There isn't a better night in my household than when steaks are on the menu for dinner. The cut of steak you choose can really depend on personal preference, but I've always been partial to the New York strip. It's my dad's favorite cut, so it's the one I have the most familiarity with. (Nostalgia isn't for nothing, either.) And while some detractors wonder what the fuss is about with a strip steak, plenty of people get the hype.
