Lol No way is the Strip better than the Ribeye.

Yeah way.

Strip has much better depth of flavor due to the specific marbling and thickness of the cut of meat.

The only one that comes close to the strip is the Porterhouse due to the inclusion of the tenderloin in that specific cut.

People that shop at the meat counter at Costco think Ribeyes are the shit because they are featured. It's an easier cut to make by the butcher, especially in fast/mass production and has consistency in terms of the marbling regardless of the type of steer it came from.

However, a properly cut Strip is most definitely superior to a ribeye cut, especially on a better grade of beef.

I'd never turn down a strip, but I'll always choose a ribeye over it. Just more flavor and more tender.

Never understood the praise for ribeyes. Just too much fat and it doesn't seem to add to the flavor. Plus when eating one it's annoying to have to carve off all the fat while not wasting any of the good parts.

Also I have seen some eating a ribeye and when they are done their plate is clean. WTF how do they eat the huge pieces of fat on one of those?

It's real easy. You strategically cut your steak so a lot of the pieces have a little bit of that super tasty mouth watering fat attached, love it. When you find some of the fat that has a little crispy charring around the edges you simply put it in your mouth and savor it.

You can't eat like that everyday and maintain healthy cholesterol levels but most human bodies can handle it just fine a few times a month.

So many opinions about the right meat when it really doesn't matter what you start with but what you do with it. Just ask any woman (or whatever for you Bronco fans ).

Ribeye fat grilled right is like bacon. Filet is an extreme opposite; less fat. Both are great cuts and very enjoyable but reliant on perpetration and cooking. Same thing with a strip. Btw anyone choosing a T-bone over a filet or strip is an idiot

Though that little nubbin of fat in the apex of the T is, like, the best single thing on the cow.

I was thinking that but didn't know how to say it. Well put.

I like to eat snow geese. it tastes like steak with butter on it. plus I have to chew it for a while so I can savor it for twice as long. it really sticks to the ribs

Tri-Tip is a nice cut for great textured beef jerky. A little pricey but very nice.

That's just selfish. Do you know how many tons of water it takes to float all those geese?
