Steaks: Sauce or No Sauce

Recommended Posts

I have come around on the skirt steak as well. I think others have too, the price has gone up.

Outside of a prime, bone-in ribeye - skirt is my 2nd favorite cut of meat.

A friend tonight spent yesterday prepping, overnight smoking a brisket, pork shoulder and bacon wrapped goose for a community group we had helped. In planning someone asked if we need sauce and somewhat jokingly he responded only if you want to offend the cook. It was perfectly seasoned and delicious.

 

It's unfortunate how many utilized the bottle of kc masterpiece, probably many without giving it a chance sans the sauce.

 

:(

Kind of spinning off into a condiment thread but, I find ketchup to be the perfect Accompaniment to a cold meatloaf sandwich on White Bread. Fantastic.

Or a good medium rare prime aged ribeye.

Horseradish / Worcesteshire

Toss in a little ketchup, lemon juice and Louisiana hot sauce - and we've got the makings for some damn good shrimp too.

No love for mustard or salsa?

Do people eat mustard on their steaks? :unsure:

 

I do enjoy the mustard component to Steak Diane, and I really enjoy a good spicy salsa verde on a cut of meat now and then too.

:blink:

 

I guess you could make an argument for mustard. If you normally put something on a burger you could put it on a steak :dunno:

 

But salsa? That sounds like something only messicans would do

Salsa is now the number one condiment in this country.

Which is pretty amazing... White America has ruined salsa in this country... They've basically turned it into a bottle of liquid salad - the stuff in the stores is horrible.

So skirt steak is a real thing? I always though it was the opposite of tube steak. :doh:

Different strokes as they say - but never saw the allure with this... It's a painstaking chore to make, and in the end you basically have a tenderloin stuffed inside a pastry coated with pate. Not very appetizing at all, least not to me.

Got it. But it does look good

I've always had it as an appetizer at an upscale wedding or event... the name, "Beef Wellington" has some cache'... it suggests "high end"... it's made only from the best cut of beef there is... and it looks the part... looks/presents very well... then I eat it and I'm disappointed.

 

After 5 or 6 times, I just decided - it isn't the chef or the way they make it... it's just not that good.

I guess if you're a big guy and can pack it away, I could see it... But heck, I get filled up eating my way to the meat. lol

It is English cuisine after all, right? They peaked at Fish and Chips.

there are several variations, but this is a classical dish that consists of tenderloin, mushroom duxelle, sometimes pate, wrapped in puff pastry. these days the most common is a mini version passed as hors d'oeuvres. you will see individually wrapped portions, but the old traditional method was to do it as a whole tenderloin. usually topped with some type of sauce.

 

 

i like it, but it is not on many menus

It's a focking hot dog. They are almost universally cheap and nasty. Oh but I'm not supposed to ruin it with ketchup? :rolleyes:

 

Now a brat - that is different.
