What is a great affordable steak and how do you cook it at home?

I am a great cook but, I always come up short in the steak department. As a kid I never had it and my mother never cooks it. I am trying to feed a family of four and would love to know what affordable great steak can I buy and how to cook it at home? Please help cause Im hungry.

The best cuts of meat are definitely the loin areas. These are your porterhouses and your filet mignons. These steaks are by far the most tasty and are by far the most expensive. If you really want the true steak experience, buy about three or four porterhouse steaks and slow cook them on the grill about 10 minutes at a very low heat (120-150 degrees). Do not char the outsides and keep the insides pink. You steak will come out delicious.
If you want a first time, cheaper steak experience, try buying a bone-in T-bone or NY strip. though still cut from the same area, it is a smaller steak and will cost you less. No matter what you choose, do not, i reapeat, do not overcook your steak. You will end up with a chewy, charred piece of meat. You might as well have purchased carne asada or beef jerky if you overcook it. Keep it rare and make some baked potatos and a nice bottle of merlot to compliment the taste.
Have fun.

  1. Try sirloin steak. It’s not that expensive. Marinade it in your favorite marinade in a reclosable bag and put it in the fridge for a few hours. The longer, the better. Afterwards, remove from the fridge a few minutes before cooking and then put it on a hot the grill. Cook to your desired doneness. Enjoy!
