I was watching a show on the travel channel last night about great steak places. Where do you go when you want a great steak? Im not talking chilis or Applebees which suck by the way for steak alteast. Texas roadhouse isnt bad nor outback but I want bigger and better. ---

Hey, I’ll tell you what. You can get a good look at a butcher’s ass by sticking your head up there. But, wouldn’t you rather to take his word for it? No, what I mean is, you can get a good look at a T-bone by sticking your head up a butcher’s ass… No, wait. It’s gotta be your bull. Harry’s Harbor has really good fresh steaks. ---

but you dont dry age your steak, not many places do. It makes a big difference in the tenderness and flavor of a good cut. ---

^ The restaurant has nothing to do with that process, it is all about the supplier and where the meat comes from. I used to buy Prime Tenderloins 50 at a time for Oak Hill, and it was probably the best meat that I ever had. They do not deal direct however. You have to be a large scale user to purchase ☹ ---

NO marinade makes a bad steak acceptable. A good steak should have some salt, pepper and grill marks. If you really want to dress it, just add some butter after cooking. No steak sauce marinade BS. ---

a little spice rub is the only thing I put on my steaks. Marinade is for chicken, not for steak. ---
