[food] How... odd.

In a 'what the hell?' kind of way, I've found myself actively craving steak lately (a few months).

Now, I'm not a vegetarian, and have never been. Beef was, however, never something I particularly wanted until recently. I have no idea what to do with this, really.

Ok. What kind of meat is good for this?

uh...no clue. the last time i bought steak i just made sure it didn't look icky (gray patches, oil-slick-rainbow patches), and checked the expiration date to be sure that it had a few days left.

ask someone who works there, maybe?

also, i haven't cooked steak in ages so i'll be googling. lemme know if there are any particular flavors you want with/on it and i'll see if we have the stuff for it.

There have been two suggestions for "New York Strip steak" so far, so I think that's a good bet. ;)

Also, there have been two suggestions on how to cook steak in here!

Probably won't get around to it until after Joe's gone, if that matters.

The main "premium" steaks are porterhouse/t-bone, ribeye, tenderloin, and NY strip. NY strip has more flavor than tenderloin (and is cheaper) and is easier to cook than the other two, so it's what I recommended. (And it's what I like, too -- when I go get "a steak" for myself, I usually get a NY strip unless there's a really compelling sale on ribeye or porterhouse.)
