So, my wife and I had another couple over who decided to become vegetarians about 12 years ago..
Both a whiter than ghosts and about as thin as you can get before being anorexic.
They obviously lack protein intake (not eating enough nutts or whatever vegetards eat to get what little protein they can without feeling guilty).
So, amongst the grilled vegetables I made for them (heh, which I basted with au jus to spite them :devil),
I grilled them a 12 oz porterhouse(mid-rare) they could split if they so decided to eat.. Hell, I'd have offered to make them another if they wanted!
They consumed the steak in it's entirety and even sucked on the bone for a while.. It was really a delightful experience!
Anyhow, I am proud to say that I have become their meat-ambassador and they both have been fully converted omnivores like the
rest of us (sane?) people..

Way to go buddy! You've done your part for mankind.
(And no thats not sarcasm. I think vegetarians are nuts.

A childhood friend of mine earned the nickname 'Duckfat Matt' after being sacked from his job in a French ski resort for serving a challet of vegetarians roast taters cooked in duck fat. They loved the meal and thanked him none the wiser. Matt, ever the showman decided to boast about getting away with it that night during apres ski. He got reported and sacked, shipped back to blighty!
It turned out that he was grassed up by a girl who he and another chef had made a bet on to see who could make her cry the most times in the season.

Don't get me wrong.. I dig some hippie and yuppie food too! Hell, catering to them is my career(chef)!
My wife makes some kick-arse roasted red pepper hummus! I love sushi.. But, nothing..Absolutely nothing
beats beef...Especially when you get into stuff like Kobe...
-
had a girlfriend who was a vegetarian because she felt it was mean to animals, so i finally told her the animals are already dead and her not eating meat is making them die for nothing, that and she had alot of leather stuff, shes a carnivor now lol
-
I'm currently dating a vegetarian. I've increased my intake of vegetables and fruits because of it and feel great.
:rofl, WTFG. Dam veggies are just as bad as hippies and yuppies.
Hippies still love you though, sticks and stones and all. :aok

I've got a shirt that says that :)
Wild game is absolutely the BEST meat you can eat. It's not processed and pumped with that organic crap. Very good for you, too!

Yeah, I saw it in an email and it has stuck with me. I don't know about it all being the best. Squirrel is a bit gamey. I sure would eat it though if it's on my plate.
-
If cooked right, squirrel doesn't taste that gamey. And, like any wild game that you want to get the gamey taste out of, soak the meat in salt water for a little while (usually overnight). It helps tremendously with taking that wild taste away.
Another trck we use (we only do this with duck breast) is to soak the meat in buttermilk overnight. It draws the blood out and takes the wild taste away as well. I'm not sure if it works on other meat.

I remember when they served Rabbit in the messhall at Knox. I couldn't convince the city boys that it wasn't chicken (even though its much better than chicken) until I made them ask the guys working KP that day.
Mmmmm.... rabbit.....

Think about what you said there for a bit. Are you sure you didn't mean to say that wild game is organic and that it isn't pumped full of growth horomones and junk?
:lol

Whilst shore based in the Royal Navy, I went vegetarian (pretty much to annoy the slop jockeys :D) - lasted a whole 5 years then some git made me a bacon sandwich (came to realise what exactly I was missing out on). Never looked back since lol.......
mmmmmmm, steak..... :D

I used to have a bumper sticker that read "Vegetarian is an Indian word for Poor Hunter".

What most Veggies dont understand as well is the fact that they are contributing to Global Warming.
Their diet makes them produce more methane...... and every com left living due to there lack of beef intake, prduces more methane too!
STOP GLOBAL WARMING EAT BEEF!

Eating a steak in front of a vegatarian is almost as much fun as eating bacon in front of a muslim. :t
-
Two stories..
Whilst in college our speech teacher was a tiny little lady who was always pale and sickly. She made no bones ;) about being a vegatarian. One Friday she failed to show for class. Seems on Thursday night she was celebrating her birthday and for some reason had a steak. She ended up in the emergency room and spent 2 days in the hospital.
My sister-in-law and her husband are both Veggies. When they come over for the Holidays my Wife always seats them right in front of the meat platter, be it Turkey or Ham. :lol Also they LOVE my mom's Baked Beans. I laugh every time because my mom puts bacon grease into the beans for flavoring. :rofl Ahh tradition.
-
I married a vegatarian, tho shes not hard core. She'll eat eggs and cheese.
She loves hunting, shooting, fishing...ect, and the 2nd mendment. So that makes her one of us.
I got a sister in law whos a hard core PETA type. But lately shes been spotted with a Big Mac on her breath.
You know I love that organic cooking
I always ask for more
And they call me Mr Natural
On down to the health food store
I only eat good sea salt
White sugar don't touch my lips
And my friends is always begging me
To take them on macrobiotic trips
Yes, they are
Oh, but at night I stake out my strong box
That I keep under lock and key
And I take it off to my closet
Where nobody else can see
I open that door so slowly
Take a peek up north and south
Then I pull out a Hostess Twinkie
And I pop it in my mouth
Yeah, in the daytime I'm Mr Natural
Just as healthy as I can be
But at night I'm a junk food junkie
Good lord have pity on me
Well, at lunchtime you can always find me
At the Whole Earth Vitamin Bar
Just sucking on my plain white yogurt
From my hand thrown pottery jar
And sippin' a little hand pressed cider
With a carrot stick for dessert
And wiping my face in a natural way
On the sleeve of my peasant shirt
Oh, yeah
Ah, but when that clock strikes midnight
And I'm all by myself
I work that combination on my secret hideaway shelf
And I pull out some Fritos corn chips
Dr Pepper and an ole Moon Pie
Then I sit back in glorious expectation
Of a genuine junk food high
Oh yeah, in the daytime I'm Mr Natural
Just as healthy as I can be
Oh, but at night I'm a junk food junkie
Good lord have pity on me
My friends down at the commune
They think I'm pretty neat
Oh, I don't know nothing about arts and crafts
But I give 'em all something to eat
I'm a friend to old Euell Gibbons
And I only eat home grown spice
I got a John Keats autographed Grecian urn
Filled up with my brown rice
Yes, I do
Oh, folks but lately I hae been spotted
With a Big Mac on my breath
Stumbling into a Colonel Sanders
With a face as white as death
I'm aftraid someday they'll find me
Just stretched out on my bed
With a handful of Pringles potato chips
And a Ding Dong by my head
In the daytime I'm Mr Natural
Just as healthy as I can be
But at night I'm a junk food junkie
Good lord have pity on me

Uh, yeah.... That's a given....
Kobe all the way...

All that organic crap? You are really mis-informed sir... Respectfully....
I'd much rather eat something that is certified organic as opposed to what you
normally get at the grocery store that is chock full of hormones, antibiotics, etc.
As far as wild-game... I'm all about game... My restaurant serves game during certain times of the year...
It all depends on what that particular animal's diet.. Deer and boar that eat soy taste like crap...
Don't know if you've ever had Kobe Beef before... But I guarantee it beats ANY and ALL game meat...
-
yeah yeah i misworded it in my original post...early in the morning for me :o
