Sorry, the words ‘restaurant chain’ and ‘best steak’ do not go together.
Correct.
We used to have a local meat market here that sold meats at very reasonable prices and cut to order. Sadly they closed up shop when the owner died. But you could get some really tender steaks that you could practically cut with a spoon...............
I really agree with this statement. I've eaten several times at a Del Frisco's in Dallas, and the food is 'okay'. Not something I'm like, "We just have to go there to eat."
Fleming's is fine for a rare occasion. But to be honest, I more often than not ordered the Chilean Sea Bass. I enjoy a good steak, but if someone isn't ordering the main item in your name, what does that say.
Get to know a butcher, and then learn how to cook. One trick for a great steak is to salt it at least several hours before you'll cook it, and then let it rest outside the fridge to let the temperature of it come up naturally before throwing it on the grill.
