I’m a vegetarian these days, but in my meat-eating days a good steak was among my greatest culinary pleasures. But maybe I’m not that much of an expert even so, because I’d never heard of ROUND in this context. That was a slightly unfortunate fact, given that it was the first answer I found today – but didn’t do much to clarify what it was I was looking for.

Fortunately I came up with BRISKET not long afterwards, and that I had heard of. All that was needed after that was to find the other words, including the spangram of BEEFCUTS, and I was able to dig in and finish this meaty puzzle.

How did you do today? Send me an email and let me know.
