You would have thought so, but not even remotely. I like my steak medium rare and it came out perfectly.

I think the steak would only really dry out if you left in a box of salt and for 24 hours, only an hour before cooking with oil there is nothing to worry about. Just a few turns of the mill.

That is a mighty piece of steak! Why don't we get steak like that over here?

Also for those who think blue steak should be bloody then you are buying bad steak.

Sorry to dig up another steak thread, but for those of you who missed the salting link:

this is not only to season the steak but to improve the texture by effectively dry-brining it. You do NOT want to salt steak just before cooking it, you want to do it this way, trust me!!!

I had steak cooked for me last night, and the girl who did it is marriage material, lol.
Rump steak, and cooked impeccably well, medium-rare, but on the rarer side, really pink in the middle
When I do the return steak dinner, I'm going to employ all these tactics like salting and whatnot... oh, and serve with bernaise sauce, nom nom!

I just orderd Buccleuch Fillet Steaks. Some of their lovely sausages and blackpudding and a couple of steak burgers. My god their meat is fantastic. Some say the best in Britain.
I cant wait for this to arrive.

Yeh its not something you buy everyweek lol
Bit too brown for me, but i use a similar method for cooking mine
- Heat pan, add Garlic-Infused Oil (love garlic).
- Crush peppercorns across one side, and put in pan top side down (side you just peppered).
- Leave to cook for literally 2mins, whilst its cooking crush your peppercorns across the other side. Turn.
- Add chopped onions, mushrooms and a couple of cloves of garlic (i like garlic!)
- Remove from pan, put on plate next to salad, a jacket potato and some fresh bread.
I only ever cook with Fillet steak, last nights portions were £9 for 2 steaks, pretty reasonable.

Looks nice, but I prefer mine a little bit rarer, and with a cold beer opposed to wine
Agreed

WHOAH! £60/kg fillet steaks!
Those prices are ridiculous. Jack O'Shea's is cheaper and i very much doubt it compares to that (matured for minimum 21 days.. pfft).

might as well go the whole hog and buy Wagyu at £100/kg.

wagyu is overpriced, this beef is hand reared at the castle.
