Agreed, the Cajun marinade is very good. As well as the Chicago and New York Steakhouse marinade made by A-1.I like the A-1 Marinade...it is great before cooking!
And ruin the taste of a perfectly cooked baked potato!!!!I like a little on a baked potato sometimes.

I will have to try that.I like a little on a baked potato sometimes.
Always been afraid to try the stuff on a steak. When just a kid, witnessed an irate Spanish chef take a steak away from a diner and order him out of the resturant for requesting ketchup for his steak. As I remember, told him to go to Morrison's cafeteria for his steaks. Course that was in a different era, over sixty years ago, and admittedly I had no understanding of what was going on. Later my father explained to me that in good resturants the chefs were prone to consider it a mortal insult if one were to put any kind of sauce on a steak that the chef had prepared.When I first tried A1 steak sauce I thought it was great but not exactly organic. Does anybody know of any thing that could be better???
I agree with those who say if you want it and like it then use it. it's their steak and they can put whatever they want on it. The steak police will tell you a well done steak is overcooked and tasteless, another police group will tell you rare is like eating raw flesh and they won't eat a bloody piece of meat.
That what I was thinking. Whenever I order steak I always get it medium. I also use A-1 for meat that really does not taste good and I am just to hungry to turn it down.
Just judging from the lack of smileys I'd say someone is getting a little excited here. I think everyone should do whatever they like best. It seems to me thats all anyone in this thread was trying to say as well. Didn't see any looking down anyone's noses. I used to not eat steak. At our house growing up we usually couldn't afford a lot of expensive meats like that and restaurants never did it right. Now that I have learned a little about grilling and frying (thanks partly to Grillin' and Chillin' and partly to trial and error) I can cook a steak (or any other piece of meat) that comes off the grill or out of the frying pan with great flavor that my entire family enjoys. I still have some trouble with pork chops, though I dont do them often. :redface: Basically, what I'm trying to say is that you might as well eat it how you like it, sauce or no. Eating is one of the few things we, as humans, absolutely have to do that is truly an enjoyable experience. :smile::biggrin2:I agree with those who say if you want it and like it then use it. it's their steak and they can put whatever they want on it. The steak police will tell you a well done steak is overcooked and tasteless, another police group will tell you rare is like eating raw flesh and they won't eat a bloody piece of meat. Just who are you people to tell someone else how they should do something just because you don't do the same.
It's like that gumbo thread I read a while back. If you want okra put okra in it and if you don't then leave it out. It's still gumbo and someone will like it and eat it. Same for the steak if someone puts steak sauce on it and eats it then it must be good to them. Leave them alone and stop looking down your nose at them.
I believe BP was saying do whatever you like not what the police says you should like. Now, exactly who is the one getting excited here? I agree with just about everything he said, do you think I am getting excited too?Just judging from the lack of smileys I'd say someone is getting a little excited here.

I usually get thrown in jail for that type of attitude. The police never seemed to like anything that I did, especially when I was younger. Now, it seems, the police are the only ones I listen to.I believe BP was saying do whatever you like not what the police says you should like.
Great combination if you do this...A1 sauce and beer mixed about 50/50 makes a pretty good marinade on the steak before putting it on the grill.
Its real good. The extra taste makes up for the fact that pot roast is cooked all the way and has no original flavor.Steak Sauce?
How is A1 on Pot roast? That all I can afford
