Title: Ham steak
Post by: Den Socling on March 03, 2015, 06:54:01 PM
Patti fried for me a ham steak for dinner. She was reading a book and talking on the phone. The ham ended up charred. I told her I was going to run it through the planer to knock off the charcoal. I got the one finger solute. Was I wrong?  :D

Den,

   Another imprudent remark if I ever heard one. Dad used to get in trouble all the time talking about Mom's "Burnt Offerings". That didn't go over very well either. Men should all come with a 30 second speech delay during which time we could cancel or delete comments we have made but realize we should not have said before they can be heard.

Well, I have this problem, I like to cook but I'm not much good at it unless it's something I can spend the better share of a few hours doing, that being said I don't complain much when the Mrs. is cooking, just  :-X and eat.  She cooks way better than me anyway  ;) thank goodness!

I have learned that burnt offerings are better then going hungry and the ham would wind up in the garbage after a comment like that to my wife, so just drink lots of beer to get it down. :)

that was the nice thing about being drunk all the time I never could see good enough to see it burnt  :D :D now its a different story  ;D ;D

You need to ask yourself, do I want to be right, or do I want to be happy?
Title: Re: Ham steak

since you can't unring the bell maybe moving the smoke detector closer to the range might help.

We had pork chops last night. Perfectly cooked but with ham followed by pork I was tempted to ask if I was going to get the squeal tonight!  :D Luckily, she announced before I opened my moth that steaks were on sale. Yummy steak tonight. George Foreman hasn't ruined one yet.

Haven't tried a GF LMGM yet but do have a "set it and for forget it" rotisserie and I love it (Actually bought 3 and gave one to each of the kids). Found pork loin for $1.99 last week at local Kroger last week. Rotisseried half, wife cooked most of the rest with a pot of green lima beans with cornbread and cole slaw. Left over roast pork has gone on fried rice and sandwiches. We've eaten for most of the weak on that one cut of meat.

I doubt the farmer got a decent price for his end but that was a bargain for the meat. No waste and all good meat whether roast, cut into steaks, stew for seasoning, etc.

 German immigrants were called mockingly called Hamburgers after the city of Hamburg and the term was eventually applied to their ship board rations of ground beef.

Is that right Sawguy?  Real cool stuff.  Now tell me this, do you know why they drive on the left side of the road over there in Britain?
Title: Re: Ham steak
Post by: sawguy21 on March 07, 2015, 01:42:27 PM
That is a carry over from medieval days, they needed to have an oncoming horseman on the weapon side in case of attack. Being left handed, I would have had a problem with this. :D
Driving on the right became the norm over here, early Americans wanted to divorce themselves of anything English. it was eventually mandated by law for safety reasons.

Did you know that off the top of your head?  Mamaw,or "Lallah" as we call her, told me this awhile ago and she always tries to teach me why things are the way they are.
