I don't eat much beef anymore, but when I did, it was a Rib Eye steak. I used to pan fry it. No other steak could compare.

And for a pot roast, it was a boneless chuck.

Rib eye for a steak and nothing compares to a "Tri-Tip roast for flavor!! Trouble is....now that I've moved we can't get Tri-Tips here. Have looked and others have given me suggestions like Sams Club or butchers but no luck yet!

Fillet but like all beef it must be hung properly to extract as much flavour as possible ( at least 28 days). I love "onglet" ( not sure what the English term is for it ? Hanger steak? and "bavette" which is cut from the skirt, both extremely flavoursome cuts.

Served with a good Bearnaise sauce or some deep red wine sauce and served with wild mushrooms and home-made mash potatoes... yumm...

I was really impressed with Alberta grass fed beef when in Canada recently,the meat was beautifully marbled , and yet lean , much darker than beef often is and the flavour was incredible. And soft as butter as well as juicy. Absolutely gorgeous.

For me ribeye steaks are most consistent for being tender with good flavor. I only have 1 or 2 a year on special occasions so I do want the best then.

Cyn, no costco where you are? they sell tri-tips.


My favorite cut of beef is chuck roast, because it is sooo versatile. Beef stew, pot roast, shredded beef for tacos (natch).

Ribeyes are really good steaks, and my favorite, but frankly I get bored with a steak after 4 or 5 bites. I prefer the side dishes. I usually order a filet in a steak restaurant, but only because it's the smallest one on the menu.
