    Dearest brethren,

    On my travels I came across this, I know it is frowned upon to do your own cooking. However, imagine grabbing a nice big steak and just popping it in the toaster? That surely cannot count, and if it does, well makes it easier on the wimmins.

    Now, behold the future in laziness, I give you the steak toaster!

    I don't like the idea of this one bit tbh.

    A decent steak has to be done in a frying pan imo. A searing hot one.

    None of this toasting business for me.

    Sure that's only a step away from a george formby thingy.

    you'd lose all the meaty juices :eek:

    That would be one crap steak!

    Pah. You take a steak, you show one side of it the pan, then you show the other side of it to the pan, then you put it on a plate and eat it. Toasting steaks, blasphemy!

    QFT.

    When I'm finished my steak I like the remnants on the plate to be purple. After the blood has mixed with the Gravy or Pepper sauce.

    I like to be able to converse in moos to my steak.

    seemingly theres a tray that catches the meaty juices, its not really a toaster, official name is "Ariete SteakHouse Indoor Grill". Well seems like its not a hit with you guys.

    Could be handy to have in a small office canteen or that where you don't have means for frying. Steak for every meal now becomes a reality!!!

    It's all about the circumstances. Think of it like a portable tv. You wouldn't use one if you had a big assed flatsceen, but it'd be handy for bringing into the jax! (not the steak toaster the portable tv, although.............)

    I have to say using a george foreman is my second favorite way of cooking steak.

    yes frying it is best. but it that isn't an option a george foreman is pretty good. just oil the steak, get the george foreman thingy as hot as possible (cause both sides of it are hot it cooks both sides evenly) place steak on it close lid. Get nervous cause you think it is goign to go horribly wrong as you don't trust the george foreman and then take off when cook to requirements.
    That said I have a pan and gas and don't have a gorge forman things as they are the ghey so frying FTW

    3rd on my list is getting a wimmins to cook it. I don't know steak is like BBQ you just can't trust wimmins to do it justice

    Oi ya bollix!!!! BBQ is easy, as long as you make sure it's cooked right, and keep H&S (hate that bloody stuff, but it's important) in mind.

    It's normal cooking I can't (won't, until now that I have to) do.

    I'm kinda afraid of BBQs. Never really know if the meat is cooked fully

    Steak on a bbq is easy just seal it. It gets dangerous with meats like sausage and burgers where the inside has been exposed to the air and so need to be cooked through. Still though, if the coals are nice and grey with no flames, once the outside is blackened with carcenogenic goodness the inside should be done (unless the burgers are fat)
    BBQ banana meant to be nice to. (wrap in tinfoil and cook for a few minutes)

    I got snowed into Dunedin in the June I was there. Is there a town with less to do in the whole world? I doubt it.

    I fail to see a problem with this.............

    Romps ftw, then a few toasted steaks afterwards!! You see how handy they could be. Instead of a lamp plugged in beside the bed have a steak toaster!! Plates in the locker if you really want them and bingo, no need to leave the bed!! (a mini fridge for the meat prior to cooking could also be handy)

    ye need the mini fridge for the beer too, and whipped cream.

    thank god it's lunchtime, getting carried away now :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,172 ✭✭✭Don1


    Not whipped cream, cream in a can. easier to apply and lasts longer in the fridge with it's UHTness, although with two wimmins requiring spray on cream bikinis I don't think it lasting would be an issue!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,009 ✭✭✭✭Run_to_da_hills


    A 24 Hour Mc Donalds did a home delivery service would be a better option, at least you wouldnt have to wash up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,172 ✭✭✭Don1


    Steak toaster and disposable chopsticks/cutlery/corn on the cob spike things? Still no wash up and no need to resort to McDonalds.


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 13,425 ✭✭✭✭Ginny


    i is tired so not reading back over the whole thread buuttttt if you want your steak done like the restaurants the trick is either fry it or grill it and for the last few minutes bake it in a hot oven in some foil.
    Although I like it still mooing...:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,212 ✭✭✭✭Tom Dunne


    Personally, I prefer to dispense with this whole cooking lark, a mere gentle heating of said steak does me.

    Steak Toaster = George Forman

    That's all.

    One of the best steaks I've eaten in my life was just fired into a large wood fire with a metal grille twixt two blazing logs, lifted out 2 mins later and eaten out of my hands.
