Allen Brothers' Wagyu Long-Bone Ribeye steaks are distinguished by their rich marbling and the natural "flavor kernel" that runs through each steak. It is this marbling that slowly melts and bastes the meat throughout the cooking process, imparting a mellow, prime rib flavor. Experience this rare and flavorful indulgence as only Allen Brothers can deliver. This steak features an 8 to 10 inch bone and is thick-cut from our succulent rib roasts. Please note this selection is available in very limited quantities.

my guess is 75 bucks

*exitspeed* · 09-25-2008, 11:53 AM

Stiizy, you know how to cook a good steak already?

Cause you don't want to learn one a piece like that.

I told my wife last night and she said it would be cool if we have something big to celebrate. I agree.

You can also get it at Ruth's Chris steak house. I think it was like $75 for a 6oz fillet there. Or somewhere around there. It's not listed on their menu online but I was offered it at the one in Indy.

stiizy · 09-25-2008, 12:06 PM

Yea i know how to cook a good steak...

Ruth Chris yea we got one over here i might go for my Anniversary coming up and get it there...

Hell no imagine fucking up on a 200 steak i'd be pissed haha

*fliprayzin240sx* · 09-25-2008, 01:19 PM

Its all hype, its not the beef, its how its prepared and marinated that makes the difference.

I've had Kobe Beef out in Okinawa and it wasnt as great as I thought it would be. Well not for the $80 piece of meat I paid for...

I feel bad you can't taste the difference between grades of beef. I can tell the difference between an aged well marbled steak and just a steak from a large grocery store.

I really doubt it's hype. Place a piece of Prime grade rib-eye next to a Grade 7 Kobe, you should be able to tell just looking at it. Marbling is muchh better on the Kobe.

Maybe the place you had it overcooked it? Or possibly it was a lower grade Kobe. Sometimes they will just throw the name out there and slap on a price.

If you guys have been to Vegas buffets where they serve "kobe", it's so horrible, i cant eat it.

The way my family eats beef, none of us ever order steak at restaurants. It never matches up to home. Places will buy choice beef and sell it as prime, it's because the majority don't know the difference.

***Future240*** · 09-25-2008, 07:49 PM

^Tips on how to tell?

Also I am sure this is open to debate, what do you all feel is the best way to serve a steak

Blue Rare, Rare, Rare Plus, Medium Rare, Medium, Medium Well Done, Well Done

For reference for those who need it

Quote:

Raw - Uncooked. Used in dishes like steak tartare, Carpaccio, Gored gored, tiger meat and Kitfo.
Blue rare or very rare - (37.8°C/100°F core temp) Cooked very quickly; the outside is seared, but the inside is usually cool and barely cooked. The steak will be red on the inside and barely warmed. Sometimes asked for as 'blood rare'. In the United States this is also sometimes referred to as 'Black and Blue' or 'Pittsburgh Rare'.
Rare - (48.9°C/120°F core temp) The outside is gray-brown, and the middle of the steak is red and slightly warm.
Rare plus - The outside is gray-brown, and the middle of the steak is mostly red and warm, with some pink. Often ordered by those who prefer medium rare and don't mind rare but worry about overcooking towards medium.
Medium rare - (52.2°C/126°F degrees core temp) The steak will have a fully red, warm center. Unless specified otherwise, upscale steakhouses will generally cook to at least this level.
Medium - (57.2°C/160°F degrees core temp) The middle of the steak is hot and red with pink surrounding the center. The outside is gray-brown.
Medium well done - (62.8°C/175°F degrees core temp) The meat is light pink surrounding the center.
Well done - (73.9°C/180°F degrees core temp) The meat is gray-brown throughout and slightly charred.

Personally I prefer medium well. A waiter once told me that is the way to go to insure there are no beasties in the meat, but yet still get the taste of the meat

Mr. Camshaft · 09-25-2008, 09:23 PM

Rare for me. I likes me my blood. I too would also like tips on IDing good meat.
