If you order steak and get it anything past medium you might as well order a cheaper option like hamburger.
I fuckin love me some steak sauce. Hp, a1 or keg steakhouse sauce are all great. I don't get the hate.
I like tubesteak.
No, that just means your cooking methods are limited.
Butter, Garlic, and Fresh Herbs disagree...
No, it really doesn't. It accentuates and is a background flavor. No where near the flavor impact of a steak sauce. This method of cooking steak is widely used in many high end restaurants and steak houses.Butter and garlic is the same as putting A1 steaksauce on it. Salt and pepper bring out the taste of the steak.
Butter, garlic, A1, or kecthup all cover up the taste of the steak. They are too strong of flavors.
Think about it, you put this on a steak and say this butter tastes good on this steak.
But you never say this salt and pepper taste good on a steak.
My father has been to some pretty nice steakhouses for his profession and a few places refuse to serve steak sauce he told me. You take the steak as is and require no sauce according to the chef.
I love steak as is, or with steak sauce. The sauce can accentuate the flavor of the steak and vice versa. It's not like I'd enjoy drinking a1 sauce on its own, but paired with a nice steak is fantastic.
I don't mind a bit of the following with my steak:
Butter
Garlic (or powdered)
Grilled Onions
Grilled Mushrooms
Demi-glaze
that being said, I'm usually salt and pepper.
Yeah, these are all great, though I usually saute / grill the mushrooms and onions on the side. (bacon wrapped) asparagus is another good side, and then of course mashed potatoes with some green onions / chives / whatever.
If a steak tastes better with A1 then you are eating a shit steak or your taste buds have not descended yet.
Rare with 90 year old scotch on the side. Anything else and you're not a real man.
Old ass scotch and rare steak=sophisticated(real man)You're drinking scotch made before the Great Depression?
