I’ve always believed that a good steak stands on its own without any kind of sauce, A1, Worcestershire, Ketchup, Au Jus, Man. Whatever. Pause.
Sauces always seemed to be a replacement for the flavor of the steak to me. Or an attempt to put the juicyness back into an otherwise overcooked steak.
EDIT: burgers, though? I mess with A1 on a burger. That’s that good stuff. Steak is just on a different level, nahmean?
Talking about steak drove me to [media=youtube]wbEJ4E9iVK0"[/media] and this comment in response lol.
my great-great-aunt used to take ground beef straight from the pack and make sandwiches,she’s about to turn 97. koreans eat beef raw as well. a little blood never hurt anybody.
if i’m cooking steak at home, i’m taking it medium-well bcuz it’s usually a really thin cut and i don’t have an oven to evenly cook it any other way but at a restaurant i’m getting it medium.
steak sauce + mashed potatoes = win
except for the people who got parasites and shit from eating unclean meat
if the meat you got was clean and the animal healthy it’s not really that dangerous. but the risk, while pretty small, is not worth it, so i’ll continue to cook my food like a civilized human being
I’ve eaten beef sushi before… pretty disgusting.
unless you’re talking about wild game or some shit then you’re good. like people are always so worried about things like trichinosis and other rare parasites, when in reality you have a better chance of being struck by lightning twice than catching some shit like that.
the only food i’m anal about cooking is poultry bcuz some undercooked chicken will give you the runs damn near immediately.
You can get a great Steak Cut for a fraction of the price at that Peter Lugers place from a butcher. I don’t care how good your steak is that price is a rip.
Edit: Then again i know a shit load of people who couldn’t cook a hot dog so i guess they need to pay out the ass for someone to make them a good steak. Their lazy loss.
yeah really. $100 for two people at a fancy steakhouse is not that expensive. He’s complaining about an $80 steak that serves two people? nigga please. wtf do you think this is, Applebees?
also, that bacon looked amazing.
ahahaha
Class got canceled today due to power outage, and the homework that is due tomorrow was done last night. So I’m very happy that I don’t have to do shit today besides chill in my basketball shorts and play video games.
I thought you should be the most worried about pork. Unless you want to feed some tapeworms.
Meh. I wanna see how gret they dry age that beef. I heard claims they do it the best in the world. Shit I fire up some mean shit myself, but… an $80 steak is till damn cheap. I would expect at least $115+ for their top cuts.
damn all this fuckin steak talk is really making me regret my 2 hot dog dinner
I had hot dogs too!
We’re wiener buddies!
I regret nothing.
sweet i had cheese and ketchup (catsup?) on mine yes i am still a 7 year old girl ketchupin up my hot dogz
I’ve been having bratwurst a lot lately so I opted to buy some sea food sausages. Never had 'em. Wish me luck, they’re cooking right now.
fuckin this, a1 and mashed potatoes is instant awesome
and yeah i ate at Ruth’s Chris and it was about 100 for each of us (two people), it tasted good but wasn’t worth the money, i’m just as happy getting a nice cut of steak from a butcher and cooking it myself at home for a tiny fraction of the cost.
if you got the money to burn indulge yourself, but i got better things to spend money on
I usually put ketchup and mustard on.
I put onions on my hot dog for the first time today, it made me feel like a big boy.
Edi: I swear I’ve said this in another lounge, but,
HP>A1
Sheeeeit,
A-1 for life, man. That stuff is magic. You could probably make a pile of snot taste good by putting a little A-1 on it.
*Leslie Marshall on O’Reilly’s show right now… Liberal-Leslie would get BONEDDDDDDD? with the quickness. She seems a bit on the butch side (Carpet-Bagger?, perhaps?) but I don’t care. She could get the meat anytime, any place.
Back on point… it is rare that I am out of A-1 at home. It has to be there all the time.
Knight’s Contract— yeah, there’s also the QTEs. That basically killed the game for me. It went from a “perhaps at $20” buy to a just a 5 or 10-dollar buy at the most. QTEs are apparently at the end of EVERY boss fight. Yeah, fuck that.
Fuck you assholes, now I’m forced to go buy a slab of meat to cook tonight because I am now obsessed with steak. I hope you’re all happy.
Good steak requires no sauce and must not be cooked more than medium rare. You want to taste the beef, not the sauce. Otherwise if you’re going to pour sauce on it and cook it until the steak taste is gone, then there’s no point to having a good cut of beef, just get any old slab of meat.
I think the differences in opinion regarding steak often just come down to that. There’s no problem with people wanting to have well done or medium cooked steak. It’s just that if you have a nice cut of meat, then you’re wasting it by cooking it that much.
It’s like mixing XO Cognac with Coke or spending your time shopping with a girl that you are not having sex with. It’s just a damn waste.
the thing is you have the law of diminishing returns, you spend more and more for less and less quality improvement, at some point you’re just spending money so you can fit in with the other rich guys, then to justify your stupid behavior you try and act like you got something way more godlike than you really did
this behavior has been shown time and time again in trick studies and stuff, making rich people ooh and ahh over shit that was actually cheap as hell and prepared by someone who worked at mcdonalds.
also steak sauce and steak go together really well, a good steak tastes good on its own, but it tastes even better when it has the flavoring of steak sauce. you don’t need to slather that shit in it, but neither do you have to avoid it completely to force yourself to only enjoy one flavor by itself.
this is just a matter of opinion though, some people like their hot dogs straight out of the packet, some boil 'em, some microwave them (if you do this you need to burn in hell though) and others stick them on a fork and cook them over the oven like a little fire.
