CONDIMENTS!
For cooked red meat, if you were forced to choose from only TWO of the following condiments, which two would you choose? You have to stick with your choice for three years, and can never, EVER use another condiment on your hot meat other than what you choose.
Note: There is NO option for other. You must choose from what is "on the menu."

Re: CONDIMENTS!
I red the poll options before reading your post, but I"m not sure it would've changed my answers. I went with mustard and mayo under the premise that I could create many more sauces with those as bases.

Re: CONDIMENTS!
I went with ketchup and Worcestershire sauce. Worcestershire sauce is a cooking staple for me; I always use it to season beef. Ketchup, that's for after it's cooked. Thought about A-1, but I used to mix ketchup and Worcestershire sauce as a kid for a similar flavor. Believe it or not, it's not too shabby if you get the proportions just right.

Re: CONDIMENTS!
I prefer HP Sauce over Heinz 57. Got hooked on that when I was kid in Scotland.
If I was ever tied up, and needed to chew my arm off to make an escape, I would hope that I had some HP Sauce with me to make it a bit more enjoyable.

yeah, HP Sauce should be on that list. A1 is a pale imitation at best.

Are you being facetious or asking seriously?

Re: CONDIMENTS!
Look. HP sauce is good, I won't lie. We have it in Irish pubs here in Atlanta. But for this particular poll, I am the hostage taker, and I'm not offering any damn HP sauce, so deal with it! You must choose from what's on the menu.colchar wrote:yeah, HP Sauce should be on that list. A1 is a pale imitation at best.
I have offered you plenty of options. Don't be a wussy and start demanding HP sauce while I am keeping you hostage. It's very inconsiderate.

You didn't say anything about being a hostage, you mentioned being on probation, so blow me! Jeez, get your own poll straight man!
Worcestershire Sauce is good and A1 is decent as well but, no matter how much I might enjoy A1 when I have it, it remains a pale imitation of HP Sauce and I will, therefore choose HP Sauce regardless of what the dipshit who created this poll says. If he stopped trying to move the goalposts (from probation to being a hostage) I might play along but, since he can't maintain any consistency, fuck 'im.

The best brown sauce in the world!
I use it for everything from steaks to putting it in pasta sauce and chili.

Seriously though, HP, A1 and the 57 don't stand a chance against Smith & Wollensky's Steak Sauce.

Re: CONDIMENTS!
I use/love ketchup on hamburger and meat loaf. But on steak, all I want is salt and pepper. If a steak needs a sauce, of any kind, it ain't no damn good anyway so why bother eating it? Now I do love to have sauteed mushrooms with my steak, but the steak must stand on it's own.
Count me in the "I've never heard of HP sauce" camp. I'm guessing it's some sort of brown sauce from what's posted above, and I'm not going to Google it to find out.

Re: CONDIMENTS!
I agree with your assessment of sauces on steaks, but only if you're talking about the bottled sauce variety, including the Smith & Wollensky sauce I reference (which I don't put on steaks, it goes on burgers, sandwiches, etc.). There are a bounty of sauces that, while the steak doesn't need them to be good, do enhance the flavor and make for a delightful meal. If you've never had bordelaise, or chateaubriand, or bourguignonne then you are really missing out.OZZIE4DUKE wrote:I use/love ketchup on hamburger and meat loaf.
