Thread: Dinner

Have to agree with betty, when rested it should not be that rare for me. Beef I could do, but lamb I prefer medium to medium well. Nice rack though. Where did you get it?

I pity you BB -

Agreeing with Betty on anything (but food specifically) is a worry AO, have you seen his *attempts* at cooking a simple fucking egg???! . The lamb in his plagiarized pics is WAY overdone IMO. I wouldn't normally eat beef that rare, as you would, but really like extra rare lamb once in a while. It came out exactly the way I wanted.

Bought it from a butchery in Pattaya that only deals with high-end Australian beef and lamb. It was fresh (never frozen) which only added to my not wanting to cook it much past red, that was one quality piece of meat.

I don't mind it cremated, but medium is fine too - lamb, for me, should be medium, can be pink, but no blood.

Does look like a very nice piece of meat. I am getting a hankering for lamb now.

I agree totally... lamb that rare will be cold in the middle.... another 5 minutes and the same time resting as cooking and you will have perfectly rare lamb as opposed to uncooked lamb.

Another 5 min for me to champ.
And while I generally believe everything honest merchants tell me, I doubt that Oz lamb gets here non frozen at some point.....

HW its simply a preference. For me the taste is much deeper and richer with a medium to medium well piece of lamb. I am sure its the way I was brought up as both mom and dad loved lamb.

I started to cringe when I began seeing rare lamb on cooking shows. But fair enough to each his own. I would have a gravy or sorts or some kind of a mint sauce as well.

^ Kiwi aftershave = mint sauce AO. As seen on the left side of the plate in the, errr, sauce bowl . Doing a super basic breaded chicken and chips with gravy tomorrow, it'll be cooked to well done and with a gravy which should keep the gallery off my arse. Well until they see frozen crinkle cut chips being used of course . It's all good.

knocked this little burger up tonight. sorry about the pics of assembling it but couldn't be arsed as i was very excited about eating it, and besides i think we all know how to make a burger. anyway it was the bollox, as i my usual diet consists of laab, nam tok somtam, soup nom mai etc.... the missus was even impressed when i plonked this down on the table ( burger that is)

Looks as if you are a bit short on the burger....

^^ That's art that is......

^^ are you blind? maybe a bit too much cheese though

^^
i thinks so too. and i'm still wobbling around a bit after eating it, a bit like a weeble

Barrylad, I'd green you but...


Fookin Cheers is for queers!

^
no chang in the shop, leo or cheers . cheers won

Rump, chips, coleslaw, potatoe salad and BBQ sauce. Zero effort, nice result.

^ it's not zero effort... The meat looks nicely cooked.
(can't believe you peppered the tomato sauce...)

Yeah, but Cheers Xtra in the red can is for REAL men...

^ Not a full sear on the steak.

Check out the fat and the pink tinge on the bottom right on the photo.

Still looks bloody nice though.

Would pay around 800 baht for a plate of that in Bangkok.

Nice work Headworx.

A medium rare green sent.

A bit of pink on beef is alright, bet that was bloody tasty (should've seen his raw lamb effort... ).

You wouldn't pepper the tomato ketchup though, would you? Gotta be delicate with the seasoning...

Sorry, I don't know this advanced culinary terms, I'm still in the process of learning how to fry an egg properly...

I'm gonna have a nice big steak tomorrow night now!

Green sent Headworx. Do I detect a smidgin' of coleslaw on that plate?



Red can cheers...For real queers!

I would have gone wih mushrooms, caramelised onions and HP not tommy k. not a bad effort though.
