    Steak Rossini, the pate adds an extra dimension...

    Fillet of steak, chips, mushrooms, and fried onion. Gotta have the pepper sauce for the steak too. Yum yum.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    got to be the sirlion, medium to well, chips, peas, deep fried onion rings, pepper sauce

    although did have a very tasty garlic steak sambo earlier, done the whole thing on the bbq, something very caveman about cooking in the outdoors

    :D

    large T`Bone fried onions and mushrooms with a splash of english mustard cant beat it all washed down with a cold one :D

    A nice bloody medium rare sirloin with chips and onion rings for me please. Fillet's nice, but you could slice it with a butter knife. Sirloin's bit of extra toughness just feels more manly. Now excuse me while I go out and hunt some cows. :D

    Unless you want them cremated (anything from medium upwards in my book) it shouldn't take ages to cook them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,165 ✭✭✭✭brianthebard


    well thats because you equate medium with cremated. :p i like them brown/cooked through,and generally cook them on a low heat.


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47,411 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    I once sent back a medium done steak in a restaurant because it was overdone as far as I was concerned. :)

    Very high heat, sear the outside, flip over after a couple of minutes to do the other side and Bob's your uncle. I don't have the patience for this low heat lark when there's red meat waiting to be consumed. :D

    Always been a fan of sirloin. Has a great taste to it and if done medium is terrific. Great cooking tips from Zaph there by the way.

    Has to be a fillet fried at a very high temperature for about 1 minute each side... about 4 on a plate with thin chips and fried onions... mmmmm


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,243 ✭✭✭truecrippler


    I'd actually love to tuck into a steak meal now. Soooo hungry.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,719 ✭✭✭Ruaidhri


    Nothing like a good Irish sirloin steak.. mmmmmm.

    I'd settle for an Argentinian at a pinch, but it *has* to be rare, tender enough to cut with your fork and juicy as hell.

    Brothers, and I get an hallelujah for steak!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,601 ✭✭✭ShayK1


    Hallelujah!!!

    Med - Rare Sirloin with pepper sauce. JOB!

    Although this deer steak was pretty damn tasty!!

    Good to see her time in TLL isn't being wasted. Now if only she could do rasher sambos :D

    Cajun fillet steak - medium rare. Can't go wrong.


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


    This one does it for me. Medium rare 14oz sirloin.

    Sirloin ~FTW. Medium done, fry it in garlic oil and a sprinkling of garlic salt. Just before its done throw in a shot of JD and some red wine and let it reduce. Make up the pepper sauce and pour a little of the pan juice into it. Boo-ya!

    Fillet or T-bone, medium rare with loooads of chips and mushrooms... I really want steak now. *ponders wimpy sandwich gloomily*


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,863 ✭✭✭✭The Hill Billy


    Sirloin (medium) served with thick slices of raw onion, juices from the pan & a couple of slices of Old Mr Brennan's white sliced to mop up the juices.

    ahhhh the only way to eat steak


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,562 ✭✭✭cance


    Rib is too ribbony and fatty, round is too tough and sirloin can be hit and miss depending on the cut.

    if you are looking for steak excellence go with an inch think rare or medium rare Tbone...

    meat off the bone is tastier, manlier and you have the benefit of both fillet and striploin in the same cut. Flash brown both sides then turn the heat right down and cook further for 2 minutes each side.... melt in the mouth stuff. Pepper sauce or garlic butter optional...

    having worked as a butcher for a few years i tried it all but kept going back for the tbone excellence.

    I'm sure Zaphette is safe enough in his brotherness to stop at cooking tips and not actually put them into practice :cool:

    God no, as with how to operate the hoover or wash the dishes, I'm merely familiar with the theory rather than the execution.

    Brothers, inspired by this thread, I instructed mrs trout to purchase some steak in advance of my return from work.

    Given the moderately fine evening we were blessed with, I hoiked out the barbeque for the first time since, well, yesterday.

    As an experiment I barbequed a t-bone.

    I am happy to report, the experiment was a success.

    On a related note, trout junior was seen to take the bone and gnaw on it, extracting the last morsels of meaty goodness while I was distracted by my beer.

    He is only two, but he has made an old fat baldy man very happy.

    Dass-mah-boi :cool:

    angus fillet with garlic butter, garlic mushrooms, and garlic potatoes.

    if they made garlic ice cream, that would do for dessert.

    angus & garlic ... mmmm-mmmmmm :)
