  • Mr.Ambassador

    A bit disappointed with the actual wine-showing, but it was interesting to see that last pairing – something I’d certainly never have considered.

    I like my steak barbecued medium-rare with some great bleu-cheese chunks and crumbles atop. It’s hard to go wrong with a mushroom-steak pairing as well!

    QOTD: Medium Rare with sauted mushrooms.

    Nice break on the interception, he acted as if it was so ‘matter of fact’ when he ran it the short distance into the endzone… Nice.

    QoTD: Med-Rare – But I don’t want the 5L bottle of wine – I just wanna leave a comment…greed-free!

    I would never have paired a desert wine with steak. And while I might try it just to see what happens – I find I can only take a few sips of most desert wines before the sweetness saturates my pallate. I am open to giving it a shot though.

    Still just desert-wine portions…right? More for sipping than drinking?

    Thanks for the FREE show…keep up the great work! Oh and Merry Christmas!

    Does a quality steak house even cook a steak any other way except Medium-Rare? If so, they shouldn’t. Ok, MAYBE medium.
    But for me, Medium-Rare.

    Nice show Gary. Like the idea of a dessert wine with the steak. MIght have to try that soon. I have a bottle of Ice wine at home that I have been wanting to drink.

    So whats this about my beloved pittsburgh steelers? I was suprised of the lack of chop busting from the game a couple weeks ago 🙂

    QOTD: I used to be a well done kind of guy. Yeah I know, no flavor. Well, the last 5 years or so its been less and less. And now I am just stuck on ordereing my steak medium. I have tried med rare and just too much blood :). A good mediaum with plenty of juice, tab bit of blood. Its all good. The last pairing I had was a aussy syrah with a med sirloin. Tasty!
