I've basically only done the butter poach. Easy and good. Wastes/uses a hell of a lot of butter.

I have a friend who microwaves them in a bag. She claims they remain juicier.

Interesting read but in the end I couldn't care less about their feelings. Boil them, stab them, they all partying in my stomach.

+1 on the "Nebraska Beef Fesitval". If I have to watch cows go down a ramp to slaughter before I get a morsel, so be it. Just food prep.

+1 on black dog too ; )

Is the prefered method:
1) Put in cold water and bring to boil
2) Put in boiling water
3) Steam?

20 years ago I was young, buff, and cool...with a full head of hair. Let me have my moment, man.

Meat Puppets are a band worth mourning. If Curt Kirkwood was dead.
