Worse Steak: I visited Hong Kong and the meat these wasn’t tender and juicy as I wanted it to be.

Best Steak: Good old homemade on my own stove using my dad’s marinade when he use to work at a steakhouse.

My best steak was a Porterhouse at Pace’s in Hauppague New York.
My worst was a New York strip steak that fell into a in-ground pool. My uncle Harry was grilling near our pool and he went to put it on a plate and it slipped off into the pool. He assured us that if he grilled it for a few more minutes we would never know the difference. We didn’t have the heart to tell him that it was the worst steak ever. It was as crunchy as tree bark. Sometimes you do what you need to do for family!!!!

QOTD:

The greatest steak is the porterhouse for two at Peter Luger’s. I had it when my brother graduated from high school.

The worst steak I ever had was an overcooked one a Charlie Palmer’s steakhouse which was promptly replaced.

Before the QOTD, wanted to comment on the show – really interesting, but believe you touched upon a key point which is that boxes cannot replace glass bottles if only for the aging component. For drink-now mass market wines, sure, a box may work. Anything else, no way.

QOTD: Best steak was at a jazz lounge / restaurant in Pewaukee, WI called Piano Blu – It was a bone-in rib-eye topped with Roaring 40s cheese. Perfection! (Runners up go to Coeper’s Five O’Clock Club in Milwaukee, followed by Smoky’s in Madison).

Worst steak was had on the isle of Huahine (rustic Pacific island near Tahiti). I don’t know if it was beef…

vury vury nice, i enjoyed this episode to the fullest. wakka wakka.

(QOTD) hrmmm, i mean the best is a title that i would have to rack ma’ brain for……well…… i guess the best steak i ever had was when i went to arizona and my uncle put a few steaks on the grill and slightly smoked them with a mixture of apple wood and dried rosemary. perfect char and perfect red coloring on the inside.

(QOTD0 The worst would have to be a steak i found in the freezer that i ended up broiling. and me not knowing if it was legit to eat or not………..well i ended up re-tasting it that night so i guess the moral to this QOTD is to check your meat….and check it good.

QOTD: Best steak I’ve ever had was in a little cafe in Denton, Nebraska, just south of Lincoln. 5 or 6 formica-topped tables, a lettuce wedge with orange-colored French dressing and saltine crackers for sides. Willie Nelson on the jukebox. The guy who ran the place butchered and aged the beef himself. It would just melt in your mouth. And the price was 1/10th what you would pay for the same size piece of meat in New York City.

Worst steak? Hmmm. So many to choose from. I’m sure it came from Sizzler and was cooked to within an inch of it’s life.

QOTD:
Best: A prime rib from a restraint in Virginia Highlands (I can’t remember the name)
Worst: Every time my Son forgets to check on the grill (gets lost in his computer)

Okay, best steak ever was a Porterhouse from a friend who raised cattle on his ranch in the hills above Napa Valley. It was grass fed and cooked on a grill, followed closely by a Chateaubriand (I think it was actually a Tenderloin) at a restaurant when I was stationed in Germany many years ago.

Worst? Wow, I’m sure I’ve had a bad one, but it’s been so long, I can’t remember, or else I’ve simply erased it from my memory.

QOTD: best steak? From “The Chanler” restaurant in Newport RI. Worst steak? just about any Appleby’s!!!

qotd!?!?!!? Best steak will have to be a RIB EYE WITH a little Pappys Rub (free plug for pappys seasoning) cook at my backyard…worst steak will be applebees….what was i even thinking ordering that….!?!?!

QOTD:
Best Steak: The Cowboy Steak (30oz bone-in ribsteak) at Ruth’s Chris
Worst Steak: Any steak cooked by my grandmother.

QOTD: Best steak is from Cafe de Paris in Geneva Switzerland … think thin flank steak smoothered in an herb butter sauce with french fries … no menu, no point they only serve one thing, all they ask you is how you want it cooked and what you want to drink … you have to try it to believe it

Worst: I have plenty of bad ones but just went to Applebee’s and they are trying to do a steak house thing but it is not good

Gary can’t wait to win that bottle. Any ways just like to say i really enjoyed the Chateau Bellfont belcier. Now it is time for a paulhobbs pinot noir.

Best – Filet mignon stuffed with foie gras at Hillebrand Estates Winery in Niagara on the Lake, Canada
Worst – Over-cooked Ribeye at Gene & Georgetti in Chicago

QOTD: Best steak was a filet that was perfectly cooked to medium rare as part of a steak Oscar dish at the Aberdeen Barn in Norfolk VA. Worst was also a filet that came in a boiling pouch from Home Bistro that my wife(love her) over boiled as was totally unedible. Jerry the 2thdr
