[ QUOTE ] Filet is the most tender but it lacks the flavor of some other cuts. [/ QUOTE ] Ding! Winner. [/ QUOTE ] i find that if i can't taste my filet mignon, i've simply overcooked it. if you feel that you simply cannot stand medium rare and would like more flavor, it is sometimes a simple matter of going light on the sauce.

Filet. End of thread. [/ QUOTE ] Maybe you missed this part: So what's the best cut in terms of flavor? The filet's great texture-wise, and that's its appeal. It's fairly bland as steaks go, though. Your answer is generally misguided, and a long ways from end-of-thread. The ribeye's an excellent choice. Bone-in ribeye's nice too. Onglet's also been mentioned, and I'd second that as well. Tri-tip BBQs well. If you're in a neighborhood with a mexican market, they often have very tasty marinated flank steak. It may well be good even if the rest of the market doesn't look all that reputable. You'd be looking for "carne par asar preparada". It'll be pretty cheap, too...somewhere around $3.50-$5/lb. It's not especially practical since it requires slow-cooking, but oxtail is freaking fabulous. It's not all that hard to make - just takes time.

[/ QUOTE ] I order my steaks as rare as the kitchen's willing to cook them, and go very light on sauce. Filet still has some taste - don't get me wrong. It's just much more mild and IMO less interesting than some other, cheaper cuts.

Re: What\'s the best steak cut?
Yeah, what is all this sauce stuff? Just some light seasoning, cook it to the rare side of medium rare, and off you go.
