Maybe you could carry a steak around.

Wikipedia doesn't have a disambiguation page for "steak", and I am really guessing you didn't mean a thick juicy cut of loin from premium Australian beef, done medium rare.

If I carried that around, I would be melting the snow.

I think P meant steak, as you can use a piece of meat to trigger conductive switches...
