It does make life easier.:) I forget which grade of beef they use. Some of the large chains say they use prime.

My favorite steakhouse locally. They know how to cook a steak Pittsburgh style.
Crispy on the outside and rare center.. Both Filets and ribeyes...

The Beat Filet is DIY
 

I was on a filet diet. I had filet every night for 6 months. (Lost 80lbs) It was easy to do because I easily had the best filet in 50 miles. Simple is best. Here is what I did.

1. Get prime filet from Publix. (Not all Publix have it. ) have them cut you center cuts of 2 1/2 to 3” filets. This will provide 10 to 12 oz. filets. It has to be Prime.

2. Heat a well seasoned cast iron pan over high heat, to searing temperature.

3. Season the filet with salt and pepper only.

4. Add a few drops of evoo to the pan.

5. Place the filet in the pan, and reduce the pan down to a medium high temperature.

6. I like rare, so I cook the filet for 3 minutes 30 seconds on each side.

7. I finish the steak, in the pan with a splash of dry vermouth, and a drizzle of truffle oil.

This is best done on a gas stove.

Simple, easy to do, and very little prep. To my taste this produces the best filet ever.

Well, in the olden days.... Like last year, I'd buy a 2 1/2" thick Tomahawk at Sam's . Smoke it on my pellet grill for about 2 hrs. Temperature is about 130 to 140, your choice. Then and brush on the butter, sear it on my gas grill at 500 degrees for a minute or two. Ah... best steak I've ever had....

Live nearby, and may give Oak a try. Just wondering, how much was the steak? And what type of steak did you have? Thanks!

Best Restaurant to Eat a pefectly cooked Rib Eye???
 

Ok I read almost all of the replies to your question. Best Restaurant to Eat a pefectly cooked Steak / Rib Eye??? Most replies were about cooking the rib eye at home?? Very few answered your question. I have been to The Chop House in Sumter Landing. Great ambiance but my steak was maybe a 7 or 8 on a scale of 1-10. My best choice for a perfectly cooked Bone in Rib Eye and I have been to this chain of restaurants a dozen times in several states. NY, FL, and NC. The LongHorn Steak House on CR441 has the Best tasting Bone in Rib Eye. It's called "The Outlaw Ribeye". I have never been disappointed. A perfectly cooked Rib Eye every time without the High Prices. Enjoy

The Delmonico at Prima is the best I've had in TV. I've been told the kitchen can't mess them up because of the cost of them. Win for me! It's the only steak in TV I have never sent back.

Really? One out of how many?

Another great place in Ocala is Stirrup's at the World Equestrian Center hotel. Magnificent food and atmosphere. Expect to pay top dollar.

What does the olden days have to do with it ? If it is price you can still buy wonderful Tomahawks for as little as $10.98 a pound from Wild Fork Foods. Order tonight and it is delivered tomorrow to your home. They send it from their store in Orlando

What Publix has prime? I always see premium meat, which is not the same, at my local Publix south of 44.

You’re right, the OP wasn’t asking how he/she should cook a steak, or where to buy one. Thanks for your tip about Longhorn. Smart!

The Publix at Colony Plaza and at Lake Deaton Plaza both sell USDA Prime filets. They are often labeled under the "Greenwise" name. But, they also have USDA Choice, so you need to read the label.
