      <description><![CDATA[Funny, I hardly COOK beef.  I prepare it and hand it out the back door where my husband grills it.  SO, what is your favorite way to prepare beef ( steaks...and what cut?)  as well as rubs or seasonings?  The cooking part is like magic for me.  I send it out and it comes back in all juicy and medium-rare. ( just how I like it)]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[I'd like to know how to properly grill beef (hamburgers or steak) to keep it juicy and full of flavor. Seems I always end up drying out the beef too much, requiring a ton of sauce to eat it! I want to bring out the natural flavors of the beef instead!]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[QUESTION FROM BECKI: Chef Dave, thank you so much for facilitating our ongoing love affair with beef...I know I have a bunch of questions I would love to get answered by someone who knows the subject matter!<br />
<br />
Flank steak is one of my favorite cuts of beef because it's lean, but flavorful. I keep falling back on one or two stock ways of preparing it, though. What are some of your favorite ideas for flank steak?<br />
I also love cooking with ground beef, because of course it's economical and versatile. I've heard ground chuck is best for burgers because it has a little more fat. How do I know when to use ground chuck, ground round, or ground sirloin?<br />
Last but not least (for now): I've been seeing "Piedmontese Beef" on menus as a leaner burger alternative. What is Piedmontese Beef? And is the premium the restaurants charge for it worth it?]]></description>

Can you microwave meat safely and still have it done and tender?<br />

      <description><![CDATA[My question is probably stupid, but %u2026 I LOVE BEEF and I cook it quite often, and for the life of me I cannot find a way to enhance the flavor without adding boullion. I have tried ALL KINDS of boullions (not the cheap kinds either, and those with low sodium too). I don%u2019t like the final product taste after using boullion, however, because of the extra sodium. What can I do to enhance the flavor quality AND quantity to make sauces and au jus without adding sodium? Thanks!  From Merrie]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[I would like to know how long to cook a roast in a Crock Pot in order for it to be tender.  Is it better to cook it on high for a short time or on low for a long time?  I tend to leave it in longer, but it still comes out tough.  I have a freezer full of roasts that I'm afraid to cook because I think I'll ruin them!]]></description>
