  1. The north didnt feel the effects of the war like the south did (which was an agricultural society).

    Same in the us in the final year of WW2.

    But never in our history has there been treason on the scale of obama, clinton, kerry, biden, pelosi, omar, etc.

  2. Can you think of a better time?
    Huh?
    Really?
    Prolly had to eat tougher beef – I guess hamburger hadn’t been invented yet.

    Strife breeds innovation.
    Peace and plenty breeds chickenshit.

  3. …supporting large armies in the field eats the ass out of ANY economy, plus many of the able-bodied farmers were called up, so the quality of steaks available to civilians was probably not great, so they needed SOMETHING to mask the toughness and diminished flavor…

    …plus, some enterprising 4F may have figured it’d be a good sell to the Army of the Potomac, but I’m too lazy to look it up, although the company I work for largely exists because, as Napoleon once said, armies travel on their bellies…

  4. I came within inches of dis-owning my son when I took him to a nice steakhouse after one of his football games in college. He ordered a beautiful Porterhouse and then proceeded to cover it with that goop.
    Dang kids…..

  5. …not that I think they’d mind selling it to the South too, if the South wanted it…Cincinnati sold pork to the South and frustrated every attempt to stop it, so there’d be plenty of precident, though I doubt steak flavorings was top-of-mind for the resource-strapped South, though maybe it would improve the taste of shoe leather, if they had any…

  6. After Lincoln “freed” the slaves and Sherman had burned Atlanta, he marched toward the sea. Many slaves followed him because they were now homeles. Sherman shot their mules to stop them from slowing him down. I presume that a good “steak sauce” was probably needed if you are eating “MULE”!

  7. A.1. is a brand of steak sauce produced by Kraft Foods. Sold from 1831 as a condiment for meat or game dishes in the United Kingdom, the makers later introduced the product to North America, where it was marketed as a steak sauce.

  8. I fry my steaks in a very hot cast iron skillet, covered, about 2 minutes per side depending on thickness. Rib eyes my favorite.
    A little Lea & Perrins and a dash of lemon pepper on the meat before cooking.
    Remove the steak and throw some Bush’s or Ranch Style beans
    in the skillet while it’s still hot, along with some red onion and maybe some bacon.
    I like A1 sauce with some Pico Pica hot sauce added for extra interest.
    Acceptable garlic bread can be made by sprinkling Parmesan cheese and garlic salt on toasted English mufflers.

    A substantial meal in minutes.
