Oh man, I love F&J's. They're right by my office. Their burgers are incredible too.

I personally prefer Prime Rib - Medium Rare.
Delmonico = Ribeye

Weber Grill Restaurant. All Charcoal-Fired grills, no gas, even though they sell those too.
^ is about the worst restaurant I've ever been to, especially for steak.
I've had the best and worst steaks from the same restaurant... an Outback. Never been to a Weber Grill restaurant.

The point is, I want my steaks at least broiled, preferably over charcoal, not from a pan. I use Weber kettles here at home, and though I've had better at restaurants on occasion, mine are consistently good, which is critical to me when I've spent a lot of money on meat.

Some refer to the best part of the rib eye as the Delmonico.

It's kind of like how the French refer to only the small end (best portion) of the tenderloin as the Filet Mignon.

Porterhouse, very thick. Slow grilled over low heat (I'm talking 45 minutes to get it medium rare).

Either prime rib or ribeye for me.. medium rare
prime rib is tricky to cook though, so I usually get ribeye.

Rib eye medium rare (or rarer). I agree with Dr. Pizza. Filet is the most tender but rib eye has the best marbilizatin/fat/flavor. I don't know how anyone would answer New York Strip. What's the name of your steakhouse? Denny's?

so ribeye or filet

doesnt matter as long as it still moo's

in europe u can get steak in "blue"

basically they take it out of the fridge, sear it for a couple seconds on each side and serve it to you. The insides will still be cold.

I saw that on the Keg Steakhouse menu

"Blue Rare"
Cool, blue, all the way through.

I don't think I am brave enough to try that. I fear I am going to get sick after eating those raw meat.

EDIT: I would like to try a cut from a Wagyu
I would love to try some dry-aged steak or the Wagyu...havent seen it much in the US though.

Steak depends on what mood I'm in but usually a thick porterhouse or nice t-bone medium-rare to medium seasoned with my own blend of spices.

NY Strip ftw!!

my friends took me out to eat at Forbes Mill for my birthday. its ranked one of the country's best steakhouses by various magazines. they say it has the 'ultimate steak experience.' here's the Menu dont get the 'kobe brand' steaks though. they arent close to being as good as the real kobe steaks.
