Super Bowl Sunday

Although the game itself was something to look forward to, that wasn't the highlight of my day. Gaze and be jealous.. or tell me "so what?". See if I care.

The Robster

Ingredients

DSCF0398.JPG

One(1) robster. Make sure you pick out a nice fat one. I personally consider these things cockroaches, but some people love having them for consumption.

Examine it carefully. Note its physical appearance and its demeanor. Measure its relative size. Then name it something so you can get attached to it. We called ours Agamemnon. Aggy for short.

We had to find a suitable place for Agamemnon for his "therapeutic bath." It took several venues but we finally found a place where he can relax and sort out the kinks in his exoskeleton.

After several attempts at different sized "bathtubs" and multiple threats of breaking his claws off to fit, Aggy finally settled into a nice warm bath.

This is Aggy trying to tell us that the water was getting a bit too hot. He was getting all red. Eventually he settled down, all relaxed and cooked. Ready to be eaten.

The meat

Ingredients

DSCF0396.JPG

One(1) thick slice of steak meat. This one doesn't require a name. You only name things that has eyes. That is why people who own cacti and name them are dumb. Cacti DO NOT have eyes.

DSCF0397.JPG

It does, however, also requires a bath. This bath takes much longer than Agamemnon's bath. I'd say about 30 to 60 minutes. Use one of the many prepared marinades you can purchase at any grocery store. Or use my sekret one, if you know it.

Now, go outside and put together your grill. If you already have one, go ahead and perform sexual oriented acts with your significant other/mistress/robster. If you don't have one of those, go watch TV or something.

DSCF0404.JPG

Raise your arms in truimph in homage of the cavemen who first discovered fire once your grill is complete. This is a required act in making steak.

DSCF0406.JPG

Once the charcoal(yes charcoal, it is the only way to grill. What about gas? I can only think of one use for gas...) gets hard enough, place items on grill like so.

DSCF0407.JPG

It will sizzle and what have you. The steak only needs to cook over the fire for about one minute per side. Any longer and only girls can eat it. Real men do not eat steak cooked past medium rare. That is a law of the universe.

We made fries too, but the pictures are boring. And everyone knows how to make fries.

So, aside from the Eagles losing, it was a very good SuperBowl.

Oh god. I don't know if the story of Agamemnon makes me want to laugh or cry. He was delicious, though.

When preparing steak, it's all about the anco rub... people who only use sauce and don't use a dry rub (hehe- yeah, i still laugh at that), are not permitted to cook for me.

Also, bahama breeze has a good ancho grilled chicken... if you're wiling to wait an hour for your table... which i am... cuz i refuse cook.
