1980s - Does anyone recall frozen beef steak slices???
Discussion
As title.
When I were but a nipper my mum used to buy these little packs of frozen slices of reconstituted beef. About 10 in a pack, each separated with a sheet of paper. The beef slices were about 2mm thick.
Used to fry from frozen in about 30-60s and were lovely in sandwich.
Can't recall seeing anything like it available these days, but having just had some sliced beef heated up in a sandwich it's triggered my memory.

I remember these, they were sort of like a very thin minute steak. I used to eat them at college, as they were so thin I used to put 3 on top of each other and then put them in a sandwich covered with oyster sauces which gave then a bit of bite. Veryt nice too.When I were but a nipper my mum used to buy these little packs of frozen slices of reconstituted beef. About 10 in a pack, each separated with a sheet of paper.

Interestingly Sainsbury's started selling them again last year but they then got pulled from our local store

That's the ones, minute steaks. Interestingly Sainsbury's started selling them again last year but they then got pulled from our local store


They are really unhealthy, if you cook three in a pan at once with no fat by the time the are ready the pan is swimming in the stuff. They are like the dirty takeout pictures but in the comfort of your own home.
I think they would be really good in a wrap with cheese slices at 1am on a Saturday morning after a few beers. Like someone said, like a UK Phili cheesesteak but better.
