Problem I have cooking for women...

[Guest]

Move on to another recipe... you've tried it how many times on how many girls? Time to find another recipe.

What did you not like about the steaks?
What did the girls say they not like about the steaks?

I don't what your level of experience at cooking is... so I am assuming you are a chode at cooking.
I personally always get Ribeyes at 1 1/2 thick from Costco.
I season it with a seasalt pepper steak seasoning brought off the shelf. Slow cook on a Propane Grill on the lowest setting at approx. 350-400 degree for 5-6 min each side.

I also grill sliced Red Potatoes wrapped in foiled seasoned with the same Steak seasoning and lots of butter... everything wrapped in foil and set to med setting from the very beginning and ready when the steaks are ready. The potatoes should be soft and not crunchy.

Serve with Red Wine and Cheesecake from the Cheesecake factory for dessert.
The taste is a winner, but you can also add eye appeal like in the restaurant. Place cheesecake on clean plate. Add raspberry and strawberries... the amount is your call... fewer the better... add chocolate syrup in slow flo and scribble like a work of art.

This dinner is better tasting than steaks from Hoffbrous Steakhouse.
The Steak is approx $25 to $32 at $6.99 per pound. It will melt in their mouth.
I would even stir fry some sliced mushrooms in butter to serve along with the steaks.

I would also cut the steaks in half (Keep the thickness) before grilling, but instead of a palm size steak.. you would have something approx. 3"x3"
Girls would not finish such a big piece of steak... if they call they can also get another piece.

Forgot the Salad.
I would use spinach instead of Lettuce and cherry tomatoes and whatever else you personally like.

When they bitch about your cooking, how are you handling that? "There's the door if you don't like it." Maybe the steaks are fine but they are shit testing you. That's what I'd be more concerned about.

You fail a couple of these shit tests, they'll be done with you.

Seriously, if you are actually trying and they can see that you really are trying, and they're bitching about it, that sounds a lot more like a shit test to me.

I think the problem actually lies in your attempt to emulate this Picture Perfect steak. When one knows what to do with it, this meal tends to be a success.

Oh so you've sampled the reciepe and found it to be quite enjoyable? Meeting all of your expectations and such? Who knows, maybe you have a live-in chef who is able to prepare the meal to your liking on a nightly basis...

I have to admit, WF, your insult in this case was very subtle and a bit humorous. Be careful though. One of these days you're going to screw with someone who doesn't have a sense of humor.

I don't know PP that well, so I am not sure what his is like.

Smirks - that was a nice response as well :)

In either case, despite the bad joke, there is some decent advice if people are really having a problem with cooking. Also, cooking is a hobby of mine (I am a fat man after all) and I'd be happy to teach a few things if anyone is interested in learning to cook for the ladies.

I have always wanted to take a girl to Wholefoods, pick out some foods and then go back to my place and prepare the meal together. Logicistically this has been impossible for me though so far. I love taking girls there though--they get to sample so many things they've never had, it's a unique experince, and it is kinda relationshipy--something that gets them thinking in terms of you and her in a relationship. Sometimes they have a band playing.

Don't worry about your weight--just stick to the Atkins approach and you drop down to a normal weight. I felt so cheated out of several years of my life because I used to be fat and I didn't understand what was causing the problem--the more I tried to cut out fats the fatter I became. It is really shocking to see how differently girls treat someone who is average versus that same person when they were fat.

I am going to start working out to raise the bar higher still and tone a bit. This is going to be difficult for me becaue Im extraordinarly lazy.

Westfall... how did you lose the weight? Was it strictly the Atkins diet?

[Guest]

If you have a problem with someone be a fuckin man and take it up with that person. No one else here gives a shit.

Yeah, I can't really describe how awesome it was to finally figure out how not to be a fat ass. I recall one time I went to a mall to meet a girl that I was talking to online who was in town. She asked if I was the guy in the blue shirt, and when I said yes she hung up and I never saw her. ha! that was 40-50 lbs ago.

I've stayed away from carbohydrates for about 4 years now and have helped a few other people all of whom have lost a lot of weight on Atkins.

Remember that it is the lack of carbs and high fat content that makes diets like Atkins work. You have to have the fat. I prefer it from a healthy source like fish oil, avacados etc

[Guest]

I'm so glad pussy is low in carbs. Taste great, less filling.
