I was wondering if you should you weigh your meat before or after cooking?

    Before. Meat weights (steaks, hamburgers, etc.) are always precooked weights.

    It is because you cook the water out of it. =)

    Whew! I figured it was, but I had one of those paranoid "OMG I've been eating over" moments! :laugh:
