I have noticed that when I go out to dinner, unless it's a steak house, I order something other than steak. I eat so much of it at home that I want to try something different. If it's not a steak house and they don't prepare it properly, it'll just annoy me.

Astra have you tried marinating your steak before cooking them? You could try straight bromelain which is a pineapple enzyme used most often as a meat tenderizer.

The first time I had this combination was at Sparks steakhouse in NYC. I order fillet mignon w/ Roquefort. Whoa!! Does that have some kick. That's when I realized that Roquefort might be a little stronger than my tastebuds would prefer.

How is that scientifically possible?

Even when I have my steak "plain" I'll usually put butter on top of them. Everything is better with butter!
