jpq123 at 3:00PM on 12/26/07
In our house, we love any steak.... period. Given the choice, I always choose a porterhouse. Usually we eat them at about an inch thick so they cook up real nice on the grill, we prefer them med. rare.
Our brother-in-law buys them from a popular meat freezer plan and pays a fortune for them, and they are nothing to write home about....I prefer to go to the store and pick them out myself, choosing ones with lots of marbling for that tender, juicy taste.
Ok, now you've got me really hungry for steak.....
ababe28 at 3:02PM on 12/26/07
My summer as a butcher taught me that a porterhouse has the highest quality-to-cost ratio, but when I'm craving beef, I want flank steak, marinated for hours in garlic and mustard.
