I cooked my steaks the manly way on a grill in the cold with the light failing. But I did have asparagus and salad with it, so not as Argh I guess. ---

Tonight I heated up a cast-iron frying pan in the oven, added some olive oil, and then two wild-caught salmon filets seasoned with kosher salt and dill. Yum. The cats liked it too. ---

In fact, she was a big, BIG fan of beef. Her famous justification was, ā€œI grew up near the stockyards. Itā€™s a steer. Just stun it, slice it, slap it on a platter, and serve it!ā€ ---

My most recent steak purchase was a package of prime ribeyes from Costco. We had one of them pan-broiled medium-rare with English-style roast potatoes. It was delectably juicy and red, but damn Costco cuts their steaks huge. One steak was too much for two people, and going forward, I think one steak with make four servings rather than two. But Iā€™m a definite red meat fan and cooking a steak anything past medium-rare is a crime.
