    Great Show GV.

    QOTD: Usually medium rare. Anything beyond that and the steak always seems to tuff.

  • JC

    Dessert wine usually always rocks! QOTD: Medium, cross sered, salt pepper, and sometimes marinaded in merlot or other things overnight.

  • Nice episode Gary! Love ur shows:)

  • jack

    QOTD: rare+ with nice sear outside from charcoal flame grill

  • Hotshot162

    QOTD: Medium on prime rib and medium rare on everything else

    Dessert wine with steak? Interesting…I’m going to try it tomorrow!

  • BargePlus

    Depends on at least the steak & the experience:

    With frites at a Paris bistrot: bleu (17 seconds on the grill – both sides)

    Or maybe medium rare with a bernaise sauce.

    Or just medium by itself.

    Expand your steak palette.

  • ’05 Tapestry shiraz: As soon as I saw it on your table I thought, “Oh NO, don’t do it, you’ll be sorry, don’t do it!”—because I’ve had it before. When someone asks me what “overoaked” means, that’s one of the wines I immediately mention as an example.

    QOTD: Medium rare, for beef steaks. Seared outside & raw inside, for tuna steaks.

    And I’ll look for that riesling sometime. I like to make an orange & tawny port reduction sauce to accompany my steaks (and salmon, and various other foods). Oranges + red meat = delicious.

    And: Someday I’ll email you about my Franciscan vs Justin tasting. I need to find another bottle of Justin while I’m in Florida this week so I can have my mother taste it as well. See, my mother is a white zin and riesling fan, and she’s always claimed to hate red wine because “it’s all too dry” or “it’s all too bitter.” Last time I visited my parents, I bought a bottle of ’04 Franciscan (eh, it’s been one of my staple cabs most of this year). My mother tried a glass and shocked me: “Oh, now see, this one’s not bad… it’s not dry… I like this!” I think she’ll prefer the Justin. When I find out, I’ll fire off that email.

  • QOTD :charcoal grilled. 4 minutes per side. sauces..sometimes. balsamic reduction and on a bed of spinach. salt and heavy pepper only.

    QOTD–Medium, if I have faith in the restaurant. Medium well if I am wary.

    Trust is huge.

    I love my steak grilled on the barbie to a Med-Rare doneness
    Drizzled with a light butter creme & blue cheese sauce.
    Served with a 6 liter 1992 Silver Oak Cabernet.

    Bring it On,
    RichE

  • QOTD: Medium Rare! Topped Oscar style or with some blue cheese, yum!

    Ok, Gary you got me. I have been lurking, but only about a month. I really enjoy the show and feel like I’ve learned a bunch.

    One of those WLTV Christmas pack is headed here for the holidays. Finally a reason to be excited again on Christmas day. ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Thanks

  • SS Chris

    QOTD: Just like Vincent & Mia on “Pulp Fiction”….I like my steak “bloody as hell”…that would be RARE!!!!!

  • MrTaz

    I just got to see last week’s shows. They were amazing. Some of the best TV on the internets, cable or over the airwaves.

    QOTD – Tuscan style — salt, pepper, olive oil, rare but well-marked on the grill.

  • Chris Braun

    I’m new here — this is the 3rd episode I’ve watched, and I’m loving it!

    qotd: I like a lean filet, blood rare, with a little salt and maybe some garlic. (I love late harvest rieslings but I must confess to doubts as to how they would go with bloody meat.)

  • ramona

    QOTD:medium rare to rare with good carmelization cut verrry thick, no sauces
    I have some ice wines it may be interesting to try with our Christmas beef

  • Stan G

    I work at a steakhouse and it kills me when customers order steaks “well done”. There’s nothing better then a filet cooked medium with a juicy pink center and a glass of wine!!

  • Jameus

    I’ve got BOTH wristbands all thanks to you man! I’ll have to seek out that Dรข??arenberg Noble Riesling. My wife loves dessert wines and I’ve always enjoyed Dรข??arenberg wines so it should all work out. That and my lws can get the for sure if I ask them to. Thanks for the eye opener!

    QOTD: I like my steak medium rare but it depends where I am. I noticed some places tend to think medium rare means completely uncooked ๐Ÿ˜› I also make a mean steak au pouvre with rib eyes mmm mmm mmm!

    The only way that I know to show the love is to answer the QOTD and ask to NOT be included in the drawing.
    QOTD: 2-inch thick Chateaubriand cut of the tenderloin, char-grilled to the rare side of medium rare, carved in 1/2-inch slices and served with Bearnaise.
