I don’t think I’ve ever seen strip hype. Ribeye hype for sure.

Fat = flavor and that’s why ribeye is preferred by most. NY strips are nice if you’re looking for more beefy flavor. Less tender than ribeye but not by a whole lot. I switched from team ribeye to team NY. But with one caveat. The NY strip needs to be American wagyu so you get that balance of beefy flavor and marbling.

I respect your opinion and we duel at dawn.

Just wondering, if you had to cook a NY strip and a ribeye, what would you do differently? You get to pick the thickness and doneness you’re aiming for.
I ask because I cook ribeye a lot but have not cooked many NY strips.
LazyOldCat
Overcooked ribeye at that.

Agreed

Ribeye is king, but sometimes it’s nice to switch it up. NY strip is a great option occasionally

A preference for a cut of meat is not hype. It is a preference. Some people like structure in their sreak.
I for one greatly prefer New York strip. Yes ribeye has its amazing place but I don’t like ribeyes rare and I don’t like ribeyes cooked Pittsburgh because the meat is too stringy for that kind of cook. But I love a medium rare ribeye with a good crust, but when I’m going to Pittsburgh my steak or eat it nice and rare, the strip has a better texture for undercooked steak

The texture of strip is what I really enjoy.

You don’t understand how one person has a preference of one cut of meat over another yet you just said you prefer one cut of meat over another. Maybe just start there and then you can understand.

Ribeye has always been more hyped. If you don’t want as much fat for whatever reason, strip and tenderloin are the go to.

Yes I agree 100%

Bone in ribeye for life.
When I get into that thin sliver of meat on 3 sides of the bone like a surgeon and dangle it into my mouth like a king being fed grapes….mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. it’s like pre dessert dessert.

Interesting since NY strip and ribeye are cut from the same muscle in the cow

Since when has there been NY strip hype?

The cut is a little too lean for my liking. Ribeyes are much better.

Not a fan of NY Strip. Bone in Ribeye is essential to good living.

I would say ribeye is the overwhelming favorite of the big 3 cuts. Strip lovers are the smallest group I would guess with filets taking second.

Both cuts have their own great qualities! But honestly everyone wins when it comes to steak if it’s cooked correctly!

Eh, I’m a tenderloin guy. I use ribeye for tacos. It’s all personal preference.

I love ny strip thin for breakfast steaks

The ribeye without the fat cap taste the same as the strip steak. Those two cuts are right around the same part of the cow.

The thing about a ribeye vs a strip is that anyone’s proverbial Uncle Billy can grill a grocery store ribeye and have it be at a basic level, pretty good. A delicious and perfect strip takes more care and hinges more on the quality of the cut. At a nice steakhouse, if given the option of a highly graded and expensive strip or the same caliber ribeye, I’ll always go for the strip in terms of value for my money. Plus, if a steakhouse can’t execute a strip, that’s the sign that they’re shit.

Depends on the situation for me. If I’m splitting with someone, I like ribeye. If I’m eating by myself, I prefer strip. I don’t think one is better than the other, they’re just different.

T-Bone is my favorite, followed by Ribeye but they’re usually pretty expensive. NY Strip is usually more moderately priced and is still a good steak. I hate sirloin. (Unless it’s on a sandwich)

I prefer a ribeye on a very hot grill, grease fire flame to be more specific (think steak fry!). It helps to render the fat and get that bit of crisp spy fry ed fat. But if cooking on cast iron, NY Strip is the way to go for me.

IDK, people choose what they like. Ribeye is a good default. I like ribeye, but tenderloin is hands down my favorite.
Chiasnake
I prefer a well marbled ny strip to a ribeye. But you can’t beat a good prime rib roast.
BLsnakecharmer1
I love em both man, please don’t make me choose lol
No-Feature2924
Both are good to me!

I can buy sub primals and hand cut my own steaks.
NY Strip is over $4 a pound cheaper than ribeye.
If I am putting the money into buying a primal, I’m buying NY Strip.
