Why don't you guys just toss it all in a blender, set on frappe, pour in a glass. Saves on washing plates and utensils and you can sit on the couch and watch TV sipping a hot meal. I look forward to the money shots.

Oh yeah, don't forget your Budweiser.

Would we have to watch American sports?

Believe me, I'd have a Mendip steak and kidney pie with a day of proper football and a few beers in the pub over one of your dry steaks and NFL any day of the week!

The steaks of his I see are properly cooked by my eyes, far from dry. A steak is not meant to be drowned in gravy. As far as sports, we have the best in the world. NFL playoffs this weekend and my Seahawks will be there.

Once I have picked myself up the floor, we can talk about steak.

From a guy who watches a bunch of pansies kick a ball around.

How you can contend that any sport has more 'pansies' than those fat clowns in panty hose, who play for about two minutes in every hour, is bemusing.

I was one of those, if you tried to get on the gridiron you would be leaving on a stretcher. Stick to kicking that ridiculous little ball around.

Ohh I believe you Hal. I can't argue that you prefer food substance on a plate smothered in some sauce watching a bunch of pooves run around kicking a ball for fun. . We grew up with what we like to eat, played the sports we knew and enjoyed. You know my Mom used to try and cover up cheap cuts of meat or liver or whatever in sauces hoping we wouldn't notice but it didn't work and we wouldn't eat it.

As for steaks. Just stop. You have no clue on a properly cooked cut of beef. Each section of cow has to be cooked a certain way to achieve the best taste and tenderness. To take a Ribeye or a Filet /Tenderloin and cook it to well done, cover it with some cheap powdered boxed gravy mix sauce to hide it is simply criminal. So I suggest you stick with Kidney pies, paper thin sirloins and what other sides you enjoy and leave the proper steaking cooking to the professionals..

What I do not understand is why you Brits are so passionate about a sport that you lot are utter shit at.



When was the last time you won the world cup?

Nonsense Hal.





Beef Tenderloin. 2" thick, Range fed. Light salt, course ground pepper, rosemary and thyme seasoned



On the grill.



Resting ( Notice the Au Jus Hal) no need for 2 1/2 cups of boxed gravy mix. Just natural flavorings



Wonderful dinner cooked to perfection. Tater with homemade Mushroom gravy, Italian spiced carrots and a medium rare beef tenderloin.

Hmmm. Lemme think about that. My dinner versus animal guts, cooked in a pastry tossed on a plate and covered with a sodium loaded gravy mix so everything floats.....

Just saying......

Green sent, but I still can't get my head around no sauce with it.

What about a chimichurri on the side at least?

It does not need it. Stumps buys top quality cuts and cooks them just to the right temp. After a nice rest, that steak was loaded with tasty juices.

I've said before that it would be too difficult for our British teeth to handle without sauce. Same still stands.

No way! A good steak is so tender you could chew it with your dentures.

Fair play. An admission.

green owed but you probably wouldn’t be able to chew it

We brought the leftovers home that I ate tonight.

I see Hals drunken weekend shit posts have been cleaned up.

Nothing has been deleted apart from one on Skiddy's thread, a thread which got deleted, as far as I'm aware. They're all still standing on here.

This weekend has mostly been spent celebrating on the football threads and talking about curry for breakfast elsewhere.

And a bit of fun on the NFL thread too, of course.
