Why does my steak look like this?

[Ilikemyteastrong]

Rump, grilled as I always do my steaks.

I usually have sirloin but they were out so got rump instead.

It looks extremely 'wrinkly' to me.

Is this standard for rump?

Rump is a working area of the cow, and therefore have more wrinkles especially if cooked longer.

sirlion is not a particular working area and thus a higher grade and less wrinkles

What the fuck...da fuck

This thread has made my day.

I'm in tears. I've gone from a miserable when I woke up to slightly confused when looking at the initial picture - is it a steak or is it a hand- to a slight chuckle to guffawing.

Brilliant!

Another vote for Mumsnet classics.

You 'orrible bunch of vipers 😂

I'm glad it made you all laugh. Who'd have thought my shit cooking would be nominated for classics. I'm touched by the gorillas hand
