It was the mound of rock salt that made all the difference.

Grilled steak tonight. Worked out quite nicely.

So I open two Explorer windows and have the Axiom boards open on both. First I read a couple of posts in the Steak Thread and then take a long swig from the Beer Thread. Back and forth between the two for awhile, until I find my way to this thread to read about chipotle corn. When I'm done, I feel the need to visit the Fitness Thread. If we can start a sex thread, I'd date this board.

If we can start a sex thread, I'd date this board. Anybody feel like they're already dating this board? "Honey, where are you?" Upstairs, checking my messages... "Are you chatting with those audio [pick one: snobs/nerds/guys] again?!" Yes, dear... "When do you plan on joining us for some family time?!" Almost done, you should see this funny thing that [Peter/Ken/Mark/Sean/Charles/other] said ... "Isn't that great, maybe you can marry him next time" etc J/K, it's not that bad. Yet?!

You guys crack me up.
I agree completely with the Iowa caucus on the beef topic. I've tried to enjoy grass-fed beef a few times, but it's just not as luscious as grain-fed.
Grass fed cattle are walking around, looking for food, and spending more energy to digest it once they find it. Grain-fed cattle are just standing around easily converting delicious corn into pure, fatty yumminess.
I don't think that the health benefits of grass-fed beef are going to be "enough" to warrant a switch. If you want healthier red meat, perhaps Elk or Buffalo would be a better choice.
But, well, I'm just an enthusiastic omnivore, not a scientist.

Thanks everyone, I've decided to give the grass fed a shot, I can't buy it anywhere locally so I ordered a few steaks from Alderspring in Idaho. As Ken pointed out they can't be cooked like a grass fed steak, since they are leaner they cook much faster. The health benefits are that Grass-fed beef not only is lower in overall fat and in saturated fat, but it has the added advantage of providing more omega-3 fats. Of course none of that means anything unless they taste good. I've had Elk, Buffalo and Ostrich, I'm a city boy and can't eat anything that tastes gamey or looks like Bigbird. I'll report back in a few days after we've tried a couple of the steaks.

I haven't had the gaminess problem with buffalo. Odd. I tend to use it ground, though.

Not as luscious, but more seductive.
