62. Well, fuck, if you're gonna go well done, might as well cook the shittiest
Edited on Mon Sep-19-05 10:33 PM by Rabrrrrrr
cut of beef there is. No sense wasting your money on sirloin.

Your well done sirloin is no different than a well done shin or chuck or round.

Seriously.

31. Normally: ribeye or top sirloin, cooked medium.
I cooked a top sirloin for lunch. It was cooked just to well done though. I left it under the broiler a bit too long. It was still good though.

52. A good ol' summertime favorite here in my house:
Flank steak marinated in Italian dressing for an hour or so.

Toss it on the grill until medium.

Yum. :)

53. A technique my dad taught me:
make sure your pan or grill is good and hot before you throw the steak on it. Apply a liberal amount of salt and pepper to both sides to seal in the juices. When you throw the steak on the pan or grill, sear each side for 3-5 minutes each side max. Lower the heat (from high to medium) and continue to cook to desired level of cooking.

63. Holy Christ, this is even worse than the well done sirloin above
NY strip is even more expensive!

But seriously, if you're gonna go well done, might as well cook a chuck or a round or some other equally cheap ass shitty cut of meat.

Why waste your money on a NY strip if you're gonna cook it well done?

It's just pure waste.

64. tri tip steak, medium rare ..
This is a very flavorful cut that's great for barbecuing as long as you take pains to keep the meat from getting too tough. The trick is to not trim the fat until the roast is cooked so that the juices can tenderize the meat. When it's done, slice it thinly against the grain. This cut is popular in California, but you might have trouble finding it elsewhere. A steak cut from this roast is called a tri-tip steak.
