Tofu VS. T Bone
Well I will be the first to say I LOVE beef , & the T bone is one of my all time favorite cuts of beef, I like it about an inch & a half thick, cooked rare over a charcole fire , about 140/145 F internal temp. just a little salt & fresh ground black pepper , no A1, no Woschershire ,a little grilled onion & some mushroom on the side is nice , a large mug of dark beer , a pile of french frys nice & dark, with a little salt & ketchup, , Corn on the cob, just a little butter on it, & a tossed green salad with extra virgin olive oil & aged Balsmaic Vinagette dressing & maybe some baked beans , & not the stuff in a can, I mean the real thing ! a Shrimp or 2 to get started, well maybe 3 or 4 big ones & dont forget the coctail sauce !, a small slice of cheese cake to finish it all up with , coffee & a BIG CIGAR with a single malt scotch to wash it all down with, Now that my Friends is what I call a real meal, However I have been eating a lot of Tofu in the past 2 years & it isnt all that bad, for you few who dont know what Tofu is, well it is the ferminted curd of a soy bean, almost like a cheese , but since it is made from Soy & not milk it is a different animal all together, not a lot of taste all by it self, but it lends itself to picking up the flavors of what ever you cook with it, It comes in blocks packed in water, you get it in the produce section of the store, get the firm or extra firm style , I love it cooked with peppers onions & garlic , just cut it into cubes & toss it in the cooked onions & peppers, add a little teriyaki sauce & you have a fine supper, add the shrimp to the pot if you want , it will add to the taste, it is Full of protene & very easy to digest & you can have all the different sides that you would have with the T Bone , even the Beer ! The cigar & single malt with coffee on the side also go well with the tofu, the meal is filling & low cal, low fat & tastes good, not as good as a T bone but a great substitute if you want to take off a few pounds & are worried about eating rare beef, any beef cooked to long is not good in my book, if it gets past medium toss it to the dog !
Knock off its horns wipe its @$$ & serve it, that is the way I like my beef, !
Enjoy, Vince
