Flank steak vs prime rib


Recommended Posts

I see posters claiming they would have went for sure fire thing (ala rosen) instead of taking best potential (ala Allen).. no right or wrong opinion, but If I'm gonna grill me a nice steak on the grill, I'm gonna go prime rib all day, everyday! Sure I might have to wait a little longer before I eat, compared to grilling a flank steak. But I have patience and the wait will be worth it! If ur hungry and want to eat, by all means choose the flank.. But if u have time and can wait for a better meal, choose the prime rib every time!!

No, burgers are usually consistent. I've had far more bad steaks than bad burgers.

True.  But a good steak doesn't need to be dressed with anything to still be good (ketchup, lettuce, tomato, bacon, etc).

 

I'd rather have a steak cooked right then a burger that I have to dress up.

if i knew that your grilled prime rib recipe was fundamentally flawed and that the entire history of cookery suggested that the result would be an overcooked, dry, gag-inducing piece of leather, i would put my odds on the flank steak.

Tenderloin for me. All that marbling is flavor, but too fatty for my style. (Long Smith & Wolenski story from Vegas I will spare you from.) I prefer sous vide so I lessen the chance to over cook it.

I work in the oilfield ( Midland TX ) when some equipment breaks down  , the grill gets fired up , ribeye is my favorite at home on the grill or steakhouse , and to be honest I never ever even considered flank steak , we have quite a few Mexicans working with us and these guys know how to marinate/grill a flank steak , I never knew that they could make it so tender and flavorful I was amazed

I like a nice cut of bison steak myself. Who would that be? Darnold?

A place near us has elk tenderloin. My son ordered it and I got a taste. I thought about challenging him for it! Sadly, I would have lost any battle of brawn or wits. But it sure was good!

Ahhhhhh, good, old, trusty, reliable, flank steak.  Can't go wrong with that.  Flank steak never lets you down.

The problem with Filet is it doesn’t have the flavor.

Now, I LOVE Ribeye and it is my go to but do not sleep on Flank Steak!!!!

FS has tremendous flavor. Try making some Chimichuri and have it with some open faced FS sandwich on French Bread brochettes!!!!!!

You will thank me????

I get that, purely based on the cut of meat. But a properly seasoned and seared tenderloin with a red wine Demi glacé  is fabulous! Flank steak can be great if done properly (while very affordable!), and I prefer it to the fattier ribeye. Not right or wrong, just personal preference. 

 

That’s what happens when a thread title goes all steak around here!  :D
