It seems as thought I know nothing about my meat. Maybe you can help me out


Do you like your meat aged or fresh?


How do you store your meat?



How do you prepare your meat?...Do you beat it into submission? How do you know it needs Tenderized? Do you marinate it? or take out of the package and have at it?

How can you tell when your meat is done? Do you poke and prod it to see how firm it is? or do you just guess and flop it on the table.


This is a huge problem for me because last night I think my meat was overdone and it was all dried and shriveled up.

If it continues to dry out and shrivel up like that you might want to find a new place to store it.

A little salt and pepper with some olive oil. Throw it on the grill.

Problem solved.

When I was younger, I always left it in the package and "had at it". Now that I am old and gray, it doesn't need a package. As far as flopping it on the table is concerned, if I could have done that, I would have been independently wealthy many years ago.

What the biggest difference between meat and fish? If you beat your fish it will die.

Best way to marinate meat is to "Soak it in cidar".

I'm surprise no one suggested slow-cooking - 8 to 10 hours on low, 4 to 6 hours on high. Of course, that depends on how large your piece of meat is.
