An Interesting Read

Tomahawks Are Pound-For-Pound The Biggest Scam In The Steak World

We hate to be the ones to pull back the curtain on this steak trend, as tomahawks have brought so much joy to thousands on Instagram while they gleefully swing around their steaks like Danny Trejo in Machete. But really, someone has to address this as a scam.
See, it's not unusual to drop a cool $100+ on a tomahawk, and we want you to know that you're paying a $50 to $80 upcharge for nothing more than a cool photo op, as tomahawk steaks are just over-glorified ribeye steaks.
You're not getting much more meat or extra flavor, you're literally paying for an extra foot of bone that you can't even eat.
"Essentially, you're just buying the bone," Chef Michael Puglisi of Electric City Butchers said about the tomahawk. "It's more about aesthetics than anything."

Cutlets, Great As Main Course Or In Between Bread

16 Reasons to Have Cutlets (or Schnitzel or Tonkatsu or . . . . .) for Dinner 

Most cultures have their own version of a breaded, pan-fried meat cutlet—because, no matter what you call it, it's just so darn good.


Skate Wing Schnitzel

“This dish was on our opening menu and still makes an appearance whenever we can get fresh skate wings,” says chef Adam Evans, of The Optimist, in Atlanta. His method also works with skinless turbot, flounder, or sole fillets.

Few legal substances can compete with a crispy chicken sandwich (no deep fryer necessary!) that’s been topped with a cool slaw.

The surface scoring used here helps to create a cutlet that will be evenly thin when pounded out. Try it on beef or veal, too.

This Is A Man's Bento Box

This Cow-Shaped Bento Box Has 10 Pounds of Premium Wagyu Beef 

And it costs nearly $3,000


Japanese bento boxes typically contain an assortment of relatively light, healthy items like fish, vegetables, soup, and salads, along with small portions of rice, meat, or tempura. But a new lunch delivery service called Gochikuru is taking the set meal in the completely opposite direction with the release of a two-foot-wide cow-shaped box full of 10 pounds of wagyu beef from Tottori Prefecture, which is widely considered to be some of the most delectable meat in the world. 

The slices of cooked sirloin, prime rib, brisket, and tongue, are arranged over Kinu Musume rice, and the meal is garnished with dipping sauces, lime wedges, and wasabi. This special delivery item will set you back around $2,800 after sales tax. That’s truly a lot of money for a bento box, but if you were to split this order with nine friends, you could each feast on a pound of meat for around $280 — still expensive, but that price is at least in the realm of what you might spend on a splashy dinner at a steakhouse.
