What in the world is Milk Steak?!
Answers:
That's one of my favorite episodes. Later on in the episode, it's basically explained what it is when Charlie says how he would like it prepared, "I'll have the milk steak, boiled over hard." Essentially, it's steak boiled in milk. I watched the show with the commentary and Glenn Howerton (Dennis Reynolds/writer/executive producer) explained that he was in the writers room when someone said they wanted to have a milkshake and he misheard them, thinking they said "milk steak." He laughed and asked what it was, and they told him they said milkshake, not milk steak. He thought it was brilliant, and added it to the script. I'm sure you can find a recipe for one out there, but I'm sure it didn't exist before the show.
it's usually a tender steak boiled in milk.
Kinda gross, and here's why.
Milk is for babies. tender steaks, like veal, are from calf, the babies of the mother that produced the milk to feed them.
so a cow has a baby and we butcher that baby and boil it in it's mother's milk.
just something to think about.
