I would like to know everyone's favorite choice of BEEF!!! we all know beef is great; but sirloin? rump roast? london broil? ground beef? T-bone? of course we all know to go for lean cuts. I just want to know what the big dawgs find to be superior choices. Personally, I love the Eye of Round cut...o0o...tender! Lean ground beef is good too simply 'cause its easy to make with anything. let me know what u guys choose and why!!! please.
 
Overall, Top Sirloin (from Omaha Steaks :) ).. for low fat, flavor, tenderness, etc. Best tasting is by far Ribeye/Prime rib.. but the fat and calories is ungodly! Once you look it up and see you'll understand. T-bone is great but again, it's a fatty choice. Top Sirloin is going to be your best bet unless it's a cheat meal and you don't care about fat and cal's :) Roast wise, I've found Bottom Round to be my favorite. It just seems to have a better flavor then the rest.
Brand has alot to do with it as well. Omaha Steaks is superior in any cut.
 
anyone know a site that tells all the differences between all the cuts?? protein/fat content, etc. etc.?? i could use that info heheh.
 
Not too fussed when it comes to what kind but I guess I prefer Medallion nice juicy cut. Mmmmmm BBQ..... (wipes drewl off mouth)

shit pretty much anything with a good amount of marbling. screw lean cuts, the fat makes the shit taste better anyway.
 
Flank steak for grilling after marinade (soy sauce, honey, chives, garlic and a little lemon grass)

7 bone roast.....dirt cheap, more tender than any sirloin when brazed (I put it in a dutch oven after searing, pore a coke over it and toss it in the oven....no knife needed after that......about an hour before it finishes pour in a little water and add potatoes, carrots and onions and cook until taters are done...bada bing dinner in one pot)

Porterhouse.......cause that's a real steak.

I know you'll hate me Jay but I'm the type cook that does things by feel rather than measurements......but I'd venture to guess that it would be 1/4 - 1/2 soy, 3 tablespoons of honey.....chive and garlic in amounts you wish. My dad would sub mollasses for the honey which I thought wasn't bad. let it marinade at least an hour and cook it 5 minutes on one side and 5 on the other = red in the center

The real trick to a flank steak is how it's cut....slice in thin strips across the grain. With garlic mashed or a baked tater you'll be fat and happy.

Grilling it gives it a whole different taste than broiling but broiling is my usual cooking method.........I'm lazy and hate having to clean my grill.
 
Sirloin is good and i like to make my own burgers with extra lean mince beef with salsa and montery jack cheese. Mmmm
