To be fair Jaime... if you have to eat it overdone then there's no point in that anyway...like eating rubber. or card  ::)

Has to be rare. End of  :y

Eating it dead does mean you need a much, much better quality steak in order to keep it tender and tasty.  Thats why all these poxy pubs trying to make out they are proper restuarants cook them medium rare (no matter what you ask for), as the steak they use is shite

If you're only allowed to eat it once in a blue moon, then it must be getting pretty rare anyways ::)

Mocking aside, the trick is getting the skillet (if thin cuts) or griddle (for anything 1/2" or thicker) hot enough to actually sear the surface just long enough to seal the surface and warm it through, all in about 30 seconds a side... needs to also be hot enough that the chosen cheese melts over it if you're that way inclined 8)

I kinda agree, but we are miles ahead of the cheese eating surrender monkeys. You need a chainsaw for their finest steak.

There's an independent butcher near where I live in Wales, and his steak whatever cut, is always fantastic. However . . . . . it realy is not cheap  :(  SWMBO has a significant birthday this weekend and kids are coming to stay, Seriously considering a whole fillet, pan seared whole, then oven for a few minutes, sliced and served with green pepper cream sauce !  All invitied . . . . . . . . . NO, just kidding  :o

Funny that, I was talking to the missus about dusting of the slow cooker this weekend ;)

2 or 3 packets of finest beef mince
2 or 3 packets of stewing steak
4 beef Oxo cubes
A splash of gravy powder to thicken it up a little
Lots of fresh kidney and liver
A couple of nice onions chopped up and chucked in for luck
All from LIDL of course

Switch the slow cooker on HIGH for about 3 hours to get the juices flowing and give it a good stir then down to LOW for a few more hours then let it cool over night.
Back on LOW a few hours before you eat  :-* :)

Serve with Mash spuds, roast spuds, Yorkshire puddings and fresh veg  :-* :-*

................ and a nice bottle of wine  :)
