I like steaks seared, then cooked medium rare, for seasoning I like
salt, fresh ground pepper and garlic fresh pressed on top. Also a nice
pat of butter melting over all.. YUM

Mmmm. Especially homemade herbed butter. The recipe is on one of
Alton Brown's Food Network shows. The rerun was shown last night. I
