Maybe cut the steak up completely in pieces before you ever start eating. Small pieces.

Assuming that speed is key, that's definetly a great idea.

Personally, I think it is. I can wolf down a lot of food if I tear into it like we used to in basic training when the drills would only give you a few seconds to eat a whole meal. But I've never chewed my food really good my whole life. I can swallow big chunks of meat after I've only chewed it three or four times.

Do you have to eat the whole meal or just the steak? The carbs (from the potato) are tricky. Carbs will give you a full feeling very quickly (as compared to protein) because carbs are sugar. It takes the body longer to get into that protein. If you have to eat the potato too, I'd save that and the roll for next to last (salad last because it is easy to eat even if you're full- there's nothing too it really but roughage).

From the above site (info from the head chef):

"First of all, you better cut your meat with the grain -- makes it more tender and less chewy," he said, poking at the big sirloin with a grill fork and tossing steak seasoning on it. "You better eat your potato and all that small stuff first. Don't drink no water. Just fills you up. And better eat fast, man."
