What ya eatin?

I'm going to have to give those Trader Joe's Black Bean patties a try.

Don't expect it to taste like a burger and you'll be fine. They are quite good actually.

I disagree with this post (jokingly). Cooking is 80% cleanup! Guess who gets to do this in my house!

Does that mean the boss has taken over the good knife then?

Mostly. I have to often remind her it’s there to use. She thinks it’s too pretty for regular use lol.

Tell her it needs to be used. It's a requirement because the food patina will keep it from corroding. Sounds good at least.

These will hit the cast iron soon.

What kind of cut of meat is that? Actually looks pretty lean.

I thought it looked like pork. I've been really digging pork loin on the grill lately. Good stuff.

I bought an eye of round and cut a roast and a few steaks from it. I salted and beat them and let them sit for about an hour, then dropped them in a hot cast iron with butter to sear each side, turned the heat down and let them finish cooking. I actually over cooked them a little for my taste not paying attention. Got a medium cook where I normally like a medium rare.... Not bad otherwise. Flavor was good. Not as tender as a tenderloin, but not so tough you had to work to eat it.

I think @ShawnF needs to have a separate thread on cooking in cast iron! His meals always look perfect!

You definitely fooled me on the cut of meat. I thought the marbling was somewhat lean so figured it was pork. They look great. I've been trying to limit my red meat consumption but when I do have a steak, I try to stick with New York Strip/Shell or Porterhouse or Filet Mignon. I'll also cook up some flank, skirt, flap and hangar steak if I'm going to marinate it. I prefer my meat nice and tender. If it's tough in any way, it kind of ruins it for me. But those look really delicious.

Pork loin slow cooked in a crockpot all day, shredded, gravy added, and put over egg noodles. Not gourmet, but damn is it good!
