Local place here sells wet aged delmonicos. Can't beat it over a quick pounding on a 700 degree charcoal bed.

Everyone knows the best beef in the country comes from Iowa.

Yep, got to agree with you there too. However, I've eaten many Nebraska/Iowa steaks and they are both very, very good and I can't see much of a difference. I'll go out on a limb here (and catch some heat) and say both states produce better steaks than Texas. Look out, the haters will start to hate.....

Corn fed beef in the Midwest. Grass fed beef in Texas. No comparison in taste or quality. You can have the grass fed beef, I'll stick with corn fed, thanks. :toast:

I will second that, reds.


There is a place here in town that sells prime. You can't beat a prime porterhouse

Get all my beef from a farm an hour from here. No growth hormones and the only drugs the cows get is mandated by law.
Very rare for me to eat a steak in a restaurant since I've always got finer meat in my freezer than what they are serving.

A dry aged steak is always better than a wet aged steak. Issue is you typically can't get dry aged in any store or from a butcher really, need to go directly to a processor.

Not arguing the fact whether the dry aged are better. Although the last dry aged I had was at the Ruth Chris steak joint at Mohegan sun casino and it was exactly that... Dry. I was pretty disappointed for a $50 plate.

These wet aged sweeties we get are pretty damn tasty.

That's common vernacular for Midwestern shlubs. Don't ask me why.

Very true. Although in Sports' case, Vermont is south of Maine, so he would actually be traveling 'down'.
I'm always amused when in conversation I'll mention going to Wisconsin several times a year and get as a reply-- "why do you go down there so often?" :facepalm:

I'm on the Coast so VT is pretty much West of St. George, Maine....So I won't be able to come down but I may be able to skip over....:shrug:
