The boys and husband enjoyed it very much: we had it with rice and roasted red peppers, wilted cucumbers in vinegar and sugar, and cantaloupe.

Actually, I let chicken or beef or pork partially thaw until it's at the point that it's bendable and easy to slice, but still firm enough not to be squishy. I will definitely remember that story. And I believe that a very sharp knife is more dangerous. You and my husband agree on the other side.
