of proteinacious goodness (by way of the sis in law getting me a monster 32oz steak!)
Rawns Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Obscene amounts of cake do not fit in...obscene amounts of proteinacious goodness (by way of the sis in law getting me a monster 32oz steak!) I deamand a picture of that rude boy!!!

Rawns Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 (edited) Hope your going the whole hog? I would expect, nay, demand: Chips. Onion Rings. Corn on the cob. Coleslaw. Salad bowl. Peppercorn Sauce. Onion Sprinkles. Maybe I'd go as far as making it surf 'n' turf with a side of Scampy or Sweet Chilli king prawns!!! /drool Edited February 21, 2013 by Rawns
DT2 Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Obscene amounts of cake do not fit in...obscene amounts of proteinacious goodness (by way of the sis in law getting me a monster 32oz steak!) Horse steak?
featured_spectre Posted February 21, 2013 Author Posted February 21, 2013 No...beef steak, from my local butcher (she is getting it at half price for my birthday present from them).
Rawns Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 (edited) No...beef steak, from my local butcher (she is getting it at half price for my birthday present from them). Do you know what cut of beef it will be? While you wont have time to complete the whole process as your having it tonight, I would HIGHLY recommend preparing and cooking future steaks using the Heston method. http://www.channel4.com/4food/recipes/chefs/heston-blumenthal/hestons-perfect-steak It basically involves air drying it in a fridge for 48 hours, then letting it come up to room temperature. Get the pan ultra hot and then drop it in the pan. After 15-20 seconds, turn it. Repeat this for about 3 minutes for a rare steak (3 mins 30 - 4 mins for rare/medium). It really comes out beautifully! "By flipping the meat every 15–20 seconds, the steak will develop a crisp flavoursome exterior without being overcooked in the centre."

featured_spectre Posted February 21, 2013 Author Posted February 21, 2013 She said it is actually 26oz Rump (my fave cut after hangar steak, but thats more expensive than sirloin) as they couldn't accurately cut one to be 32oz, but hey, not complaining! I blowtorch it on the outside then griddle it for 30 seconds each side on a screaming hot griddle. I like mine blue-rare.
