Hypothesis: A $20 prime ribeye will taste better than $5 (on sale,) NY strip.

Experiment: Grilled both steaks simultaneously over charcoal and oak wood chips to medium-rare perfection.

Conclusion: Ribeye was superior, better flavor and more tender. "Buttery" sums it up. Was it 4x better to justify higher cost? Yes, yes it was.

Thank you for your courage.

This here is monumental, thank you sir

I do like a NY strip but it has to be prime for me to buy it, you can get away with choice on a ribeye and it still be pretty good.

in general, prefer ribeye to strip, more fat

but looking forward to the next episode

Nothing new here......

I buy prime NY strips a lot lately. But I look at them good before picking a pack. I'm convinced the world of prime has got a little shady.

Well of course prime is going to be better. In order for it to be a fair test both need to be prime. That’s like comparing Bob’s Steak and Chophouse to Texas Road House.

If I have a choice, prefer a prime or waygu NY strip over a prime or waygu ribeye.

Also, I’ve never had a bad meal at Texas Roadhouse and enjoy going there often.

Need to add a tone or porterhouse to the experience. Maybe also include a skirt or hanger steak.

on my budget, any dam steak is a great steak.

For me, a ribeye always trumps a strip steak and I do love a nice porterhouse.

Ribeye is the king of steaks to me, yeah I'll get blasted for saying, but it's what I prefer. You can keep your porterhouse, filets, etc. Give me a good old ribeye and I'm happy!
