Like the title says, I sent my husband to the store with one instruction: get the steaks with the best marbling. He doesn’t cook, but he said he knew what that meant. This is what he got. I could barely speak to him the rest of the evening, especially when he ate our tough chewy steak. AIO?

    Looks like those cows were long-distance runners.

    Till death, or bad steak picks do us part. 👰💔🤵

    Time for a new husband, probably not the first time he’s let you down in the meat department..

  4. PiousDemon

    NO!

    But, TBF, it shouldn’t be chewy if cooked correctly.

    Yeah that sucks but its okay you gotta realize ex husbands are gonna make mistakes.

    I mean… those may have been the best he could find. That’s why I never send my husband to pick meat. If it’s that bad (and u have seen very slim pickings) I just don’t get anything and make other plans, whereas husband hears “get me a pack of steaks” and doesn’t want to show up empty-handed even if the quality is poor.

  7. 60 bucks for steaks looking like that is highway robbery

    He doesn’t know what marbled is I bet.

    Show him pictures.

    It’s like your husband went out of his way to piss you off. I say, grounds for divorce.

    Well maybe they were the most marbled. Without seeing the other steaks, you can’t really know.

  11. Have you seen Gone Girl? Because this is how that started.

  12. I mean if that’s the best they had, that’s the best they had. Sometimes the ribeyes at my local grocery have as much marbling as a filet

  13. MrJoeGillis

    Should have replied “Awww you picked up dog food? Thanks, no go on back and get some marbled steaks”

  14. Particular-Ad-3931

    Steaks being marbled or not won’t make it chewy. if it was chewy chances are u suck at cooking

  15. Fit-Breadfruit1403

    it’s literally labled “choice” your husband doesn’t know what a good steak is and or where to buy them. The grocery store ain’t it. I feel ashamed for this man

  16. Mike_spooky

    He came back with those lean ass steaks and a bag of marbles I’m sure of it

  17. I think you could still make something pretty effective

    1. Liberally season, Cast iron, butter, char both sides.

    2. If you need a bit more done, use oven for a few minutes.

    3. Add the rat poison.

    4. Let sit for a few minutes.

    5. Serve to husband.

    I know this is a steak sub, and I’m probably going to get downvoted to hell for this, but people who do what you just did really piss me off.

    You mentioned your husband doesn’t cook, yet you requested a favor from him involving food. He went and tried his best and when he took the time to make you happy, you shamed him and took to the Internet to make it public.

    People looking gift horses in the mouth are my biggest pet peeve. People who share this on the internet for Internet points are the worst form of that.

    Looks like his man card is expired. My wife would make me take it back.

  20. You cooked it bad if it was tough and chewy ain’t got nun to do with marbling that’s just for flavor

  21. I think I see some marbling in one corner of one of the steaks 🔎

  22. One_Lung_G

    Yes you’re overreacting and any weirdos saying you’re not are wrong. I’d hate for an actual problem to occur and see how you would react. Cook your steaks better next time and they won’t be tough and chewy too. Probably a good thing y’all didn’t waste better looking steaks.

  23. “Choice “, as in there was a choice to pick these instead of literally any other steak

  24. genealogical_gunshow

    If you make that kind of steak chewy it’s your own fault but you don’t seem the type to take responsibility based on how you play childish games of “I could barely speak to him the rest of the evening” you’re the problem.

    $60 for four steaks on their expiration date… and they look like that. Does your husband show other signs of weaponized incompetence?
