marinate it in some acidy marinate, like italian dressing or A1. The acid will help break down the fibers and make the meat sooooo tender. Or just stop being cheap and go buy a good cut of meat.

I feel the need...
Def marinate all teh way. Try my recipe:
Ingredients, in no particular amounts, I just throw it in a glass jar with tenderloin.
Cabernet (of your choice)
Vinegar
Lemon Juice
Worcestershire Sauce
Soy Sauce
Whole Milk
Olive Oil
Tabasco
100% Maple Sugar
Ground Whole Black Pepper
Those are the basic ingredients, sometimes I'll throw in some various spices. Marinate at least 24 hours in advance.
Very tasty

A1 sauce covers up the taste of the meat. If you put A1 on a steak all you taste is A1. Might as well put some A1 on a slice of bread. It'll save you a few bucks and taste exactly the same.

why cover up the natural taste of beef, just simply sprinkle sea salt and black pepper. let it sit at room temperature then throw it on a really hot grill for 3 minutes each side. Mmmmm bloody goodness.

That was uncalled for...
On another note: Is there any other food better then beef? Like a really nice cut....tender and juicy and oh so flavourful.......GOD DAMNIT I LOVE RED MEAT!!!!!

I agree 100% with this, my dad does this and it just makes me wonder why he even buys steak. He could buy liver and get the same results of meat with A1 sauce.
I eat no steak sauce on steak, eat it nice and bloody.

Plus I don't like the taste of A1.Also, if you go to a ''real' steak house and ask for A1, it's taken as an insult to the chef. I can't believe a waiter at a nice steak house asked me if I wanted A1. When I said no, he said "good choice" wtf?

I can't eat a bloody steak. Gotta be medium to medium well for me. What's the deal with eating rare to med. rare steak? It's probably more tender, but shit...all that blood? Yuck! I date a chic who liked her steak basically rare! Her daddy worked at steakhouse. I ate at a 4-5 start restaurant and I really tried to eat it the way the chef recommended it, but my brain couldn't take it and had to send it back three times. The spit that was in it made it taste that much better
So tell me, what's the whole idea, fascination, etc.. with eating a steak bloody? I'm really trying to understand.

The only beef we need to tenderize is a flank stake. (for that we use a spicy bulgogi marinade (Korean marinade).
The rest of the beef is already a very good cut of meat so it doesn't need it.

i jab it with a fork a few times, then put it in a plastic container with some zesty marinade from wegmans. I like A1, but with that marinade you really do not need anything else.
