I prefer one that has some serious texture, but I have to be careful what wiht the surgery. So tender helps me digest better. But: other than gristle, the tenderest a piece of meat is, is when it is raw. <\/p>\n<p>No, I&#8217;m not suggesting you go out and eat raw meat. In fact, it&#8217;s a pretty good way to get some nasty intestinal parasites, if you&#8217;re not careful.<\/p>\n<p>But I have a butcher I trust. And he&#8217;s good. SO once in a while I stop by and he gets me nice big rib-eyes, or filets. Depending on the source, they&#8217;re pretty good. So I stop by the butcher shop- this is, six, eight years ago, now, and get myself a hunk of real prime. <\/p>\n<p>And damned near got myself arrested.<\/p>\n<p>See, I was hungry. ANd when it came right down to it, I wasn&#8217;t going to cook this thing a whole lot, and I figured, if I&#8217;m barely going to introduce this meat to the flame, why bother at all? SO I&#8217;m in the parking lot next to Jewel, chowing down, and a cop pulls up.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sir, you wantto step out oif the car?&#8221;<br \/>\nSo I get out, still holding my lunch.<br \/>\n&#8220;You want to drop that meat?&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;I&#8217;ll put it down on this plastic. I just paid eight bucks for it&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Apparently there had been some complaint by someone who saw me gnawing on a three pound hunk of raw beef in the car, and he felt as if it had to come to an end. After some discussion I agreed to leave and eat my lunch away from prying eyes, and wipe the blood off my shirt and face. <\/p>\n<p>People are such busybodies. I mean if a guy wants to chew on a big hunk of raw meat, what&#8217;s the problem? <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Steve is talking food again. Now, I loves me a good steak.
