    Anybody eat Miracle Whip? My god, I love that stuff. Use it as a dip with cheese and onion hunky dorys......droolfest.

    Houmous! Must can't get enough of the stuff.

    I made some yummy honey and seeded mustard pork chops yesterday.

    for breakfast I had a steak sandwich.

    what you need:

    mustard
    soy sauce
    pepper
    tabasco
    honey
    wasabi
    maple syrup

    mix together in a bowl to taste, marinad the steak for a while, throw in frying pan, cook how you like I cook it rare, then throw it all chopped up into a slice of grinder bread with a mayo/mustard sauce.

    win

    Sounds pretty spicy, though you do balance that nicely with honey and maple syrup. I do a similar sauce myself but I don't have any wasabi :(

    I think I'll go for steak tonight!

    Guys, two questions...

    1. Do we have an Irish equivalent to the Angus quality seal? I know you can get Angus cows from Ireland, but I'm just wondering.

    2. Someone give me a grading of the best steak cuts, top 5 perhaps. Your own opinion of course, I know there's massive debate in the food forums over this, but I'm just curious from the Nocs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,814 ✭✭✭BaconZombie


    Angus is a bread of cow not a quality seal as such....
    The cuts of meat all have their own special taste and qualities.
    But you have to prepare and cook they right for each cut.

    Yea each breed has it's flaws. I'd look at the farmer rather than the breed, however Irish Angus beef apparently is only supplied to Tesco Ireland so if it's a good steak cut you got I'd stick with them. May go to them for my steak in future:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,746 ✭✭✭✭FewFew


    Yeah it was actually delicious, and it was a sirloin rather than a fillet... so I'm terrified at how tasty the fillet might be!

    Apart from being from the Angus breed, they also have to have the following to get the cert...
    • Modest or higher degree of marbling
    • Medium or fine marbling texture
    • "A" maturity
    • 10 to 16 square-inch ribeye area
    • Less than 1,000-pound hot carcass weight
    • Less than 1-inch fat thickness
    • Moderately thick or thicker muscling
    • No hump on the neck exceeding 5 cm (2")
    • Practically free of capillary rupture
    • No dark cutting characteristics

    Screw Angus and treat yourself to a Kobe beef cut from the Wagyu cattle, it's expensive but worth every mouth watering delicious penny.

    I'd be afraid of cooking it wrong. I'm practicing on the Angus :)

    I made a JD bbq sauce yoke. Twas yum.

    Just cooked BBQ pork chops with homemade wedges and roast peppers for dinner. It was so delicious. I am declaring my BBQ sauce an unbridled success. Nyom. :)

    It's ok guys, I found the long lost "This is what I'm eating, nyom" thread!

    Ok, I'm currently eating an orange choc chip cookie from the Government Press Centre. They are my greatest nyom addiction at the mo.

    It's been a long time since my last McDonalds. I'd probably slaughter a village if I caught sight of a double cheesebuygah at the other end.

    Ah Fewcifer, putting the 'laughter' back in 'involuntary manslaughter due to reasons of insanity brought on by a hunger driven love of cheeseburgers'.

    Ah now, a quarter pounder without cheese is always good.

    We can all agree on Eddie Rockets though, right?

    Finally cooking something random again:

    XUBB5.jpg

    The base is tortillas, then red peppers, chicken with sticky bbq sauce & nando's extra hot, then silver onions and topped with loads of cheese....

    I'll let you know if is good or epic....
    And yes I'm cooking for just myself, but hopefully it will do for a few lunches as well....

    It looks good:) I need to go to the store but I'm too lazy to go out in this heat, so threw together some tri color pasta and and crab meat, sort of bland so made a sauce of mayo, sour cream ans some powdered stuff I got at the Amish. Not enough so I chopped up some olives and sweet basil and what was left of the taco cheese- It was actually pretty good. I thgink some of the best things come out of not having anything:p
