What's at Steak in Today's Game?
The meaty part of the schedule; this game epic in its repercussions. A win puts Michigan a half game up on Nebraska. Couple that with a PSU win over Minny and it gives us the tie-breaker against the Gophers. A loss eliminates Michigan from a BIG title opportunity and a major bowl birth. Either way, after today we will know if there's sizzle or just smoke. Dammit, now I feel the urge to BBQ. Go PSU. GO BLUE! Thoughts and predictions?

Filet is steak for old people. Soft and flavorless.
Ribeye is the steak of choice if you want a thick cut flavorful steak. Skirt is the best if you want flavor above all.

Flavorless?! Meat blasphemey...

It's all in how you prepare it, junior. Also, remember that all senses dull as you age (particularly true for hearing if you were stoned in the 5th row of the 1977 Flint IMA Rush show and other such endeavors), so we want highly flavorful stuff so we can, you know, taste it.

so I'd say the steaks are... pretty high.
Michigan isn't going to the B10 title game. This is not a Rose Bowl season. That possibility ended in OT against Penn State. And frankly... it's for the best. Do you really, really want to see this team go up against Stanford or Oregon? You really don't want to see that. You don't want the rest of the country seeing it, either.

Yes, I do. I love roasted Duck. Smoked squab is delicious too.

(Continuing the epic punning)
Throw some Corn(husker) on the BBQ while you're at it.

Serious question here: Is prime rib considered steak? It sure looks and tastes like steak to me, but lots of menu seem to try pretty hard to separate the two. I just don't get it....
November 9th, 2013 at 11:53 AM ^
I consider it steak-like, although not literally steak. Kind of how a tomato is considered a vegetable, even though not literally a vegetable.
November 9th, 2013 at 12:04 PM ^
That depends.
If cut as a steak (about 1"1/2 thick) and grilled, it is my favorite cut of steak.
If cooked as whole rib section, it is a roast.
November 9th, 2013 at 12:18 PM ^
Ok, this I think helps me understand now. If cut like a steak pre-cook and then broiled or grilled as such, it's a steak. But if cut post-cook (which is almost always a roast for prime rib), it's not. Now that makes absolute sense, unless I'm still missing something.
November 9th, 2013 at 12:07 PM ^
November 9th, 2013 at 12:10 PM ^
I think of steak as a cut of meat you grill. You don't grill prime rib if you want it to be good.
November 9th, 2013 at 12:28 PM ^
I've never seen it cooked like a steak. It's typically cooked as a very big piece of meat, bigger than you'd ever see if you're cooking a roast for your family. I agree that it's a great substitute for steak, but I'd call it a substitute, not a version of steak.

for a friend's birthday celebration. SOOO GOOD. The final bill was $350 for the 4 of us, and that was without any of us drinking alcohol. Expensive, but was worth it.

This really is a great question as the best steak I ever had was in Nebraska (75 ounce porter house). YUMMMM.... just thinking about it.
What was the question again?

One minor grammatical error and this turns into something that isn't inteded but I'd cheating myself if I didn't participate...a nice 8 oz. beef tenderloin sounds about delicious; this post may have taken care of lunch decisions.

I really hope we don't end up eating tube steak today.

Was that some sort of reference to a meat whistle?
