I pledge to post more pictures of this STEAK

[Slacks 6819]

Damnit. It's midnight and I want a steak.

[dcbc 14464]

Nice little family dinner

[956 Worldwide 34692]

Prime strips and one of the best sauces I’ve made— caramelized onion blue cheese. 
 

[solamente73 1132]

Family fillets.  My 8 and 10 year old boys have NO IDEA how good they have it.  As usual, with a hint of mesquite.

I will never understand how people have room for a loaded baker with a steak.

But I KNOW I am the minority here.

Corn fed Beef.

Hangar steaks and a chimichurri.

[RMac5 1551]

Love hangar steak, those look perfect. I have a pretty good source but they can be hard to find. Where did you find em?

I have a butcher I go to, but you need to get there on the early side or they run out. 

[RMac5 1551]

Yeah me too, we have a local processing house but like you said, they do run out. It’s such a great cut of meat.

Yeah, there’s only one per cow that you can cut it the two lobes. One of my absolute favorites, and while not cheap they are still about a third less than ribeye and a quarter less than a strip.  
 

They go really well with the chimichurri.  In Europe that’s what you get as a bistro steak with frites although I rarely have the energy to grill and do fries. 

[solamente73 1132]

Tried a new butcher shop that recently opened up nearby.  Quality meats at local grocery prices.  Pre-made sides were spot-on.  Fillets for the wife and kids, and they were excellent.  The prime strip was very good but seemed to equate to what I can get at my favorite grocery butcher counter - but that’s OK.  Looking forward to supporting this place.

OutSTANDING!

[956 Worldwide 34692]

Costco prime ribeye, horseradish garlic butter and a loaded spud. Yup.

[SurlyBDR 22760]

Rain snuffed my idea of a normal charcoal grill-cooked steak tonight, so I reverted to the old method of oven first and then pan searing.

Is that a steak for just you or for a family?  We got invited over to a colleague’s home some years ago.  My wife called his wife to see if there was anything we could bring. “ No, Jim’s cooking steak!”  We got there and it was four adults and two teenage boys.  
 

his wife told him it was time to put the steak on.  He came out to the patio with a single strip about that size. When she said steak she meant one fucking steak.  This dude made probably $250k in the early 00’s.  We got like three slices each.  A plain salad and some instant mashed taters.  
 

we had to stop and pick up burgers on the way home. B

Myself and 2 children. 1.15lbs of prime from HEB, and I have a tiny bit left. It was about 1 3/4" cut.

We have some good friends, who, despite plenty of other great qualities, do this regularly.  My wife and I and our two kids go to their place.  They have 3 boys.  5 strips go on.  Maybe two get sliced up for nine people, and 2 or 3 remaining strips go into the fridge.  I need to have them over again and cook strips for everyone to model good behavior.

next time show up with extra steaks and tell them those are for you since they never grill enough of them. that'll teach them

[956 Worldwide 34692]

Some of ya’ll have some psycho friends.  If I don’t want to feed everyone steak, I invite you over for chicken or burgers. 
 

If I have preteens or younger kids coming over I will cut a strip in half or buy some sirloins for them kids though. I do that for my own kids too.

Ugh. I’m making that for me tonight.  Had one left from a (presumably non psycho) gathering Friday night.  Indirect heat then sear then finish in oven / smoker to medium rare minus.  Round 1 indirect heat

Round 2 searing

Biding time and sipping whiskey so dinner will be ready around kickoff

Just in time for kickoff

I have serious doubts about many of you on what constitutes prime and a proper cook on a steak. Thankfully, a few have it figured out. I’ve stopped eating at a steakhouse touting perfect and overpriced steak as it’s only overpriced. This isn’t rocket science. Pick good meat. Right cook. Then you don’t need Pappas.  And if you aren’t reverse searing, you aren’t honoring your steak. 

[Bert Orange 1120]

Also, finish your damn meat with some fine flake salt for fuck’s sake. It’s the simple shit that elevates.

I dont spend my own money at a steakhouse if I can possibly avoid it.

Speaking of not spending money at a restaurant, has anyone been to the Leroy and Lewis steak night?  Looks awesome from the Texas Monthly article.

There are exceptions to the rule… that’s one I’d make, at least once.
