I have a hankering for a nice, big, fat steak. I have been cutting down on my red meat trying to be healthier, but I really want a steak. So I think tomorrow I will either go out for one or pick a couple up at the grocery store and throw them on the grill.
When I make my own I have my own marinade sauce I make up and I leave them in the fridge soaking it up overnight. Then on the grill they go. I like mine well done with mushrooms and I throw some A-1 Steak Sauce on it. Yummy! So how do you like your steak done? Do you have a preferred way of preparing it? What do you like to eat with it?

I've never been very good at cooking steak, but I LOVE steak with mesquite seasoning on it. It is soooooooo good! And, I order it medium-rare because by the time I get it it's usually medium (because it continues to cook a bit even off the grill). I eat more chicken and fish than I used to, but every once in a while, a steak is just the right thing to satisfy my hunger. In fact, I had a wonderful butter-tender sirloin on Friday with mesquite seasoning at our local steakhouse. I do so wish I could cook one as well at home!

I've been trying to cut down on my red meat also, but it's grill season so every once in a while I treat myself.

I love a good steak every now and then myself. When I eat them I want them cooked either medium well or well done. I always cover them with A-1 steak sauce. This is a good discussion but you are making me hungry LOL!!!

Mushrooms and A-1 sauce, sound really good, that's how I like mine with some onions & peppers, and medium rare cooked out on my charcoal grill! I'll have a macaroini salad and corn on the cob with my steak.

I use my Traeger pellet grill to fix steaks. I marinat them in Jack Daniels marinade first. You can buy it at Walmart it comes in a bag you just put the steaks in it and put it in the fridge for an hour and then grill.

Cool... I used to make some of the JD stuff at the factory I worked in. It was pretty cool, but they kept a sharp eye on the JD...lol.

Hmmm...I never tried t with ranch, but I like ranch on everything else so it would probably taste great. Thanks for the tip!

I guess I am pretty boring with my steak! lol I just usually eat it totally plain. I like it to be well done, and then I eat it without anything extra added to it. I just really love the flavor of steak all by itself. I've tried it with steak sauce before if the meat was dry or something, to add a little moisture, but I usually just prefer it totally plain.

Most people that eat theirs rare say it gets tough if it's overcooked. Those of us who like it well say we don't like it mooing at us...lol.
