Mixed Grill

Can't find a reliable recipe online... can you help?

I am in search of a definite recipe for the ultimate mixed grill which I can supply to others as a reference here in Malaysia where the concept is poorly understood (read one small slice of beef, a sausage and some soggy chips). Can anyone define what must be placed within the mixed grill, and the appropriate method of preparation?

I had a mixed grill yesterday.

It was Steak, Gammon, Chicken and Pork Sausage. It was nice.

I'm surprised anyone needs a recipe for mixed grill, if you are making one at home you tend to use whatever permutation of meat you have available just the way you do with a Barbie.

I had a reasonable MG at a Harvester pub/restaurant last week it was steak, gammon, sausage, fried tomato, peas and chips.

The though of seafood being included with the meat appalls me, that should be a separate meal something like the "frito misso" (spelling may be wrong) that I had in Italy once.

I always like steak done "blue" i.e. cooked very quickly on a very hot griddle literally a few seconds each side. The the outside is black but when you cut into the meat the inside is still virtually raw. Lovely.

One day I want to have the nerve to order steak done the "Australian" way (as per the fabulous Barry McKenzie cartoon strip now sadly missed from Private Eye magazine). When the waiter asks you "how is that sir?" you say "just wipe its *rse knock off its horns and bung it on the plate".

Ooo you're a UK guy. I love the Harvesters, just soooo much meat! I like the Single Seater Combine Harvester!

The free "as many trips as you like" salad bar is great too I always have a couple of bowls of salad as a starter. My son now in his 30's once embarrassed me by making 6 trips to the salad bar during his meal each time piling the salad so high he was in danger of losing it.

I like their steaks, always good quality and cooked exactly as you order.

Yeah, I usually have salad, starter, salad, main, desert. I'm a greedy git but the food there is too nice.

Your son must be a salad bar master, it takes great skill to consistently get that much in a bowl without it spilling, you have to get the layers and content just right so it holds together.
