I had a really poo poo t-bone, barely fried serve of chips and an undressed salad at my local sportsmans club last night. Paired with some 4 Pines APA on tap.

Honestly almost cried with pure joy. It had been so long and it was perfect.

is it just me or is T-bone just a poo poo cut of meat?

Like I dont think I have ever had a good one. ever.

Scotch fillet/Porterhouse for lyf (or an eye fillet if on spesh and cut 1.5-2" thick)

Please bitches. If nothing else I am a gentleman
T-bone is tough because you're cooking two different cuts of meat at once, so the eye side or whatever is always overcooked.

Imo ribeye is the best cut of steak. It is beefy, yet tender. The perfect lover

Imvho sirloin/porterhouse is a top tier cut of meat. Good flavour and a balance of that nice fat cap.

Rump cap is also good as is picañha

I dig Ribeye immensely but its not a cut you can buy all the time due to price nor is it offered at most pubs. my post was mostly in relation to pub cuts.

given the choice I will stick a huge rear end ribeye on my smoker and cook that poo poo all day as low as possible.

Episode 2 of John Safran's Race Relations

I think it was definitely pretty questionable, but I think it came from a reasonable place - ie, how could I, a white inner city Melbourne Jewish person, possibly have any meaningful understanding of the lived experience of a racially segregated minority - though I haven't seen all of it and I think I turned it off because he's better at talking about music than he is at being Louis Theroux

before the corona stupidity hit I could get ribeye fairly reliably at the local woolies and it was about the only steak I'd cook cause a decent sized one will feed two. Recently though its been piles of eye fillet for cheap cause non of the restaurants have been buying it. I'd prefer a porterhouse over a t-bone but its hard to get just a single porterhouse

re steak chat my favourite bit of meat I ever cooked for myself was a bit of lamb backstrap I slow cooked over a chimanea, though I usually just go the beef flank because it is exceptionally cheap and perfect for simple searing and salting.

I used to be able to get pork fed on spent brewing grain, lambs fed on the same and other stuff, and really good quality beef when I lived in Toowoomba for an unreasonably cheap price. $8/kg for whole lamb, $11/kg for whole pig, and about $10/kg for picañha and sirloin

It doesn't help when the rangehood sucks about as well as a broken vacuum, I do ripping hot sears in my cast iron and I have to open all the windows and doors to the outside to let the smoke escape for about 20 mins after steak time

my woolies doesnt really ever get any of the non-common cuts but yeah I have been to some woolies and coles that almost specialise in good poo poo. the coles near my old place constantly had brisket, ribs (pork and beef) and pork shoulders on offer at decent prices.

There is some other oddities with the selection at my woolies. its not even a small one, although its definitely an older style woolies.

eeeeh

What he did is read a book where the author collated his journal entries from doing the same in the fifties, following a similar experiment from the forties, and then painted himself up and confronted white people about saying friend of the family without doing anything to maintain the illusion once he and his camera crew approached them. As I said before - I think it comes from a better place than Chris Lilley's garbage, but I don't recall it being particularly tasteful or risky for him.

I really like porterhouse for steak. On the other end of beef cuts, I tried doing an American style smoked brisket a few weeks back and that worked a loving treat. Sliced it up, piled on horseradish and some fried onion on some toasted sourdough and gently caress me that was a good sandwich.

Always hated Chris Lilley and I remember seeing people using his bits too bully Islander kids in high school when he first blew up. Like I know Australia is racist as gently caress, but this poo poo is long overdue.

WA native here. We called them Potato patties when I was a schoolkid, but I think they're generally referred to as potato scallops.

Just checked online. There's a bunch of overpriced gastro bullshit fish and chip restaurants catering to the tosser demographic that don't seem to have them. But the greasy fish and chip shop style places we grew up on call them Potato Scallops.

well why not
Feb 10, 2009




Chris Lilley shows feel like a direct descendant of the absolute garbage comedy shows the UK makes. Mrs. Browns Boys is similar, as is Little Britain It's just insanely campy junk that's really keen on making GBS threads on people for being different. UK comedy has "man in dress" as a pillar of it's existence, still, somehow.

I liked "We Can Be Heroes" when it aired, but i'm sure it's embarassing now. The rest of the guy's work seems like a glitch and it should've been made somewhere between 1970-2005, not starting in 2005. Jonah from Tonga is straight up black face and it somehow was on air in 2014. And one of his "characters" released a clip with the n-word in it like 3 years ago.

How can you be this focussed on making these characters but somehow not be aware that what you're doing is cooked? Like, he gets a lot of the details that make the characters feel authentic so correct, so he must do some level of research, but somehow misses the memo on "don't do blackface?".

Potato scallops is the WA thing I grew up with yeah, my parents have always called them potato cakes though and they're from Canberra and Melbourne.

Yeah, Jonah has a real love of the character and environment and the Pacific Islander ratbag student has legs as a character, look at brotown as an example.

Comedy by its intrinsic nature has to age badly and quickly , and everything moves somquick these days. 2014 seems too recent Didn't realise there was a spinoff of Jonah and maybe a drop in writing quality, and that it focuses entirely on Jonah instead of the greater school context means it was less insulated from being effectively blackface



Maybe it's ego, Chris Lilley can write characters with what seems authentic love for the source. But then will inject himself

I'm not sure what the solution is, but it is problematic

This is spot on. Poorly executed drag was kinda funny when the Pythons (or Aunty Jack) did it but should have been left behind in the 70s. Also, Dame Edna was never funny.

Most of the characters in We Can Be Heroes were either fair game or just so absurd as to be above offence. The really weird thing though was the plotline for the clearly racist depiction of a Chinese student which revolved around his well meaning but incredibly insensitive treatment of aboriginal culture and history. I honestly don't know if the irony was intended or not but given his later shows I'm leaning towards it being the latter.
