Favorite Steak Cut

Recommended Posts

Quote

Skirt steak is a long, flat piece of beef cut from the diaphragm muscle. Extremely flavorful and streaked with fat, it makes it a juicy steak when properly cooked.

Skirt steak is also known as the “butcher steak” because it’s rarely found on meat counters—the butcher takes this one home.



Yeah...that's the one.

My favorite food over all is a Cuban style steak. Its typically sirloin cut about 1/4 " thick, seasoned with salt, garlic powder or fresh garlic, typically with sauteed onions on the side,and plain long grain white rice. Black Goya beans go great there as well but unless you live in Union City, NJ or Miami they are hard to come bye. I have a closet full of them. I always stock up when I go to Miami.
You know I had a can of Tuna and a banana for lunch. Now after opening this thread I feel urge to break my diet and eat steak.
If I could make a wish, I think I'd pass.
Can't think of anything I need
No cigarettes, no sleep, no light, no sound.
Nothing to eat, no books to read.

I had some of that steak last night. We went to a Cuban restaurant for dinner. I had a little bit of that, and something Lechon. A pork dish with rice. And black bean soup.

Yummy!


wow I thought the only Cuban in Maryland was my was a cousin of mine. I guess I managed to pick the place where there aren't any (Dallas/Fort Worth).
But if I recall when I lived in Upstate NY I would have to drive 60 miles south to Jersey to stock up as well.

My favorite stake cut is hard to narrow down. There are instances where different cuts are needed. Sharp piercing type stakes, to use on vampires instance ... Blunt end stakes such as a base ball bat. Good for it's intended purpose or smashing a windshield. Angled stakes to use as a wedge.

The mood I'm in today would best be served by a blunt end heavy stake.

a 16 oz. NY Strip, with a tablespoon of Tony Chachere's cajun seasoning. Grilled over white hot coals with just a handful of mesquite chips for 2 minutes per side, plate it and drool over the juices.

I had chicken breasts out for dinner but now I think im going to pull steaks out :D:D:D

BONUS:
who can tell me the difference between:
porterhouse and t-bone
ribeye and strip
filet mignon and tenderloin



Porterhouse is from back of loin (first 3 cuts or something like that?), t-bone is in front of it (and has smaller filet)
Ribeye is from the rib section, strip is from the loin. Ribey is also bigger and has more marbeling. mmm...:)Filet mignon is wrapped w/ bacon, tenderloin ain't.
