I like steak on the bone, steak off the bone, steak that has never seen or been near a bone, whatever. It all suits me!

But some steak lovers are adamant that steak on the bone retains better flavor.

I can see that.

Check out this steak expert’s take on steak on the bone (he’s at primecutsblog.com) — then go try one for yourself!

Let me know what YOU think. Does it make a difference??

Seriously, how did it get to be . . . August????

What happened to all the projects and things I was going to check off my list this summer?

Organize home office?

Nope.

Clean out guest bedroom closet that is filled with clothes that haven’t seen the light of day THIS DECADE?

Uh, no.

I guess I’m just living in the moment. Sure, that’s what we’ll call it. And I’m enjoying these summer days with my kids — when they aren’t drilling holes in the side of my skull with incessant Star Wars noises and samurai sword sounds.

But one thing we have done this summer is get outside and enjoy really good food. We haven’t let the sunny days go to waste. And I’m feeling a sense of urgency to milk all I can out of what’s left.

I know I’ll blink and it’ll be November!

So here’s to the home stretch of summer. May your days be filled with the rich smells of a grilling steak and those soft, sizzling sounds that accompany it.

The bags of old clothes and unrecycled catalogs can wait. We’ve got some cooking to do!!!

So I found this discussion group on the ‘net called “I Like Steaks.”

I was a bit skeptical at first cuz, well, just listen to some of the members’ names. . .

There’s PhysicalWreck and the very lovely BlasphemousAngel and then there’s sks19 who’s “feeling crappy” today.

Eeeewkay.

But then I read this and decided I might need to take a closer look at this discussion group:

One of my favorite ways to make a steak is to cut up onion, and a little butter, some salt and pepper and maybe a garlic clove or 2, wrap it in foil and bake or throw on a BBQ, if I want to sear the outside, I do that after it’s cooked to almost where I want it, just to get that searing, it makes for a very tender, juicy and well flavored steak.

That, by the way, was from BlasphemousAngel. More like AwesomeAngel, I’d say. The wrapping of steak in foil with the butter, onion and garlic is sheer genius.

I’ve never tried that. But I’m gonna.

Sounds like it would totally infuse the steak with juicy flavor. And that rocks.

And when you do, give sks19 a fist bump from me, will ya?
