Salt & Pepper, Heinz 57, A-1 Sauce, or Other?

Texas BBQ Rub grilling spice is a big hit around here right now.
Sauce, we dont need no stinkin' sauce!!!
 
I like salt and pepper, occaisonally A-1 sauce.

With prime rib, horseradish is a must have.

Salt and pepper. The pepper should be coarsely ground and the salt should be sea salt, but one must make do with what they have. I don't personally see anything wrong in adding a bit of garlic as well.

I often see horseradish sauce served with prime rib. Since the flavor compliments (rather than overpowers) the beef I'll accept this, but I still hold that you're better off with salt and pepper.

Putting steak sauce on your steak will get you thrown out of my house. If you must have sauce, let me know ahead of time and I'll make you a proper au poivre-style wine sauce to accompany it but do not ask for A1. It's a crime against beef to serve that swill.

Generally I don't care for horseradish sauce as I prefer the real deal but then perhaps I've never had any really good *horseradish sauce.*:o

As I said already, I prefer salt and pepper but I would really like to try out your recipe for your, "au poivre-style wine sauce." Dave!:thumbup: :D
Probably the closest thing to your sauce that I've eaten was when we reserved two really wonderful 2-1/2" thick 6"-7" diameter beef shanks from Perry's Meat Market and followed a recipe we had that called for a nice red wine and lots of other goodies and a long slow cooking time. They turned out to be some of the absolute best beef we have ever had even though they weren't steak.:thumbup: :D :cool:

Coarse pepper and salt...unless it's flavorless and such things do happen. Jim Beam makes a nice steak sauce for those unfortunate occasions.

Yep, occasionally such unfortunate occasions do happen because some people can absolutely ruin the finest cut of meat to be found.:(
I don't recall seeing the Jim Beam Sauce so will have to look for it.
I believe I've seen some Jack Daniel's BBQ Sauce advertised but since I'm spoiled to my Barbie's there is no sense in trying it at all.

I'm pleased to no end to see all of the purists here but I had a feeling that's what I would see from this bunch anyway!:thumbup: :D :cool:
 
Barbie's BBQ sauce is fantastic, but just coarse ground black pepper and salt on my steak. Save the sauce for my chicken:)
 
Either Kosher or Sea Salt,Fresh Ground Pepper and here is the key................

real British Lea and Perrins Worcestershire Sauce. Do not use the American L and P, it is

crap. The real stuff is based on malt vinegar and it doesn't have that harsh chemical

aftertaste. I get my L and P in Canada,but I know there are several U.K. import sites on the

net.
