The key to make steak healthy is to have a glass of red wine with it. The tannins will clean your arteries .

you have to lay down a foundation for the tannins..a martini while you are salting the steak is a good vehicle for laying down a foundation.

I find that a gin and tonic, or vodka tonic, or two of either makes the grilling process go much better.

Could also be why I’m so happy when I take the first bite of my ribeye.

You don’t need any sauce on a steak, unless someone makes you eat a filet in which case you need to make a béarnaise sauce and I hope you have some fresh crab and asparagus to go with it.

God forbid you meant a sauce from a bottle.

You can also help your system digest the fat from the steak by having a glass of Cognac afterwards .

I like a nice bordelaise for filet which is simply a sauce delivery vehicle, nothing more.

Many times doing a ribeye in cast iron I'll make a butter, shallot, thyme and rosemary sauce while letting the steak rest a bit. A little Bordeaux to deglaze and reduce in the pan can't hurt either.

My dad is 72 and suffering from heart failure since June that he does not want to treat surgically or medically. His heart is pumping at about 20% efficiency.

He liked his hamburgers, soda, and vanilla ice cream. Extra salt on the burger to make it taste better.

It's a ****ty way to go and kills me seeing him struggling to get around. His parents made it to their 90s, so he should have had another two decades in him.

I like a good ribeye as much as the next guy, but it has certainly made me more careful about my diet and activity. I've been trying to keep more chicken and fish than beef in the freezer lately.

Everybody is a nutritional expert these days... all you have to do is go climb a steep hill to see for yourself what the steaks are doing for you.

That's not the steaks fault, its not climbing enough steep hills...

You fix the weight in the kitchen (eating less) and the heart by using the heart more. Exercise and blood fats and pressure will get in line.

Get your dad of sugar and no fries to the burgers and start using the 20% he has to increase that, he might still live to 90 with quality.

I don't think he will say that. Maybe a Met, Angel or Ranger.

Ribeyes are on the menu this weekend. Probably smoked.
