I do t really know what it is or why it’s called “Canadian.” I think it’s made up. I think it’s more like a thinly sliced ham of some sort that’s been cut in a circle. No idea what the thrill is. It fits an English Muffin perfectly, and is therefore very suitable for 'Eggs Benedict'. ... or an Egg McMuffin ;-) That is why I say it was invented for a sandwich I have never been able to fry the stuff so it is not turned in to leather. It's not supposed to be fried, only heated. |

You are probably cooking it too long. That is already "Cured" so you are just warming it up. |

Oh yeah...we can't forget a nice cold 1w oz light beer. If I'm hungry I might move up to the 12 oz steak. A 12 oz steak and a then worry about the beer being lite? "I'll have 2 Big Macs, a large order of fries, apple pie and a diet Coke." (a more common order that you would think) |

Oh yeah...we can't forget a nice cold 1w oz light beer. If I'm hungry I might move up to the 12 oz steak. My wife and I usually will split an eight ounce steak. One of the restaurants we frequent serves up what it calls a tomahawk steak and if memory serves, the menu describes it as a 30-36 ounce steak. I've seen a couple of patrons order one at nearby tables...I can only guess that it is either shared or a huge chunk of meat is taken home for Fideaux. "Tomahawk Steak" is a clever way to serve you a great big bone at restaurant prices. All they do is leave the whole rib bone on a butt end rib steak, similar to how you "french" lamb chops. Usually they cut that bone off. I bet a 36 oz Tomahawk fillets out at around 16-18 oz of meat. The meat they cut off that bone end used to be called "plate" and it was so cheap at Swift that my sister fed it to her dogs. Then when the fajita craze started, they called it flank steak and charged more for it than the rib steak. |
