Since they were little, my kids have lurked around underfoot when I'm
getting ready to grill steaks. The bribe to get the heck out of my way
was/is one of my own favorite treats - a chunk of the seasoned, raw
steak carved off the main piece and seared briefly in a hot frying pan -
blue steak, essentially.
It used to shock the begeezus out of my mother. And the first time she
had my daughter over (she was probably not quite 5) and was fixing steak
and my daughter demanded the usual tribute, my mother actually called me
for permission to prepare it according to DD's instructions.
