I just looked up the sizes of steak...
It turns out that the steaks that my flatmates eat in a well balanced diet are much smaller than most pictures I can find online.
I'll be honest, if my meal was so large that a 20th bite of something that was a third of the plate was coming up I would be much more inclined to share my plate than I am now.
- Symbiote 10y agoSteak sold in supermarkets in Britain seems to be around 150-200g, though the NHS recommends portions of under 100g of red meat. Restaurants in the UK typically serve 225-400g. American restaurants seem to serve between 300-600g (!).
- maxerickson 10y agoA 10 ounce steak (~300 grams) will be one of the larger steaks on an awful lot of menus in the US.
- ksenzee 10y agoIt depends on the restaurant. At a steakhouse, for example, you'll commonly see quite large portions. There was a 24 oz prime rib on the menu at the steakhouse I visited last week.
- JoeAltmaier 10y agoMy favorite: "Beef House" on the Illinois-Indiana border, Hwy 74. Its this enormous rambling place, parking lot like a basketball arena. Menu is the size of a newspaper page, with ribeyes of different sizes splashed across the center of the page. From 8 to 20 oz. Tables have captain's chairs with wheels, presumably so they can roll you out to your car after the meal.
- unwind 10y agoThis sounds like the place: http://beefhouserolls.com/ http://beefhouserolls.com/, menu online. :) The 20 oz ribeye is $42.35.
