Healthy Steaks

Love steak?

Who doesn’t?  (Don’t answer that.)

Like being healthy?

Who wouldn’t?

Oprah, over at Oprah.com (via Dr. Katz), gives us tips on cooking a healthier steak.

I like that. I think we’re all trying to find ways to stay healthy and cook healthier.

Hint:  Use beer for your marinade.

Hey, if cooking with beer makes my steak healthier – sign me up!

How to Broil a Steak in the Oven

 

Sometimes you want to do something different. And sometimes you just want to pop that steak in the oven instead of firing up the grill.

This link shows you step-by-step how to do that and get great results.

It’s especially helpful if you live in a small apartment without access to an outdoor grill.

One thing, though, the post states that a Porterhouse is otherwise known as a T-bone. That is not true. They are different cuts (one has more filet side and one has more strip side). Different. Similar, but different.

Check out descriptions of cuts of beef here for everything you ever wanted to know about the different steak cuts.

But do check out this process and let me know how your broiled steak turns out!

But hey, a “pretty great” steak still surpasses anything else I could possibly eat. So there.

Maybe you’ll fare better.
