Steak, The Tasty Frontier

If there’s one thing I miss about living in Iowa, it’s the beef. Since being forced to change my diet in recent years, I don’t have steak all that often anymore. Perhaps “forced” is too strong of a word - it’s just that Ponzi is amazing in the kitchen, and I have to eat everything [...]
