    Do you prefer cooking a nice steak at home, or going out and having it perfectly prepared and...

    served to you for 3 times the price?

    I prefer to have it perfectly prepared and served to me for 3 times the price.  I think it tastes better when I'm dressed up, using a cloth napkin, and drinking wine I can't pronounce.  I don't know what taste buds these things innervate, but I know it tastes better.

    I can not cook a very good steak my self and if not for my husbands love of steak I probably would not try to cook them at all!

    Either way steak is steak, and sometimes we get dressed up (my husband and I) for a romantic dinner at home. It's romantic, candle lit, intimate, and just the two of us enjoying wine, and a home cooked steak, baked potato, and desert. I think the thought being put into the meal, makes it taste that much better, anyone can go to a restaurant and order a steak.

    As an amateur chef with a very discerning pallet, I prefer to cook it myself. This way I guarantee the freshness and can season it to my taste and cook it to my taste too.

    I doubt anyone can prepare mine to my liking as well as I can, but going out is nice once in a while.

    I love going out on occasion for a nice steak dinner, but am usually disappointed.  No one makes a steak like the filet mignon my husband marinates and cooks outside on the grill!

    I prefer going out not because I cannot make a good steak dinner but because it is an opportunity to get waited on and there is no clean up.

    I have been a professional butcher for over 20 years. I can't go into a restaurant with a clear conscience and pay $20.00 for a steak dinner that I know cost the eatery less than $3.00 to prepare.

    Rather, I would choose and cut the meat myself and prepare it for my family and friends.

    Yes it is true. The butcher's family always gets the best cuts of meat.
