My favorite is ribeye because it is more flavorful and in my opinion all meats with the bone taste better than without. However, I don't think many ladies favor the ribeye, they prefer fillets. I also love porterhouse and find it to be the perfect steak for a date at my home. Prepare a nice steak dinner by grilling porterhouse with a complementary red wine. Cut the tenderloin off for the lady and you eat the strip steak with bone. Win win combo. They love the effort and consideration for the more tender part of the porterhouse.

I prefer Porterhouse, yes the the biggest tenderloin possible. I get the store butcher to cut it special, 3/4 to an inch thick. I like rare, but not cold in the middle. Visit the sauces thread because there are a million hot sauce you can use plus just salt and pepper.

Philly cheese steak with ribeye. Tony Luke does a cheese steak with povolone cheese and broccoli rabe. Melts in the mouth good.
I grew up eating hamburger helper. Any, and I mean any steak I eat is enjoyable.

Ribeye is my favorite followed by filet Mignon. Porterhouses are also good. I marinade the Ribeyes and Porterhouses. Like to experiment with different marinades. I usually pick up a pack of four filets at Costco. They have two different cuts. Ribeyes and Porterhouses I get at shoprite. Lately, shoprite has had extra thick cuts. Don’t even have to ask the butcher. The ribeyes are thick enough to be prime rib.

In the days when I was eating steak, never had it at home. Preferred it at a good steakhouse.

There was DelFrisco's in Manhattan.

Shula's in Philly.

Loved Pete Lorenzo's in Trenton.

Go on to Amazon and buy a Sous Vide. You put the steak in a sealed bag, cook in temperature controlled water for an hour, then flash fry on grill or cast iron pan. Excellent every time.
Or watch AltonBrownfor how to spud vide with a Dutch oven a Lexan container and a frying

if you’re cutting the Porterhouse thick, (and have a wood or charcoal grill), go a little thicker and try a Bistecca Fiorentino preparation. When it’s authentic, it’s F-omg awesome... and I’m not Italian.

Go to Reading Terminal, Martin’s, they will cut to order, and have great quality. Of course, that is when everything was “normal”.

They and almost all of the market were open as normal on Friday when I stopped in RTM. Boy I miss Harry Ochs, He would cut almost everything to order for me.

Ribeye on the bone nice and thick cooked medium with a nice bottle of Cabernet. My one rule is always get laid prior to eating a thick steak and drinking. My dick never works after a full belly of beef

Back in the day, I used to call it "shell steak" and I felt it was the best cut for taste.
Butcher terminology. at least regionally in metro NY/NJ. The intact piece of meat is called a Shell Strip. If the meat is taken off the bone, you get the NY Strip and the Tenderloin (Filet Mignon).

A bone-in NY Strip Steak is called a Shell Steak. It only has meat on one side of the bone. The tenderloin is removed.

If steaks are cut with the bone intact and with meat on both sides of the bone, it called either a T-Bone or a Porterhouse. There is a distinction between the two. The T-Bone is cut from the part closer to the front of the animal, where the tenderloin is not as wide (first 8-10 inches). As you move towards the rear, the tenderloin gets bigger, and the cut is then called a Porterhouse.

Further, there are only three ways that steak can be prepared: Rare, Medium Rare, and Burnt (which is everything else). There is a restaurant in the Phoenix, AZ area that, if you order your steak well done, they actually bring you a boot on a plate!

Also buy a protein shake every morning. They went from 1.99 to 2.99. This week 1.69. I'm gonna buy a couple cases because prices are rising everywhere.

Ribeye and beer battered onion rings. For the steak, season it a few hours ahead and make sure it's at room temperature before you cook it. Use a meat thermometer and take it off about 5 degrees before your ideal temp. Cast iron pan for frying the onion rings or you can get a counter-top deep fryer will get them extra crispy.

I always go with top sirloin. I love a ribeye but the I will sub total amount of beef marinated and seasoned well over the natural fat flavoring of the ribeye. Ounces of beef are my thing lol. You can add flavor, can't add the meat part. haha.

Also go with a nice cheap flank stank marinated and cook meduim rare to make fajitas. Just put a pan of peppers and onion on the grill with the cut of meat and season accordingly. Damn i'm hungry now.
