What Did You Have For Dinner Last Night?

sear the heck out of it in my cast iron skillet (I start on the stove, then move to the oven). It's delicious.

This is how I cook my steaks -- let them come up to room temperature, pat them dry, coat them in salt and pepper, and then toss them on my skillet (which, at this point, has gotten hotter than the surface of the sun on my stovetop). I sear them for 45 seconds on each side to get a crust, smoking out my entire apartment in the process, then put them in a 450-degree oven for about 90 seconds per side (longer for my wife's, since she isn't a fan of medium-rare meat).

It comes out like meat candy. I haven't grilled a steak in years.

Oh I love my cast iron skillet. :techman: That's pretty much exactly what I do with my steak (down to the times per side!). I have a secret recipe for steak seasoning involving a combination of four commercially available preparations. I still eat steak out from time to time but it's rarely as good as when I make it at home.

Whilst reading this post and the whole raw meat part, your avatar suited you so well. :guffaw:
 
We went to a "Mongolian" restaurant with friends. It's really just a stir-fry place for Americans. But it was fun and the food was pretty good.
 
Last night was just whatever we could scrounge (my wife had some leftover pizza from a friend's house, I just made macaroni and cheese), but tonight will be amazing: Chuck roast from an amazing butcher, slow-cooked with sliced Russet potatoes and fresh onions and garlic from the farmers' market, plus boiled sweet corn (also from market). I got my cast iron up to about 650 degrees so I could get a great crust on the meat by searing it before dropping it into the crock pot.

Gonna be awesome.

Salad with cherry tomatoes, black olives, cucumber, thinly sliced parmesan, shredded basil, sprinkling of oregano, drizzle of olive oil, dash of thick and sweet balsamic vinegar. Very filling actually.

I want to eat dinner at Timby's house. :drool:

That looks and sounds yummy :drool:

I went to this church new comer's meeting and they served us a ceasar salad, chicken marsala over egg noodles and a piece of garlic bread. It was delicious!
