the carlow steak apprication thread

For a nice fillet steak, I let it go brown first, (about 2 weeks after best before date!) then leave it to come to room temperature, sprinkle a bit of sea salt & crushed pepper and cook 1min high on both sides 3 min low each side. (rare).

You won't find a more tender piece of meat anywhere!

p.s. sometimes you'll find tesco selling off prepack fillet / sirloin for 1/2 price because its on the BB date. - With good red meat, this is when its only starting to be good.
