Frisco-Food-Flavor Discovery !!!

I just discovered a great new easy way of food prep that results in much more "Flavor" and "Speed"!!!

After Bariatric Surgery or just normal Healthy Eating "Quality over Quantity" is the Mantra !!!

I have always liked the "End Cut" in a Prime Rib.......Why?.....To me...That's where the Spices and the Meat Flavor come together with the char.......

Than I thought about it some more..... Cut and cook smaller pieces of food. 

Think Korean BBQ, Asian table cooking, fondue.......Why is it so tasty?

Small pieces !!!

Small pieces mean "More Surface Area" being cooked/seasoned/charred/crisped/finished..... All this means...... MORE FLAVOR !!!!!

Other advantages of small pieces:

- Marinates Very Quickly.

- Cooks faster

- Holds more flavor

Perfect Sleeve Sizes........

Pictured here is a London Broil Cut..... pretty lean and needs added flavor.

Cross Cut against the grain and are about 3/8" thick..... Just enough thickness to char the outside and keep the middle pink.

Same theory goes for the veggies on the plate.... thin cut.... maybe 2 minutes on high heat.

Totally makes sense!  I mean I always thought the bite-sized Reese's Peanut Butter Cups tasted better than the regular-sized ones!!

Frisco,
Your dish looks awesome! I had my surgery Friday, May 27th and my question is can you really eat all that's on the plate even as far out as you are.

I'm not even a year out and I could eat double that if I REALLY wanted to (but I wouldn't)

Hi,

It's not as much food as you think...... the meat is about 2oz......Think 3 slices/bites of pre surgery eating. The veggies are also cut very thin.
This is a technique to make your food look bigger than really is by cutting thinner and spreading it out....
I general....I eat less per meal than most sleevers as I am a believer of under eating my sleeve capacity.
