PH Cooking Competition #29 - STEAK
Discussion
Happy new year to everyone at F,D&R.
Lets get the year off to a good start with the inaugural PH Cooking Competition of 2013.
But first, lets reminded ourselves of the guidelines. I've made some changes to try out for this month, if anyone has any other recommendations feel free to speak up.
* THE RULES OF ENGAGEMENT ARE AS FOLLOWS*
The theme for this month is Steak.
Be it what you will everyone loves a good steak now and again, looking at the POYD thread some more often than others . In it's most generalist of forms 'Steak' is commonly just a name for a type of cut which is perpendicular to the muscle fibers or spine, depending if your produce is meat or fish.
Your mission if you choice to accept it! is to produce a dish that includes a form of Steak.
Godspeed my fellow cooks.
As bob obviously didn't read the rules The closing date for entry's is Sunday the 27th January!

New to this, but a quick question, are you allowed to post more than one entry?
It's one entry per person. (unless the rules have changed)Gretchen said:
Can we prepare & post more than one dish in the thread but choose just one final entry?
For example, by coincidence I'm about to put a steak chilli in my slow cooker, but at the weekend I may choose to prepare a Chateaubriand with a fine green bean.
What tends to happen is that you post your entry into this thread, I will then start another thread with the final picture and who's cooked it, we then vote in the new thread.For example, by coincidence I'm about to put a steak chilli in my slow cooker, but at the weekend I may choose to prepare a Chateaubriand with a fine green bean.
If you post something and changed your mind and wanted to post something else just edit your entry pictures. Just make sure that you do this before Sunday 27th Jan as I will be setting up the poll then.

I thought your choice would be beef, lamb, pork or fish to be honest, never heard of a chicken steak before.

Shirley you would just end up with tiny bits of meat.
How does steak mince work then?Shirley you would just end up with tiny bits of meat.
So I guess steak mince is the more quality cuts EG rib-eye, fillet and such minced up.
Fantastic first couple of entries there chaps.
Miniman - lovely presentation there fella, never cooked venison personally will have to give it a try sometime.
Jogon - Welcome to PHCC. Good first entry there and don't worry I actually quite like the plates - Very vintage which is all the range at the moment.
I have a couple of ideas I'm planning on doing just trying to decide on which to do though.

I may as well post a picture of our usual Friday evening meal unless I get inventive.
Hang on - I'd looked out something special for Friday anyway so count me in !
Whats the closing date ? I can't see it in the original post. Given that its usually 2 weekends, I'm assuming I have not missed it.
