View Full Version : Steak
Title says it all. What kind of steak do you like, how do you like it seasoned, and cooked?
I just picked up a fairly lean (i only had to trim a little bit of fat) New York Strip from the local mart. I seasoned it with garlic, pepper, and sea salt, and fried it in oil olive until about medium. I cooked some broccoli along side of it and had a great dinner. I really can't justify spending 5.50 at subway anymore when I can eat such a meal for around $6.

Steak ought to be grilled, or seared if you can't grill it. Preferably semi-lean(ya, that's real specific, I know). Paprika, garlic, cumin. Perhaps melted pepper jack cheese depending on my mood.

I tenderize them, poking them full of tiny holes with a fork. Then I whip up a marinade (ingredients vary depending on my mood) and let that soak in overnight. I grill my steaks, and prefer them medium rare, pink but not oozing.
My favorite cut is a filet mignon, smothered with grilled mushrooms in a butter/garlic/cognac sauce and served with a baked potato (butter, sour cream and chives), steamed broccoli (fresh-squeezed lemon), ranch beans (spicy!), and a green salad (various baby greens, mixed with wine-soaked currants, roasted hazelnut slices, and gorgonzola cheese, topped with raspberry vinaigrette). Serve with a good cabernet sauvignon, and fresh spring water.
A rich-flavored ice cream for dessert of course, complimented by a nice espresso with lemon or cappuccino. If you're going to be decadent, might as well go all out.

I don't know much about cuts of steak, but I am working on my man-ucation. As to how cooked it needs to be? Medium-rare, probably leaning a bit towards medium. Definitely not oozing or "blue." Seasonings can be great. My favorite (for kebabs of steak) was garlic, tamari sauce, ginger and possibly onions or a few other small things. Let that soak in overnight and you have a meal! I have yet to try it on a full-sized steak, but perhaps someday I will. Otherwise I prefer relatively limited seasoning as a good steak should be tasted, not soaked in a sauce until you taste only sauce.

Very. Was a staple back in the '80s whilst rockin' on the road in Nevada. The casinos sold steak and eggs as an early bird special (not long after we were done working for the night) for $2.95, great for a poor musician's budget.
Reverend Joe and Rasoforos are going to show up tell you how not to do it.
The perfect steak is barely alive. Thick cut, 250 grams, rub with oil, 2 minutes on each side, pepper and salt, let it rest in tinfoil for a minute.
perfection, the bleu steak from heaven. A good steak needs nothing more.
Straight form the grill: T-bone, medium, with garlic butter, grilled white bread & some tomato salad....one of my best liked dishes!
Did anybody ever have an Assado in Argentinia? I read about it....uh...it is supposed to be BBQ heaven for beef eaters!

Had ostrich steak the other night, which tastes pretty much like beef. Made it the way my mother and grandmother usually make it: a heap of onions, mushrooms, a tomato and garlic fried in butter, added some spices, a goulash stock cube with a bit of water, and cream. Season the steak and sear it seperately before adding it to the sauce-pan to soak up the juice. Dip with bread. Mmmmmm.

Almost medium rare but not quite so. A dash of a very awesome (and secret) Seasoning found only in some stores in Montana, and then you too can have perhaps the best tasting steak ever.

My usual steak is a Ribeye (or Sirloin if I can't get the former) with minimal fat, but somewhat well marbled.
Pan fry on medium-high for a little while in a tiny bit of oil and rice wine. Then add mushrooms and onions (and sometimes beans) and continue to medium until medium-well or well done.
Never had a problem with chewing these while my dad's medium-rare/medium usually are indigestable and not chewable at all.

NY/KC/whatever strip is the cut I prefer, very thick cut, with ample fat left around the edges. Rub lightly with oil, apply salt to your taste, and sear both sides 2-3 minutes in a very hot pan. Rest it a minute or two, cut away the fat and enjoy.
At a restaurant I order 'medium rare' but I think 'warm' is a better description. The center should be a little warmer than your mouth to bring out the best flavor of the blood and juices, if it's cold you're losing some of the taste. Honestly, though, I don't really care if it's warm because it was just cut from the cow or because it was just run across a grill.

Dammitall Ice, I'm going to move in to your place and start mooching off you.
I prefer fillet, HATE fat/grissle, and don't want to deal with bones at all. Medium rare. IF it's going to be seasoned, maybe some Montreal steak seasoning, or this very nice mushroom/wine based sauce mom makes every Xmas. Give me some scalloped potatoes or garlic mashed on the side, and some green beans with bacon.
Edit - This needs to be a poll.

you know whats awesome? at least for me? dont eat your fill during the meal, or wait a few hours after the meal ends.after everyone is done eating, you take the room temprature steak leftovers, stash them in the fridge. if you get hungry again, eat them as a snack. best when eaten within 3-4 hours after the meal (provided it was in the firidge. if it was left out for more than an hour, dont eat it), otherwise it gets too cold.
am i the only one who thinks its delicious?

Heh, I don't often get hungry after a hearty steak meal because I eat so much during the meal.
I stash any leftovers in the fridge. Later when I'm hungry I'll slice off some thin strips, cook up some Sapporo Ichiban ramen, add the steak slices, an egg, fresh spinach, and sliced fishcake if I have some (a Japanese thing) and voila, a fast yummy bowl of noodles.
Or I'll make steak sandwiches with lettuce, tomato and dijon mustard on rye or sourdough.

Thick cut (at least 1.5 inches) Ribeye/Delmonico or Porterhouse. Rub with melted butter and oil (just a little), add salt and pepper to taste, grill to med-rare (if cooking indoors use your broiler, or if you pan-sear, add a little dab of worcestershire sauce to deglaze, saute some onions and red bell peppers in the leftover fat and burnt on juices).

So how many students and bachelors have handy-dandy George Foreman counter-top grills or the like upon which to grill up said carnivore's ambrosia? Once I got one, my consumption of all things grill-able more than tripled, and ramen consumption declined (a little).
If you don't have one and are pan-frying, etc., you might want to consider one. They're marvelous if you're cooking for one or two, don't have a lot of time, but enjoy substantial hot meals and minimal mess to clean up.

I had one when I was still living with my dad. The second that I'm not living in a dorm room for most of my time, I'm getting one myself. Its possibly the most useful cooking tool for any carnivore such as myself who lack a proper grill.

My oven has a built-in grill but I never quite figured out how to use it vs why I shouldn't just use the oven fan.
$20 ribeye sounds about what a small-medium sized steak goes for at the grocery stores in London (~8 GBP), so if you get a medium sized one or just two of the above, you are already over the $20 mark :grin:

Reverend Joe and Rasoforos are going to show up tell you how not to do it.
The perfect steak is barely alive. Thick cut, 250 grams, rub with oil, 2 minutes on each side, pepper and salt, let it rest in tinfoil for a minute.
perfection, the bleu steak from heaven. A good steak needs nothing more.
Dude, I didn't even have a chance to post, you sick, food poisoning-loving bastard! Eugh! :clown:
But yeah, apparently I am going to show you NOT how to do it: a T-bone, burnt all to ******* hell. If the outer edges aren't crunchy and slightly bitter from being overcooked, it ain't done yet.
But seriously, that's just my taste. One thing I will insist on, whether you prefer your meat tender or crunchy, is that you MUST have a T-Bone. And that's one point I will criticize you on, Frag, because the bone actually imbues the rest of the beef with a uniquely delicious flavor, and if you cook it too fast you miss out on that flavor. It's really a wonderful experience, and I guarantee your bleugh steak doesn't come anywhere close.
On the side? Tater salad/fried taters/both, baked beans and biscuits. Only the best.
Edit: and just for the record, I really do hate steak that is even slightly undercooked, and that includes pink steak. The last several times I had rare steak it made me gag. No joke. It's grotesquely squishy and tasteless. Well, at least aside form the metallic taste of blood. So, basically, in my opinion if you really want a rare steak you may as well soak a sponge in mercury and chew on that for a while.
T-Bone must be slowcooked, but only because the meat isn't very tender, needs extra treatment. A proper cut of quality beef isn't squishy, it's soft, if you have to chew it you have been doing it wrong.
Reverend Joe
07-28-2009, 17:30
T-Bone must be slowcooked, but only because the meat isn't very tender, needs extra treatment.
Yeah, but you still get the benefit of the bone flavor. As a comparison, if you just cook a filet mignon on its own it tastes bland.
A proper cut of quality beef isn't squishy, it's soft, if you have to chew it you have been doing it wrong.
Okay, I can see that being good; apparently I've never had a steak from a real cook. But I still feel queasy about eating beef sushi... something about it seems wrong.

au jus on the side, with shiitake mushrooms and brussels sprouts (roasted in the rareau jus), and a small bowl of linguine on the side of the serving platter.
Bread, butter, finely-chopped garlic and mashed horseradish complete the presentation. Oh, and a 24-ounce Sapporo beer.

not that I particularly have anything against people who enjoy charring things to a crisp (my grandfather used to purposely burn toast and dip it in coffee :dizzy2:)

Because I prefer my meat nice and thick.
Pink meat is for people who can't handle the black meat.
Everybody knows that if you can handle black meat you got to love pink.
Hmmm that wasn't about steak anymore.

Well i dont think there is nothing wrong with rare meat if it is in a form that can be eaten easily. For example, i love to eat meatball dough rare. Basically it has minced meat, onion, breadcrums and egg with spices. That stuff is delicious.:2thumbsup:

Re Lutefisk, I had that at a buffet over christmas at a Swedish restaurant. Was actually pretty tame, tho my Finnish friend warned me of Lutefisk.
Maybe its just Scandinavians wanting to scare people off this tasty fish.
