Broiled Beefsteaks Recipe

_Time was_, when John Bull little difference spied

His foe, like _beefsteak_, the sweeter for beating.

It were done quickly.

SHAKSPEARE.



Cut the steaks off a rump or the ribs of a fore quarter. Have the

gridiron perfectly clean, and heated over a clear quick fire, lay on the

steaks, and with meat-tongs, keep turning them constantly, till they are

done enough; throw a little salt over them before taking them off the

fire. Serve as hot as possible, plain or with a made gravy and sliced

onions, or rub a bit of butter on the steaks the moment of serving.

Mutton-chops are broiled in the same manner.
