that's why i started the thread. well, really the opposite. i hadn't ordered steak and eggs out in a very long time, but when i made it at home recently with good quality leftover steaks, the experience was sublime.

what did you do in tv news production?

I agree, but, in "those certain occasions", at 3:30AM, I am not above a LOVELY(at the time) 12oz, almost wafer thin, diner style t-bone steak and eggs. There was always something almost magical about it.

GLC, I "update" it at home, because why the heck not? It can only get better, right?

Exactly, just like 1 min on each side, let it rest. Screaming hot indeed, you will even get a little bit of crust if you are lucky.


BT, you know of any good Bolivian'Peruvian places in the lower east/west side? I can't remember what neighborhood we were in, but there was a real deal Peruvian place(actually served guinea pig) but did a great Tacu Tacu.

Thin cut steak, fried egg and fried plantains with beans and rice. . . SO darned good!

I use leftover steak, even pork steak, just nuking it for a minute while the eggs cook.

I also love to fry a couple of slices of meatloaf to have with my eggs. I could nuke the meatloaf, but it fries up so nicely. Not steak & eggs but close.

Fresh (shot the previous day) , 1 whitetail = 2 tenderloins = 2 to 6 breakfast servings.

That is about the way it was the liver and the tenderloin were the first two things that went into the frying pan.

I can still smell the damp red and black plaid wool along with the Hoppes gun oil. I loved the food but, I hated the long drawn out stories that accompanied the food!

I use cubed steak for that.

Try pork chops and Eggs...

We must be related!! Some biscuits are good for helping with the gravy, too. This is why I bought an excercycle......

It's why I bought the new wing of the International Heart Institute

Just Kidding, I only bought them a set of sheets...

And they should both be cooked the same way: introduce them to the heat, but allow no further conversation.
