I like mine still Mooing. It is very difficult to cook good rare steak but I am getting there.
I really was as tough as old boots. For some reason, he believes the longer meat is cooked, the more tender it is. Didn't let it rest long enough either.

I thought so @Beck S not sure if my BG thought the same lol. Notice no Oppo though, so jealous, or Cumberland sausage naked or dressed and no fried bread. So Jealous.

We'd got the sausages when we went shopping Tuesday - they were new and the carb content was nice and low. Hadn't thought about what would go with them and it was originally just going to be veg, but housemate declared she wanted egg and fried bread. I was not about to argue!!
I like some of the basic chinese dishes, the more chicken and sauce type things, but that'a about it. I don't know how I'd fare with actual food in China!

I generally prefer steak dragged through a warm kitchen (though with the fat properly rendered first).
However, I did once have a go at the Heston Blumenthal steak recipe which involved blowtorching the outside, then cooking at 50C (from memory, though won't be far away) for 24 hours. It did make a super steak, though I wasn't convinced it was better than normal. It wasn't however a lot of bother, just took a long time.
