Michigan Steak Test

How cute is this?

To check the doneness of your steak, use the Michigan Test. Stretch out your hand and poke the center of the palm and if the steak feels like you're in Lansing, it's overcooked. If it's more like the area below the thumb, the steak is rare. Below the last knuckle on the pinkie finger, it's medium. Under the last knuckle of the ring finger, the steak is medium rare.

Thanks to Susan at the Detroit Free Press for that one!

Remember when you and Paul had a steak challenge and Adam, Katie and I were the judges'?

That was a looooong time ago, but still fun to think about.

I forget who won.....do you?
