Still not quite up on cooking steaks over here yet. I only learned how to cook steaks on a BBQ. In my experience the steak taste better if: a) There's a boat b) There's an island with no other people c) There's a beach d) The chef has a cold beer in hand e) The BBQ is on one of a through c e) Any combination of the above But it's all a waste if you don't have a good hunk of cow to start with. On a side note, Lady Onion & I decided to have a nice Valentine's night in, with me cooking dinner. I got a couple of lovely steaks. Then on the night realised that I had no idea how to cook the damn things with a gas stove or oven! Thankfully they turned out all right in the end.
