This recipe was extracted from The hearthstone; or, Life at home (1883) by Laura C. Holloway, page 273. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.
a little salt over the fire, put on the gridiron for a few minutes to get thoroughly hot through ; rub it with a piece of fresh suet to prevent the meat from sticking, and lay on the steaks, which should be cut of an equal thickness, about three-quarters of an inch, or rather thin- ner, and level them by beating as little as possible with a rolling-pin. Turn them frequently with stcak-tongs ; if these are not at hand, stick a fork in the edge of the fat, so that no gravy escapes, and in from eight to ten minutes they will be done. Have ready a very hot dish, into which put the catsup, and, when liked, a little minced shallot ; dish up the steaks, rub them over with butter, and season with pepper and salt. The exact time for broiling steaks must be determined by taste, whether they arc liked underdone or well done ; more than 27 430 THE hearthstone; or, life at HOiME. from eight to ten minutes for a steak three-quarters of an inch in thickness, we think, would spoil and" dry up the juices of the meat. Great expedition is necessary in sending broiled steaks to table; and to have them in perfection, they should not be cooked till everything else prepared for dinner has been dished up, as their excellence en- tirely depends on their being served very hot. Garnish with scraped horse-radish or slices of cucumber
