Weakness

Hard to find though. My grandad was a butcher and as a kid we got all the A1 stuff, makes me salivate now ! No idea how to pick out the good stuff myself and never had a semi decent steak from the supermarket.

Ignore the supermarkets, their meat is crap anyway. Find a local butcher instead.

Ask him if he knows where the meat comes from ( the farm, not the wholesaler!), what breed it was, how long it's been hung etc. If he can answer these questions you're probably onto a winner.

how long it's been hung.

Via some of my Radio 4 on the way home knowledge, apparently due to EU regs they are not allowed to hang it long enough to make it really tastsy.

As far as I am concerned, chocolate doesn't exist in less than 100g chunks. Similarly, chocolate coated digestive biscuits don't exist in less than half a packet.

Very nice with ice cold full fat milk.
