rocknrobn26 Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Wife is making Beef Stroganoff (sp) tonite sooo I stole a few pieces of the raw round steak! YUMMY!!! When we were kids my Mom would buy a round steak, have it ground, mix a raw egg in with salt & pepper, and then my Bro and I would watch Pro Wrestling on Saturday nite smearing the Steak tartare on crackers. Yummy even more! We loved this stuff and still do. Curious to see if anyone else likes it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiegie Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 RR, you know my feelings on this already. :yum: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 I still eat a few pinches of raw chop meat when I make burgers... never got sick from it. Fresh beef from a good butcher won't get a person sick... the ecoli problems come from those big beef n burger processing plants, the frozen pre-made burgers. Raw beef.... it's goooood.

Bier Meister Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 yes, but i don't eat it straight from whatever cut i'm preparing. - minced celery - minced red onion - chopped parsley - chopped cervil - a little egg yolk - porcini powder - garlic powder - salt and pepper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egret Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 I might eat it if it were organically grown and grass fed. There's a reason beef is recalled more often these days. Cows get sick more often when raised on corn. They get sick more often when housed in closed quarters and fed massive doses of antibiotics and/or hormones. I won't even get into the condition of the slaughter houses. Now, if you want to buy a cow from the farmer down the road and eat it, that's a whole other story.

Egret Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 vegetarian ? French Canadian ? Just no cow. I dropped my total cholesterol 80 points in three months after giving up cow. I figured that was a good enough reason to not eat it anymore. It's been almost four years now. I'm not going to pretend that eating beef was the only reason my cholesterol dropped. It's much harder to eat fast food when you don't eat burgers. That helped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's much harder to eat fast food when you don't eat burgers. That helped. Ms Cid doesn't eat beef or pork. It really limited my diet. There is nothing like a nice filet or New York strip, grilled to medium rare, with a little garlic paste over the top. Every once in a while you just get a hankering for a hunk of beef. Or some good smoked brisket. mmmmmmm...that's the ticket. Yes, steak tartare is pretty freaking awesome. I remember we we're on vacation out in Phoenix one year with my in-laws. We went to this place called Pinacle Peak, an outdoor steak house kind of place. My MIL orders her steak well done. The waitress brings out this dusty old boot on a plate, plops it down in a cloud of dust in front of her and asks her to try it to see if it's cooked enough for her.

detlef Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Love meat and i enjoy it well done ..i know many find it a waste but its the only way i know to eat it May I suggest stew? That way you can cook the hell out of it and it doesn't suck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keggerz Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 (edited) One time back in the early 90's I get home from work and take a look in the fridge and see some beef cubes and toss one in my mouth...I chew and chew and chew and chew when I finally say to my roommate "Damn this is some tough beef" he then says "What beef" and I say the "Beef in the tupperware" he says "Thats not cooked I am marinating it in teriyaki sauce" then me: Edited October 8, 2008 by keggerz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darin3 Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 (edited) My Grandmother used to let me eat raw hamburger meat. She was first generation from Germany. She called it "hoptacater" (know I'm spelling that wrong) or something... A little salt on some real good raw ground beef... yum. E2A: Actually it's... In Germany there is a very popular variant using raw minced pork called Mett or Hackepeter, which is typically served on rye bread or rolls, with the onions and pepper, but without capers or egg.
