    I really like the Burman's Original Steak Sauce from Aldi. Apparently, so does everyone else because there were none on the shelf on Sunday.

    There were plenty of $4.99 bottles of A1.

    We recently bought a bottle of A-1's Smoky Black Pepper version by accident. Turns out we like it a LOT. It's a bit thicker, and the pepper/smoke flavor is quite nice.

    I like the A 1 thick & hearty once and awhile, but I like my own version of it. Iโ€™m not a drinker, but I add 1 ounce of Jim Beam whiskey to a 10 ounce bottle and I really enjoy the flavor it adds.

    Must be a poor excuse of a steak if it needs steak sauce.

    More than once, over the years.........after ordering a restaurant steak, the waitress would ask if I wanted steak sauce.

    Without fail.......I would reply......"No, thank you........I don't want the chef to spit on my steak. "

    On a good ribeye.........only salt and pepper are needed. ๐Ÿ˜€

    If ony a good steak you dont need anything why add salt and pepper? Its up to the individual to decide what tastes he likes! Some thing improve the taste of almost anything, like butter. I love the taste of a good steak, sometimes I love it better with different steak sauces.

    Salt and pepper are a seasoning and a flavor enhancer. If you're using those, why the distinction against using another - like a steak sauce?

    Restaurant steaks are often nowhere near the top quality. Unless you're eating at a place that's charging $10 a bite like Ruth's Chris. If you're sitting down to a wagyu steak, you should be shot for using sauce. But if you're at a Texas Roadhouse looking at their 6-oz Special -- go right ahead. (If you're at Golden Corral on "Steak Night" get the fried chicken instead.)

    We had lamb chops last night, which I grilled to medium rare. Wife had applied a dry rub but that's all. No sauce needed.

    BTW, as I handed her a Manhattan, I mentioned the bourbon in the A-1 idea. Her eyebrows went up in a most intrigued way. I think that's gonna be tested...

    If meat has to be smothered in sauce one must needs look for better source of meat.

    Same for fish, good waste of fish if it has to have tartar sauce on it.

    If a steak needs sauce, it probably isn't worth eating.

    A little bit of A1 goes a long way but on some occasions it hits the spot.

    At least with you guys we aren't arguing about appropriate salad dressings;

    When waitstaff asks if I need steak sauce, I always respond the same way-"is there something wrong with your steak?"

    I personally don't think good beef should be a vehicle for some concoction of vinegar and ketchup. If that's that taste I want, I'll order a hamburger and drown that with sauce. But to each their own.

    Another good topping for steak I have used over the years.

    3 tables spoons butter, 1 cup of sherry, slice of onion cut in half, 1/3 of a green pepper sliced, a few mushrooms. Cook over burner until onions and pepper is done, spoon vegetables and sauce over steak. Enjoy.

    Give me a bison porter house med. No need for no sauces.

    Those sauces were originally invented to cover the taste of bad meat and food.

    I'll probably catch Holy HE.L.L. for this comment but I like Heinz 57 much better than A-1 ๐Ÿ˜

    If you like savory steak sauce, try HP ... ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜Š

    HP is good. So is their green label, which is sweeter and fruitier. We keep A-1 and Heinz 57 on hand at all times. We both like it on various meats and don't care if others do or don't.

    Instead of bottled sauce, I like a smear of garlic butter or sour cream.

    We like Heinz 57. Dollar General has 5 oz bottles for $1 compared to 10 oz for $4 something at Kroger.

    Heinz close second to the best sauce the world has seen and it is GREAT on everything, COUNTRY BOBS!! Made about 15 miles from me.

    Say what you want I love a sauce on the side of any steak I have had and that includes so called high dollar places.
