Agree. Filet is the worst.

If you do not eat beef it will sits in your stomach like a rock. Most restaurants over salt everything specially steak. Most people are so use it they do not notice.
I do not find anything appealing about it. It is almost foolproof in terms if cooking.

I prefer NY Strip steaks as Filet Mignon is too soft for my taste.
If you were unsatisfied with the $72 Filet Mignon, try an $80 T-Bone next time.
But, and I just checked, there is no law that requires one to enjoy eating steak. (Unlike Maine where everyone is required to savor lobster.)

To answer your question, I don't like meat that is hard to chew, even if it's the most flavorful. I DO love red meat, though. Filet mignon is the most tender (and bland) piece, so if you didn't like it, either they overcooked it or you not appreciate the lack of flavor, particularly if all they added was salt. I have to say, restaurant food is way too salty for me. But every Christmas I make beef wellington with filet mignon - yum.
I was told when I was initially diagnosed that an alpha gal allergy disappears or ant least significantly lessens overtime (1-3 years) as long as you aren’t exposed to a tick bite again. When I was initially diagnosed I could not eat in restaurants that served red meat due to cross contamination but can now eat red meat/mammals without issue but chose not to eat them until the one time exception yesterday.
Interesting, thank you, I may have been thinking of a different tick-borne allergy then. I'm glad you can eat red meat again, even though you didn't like this particular one!

Steak is great, especially rare with a good cut that melts in your mouth.
I agree on the short ribs being supreme, though. I made some recently that were divine, and then used the leftovers to make the most amazing beef pot pie with a puff pastry crust. SO GOOD.

I love everything about steak. The flavor, juiciness and all around mouthfeel. Ribeye is my favorite.

Meaty, juicy, salty. I have a steak about once a month and it hits the spot.

I've heard red meat is really hard to digest if you haven't eaten it in a long time.
I love a good steak, but only occasionally. I prefer long-cooked meat. I made beef short ribs in the crockpot yesterday with red wine and sherry. They were the bomb.

Sounds like the preparation was an issue. Steak isn't naturally salty. Someone in the kitchen had a heavy hand with the salt.

I don’t see the appeal either. My family loves it though.

It tastes good to me. Everyone thinks different things taste good. If you don’t like it, don’t eat it.
