how much does it cost?!

i rkn if i starve myself the whole day i'll be able to..

Starving all day is probably the worst way to prepare for eating a massive meal...

[R-SPEC]

see above, outback jacks. 1kg of rump, and I estimated it at about 4-500g of vegies, 3-500g of wedges...Originally I thought the sides would be the same as they are on the normal steak meals - chips, a bit of coleslaw and salad...I would've done that no worries. But 500g of vegies AND thick wedges slows you down quite a bit...Still, I didn't feel I was in form going into the challenge and still only just fell short, so on a good day I think I could do it..

i see

how does it compare to say chicken, as in harder/easier to get down?

dont know how i'd go with a piece that size should try it soon. i've had 2 whole medium/fair sized chickens on a few occasions but dont know how something like this would compare

fascinating

I finished the steak in about 15 minutes, but it gets pretty hard to chew when you're eating that fast... same for the vegies, there's so much food there that it starts to get cold...wedges etc don't go down so easily as they get colder...

I see... Personally don't think I could go any rarer than medium rare...The med. rare at Vlado's was right on the borderline of just being edible (for me), it's probably a true medium rare...Problem with most everyday places that aren't full on steak houses etc is they don't nail the doneness...If I'm at your average pub for a steak, I might even order rare because I know they're likely to overcook it. Can be a bit of a risk if they nail it rare, and it's too rare for me, but hasn't really gone wrong yet..

At a proper steak joint I'd ask for it med rare as they're more likely to know what they're doing

this is the problem, as a rule steak joint's are not where you will find the best steak. There are a few exceptions, but most are just cheap shitters that are apelaling to the LCD. try rockpool for a seriously good steak. maze grille is also excellent. squires loft is always reviewed brillianty, although i havent bothered myself yet. Vlado's has been reputed as one of melbourne's best for 30 years now.

Any 2 or 3 hatted restaurant should do a better steak than 99% of other places as that is generally where the best chef's work and the restaurant spends the money on the best ingredients. An exception to this imho is donnovans, i have been there twice and it was just shit both times. i'm pretty sure they pay for their hats. Grossi is also pretty shit.... basically it's because they are traditional itallian, and itallians are pretty much always useless when it comes to cheffing. they spend too much time telling everyone how good they are to actually learn how to do things properly, as they think it's "in their blood" which is just a load of horseshit.

going to a pub is always going to be shit, as no good chef's work there. they dont know how to cook a steak and dont care. they are usually just cooks anyway. a gooood steak is an art and takes a long time to learn. you have to be able to know the meat by look and feel alone and alter many things accordingly. you also have to be able cook it to a degree less than ordered and let it rest it's way up to the desired temp. The only way you will ever get this 100% is by cooking 1000's of them with a seriously good chef over your shoulder checking every one.
