Blogwatch: The Paupered Chef Investigates the Smash Technique

My first job was cooking at the Jersey Shore. Burgers and dogs. We ground our own meat, formed into balls with an ice cream scoop for storage, and pulled out a ball and smashed it on the flat top right away. As noted above, grill (cast iron works at home) needs to be very hot.

I made thousands of these over my 4 year burger career, no waiting for the ball to sear...

Was that plain, cheese, or the big gun, a Cali cheese on a hard (kaiser) roll?!?

Ribeye, dry-aged in my cellar (in a mini refridge devoted to the purpose) for 8 weeks, grilled over mesquite and rare.

I don't really have a favorite. I just love steak. If I had to pick one it would probably be a filet.

Believe it or not... the best cut I ever grilled was a flat iron steak. Tender like Fillet Mignon, with the beefy taste of a Strip steak. My new favorite.

While I love a nice rib eye thick with dry rub and baked or thin on the grill with seasoning, the mighty Porterhouse is the undisputed champion.

I love a Porterhouse steak, medium rare, with cognac peppercorn sauce. My husband and I order this and split it, just enough for two!

We love ribeye steak. A strip steak is second choice. But for a special day a standing rib roast is tops!

I always forget which one I like better--sirloin or NY strip. But yummy!
