Recipes For the Busy Homemaker BEEF STEAKS FOR THE BARBECUE In Queen Anne's time, great men of England noted for their wit and joviality, formed the fain• ed old Beef Steak Clubs and wore a small golden gridiron for a badge. Today their Canadian con- temporaries have their gridirons mounted on mother earth in their • own backyards. Their badge has become a big chef's apron whk h they wear in grand style while cooking the beef steaks over the coals and they seem,to have no less fun than did the jovial men of merry old England. As Victoria Day usually signals the unofficial start of the outdoor cooking sea- son, a few pointers for the happy breed of beef eaters on how to buy a steak are outlined here. Large Beef Steaks For Several Servings—Allow one-third to one- half pound per person. Porterhouse Steak is the choic- est of the large steaks. It contains • a T-shape bone and a large por- tion of the round tenderloin or -"undercut" as some people call it. A good cut for cooking over the coals is at least 11/2 inches in thickness. Sirloin Steak is tender and well flavored. The sirloins are named • for the -shape of their bone—round boned, wedge bone, double bone and pin bone. The round and wedge bone sirloins have the high- est proportion of lean meat. Dou- ble and pin bone sirloin have a larger proportion of bone and give fewer servings. A cut at least 11/2 inches thick is preferable for bar- • becuing. Top Round Steak is' a less ten- der steak than sirloin but a top quality cut with some marbling of fat through the lean and is suited to longer, slower cooking on the, outdoor grill. Some people prefer to marinate, or to score top round • steak prior to cooking to make it more tender. A cut 1/2 to % inch- es thick is best for this steak. Small Steaks—Allow' one steak per person. Tenderloin Steak is a round, boneless and very tender steak cut from the porterhouse. It is a 1 • • • • • • • • • 4 • • CO and FUEL OIL Wm. M. Hart Phone 784 Seaforth commonly known as a filler fil- let mignon (pronounce: fill -lay mean -non). It is the choicest and most expensive of the small steaks. T -Bone Steak contains the T- bone and a small portion of the tenderloin. Club or Wing Steak is the small- est steak. It is triangular shaped and edged on one side with a rib boner It contains very little, if any, tenderloin. These three steaks should be cut at least 1/ inches thick for barbecuing. This thickness pre- vents the steak from drying out while cooking. From One BackYard To Another Frozen steaks should be thawed before cooking over the coals. Fat should be trimmed from ut- er edge of steak to prevent blaz- ing or flaring of fire. Grill should be high enough so that flare-up does not char meat and water should be on hand to sprinkle blaze. Use trimmings to rub 'over grill and prevent meat from sticking. Score edges of steak so that it will 'remain flat while cooking. Turn steak with tongs. A fork makes a hole in meat through which escape. J For those of you 'who like to brush your steak with a sauce while it cooks, here is a tested recipe from the Consumer Section in Ottawa. Barbecue Sauce For Meat 2 tablespoons brown sugar 11/2. teaspoons dry mustard / to teaspoon chili powder 1 teaspoon salt 1/s teaspoon pepper 11/2 tablespoons spicy meat sauce 3 tablespoons vinegar % cup finely chopped onion 3 cups tomato juice. Mix brown sugar and seasonings. Add remaining ingredients and mix. Simmer until thick, about 30 minutes. Makes three cups. Use with beef, lamb, minced meat pat- ties, spareribs, etc. ' A Saucy Dish Many people consider asparagus" the aristocrat of vegetables be- cause of its delicate taste and noble lineage . . . it's a cousin of the orchid. A spring perennial, asparagus takes at least three years from seeding to become ed- ible, but it makes up for this slow growth process by sprouting as rapidly as ten inches a day. It is for this reason that asparagus must be quickly hand -harvested to catch the stalks at their tender- est. A mature asparagus plant can yield as often as 60 times during the growing season. There are many delectable ways BELL LIMES by W. W. Haysom your telephone manager Back in 1911, 246 telephone people gathered in Boston for the first convention of The Telephone Pioneers of America. Today, 50 years later, the triangular emblem shown above is worn by some 202,000 men a n d women throughout North America who proudly call themselves Pioneers. There are 12,000 Pioneers in Canada and this month many of them will ,<v1B7S 1911S gather in Toronto for the 21st Convention of the -Charles Fleetford Sise Chapter—an all - Canadian chapter. Miss Min- nie Habkirk and Miss Evelyn, Cardno, of Seaforth, are Pioneers in this community. All Pioneers here as elsewhere have one important thing in corn- mon—they must have completed 21 years of service in the telephone business. The word "service" is probably the key to the Pioneer movement. On the job the Pioneer like his fellow employees devotes his time to service—telephone ser- vice. How natural then for the Pioneer to spend his leisure time serving his fellow employees and his community. You'll find the Pioneer. visiting the sick, helping his fellow Pioneers, promoting hobby interests and taking an active role in corn- munity projects. It's this SPIRIT OF SERVICE that has kept the Pioneer organization thriving over the years. It has made them a credit to the telephone industry, to their fellow em- ployees and to their communities. • OF AMERICA • Like most parents in Seaforth, you have probably spent many anxious moments worrying about your youngsters when they are away from home for a good part of the day. If you could only hear from them and know they're alright, special- ly if they're late for a meal or are delayed on their way home. Well, there's one good way to set your inind at ease: encourage your youngsters to call you from a phone booth. There's nearly always a handy outdoor booth nearby—at stores, service stations, on the streets and highways. Some parents make sure their youngsters have a dime with theca at all times expressly for this purpose. You'll also find a phone booth a mighty welcome sight when you're in a hurry to make a phone call on the go—and so Convenient, too, in bad weather or late at night. They're there for your con- venience; we hope you and your family use them often. The rainy season appears to be with us—Good for the carrots and the peas, but not so good for golfing, fishing, and gardening. However, the warm weather holidays will soon be with us. As we've mentioned many times before, your telephone can be particularly helpful to you at holiday -time. - It's your means of letting folk know when to expect you, or of making advance reservations, if you're going away. Don't forget to use long distance. /000Z Walton WMS . Has Active Meeting The WMS of Walton -United Church met in the basement of the church on Thursday afternoon.
