Which is what I was /trying/ to say in my post. I think you did a

That is the only time I use precooked beef. Saves a lot of time and
has tastie results.

available from the US .gov as handouts but I haven't seen it in 7
years. It has the blue stripe of quality that lets you know it goes
good with "Cheese".
