    Flat Iron?

    I received a gift of some meat from a new packing plant located just outside Billings MT, called Marbled Meats. I've never cooked Flat Iron steak before. It looks very well marbled. How would you cook it? Is it a tender cut that should be served medium rare? I really like the taste of beef...

    Weber Kettle 22" ?

    I've never owned a Weber Kettle grill and I'm considering getting one. Can anyone explain the difference other than colors between an Original Premium, the Master Touch and the 70th Anniversary Edition. Is mostly cosmetic or do the have different features?
