COUNTRY FRIED STEAK
Country Fried Steak
Ingredients:
1# top round steak, about 1/2" thick, cut in 4 equal portions
Vegetable oil or shortening, for frying
1 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon Tabasco Sauce
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
2 cups milk
Dash ground cayenne pepper - or to taste (optional)
Salt and pepper - to taste

Preparation:  Using the pointed side of a meat mallet, pound the steaks to tenderize them, then use the flat side of the mallet to pound them to about 1/4-inch thick.

In a deep cast iron or heavy skillet, melt shortening over high heat to a depth of about 1-1/2" - 2". Heat to 370°.  In a shallow bowl, mix the buttermilk and hot pepper sauce. In another shallow bowl or pie plate, combine the flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and the pepper and mix well.

Dip each steak in the buttermilk, then the flour mixture. Reserve 1-1/2 tablespoons of the flour mixture and set aside.

Two at a time, deep fry the steaks, turning once, until nicely browned on both sides, about 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain then place on a foil-lined baking sheet and keep warm in warming drawer or 200° oven while making gravy.

Discard all but 1-1/2 tablespoons of the fat from the skillet. With skillet over low heat, whisk in reserved 1-1/2 tablespoons flour mixture. Stir until smooth and bubbly, scraping up browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Whisk in the milk and ground cayenne, if using, and bring to a simmer. Simmer for about 3 minutes, or until flour taste is gone. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve the steak with the gravy.  Makes 4 servings.

WHEN GOOD HORSES GO BAD
By Ryan Gingerich, The Behaviorist
I believe there are no bad horses, just horses with bad training. I am often approached by owners with horses that are presenting an array of behavioral problems. Some buck, others rear, still others, bite, kick, weave, crib and head shake. All of these owners wanted to know what caused their good horse to go bad. When these unwanted and potentially dangerous behaviors are expressed we ask how did it happen? Was it the horse, was it someone else or was it the environment which they live in? They wondered if their conflicted horses could be fixed, changed, and rehabilitated back to the green zone. Each time I answered with a resounding, YES!

No horse is beyond rehabilitation. By utilizing proper training techniques all bad or conflicted behavior can be changed.  [CONTINUE READING]

YOUR HORSE'S BAD BEHAVIOR MAY BE TRIGGERED BY SOMETHING YOU DON'T EVEN DETECT
Horses are naturally willing, generous, and forgiving to those that they trust.  We could learn alot from our horse's "forgive and forget" behavior; how many times have you accidentally spooked your horse, or moved your hand without realizing your horse was right behind you?  I don't know about you but I know I've done it several times.  I feel bad about it and I try to let my horse know that I'm sorry, and wouldn't you know...he just looks at me like "ok, I'm over it, what are we going to do now?"

When you have a good relationship with a horse and suddenly they do something that you perceive as bad behavior, chances are your horse knows something you don't.  I'm sure many horse owners know what I mean when I say horses seem to have a sixth sense...and no, I don't mean they see dead people.  However, horses can easily detect our moods or shifts in the weather that suggest a storm is coming.


Whether horses are just very good at picking up on human behavior, or they really can sense our emotions, it can make them react in many different ways.  For instance, horseback riders are always told to get right back up on the horse after they fall off.  This is because if they do not get right back on chances are they will feel fear next time they get on that horse, or maybe even any horse.  Fear and nervousness are the emotions that can make a horse react in a spooky - or even dangerous -  manner when they pick up on it.  The horse will react in a way that will scare the already fearful rider even more and often times riders who do not understand the horse will assume that the horse is the problem. 

This would be the wrong assumption of course, because the horse is only reacting to the rider's fear.  The horse has no idea that the rider's fear is either of falling again or of the horse itself and the horse assumes that the rider's fear is caused by some unseen predator.  If you assumed that Godzilla was going to suddenly appear, snatch you up, and eat you...wouldn't you act a lil' crazy too? 

Never forget that horses in the wild are prey animals, because that fight or flight response will always be there.  Whether our emotions are the culprit or the scary horse-eating broom, even horses that are raised in captivity have this survival response.  [Continue Reading]
