=====================
Hi Jim!
-> 
->  -> I often get grossly over cooked steaks at family BBQs
-> 
->  HN> You may not believe this, but a goodly 
->  HN> majority of folks LIKE their steaks that way!
-> 
->  HN> 90% or more want it cooked to cinders....sigh!
->              
-> Yeah, I know. It's sad.
-> 
I don't look at it as sad...just the way they like it.
You and I happen to like it differently...thank goodness
they don't force us to eat it their way...and we 
don't force them to eat it "our" way.
Just like the chili wars, and chowder wars etc.

-> I have successfully weaned Roslind away from well done and gotten
-> her down to medium so far.
->  
Anne used to like her ground beef raw.
Over the years she's switched to medium...
I used to like my ground beef well done..
now I'm at medium to medium rare (grin)

-> We had a particularly nice BBQ earlier tonight. As we had had a lot
-> of steak the past three weekends, for a change of pace I got some
-> bone-in centre loin pork chops cut an inch thick at the local
-> independent meat market. I took over the grill and gave them five
-> minutes a side, frequently brushing them with vegetable oil to keep
-> them moist, so they came out medium, with just a touch of pink and
-> still juicy. I had a bit of a time convincing some of my relatives
-> that it was safe to eat but by the end of the meal everyone admitted
-> it was the best pork they had had in a long time. Sides were corn on
-> the cob (first of the season up here, not local but at least it was
-> Canadian and fairly fresh), potato salad and my step-daughter's
-> signature salad of avocado, mango, strawberries, red peppers, mild
-> onions and spinach.
->
MMMmmMMM Pork is my favorite vegetable too! Avacado and 
Strawberries...I'll have to try that combo! Mango and 
strawberries are goood!
 
-> And a new to me wine: Niersteiner Gutes Domtal (Qualiatswein mit
-> Pradikat Kabinett) bottled by St Ursula. A dry German wine in the
-> modern style. Quite nice and it went well with the meal. 
->
New to me as well! Anne favors sweeter reislings.
       
-> Another horrible thing to do to a good steak....

I dunno, looked nicely tasty to me...but I may have
subbed the steak with a cheaper cut.
chat with you soon!
