Try J & J steak house.....Best in Pasadena.

You know… that is one place I have been meaning to try but haven’t got around to yet. I was planning to go there next to compare.

1.Must have certified angus beef. 2. Must have very high temp flame. 3. Must not marinate!!!!Do you want a steak or a teriyaki flavored something else? 4. After it is seared lightly salt and pepper. 5. Cook just past the point where it has a chance of recovery 6.Enjoy! I prefer ribeyes, but a good strip or t-bone is nice too.

Ribeye all the way!! The marbelling in it makes it very juicy and tender! Fillet is next. The Keg makes a bacon wrapped fillet. It's wonderful! Broiling works great. It seals the juices in. Have you ever been to Ruths Chris? Their steaks are broiled.
Please, no kissing, marinating or smoking. I only smoke after! Great cuts are a must.

What are your hours, I am dying to try it out. I’d like to bring my next date there. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>Grand Opening May 1st!! Will update (& invite)!!

Oh, come on the weekends, after 10pm we become a hot club with to-die-for appletini & gingertinis! If you're into beer, gotta try our exotic TIGER Beer!!

Porterhouse over an open wood fire.

And a nice big blop of ketchup.


Just kidding!

H2F, here is a different marinade that not everyone will like. It is very popular at one local rest. I only have it on occasion, but it is very good. I prefer a salty steak.

Sherry, pineapple juice, teriyaki and sugar.

Dear H2F,

I don't live all that far from Manhattan Beach. I frequently ride through there with my bicycling club. Here's my problem (and I suspect I'll catch grief for saying this):

I have been a vegetarian for most of my life and don't really have any plans to change that. I would be happy to give patronage to an H2 brothers establishment. I'd even bring along a one of those "costly littlw things," maybe even one that eats meat. My question is, after the Grey Goose Dirty Martini (neat), what can you show me. In Southern California, you cant forget about us grazers. So if you're talking tofu steak, marinate away and send me the address so I can stop by.

Thanks!

My Bro, there is no way we can forget our vegan friends! My lovely wife is 80% vegan hergorgeousself -- so for sure we will have many delicious cellulose-based entres!

We are still in escrow; I will update and send invite VERY SOON!

So, what's your fav tofu steak recipe?

A bicycler, vegetarian AND a H2? Damn, I know gas is expensive but.....

Tofu WHAAAT?

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">You probably don't want to know what aged meat means. Many people don't understand it. BUT, One cures meat and it acquires better taste and is more tender by allowing it to "age" or cure right after the kill. The carcass is generally hung up and allowed to cure for anywhere from 1 day to a month at a refrigerated temperature which allows for the meat to dry out and break down, making it more tender and tasty. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I was in Vegas recently and on the main floor of the casino NEW YORK NEW YORK was a steak shop just as you describe. I had always heard about them but never saw one before. Windows and windows full of beef at different stages of aging and displaying various shades of grey and black.

I like black.

I think it is Smith and Wollenskies (sp?) I have eaten there in Vegas and it is very good. However, here in Dallas we have Bob's Steak and Chop House and it is simply the best. Del Frisco's is second and Smith and Wollensky is third.

Don't fret, Tower -- I'm a vegetarian as well (8 years now). I have no problem with my meat-eating friends though -- it's simply a choice.

Today's legal section in the paper had something very special in it. Ruth's Chris ABC application for the VA Beach location!

You guys really are cruel talking about steak! Damn - I'll be glad when the holes heal up where my 4 wisdom teeth were last week!

Klaus, you get no sympathy from me. I got mine out last year by the wife's father! I was fu@$ed up for weeks! Do you think he did that on purpose? It wouldn't have been so bad if I had it done when I was originally told to, about 20 yrs ago....
