The tender beef cuts are also the least flavorful... ribeye and filet
migon are for folks who don't like the flavor of beef... they'd really
prefer grilled tofu with their steak sauce. My favorite beef steak is
a two pound 1 1/2" thick chuck steak grilled fast and furious rare to
medium rare. Unfortunately no steak house does chuck.
