  1. I never understood why people use steak sauce. The stuff is horrid.
    I have always wondered what they put in that stuff to make it taste so
    nasty. I have never liked it, I tried all the major brands over the
    years, and it's all nasty. I just had a steak at a restaurant and
    they had their own brand, so I gave it a try. Blah Yuck !!!!
    It's all nasty. Does anyone really like this stuff, and why????

    I'll stick to eating my steak with nothing but a little salt and
    pepper, or some barbecue sauce if I want a sauce. But steak sauce is
    just plain nasty and disgusting. I find it hard to believe anyone
    would like it, but apparently some people do becuase they have it at
    every restaurant that serves steak.

    If you like this nasty stuff, please confess and tell everyone WHY you
    like it. Also, what gives it that foul taste?

    I suspect this is another "De gustibus" but I *like* A1 (and
    infrequently HP) sauce on steak!

    I don't like steak sauce, but I can tell you, I don't want
    barbecue sauce on steak, either. Yuck.

    I'm sort of with you on this. Never really developed
    a taste for it myself.

    I wouldn't go that far. I prefer the basic salt and pepper,
    but steak sauces are OK, they just don't add anything to a
    good steak in my opinion, so why bother?

    My favorite is "Sams best". The rumor is that it is made by a company
    known for gourmet quality condiments (Kraft). And if you are a shrewd
    shopper you can get it in a 5 gallon pail at Sams club with a free pump
    dispenser for the pail.

    I like it because it reminds me of sauces I might only find in better
    industrial restaurants and cafeterias.

    It's not my preferred seasoning for beef, but there are times when
    you've got a lesser quality steak on your plate and you must smile and
    pretend to enjoy it for the sake of keeping the family peace. And that's
    when "steak sauce" is useful for helping gag down a dry or tasteless
    dinner offering.

    The Black Angus used to have a steak sandwich with Jack Daniels steak
    sauce. It was really great and boozey. I would love the recipe, if
    anyone has it.

    Not all steak sauce is the same; there are lots of different steak
    sauces, so just because you don't like one brand doesn't mean you'll
    dislike them all. That being said, I think the best steak sauce is Heinz
    Ketchup. Yummmy!

    "Steak" places with their own brands of steak sauce, lets see....
    Golden Corral, Bonanza, Ponderosa, and Sizzler.

    There's your problem right there.

    I love Heinz 57. But usually on ground beef or poultry products.

    Reminds me of an anecdote in my Joy of Cooking cookbook where the wife
    cautions her husband at the grill: "Remember Orville, medium burned, not
    well burned"! ;-)

    Actuallly that sounds rather good but is it a 'steak sauce" or just a
    side condiment?

    I think it is because we cannot repress that feeling of horror that we
    experience as someone douses a good streak in some amorphous viscous
    liquid?

    Because it has a nasty bitter taste. I mentioned BBQ sauce because it
    tastes good. I may or may not put it on steak, but either way it
    tastes good. On the other hand, steak sauce tastes like [censored] to be
    perfectly honest about it. The restaurant I went to was Old Country
    Buffet. It's their own name brand on the bottle but the bottle looks
    identical to A1 or Worcestershire steak sauce and other squarish brown
    bottles, except for the label, and contains the nasty and bitter thick
    brown crud.

    Of all the replies to this message, no one has yet mentioned what
    ingredient is in steak sauce that makes it taste so nasty. Thats why
    I posted in the first place. What's in this crud?

    Maybe you haven't gotten an answer to your "question" because other people
    don't think it tastes nasty.

    If you don't like it, fine, don't eat it. But don't insult people who do
    like it.

    I'm not insulting anyone. It's my opinion, but that still dont answer
    the ingredient that makes it have a nasty bitter taste.
