Wow, I thought my original reply went to Sugar but I am glad it didn't. I was embarroussed to admit my fear of cooking the meet. I have 3 kids, 7, 9 and 11 and I always was nervous doing this, which I still haven't yet, because didn't want them to get sick. I have received tips such as if I am that nervous, put a lil water in then cook the meet that way. I suppose I should just get over my fear and getter done? So, If I cook on medium, how long should that take until its done? Thanks to everyone for their input.
