red neck advice.

Last night I was watching King of the Hill on television, it's one of my favourite series. Last night's episode was about organic food and Hank's quest to eat organic after buying tasteless meats and produce from his local supermarket. In the beginning of the episode Hank is grilling steaks for his friends and family. He offers this bit of advice to his son, Bobby Hill.

Hank Hill: Firm but with a little give. Yepp, these are medium rare.
Bobby Hill: What if somebody wants their's well done?
Hank Hill: We ask them politely yet firmly to leave. With great meat, son, comes great responsibility.

I've watched this show a long time and have heard plenty of good lines and bits of "advice". This is probably the best advice I've ever heard.

oh, king of the hill... such deadpan awesome.

my favourite one was when Peggy won the Boggle tournament.

there is a neat test for steak-cookedness. poke the fleshy part on your palm where the thumb attaches. touch the pointer finger to the thumb (tensing the muscle) to get an approximation of a rare steak's give. middle finger = medium rare. ring finger = medium. little finger = please leave this barbecue.
