Café owner cooks steak in his car
You know it’s an official heatwave when you can cook a steak in a car.
That’s what one Victorian cafe owner demonstrated when he just tried to see how fast a steak would cook in a hot car. The aspiring chef posted the experiment on Facebook.
“With this heatwave please remember never to leave children, elderly or animals in the car,” the post continued.
“Always check on elderly neighbours, ensure your pets have a way to keep cool and cool drinking water.”
Despite the mercury hitting 45.8C in Mildura, some were sceptical.
“I’m sorry I’m calling bulls**t. A car left IN THE SUN will get up to about 60 to 70 degrees C inside. In the shade? Nope. Not going to get ‘well done’,” one Facebook user said.
However, the cafe owner said he was just as shocked at the result.
“I also believe we’re straying from my initial reason for doing such a thing, I wanted to remind people how dangerous this heat can be and that as a community we should be looking out for one another.”
