best way to prepare a steak?
Depends on the cut. I like 'em (filets) medium-rare. Get the grill REALLY hot. 3 minutes on each side. The key is let the meat sit for about 8-10 minutes. If you cut into right away, all the juice comes out.
1. buy steak
2. take it home
3. pre-heat the BBQ
4. unwrap the steak
5. when the BBQ is at a good (high) temperature, put the steak on the grill
6. cook it the way you like it (VERY well done for me)
7. pour a bit of cognac on it, watch your hair for flames
8. let it sit at a lower temparature for 2-3 mins, you may add pepper or salt.
9. enjoy!
that's how I do it, and it's very tender and not dried up.. just a bit juicy like it should be.. and tastes very good
edit: TLover is right, dont cut into it right away cuz the juice will go away and you dont want that!

Throw some Lawerys seasoning salt, garlic salt, and red and black pepper. Let it sit for a while if you can, but not necessary. Throw it on the BBQ and cook to taste. When done, put it on the plate and add a little butter to the top. I don't let the steak sit too long before eating it or it gets cold.
The fancy steak restaurants broil the steaks at some impossibly high temps of 1500-1800 degrees F and serve it on a heated plate (500F). I'm not so sure that's practical in the home.

Heat the grill for 5-10 minutes, use Montreal Steak Seasoning on both side. I cook the first side for 4-5 minutes, and the other side I monitor closely. I typically cook strip steaks but will also cook ribeyes too.
I marinate the steak in a sauce made from melted butter, fresh rosemary, hot sauce, worshterchire (sp?) sauce, oregano, and chives. I salt and pepper the steaks and put them on a very hot grill. As I'm grilling the steaks, I brush the same but a separate sauce from the one that i marinated it in. Very yummy.

please? we can
and then we can
and (will not remember what happens) and after that
sounds good to me what about you?
Put a little Worschestire on the steak. Then put a healthy amount of garlic and black pepper on it. NEVER salt uncooked meat, it pulls all the juices out as it cooks.
Everyone is right about a very HOT grill and letting the meat rest a few minutes before slicing. This is due to the meat coagulates as it cooks. When the meat starts to cool, the muscles relax and the juice flows out to the ends of the meat again.

as for the steak, i agree with the ruth's chris theory though there are better steak places (at least in LA)
My vote goes to Flemings in LA for an awesome steak. Way better than Ruth's.
As for preparing a steak, I like to take a hot cast iron pan, braise the steak for about 2 min or each side, then toss it in a 500 degree oven for about 8-10 min (med-med rare). LET IT REST FOR AT LEAST 10min then cut and eat.

that's what i was thinking too....no way i'd wait 10mins to eat it 
i just grill mine on med heat...dunno how long, but i like mine med - med well. and then i coat it in bbq sauce. or else my mom's got a sweet marinade....but that involves letting them soak overnight, so you gotta be prepared for that one...

Simple is best if grilling Salt Pepper, touch of olive oil for lubrication on the grill.
Cook to Rare med Rare. Rest 5-10 minutes and top with a nice homemade compound butter for richness.
However, if you are a true carnivore, Carpaccio is the best. Thin slice filet, pound out to paper thin, lay out on platter, top with shaved Peccorino Romano, best quality olive oil, reduced balsamic vinegar syrup and fresh basil, Coarse ground S/P goes without saying. This is the best appetizer ever. Yes, this is raw, but as thin as it is, the flavor and texture are unmatched. Do look for the best quality filet possible.

Maybe tomorrow night?
I also have quite a bit of beer and alcohol. Bring your own steak and ID.

Definitely BYOS! I will supply beverages and the location. The least everyone can do is bring their own steak.
