Actually, I was planning on staying a vegetarian, but IF I now decided to go back to eating meat I'd start with a nice sparerib or meat chop 
They were my favorites when I still ate meat, 19 years ago

Go for a Sous Vide rump steak in pepper sauce!
Dauphinoise potatoes, roast tomatoes, olive bread.
Trust me on this ... you'll never eat aubergines again!

I'd agree with all of that apart from the pepper sauce.
54C for 40 mins followed by MapGas blowtorch to sear....
Sorry, getting of topic

Think of it as "extreme seasoning"!
It does enhance the flavour, check out "steak au poivre" - I use a small amount of brandy to deglase the searing pan, then beef stock, onion powder, and cream to finish the sauce. If you crust the steak with pepper and garlic before it goes in the bag, then add all the meat juices to the sauce at the end it is a thing of gastronomic beauty.

Now look what you've done, I've drooled all over my keyboard.
You've persuaded me to have another go with steak au poivre - I'd given it up since switching to sous-vide because the steak was so good it didn't seem to need or want spicy sauces.
So, Saturday dinner is lined up then

How come most of us guys are chefs instead of coders ? XD

"As well as" I suspect, rather than "instead of".
Possibly because we like things right? Not sure...

Sure, sure, we are indeed more both that only one
Good point ...

Each to their own, and I hope the B12 does the trick for you.
But if I had the choice between a bacon butty and an injection, well....

It's not really a choice, I need those injections either way... 
They're nasty ones too, I've felt the sting for hours

No, I'm not going to blast veganism and tell you to eat a liver sausage.
There are no animals nor plants that are able to synthesize vitamin B12, only bacteria (and archaea what ever that is).
The growing vitamin B12 deficiency in the western world (yes, India with it's large vegetarian population isn't having this deficit at the same level) is probably because of our increasingly sterile environment.
So dump the shots, eat a spoon of dirt instead.
Much less of a joke than originally intended.

I had the same problem, but when I got the B12 shots it made my skin really bad for a while (until my body got "used to it" or something), or at least that's what I blame because it coincided and nothing else changed that might cause it. No change for you?

Not after one shot... 
I'll let you know after the 10th.

It's faster than that. You'll notice by next week, probably earlier now that you're paying attention.

Ah.
So it is hereinafter to be known as "The Dutch Lurgy".
It probably comes from eating too much mashed potato with vegetables mixed into it.
Or sandwiches with just one (thin) slice of cheese.
Or bowls of cold, watery custard, and calling it pudding.

Maybe it's the oliebollen or the hagelslag.

Vla. More watery than school-dinner custard.
The first time I encountered it was when I invited some Dutch colleagues over for a meal. They said that they would bring the dessert.
So I fork out around EUR 150 (it was guilders, at the time -- and that doesn't include drinks), and they turn up with a 65-cent carton of vla.
Fortunately, we had some plain chocolate cake, so I cut a few slabs of that, smothered it with the vla, and threw it, covered, into the microwave for five minutes at 50%, which turned it into a "rustic" but perfectly palatable dessert.
They said it was too rich for their tastes.
I never invited them again.

Oliebollen? 
Essentially, they're fried bread in doughnuts' clothing.
