Yum, just finished my prime rib - that hit the spot after all the carnivore talk. Late Lunch due to meetings during lunch - had to get something substantive.

Thanks Gus, I would never have thought of milk! I'll try and let you know the results.My steak recipe is the shortest ever:
* volcano hot grill
* raw steak
* max 20 second per side
Serve with salt, pepper and a drop of tuscan olive oil.
The chef suggests a glass of red wine, possibly "Sagrantino di Montefalco".
...Uhmmm... I'm getting hungry.:-)
Here's the way I used to order steak...
Waitress: ... and how would you like the steak done?
Me: Black'n'Blue
Waitress: Pardon me?
Me: Not to worry... just tell the cook to chase it out here and I'll cut a piece off as it runs by. 😛

RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.

I'm not much of a steak fan (or beef in general much), but I think I'll be trying out the steak recipe soon.

And Steak Talk takes us to 9400 posts on The Thread!Yeah, who'd have thought The Thread was an epicurean carnivore? I always thought it was more oriented towards the conquest and/or destruction of the human race.
Of course, Soylent Green is people ....
So, logical conclusion, lactose intolerant people are not as tasty as others...

Is that all you ate? I notice no side dishes on that plate?

You don't need anything else if it is a good steak!

No, of course! That was the plate where I put the steaks before serving. I had roasted potatoes and something else I don't remember. Anyway when I have steak I try to concentrate on the steak itself and limit side dishes.

I had a nice thick ribeye Saturday night as part of the victory celebration when Ole Miss beat LSU. 😀
I also saw the movie "The Blind Side" this weekend and can recommend it as a "feel good" movie. Sandra Bullock was hilarious.
I will answer the question in advance:
Yes, many Southern women really ARE like that. I'm married to one.

I had a decent rib eye at a steak house in Gettysburg on Friday after a 10+ mile hike with the Scouts covering about 2/3 of the Union lines and the same on the Reb side of the field. Unfortunately I couldn't have the second of the two food groups, beer.
