    Any pick is ribeye usually. Prefer too cook at home usually aim for medium rare. I honestly don't order steaks at most places anymore because I've been disappointed on a steak that isn't good also learned to order rare to get medium rare because if I order what I want it's overcooked (talking a normal sit down restaurant not a nice steak house). Now if I'm at a nicer restaurant I'll order a steak unfortunately those are usually $50 and up. I like Perry, Vic's, ruths etc. I can't reproduce what they do at home but think I'm just bit buying the right meat.They know how to cook them and if you look at the selection of meat the quality is very visible as well as aged. Worth the money every time to me. Usually order rare at a place like that

      What I will say is be it a sirloin, ribeye, or filet if it is cooked past medium rare it is over cooked
      What ever cut of steak, if it is a grass fed Angus/Wagyu cross beef that is hung and aged for a good time and then packaged it will beat anything in a restaurant or one you can buy in a store and you cook it to your likes!
      Picking up a side of Angus/Wagyu grass fed cross the last of May!

        Find it hard to beat filet at home, rubbed with Fiesta Steak seasoning, noted above, plus coarse ground pepper, and will add some olive oil and Lea and Perrins Worcestershire sauce in a brief marinade (15 minutes). Grill hot rare to medium rare, let rest for 3 minutes. Sirloin is tasty done this same way, but less reliable from a gristle standpoint -- also less tender.

        Usually don't bother to try steak in restaurants because it doesn't match what I can do at home except for very high-end places like Perry's or Austin Land and Cattle.

          My Wife likes filets. I like rib-eyes. I just do not care for the taste of filets as much as I do a good rib-eye.

                  If you put Worcestershire sauce on a good steak at anytime, you don't get to make that 2nd statement.

                    Somewhat fair criticism, but only use a little, which oil dilutes. Feel it compliments meat flavor in small doses with a little sweetness and color in addition to acting as a binder for the dry rub and pepper.

                    Each their own.

                      Pittsburg rare for me (chared on the outside, still purple in the middle) with salt, pepper, and garlic powered on a fatty ribeye all day long. My favorite steak

                        Yep--and t-bone as well. Wife gets the filet and I get the strip. No more than medium rare though.

                          Be careful when you wife or girlfriend starts "trying something new."

He explains that he prefers not to prepare steaks well-done because it does not allow him to highlight the quality of their beef, and highly recommends medium-well unless the guest has dietary restrictions. He says many well-done steak orders are sent back because they’re tough (well no ****?).

                            New York strip, top sirloin, or a filet for me please, medium-rare.
                            Curious where your BIN works. I’d love to pay him a visit!

                              This bugs the hell outa me. And I’ve had it happen in nice steakhouses too. Seems to happen more often when the rest of the table orders more welldone steaks. At Taste of Texas once the whole table ordered medium+ except my wife and I. She asked for medium rare and I went rare. Both our steaks came close to medium.

                              Had it happen at other nice steakhouses too.
