Wagyu beef is amazing, but thanks to the cost I'll only buy it for VERY special occasions. I'm far more likely just to pick up some costco prime or even their choice for normal day to day cooking, and buy from local farmers/butchers when it comes for special, but not wagyu special events.

My girl and I both like our steaks rare, so cooking is a quick sear on each side then a nice rest before we dig in. I like to have a nice bold bottle of red when we're eating steak. Maybe a little side with roasted potatoes.

Reading this thread has me craving steak now, adding it to my shopping list for the weekend.

I decided to cook steak for the first time in my life tonight for dinner. I don't know how to cook so this should be interesting and I'm cooking steak because well I love steak. I am going to cook it well done because I enjoy my steak well done. Do you have any tips on how I should cook/prepare a well done steak?

Post your favorite recipes for steaks, how you like to cook your steak and what type of steak you like best.

Post pictures of the steak you cooked or ate at a restaurant. Also say what steakhouse you ate at or recommend. I am trying to hit up every steakhouse in the tri-state area

My favorite steak is rib eye but ny strip steak is second.

Mannnnnnnn

well done with a1 sauce though

 

[Nereyda Vuelve Por Dios]

great thread. when i want more of seasoning besides the basic salt and pepper i do this recipe:

I prefer sirloin so i let it marinate in some; water,salt, coffee, squeeze lemon juice, thyme and/or rosemary for about the whole day

then when ready to cook marinate with some salt and pepper then crush garlic. on the pan add butter then add the garlic. cook over abut 2-3 minutes on each side.

Recently, ive been adding a little  worchester sauce whe its still raw n the pan.

Medium rare is def. preferred.

 

[spot]

when i was a kid i used to get well done with the A1 but now that my tatses have matured i cant go back to that salty rubber

i like my steak so rare a good vet could revive it

yall dont know what you missing out on the pink is

forget the sizzlers and applebees go to a fancy chain like ruth chris and order a medium rare filet mignon

after that NWTS werd to drizzy

 

[mints]

Or even better skip the chains and find a place in your city that sells Prime and splurge. Get a cut of prime rare or as pink as you can take it and you'll never go back.
