Its hard to tell from that pic, but it looks about the same size i normally get from the butchers.
Bet it was 1000 times nicer tho, as i cant cook it for toffee!

Place round here does 24oz for 15 quid and 32 for 18. Cooked to perfection as well. Must go again soon.

Looks more like a rib-eye than sirloin?

I absolutely love my steak, my favourite meal but would think that'd be too big to be enjoyable cos I don't know if I'd be able to eat it all but I'd still try 
How did you have it done

Medium rare/ First time I have had like that. I think medium would have been better.

Probably quite hard to get it to cook right being so big. Outside will end up burnt and the very middle of it blue

Medium rare is perfect for steak, edging more on the rare side, nice and pink middle

My dad loves making that. Depends on my mood for what I'd rather tbh.

Oh, and cook my steak for 30 seconds either side and hand me it with salt and pepper and I'll be happy.

Medium rare is my new found love. Always had it medium well done but medium rare is so so good. With a nice peppercorn sauce, mmmm

TBH steak has always been incredibly expensive and mostly crap in the UK. I am spoilt in australia for choice of steaks. You can head down to the local supermarket and pick up a monster t-bone or rib-eye for about $20.
