All right h2finally, this subject is near and dear to my heart.
Here is the recipe for the best tasting steak I have ever made. You'd probably want to combine ingredients from the items below rather than purchasing the pre-made product but give it a taste.
Marinate Filet for at least 4 hrs in house of tsang teriyaki sauce (yes - use this brand specifically!). Grill appropriately then lightly season steak with Johnny’s seasoning after meat is approx 80% cooked. Finish grill steak as desired (though anything beyond medium is an affront to the gods of steak).
I am only going to tell you this idea because I have no plans to use it (but if it makes you filthy rich...hook me up...;-)....now here it is....sell a steak sampler. As a connoisseur of fine steak I would absolutely love to order a sampler of each steak on the menu. Also, rather than having a set marinade offer a marinade menu which can be applied to each of several different cuts of steak. This would encourage people to return and try each of the marinades with their favorite cut and perhaps also delve into different cuts with their fav marinade. This marinade/steak menu could then also make up your sample platter. You could charge a premium and rather than just a meal the patron would be getting an "experience" much like the beer sample platters available at microbreweries. This may be best for a true steakhouse but I think you could make your biz stand out if able to successfully implement.
Good luck with the new venture, and remember to hook me up! ;-)
