Why are there so many recipes for making
The perfect home cooked steak?
Is it a fiction, a simple illusion
Can only a salamander provide?
So we’ve been told and some choose to believe it,
I know they’re wrong; wait and see.
CHORUS
Somehow we’ll find it, The Maillard Reaction,
The Foodies, Briners, and AB.
Who said that every steak could be pure perfection
When cooked in the proper way?
Alton said that, and we all believed it,
And look what we’ve done so far.
What's so amazing that keeps us a-cooking
And what do we think we'll achieve?
CHORUS
Somehow we’ll find it, The Maillard Reaction,
The Foodies, Briners, and AB.
All of the wondrous smells,
We know that it’s culinary magic.
Have you had half-cooked meat? And have you had charcoal?
I’ve had them both, so you see.
Now the sweet call of probe thermometer
And sturdy cast iron beckon to me.
I’ve heard it too many times to ignore it
It’s something that steak's should be.
CHORUS
Somehow we’ll find it, The Maillard Reaction,
The Foodies, Briners, and AB.
Laa, da daa dee da daa daa,
La laa la la laa dee daa doo...
