    Otherwise I have to explain everything in bloody detail

    So learning things bores you? It shows.

    Peter, on the contrary. I like learning new things. However, it's your
    "know-it-all" attitude that I find boring. I usually skip most of your
    posts, because you always adopt the approach that most readers should
    "know" what you are talking about, and if they don't, you automatically
    label them "idiots". You are fortunate enough to be quite knowledgeable
    about some things, so by all means, share that knowledge - but don't put
    people down for not having the same level of knowledge.

    Definitely marinate it at least all day in the fridge. But how much
    salt is in that McCormick seasoning?

    Jill,

    1/4 teaspoon = 170 mg sodium, so *4 *4 = 2720 mg sodium. Probably over
    the %DA. But oh well... yum!!!

    You could make your own- a little garlic, black pepper, crushed red pepper,
    oregano, fennel seed, and salt- all to taste-

    What is missing here is how much actually ends up on your plate. What
    goes in the marinade may not be the relevant number.

    Picked up some great looking Choice ribeyes yesterday at Winn Dixie for
    $4.99 / lb. In spite of the fact that I hate shopping at any Winn Dixie, I
    don't go there regularly, and their stores are depressing and ugly, their
    meat is always very good.

    Ribeyes are supposed to be one of the most flavorful cuts of meats. These
    are really thick so each one can easily feed two people.

    Can anyone tell me more about this cut of meat? If this were a Prime cut
    instead of Choice and cut off the bone, would it be a Filet of Prime Rib?

    TIA

    Renee

    We don't eat beef any more but personally I like them better if they
    are cut a little on the thin side - 3/4 inches instead of 1 inch thick.
    They grill faster and make a better overall finished product. We used
    to be able to buy boneless ribeye on sale for $4.99/lb a couple years
    ago.

    My favorite grilled beef cut is the tri-tip. Marinate it and grill it
    whole or in pieces. Yum.

  4. In Peter's defense,

    I think what happened was that I said that most Jewish people are used
    to Rib Steak because it is *a kosher cut of meat.* To be exact, I
    should have said, *could be a kosher cut of meat.* Peter zeroed in on
    that explaining what I meant, and that I made no pretenses that it was
    automatic. If you take a Rib Steak that was slaughtered under the
    supervision of a rabbi and then cooked with lard, it wouldn't be
    kosher any more. I didn't make that either.

    However, the objectioner was also correct to point out, for the
    purpose of leaning and understanding, that it must be slaughtered
    correctly. In other words, Rib Steak at the supermarket is not
    kosher, unless it is in a glatt kosher supermarket.

    Now, if you want to get picky, that's not 100% correct either because
    the supermarket may have purchased kosher meat, for one reason or
    another, but never labeled it as kosher. All firemen wear red
    suspenders and red hats....

    Maybe it's time, with the passing of a few millenia, that the Kashreth
    [sp] laws be reviewed and reformed.

    I didn't mean that Peter was incorrect in what he said. It was the
    remark he made: "I do like to assume that readers of my posts have at
    least some knowledge and intelligence. Otherwise I have to explain
    everything in bloody detail and they will bore most people to death."

    It just gave me the impression that he was looking down his nose at the
    rest of us (as usual).

    But thanks for the explanation anyway. I am not of the Jewish faith, so
    what I know about kosher meat is dangerous, so it's nice to learn about it.

    Tomatoes and oregano make it Italian; wine and tarragon make it French.
    Sour cream makes it Russian; lemon and cinnamon make it Greek. Soy sauce
    makes it Chinese; garlic makes it good.
