Medium Rare
Salt, Pepper
Sometimes some Woerstisher (sp) sauce

Occasionally, I'll make a whiskey marinade, but that's only once every couple of years.

And, I don't care for ribeyes. They're too fatty for me. (yes, I know the more fat, the more flavor; I just hate the texture of fat on a steak)

inspired by the condiments thread. this should be interesting. i would add a poll, but that seems pointless, since everyone will be different.

Your threads are proving me and Mulli's point that there should be a Condiments Forum!!

What if I hate Condiments....and want to come to EE and read about Drunken fights and Things that suck. DAMMIT...condiments have taken over EE.

No grill, so you work with what you have.

Get a half pound filet, season lightly, salt and pepper each side. In a heavy bottomed pan, on medium high heat, add about a tablespoon of olive oil. Cook five minutes a side for pretty rare, maybe about 6 for medium rare. It will have an awesome crust, and perfectly done. (unless you screw it up)

In another smaller pan, mix equal parts real butter, and blue cheese. Heat over very low heat, and allow to melt together.

I agree it hurts my feelings that we don't have a Condiment forum.

I can see this splintering the board.

I'm gonna see if there is any interest, if people would want to join a board called Arizona Condiments Fans.

MESA! :thud:
I don't really care, as long as it's medium rare. I like a little "moo" left in my steak....

Medium well
Marinated with teriyaki sauce/garlic/salt/pepper

Sometimes I take some velveeta mixed with worchestshire sauce and let it melt on top of the steak

But in the days that I did eat cow, I only liked my steak well done. Bleeding flesh is pretty gross.

Light Creole seasoning, heavy on the course ground black pepper, and crushed red pepper seeds. Grill on medium high heat for 3-3 1/2 minutes a side (2” thick steak). Steak should be cool in the middle still. If it is cooked all the way through give it to the dogs and start over.

Diamond cut the outside, do not marinade. Salt and pepper the outside and rub it in. Sometimes rub some butter on the outside too. Use a south dakota steak and chop rub on at the last. Cook over medium heat on middle rack for longer than most (keep its juices in and keep it tender). Only flip once each side.

Then I fire it up high and drop it to the bottom rack to finalize the outside and get the edges a bit of char.

Serve medium to med-rare (I like it more red than my wife).

I prefer porterhouse steaks.

If you cook a flank steak in a broiler pan for a few hours, you can make it super damn tender.

My sister in-law's in-laws cook the baddest ass flank steak I've ever had. I've been trying to replicate it but have not done so yet...I get them ok, but they could serve their stuff in a Maestros or something.
