raffy Posted January 28, 2012 Report Posted January 28, 2012 ^Does not suck (could be thicker still though). I want a steak now. I knew you would say that! Seriously though this was way thicker than the last one I grilled, it was around 18 ounces. I took a close look at the pic and it does show way thinner than it really is. Must be my shitty photography skills. It was actually pretty medium well. For some reason any kind of steak/red meat I take a picture of in my dining room comes up super red even without the saturation turned up. I remember taking a pic of another steak before and it come out super pink as if it was glowing raw i can hear that cow still mooing raffy
crappyjones123 Posted January 28, 2012 Report Posted January 28, 2012 i read a while back that photographing people from above made them look slimmer and their eyes bigger. makes for more flattering pictures. perhaps the same applies to steak? try taking a picture at a smaller angle of incidence. can't do it from the table top as the plate will get in the way but maybe when the steak is still on the grill?
Absorbine_Sr Posted January 29, 2012 Report Posted January 29, 2012 Debbie made an excellent chuck roast braised in brewed coffee and balsamic vinegar. That was accompanied by roasted carrots, fingerling potatoes and cremini mushrooms. Now enjoying a glass of Graham's Six Grapes Reserve Porto.

Clarkmc2 Posted February 1, 2012 Report Posted February 1, 2012 cetoole, those are great looking plates. I would admire the food, but I have been vegetarian for forty years.
Clarkmc2 Posted February 1, 2012 Report Posted February 1, 2012 (edited) As a matter of fact, there is a saying among long time vegetarians that chicken must be a vegetable. Whenever you tell someone you are one, they usually say, "You eat chicken, don't you?" I guess if corporations are people, ducks could well be vegetables. Edited February 1, 2012 by Clarkmc2
HDen Posted February 1, 2012 Report Posted February 1, 2012 as a side-note, you can make excellent vegetarian dishes on a sous-vide
