As someone who loves steak, you owe it to yourself to learn much more about the different beef cuts used for steak, because what you called sirloin is not --- it's a strip loin, also sometimes called a New York strip. The sirloin is from another part of the cow and is less tender than the strip loin and has less marbling. Both the Porterhouse and the T-bone include one each side of the bone a piece of tenderloin and piece of strip loin; the difference between those steaks is the relative size of the tenderloin is bigger on the Porterhouse. Suggest you visit a knowledgeable butcher so you can see the difference.

@truckguy6.7 5 ай бұрын
Individually cut steaks in N America you are correct but overseas and butchers consider it part of the sirloin primal. It is kind of confusing. I am not too sure where he is from but it could be why he calls it sirloin.
@Lakeplanner

I was thinking the same thing and wonder why he kept referring to the NY Strip as a sirloin. My go to cut is a bone-in ribeye with NY Strip number 2 choice when I want something a little leaner. I'm not a big fan of filet. While it is very tender, I find it to be lacking it in flavor and overpriced. I don't think I've ever seen a sirloin on the menu at a top rated steakhouse and think of it as more of a supermarket cut or commodity steak that one can find at national steakhouse chains like Texas Roadhouse or Longhorn.

I’ve eaten at Peter Lugers several times. On my first visit with a friend, we let the waiter decide. He served us what he called the standard fare: we split a tomato & onion to prepare the palate (his words), shared a porterhouse steak for two with steak fries, and finished up with pecan pie and cheese cake topped with schlag (a dessert in itself). It was perfect. Albeit, a bad cut occasionally happens and a ~$10 7-ounce coke is criminal, but Peter Luger remains my favorite!

Ive never been to or eaten at Luger's, so I may be full of it, however I have cooked in restaurants for many years, and I just dont agree with the presentation of their steaks in those piping hot plates. Number one, doing that to any meat is not allowing it to rest, which is CRUCIAL to keeping a steak juicy. Number two, the steak is continuing to cook while being placed on them like that, which is why you see such an inconsistent cook on the meat. The outside is EXTREMELY well done, with just a lil square that isnt a smooth pink, its a lil blotch of blood. Thats why your last steak at Lugers was chewy, because a lot of the meat was overcooked. Lastly, I dont like how they pre slice the steak before its served. I have suspicions its because they want to expedite the cooking process, and also limit mistakes in temp, dishes being brought back, and to also limit waste in steaks being thrown out and redoing them, like you sometimes have in restaurants. Again, slicing it early lets juice escape, which is important, and ive always felt as a cook and a customer that THE CUSTOMER has the right to cut their own steak. ESPECIALLY at those prices. Id never go there, and even if im wrong about everything ive said, I can guarantee you this. Theres steakhouses in every city that you can get that are just as good, if not better than Peter Luger's, for half the price.

Went there two weeks ago and I can attest to UA’s review. The steak was kinda lackluster in terms of the dry age flavor compared to gallagher’s or club a’s, but the sides were absolutely amazing, the German potato and creamed spinach were hands down the best I’ve ever had

You can do simple tomatoes without much, but if you do they need to be transcendent tomatoes. In almost 50 years I've only once had transcendent tomatoes, and it was at a fine dining restaurant in Bergamo Italy. I don't know if it was the soil or what, but when I took my last bite, it was the only time in my life that I nearly weeped that the experience had come to an end. If a restaurant ain't those guys, they probably shouldn't be serving a plate of raw tomatoes with just a bit of sauce on the side to jazz it up.

Wycoff prime meats in northern nj sells aged porterhouse that will give Peter Lugers a run for their money. Of course you have to cook yourself and depending on type of grill you have will determine thickness of cut you buy. Have a char-broil infrared bbq with two burners does a fantastic job for 1.75 inch of porterhouse or shell x 4. Um ≈12 mins on max.

First, the tomato and onion are meant to be dipped 8n the sauce and eaten together. Also, they are called breadsticks and those are caraway seeds. The next point is, a porterhouse is a filet and a new your strip. NOT sirloin. And if you have to drown your steak in sauce, it's not a good steak

I've never been to Peter Luger’s so I ordered their steak sauce from Amazon. You mentioned, jokingly, that the sauce could be poured over ice cream. You are not wrong. I haven’t poured it over ice cream, but every other thing I’ve eaten for the past week has been smothered in Peter Luger sauce. I think the horseradish flavor mixed with the tomato sauce (and other mystery spices) creates the nectar of the Gods. You, UA, have created a Peter Luger Sauce addict.

I enjoyed the re-review. The food looked great. I'm more of a meat and potatoes kind of person with a vegi on the side. I hate sauces and I cant eat dairy. Okay I can but Ill be up all night questioning my life choices. I eat at my favorite steak house tonight. A local place owned by one person who really knows his clientele. It was great he offered a 9 inch prawn with the 5 ounce filet as a special and I had it so did my wife. You get a salad and a potato choice as part of the dinner. The value at this place is so amazing 52 dollars. I eat out a lot maybe not as much as you but I know value. I take everyone there and they all go back. I think it just takes someone that really cares to make a persons experience great and give them a value and great food and service they cant have at one of these high end places. If your Wisconsin let me know. Ill take you there. I wont name it but if you message me Ill let you know.

Same experience I’ve always had with both lugers and wolfgangs. The filet was absolutely magnificent, while the sirloin wasn’t bad initially, but as the steak cooled rapidly it became very tough to eat. This was over two nights at each restaurant, which I attribute to the way they cook the steak and cut it while it’s still hot and the juices leak out impacting the sirloin particularly.

You have to eat the onion tomato and sauce together. It’s sweet, sour oniony and a good combo. I’ve eaten at PL 7 times and even had my wedding dinner there party of 30 people. Was phenomenal. Bacon, amazing, slag, amazing and steak for two. People either love or hate PL and would rather go to Wolfgangs, or Sparks which are a bit more elegant environments. I’ve eaten at pretty much every steakhouse in NYC and they all offer something different.

Prices are crazy now...I lived in NYC from 1978-1998,i went to Peter Luger's once a month for 12 years straight,it was 4-6 of us back then,we never had to wait for a table,since we were regulars and got special treatment...always started off with a gin martini,they poured 4 ounces of gin to 1 ounce of dry vermouth...i think they were $7.00 each...Steak for 4 was $60.00 or less,was a long time ago..The sides were $3.95,always got the cream spinach and home fries...Wine prices were not too bad,i think was a 300% mark up..but they did let us bring in a bottle and we always bought 2 or three bottles depend on if we were 4 or 6 people.A doctor and his wife bought over the place from the original owners back in the late 80's..Wife worked at a famous research University at the time...I have not been there since i left NYC..and still consider it the best steaks i have ever had...
