What is this thread all about?
Just a place for general discussion. A place to unload whats on your mind and talk about anything - personal, health, help needed, achievements, daily highs and daily lows, theories, predictions and what have you.
Does not need to be Q related.
None. TMAO is death for men, all research from every single source shows the same evidence. My health has improved ten fold since cutting out beef. I eat 8 oz chicken and 4 oz turkey per day, plus salmon up to twice a week.
However, when I did eat beef, my favorite ways are all what would be considered well done. Barbacoa, brisket, fajitas, gyudon, and pot roast. They are still tender like more rare cuts but all the flavor and stomach ease of well done.
I like well done too, it is not a crime. If you like char and texture it is the way to go, plus it will never make you sick. Plenty of people have sensitive stomachs and can't digest rare well. Plus the extra cooking really brings out spices and seasonings. Carne asada is divine and that is well done.
I've always found heat works the best.
But that's just me...
Wait one hour so it reaches room temperature.
Butter it on both sides, salt and pepper it to taste. Wait a moment until the salt as melted and osmotically entered the meat
Make it get that golden color by paning it on a strong fire, then let it cook some time on a much milder fire.
My mom gets Cooks and they had a great method for frozen steak. "Screaming hot" pan and season after the sear. We've done the steakhouse butters and the salt-and-things crusts too.
But, fundamentally, South Americans do marinades and rubs for meat, so if you've ever been to an Argentinian or Brazilian steakhouse, that's more our style.
Stay outta my refrigerator.
This recipe is excellent and easy. Iron skillet, butter, 2 min per side, then in the oven it goes. Lots of salt on each side 1st. And black pepper.

On the grill - after a good marinade
Put ice cubes on the steak, and it will not dry out and cook more evenly
At the very end, if you’d like it, crispy on the edges, put butter on it and let it melt and burn off to the edges. It’s delicious.
I like my steaks, well done, and my husband was a chef, and he taught me how to do it to make it delicious.
The only thing besides religion, and politics that I’ve heard people denigrate me over is having my steak. Well done. L O L.
They just don't know how to make it will done and juicy at the same time. Don't let their ignorance disrupt your enjoyment of fine beef.
Thanks! And you couldn’t be any closer to the truth. People don’t know how to make juicy steaks well done, they just don’t know. Thankfully, my husband was a chef, and I learned from him. God bless and have a great night.
Steak tartare.
Or the other end of the spectrum, flambéed Steak Diane. With flambéed Bananas Foster for dessert. This one is mostly favoured by pyromaniacs. Or Def Leppard fans.
Won't you get parasites?
I've never had it. But it would be the easiest way to prepare steak, since it's raw. Parasite Lives Matter 🐛
Smoked, pink through to center, w/ a good sear on both sides.
Probably on the grill or in a cast iron skillet.
Seasoned with a little salt and pepper or whatever seasoning you like, cooked well done with butter.
