[Steak, chips, peppercorn sauce - what more do you need?][1]
Steak from hand-picked Aberdeen Angus cross Limousin cattle star at Alston Bar and Beef.

Keen readers of the 5pm Dining blog may remember that we told you all about the new Alston Bar & Beef which officially opened under Glasgow’s Central Station last week.

We blogged about it here, should you need to refresh your memory.

Win a steak dinner

Thanks to the generosity of the Alston Bar & Beef, two lucky 5pm Dining blog readers can try the new venue for themselves.

We’re running a fantastic competition to win a sharing platter or Porterhouse steak for two at Glasgow’s newest steak and gin venue.

Alston Bar & Beef offer over ten different cuts of beef on their menu and the winner of the competition will have the choice of either a Porterhouse steak or the assiette of beef.

Dry-aged for 35 days

The Porterhouse comes in a range of sizes to suit every appetite and is the biggest steak on this comprehensive meat lovers’ menu.

Dry-aged for 35 days, the Porterhouse is a hand-picked Aberdeen Angus cross Limousin Scotch beef from accredited farms in Ayrshire, East Lothian & Aberdeenshire.

It is cooked to perfection in the specialist Montague oven, ensuring all the flavours are sealed in.

The assiette of steak includes gourmet cuts of 40-day dry-aged flank, hanger and iron steaks. Weighing in at an impressive 700g, this truly is a plate for steak lovers. Each of the cuts offer a different texture and flavour, and all have been cooked to perfection.

The prize also includes a bottle of wine to share.
