We did buy steaks this weekend though. I'll report back soon. I actually opted for the heart shaped pizza. We did buy steaks this weekend though. I’ll report back soon.

Hit it with some butter and blue cheese when you are finished.

I assure you I want the best steak. But if I wanted the best without regard to cost, I'd go out to eat., where they <strong>broil</strong> their steaks. http://bbq.about.com/od/steaks/a/aa071407a.htm Have you tried broiling? @ZFarls – Haha.

It's the marbling that gives it its juiciness and wonderful flavor. If we eat at home, we opt for the grill and use spices on the meat. Otherwise, we choose a truly nice restaurant - Texas Roadhouse comes to mind. I've yet to get an inferior cut of meat from them. Hold the steak sauce!!

If you only eat is a few times a year and are gonna spend money on a prime cut, please go big. The difference between paying for gas for the grill and using the broiler can not factor into your decision if your gonna pay extra for a better cut of meat. I know its a personal finance site and everything but thats too damn personal, if you cant choose to afford a good way to cook it, dont buy it and keep eating the beans and rice. Keep up the good work, but weak post. With all do respect, please grill the steak.

Instead, you marinate it with sugar to caramelize and make it tender. You only pour salt and pepper right before you cook it. Marinating the steak with salt is wrong, it will make the steak tougher.
