They don’t call it food porn for nothing. Want the recipe?

I seasoned this 16-ounce (0.5 kg) ribeye with olive oil, sea salt, cracked black pepper and chopped rosemary. I didn’t feel like building a fire to grill it, so I seared each side in a white-hot cast iron skillet. Upon plating, it received the blessings of raw chopped garlic, scallions and – of course – more olive oil to mingle with the juices and get mopped from the plate with bread.

This, my friends, was breakfast.

They didn’t tell me that this cheeseburger came with a fried egg, bacon and ham on it. I’ll write more about it as soon as I finish metabolizing the bastard sometime next week.

As I sit with bread, oil and salt to write, it occurs to me that great bread, oil and salt are the absolute pinnacle of experience. One needs no meat if his staples are in order.
