best steakhouse *bang for the buck

[jreifsch80]

Safeway has better meat than King Soopers. Costco is better yet (if you can stand the DNC donations). I'll go to the butcher shop for company sometimes but not always.

if you're buying beef at the big stores in colorado it is generally either coming from excel in ft morgan or JBS in greeley. while some stores might vary from what they get they are all generally the same grades.

i'm a livestock nutritional consultant so i like to get my beef from the feedlots i work with(specifically from one who's kid was on the university of wyoming cattle judging team).....some of the best beef you'll ever have for about 2-2.50 per pound 45 day aged and processed

Western trails out my way has great prime rib and steaks.

your food reviewing privileges have been revoked. King soopers has terrible meat terrible. (may be no better than safeway but i don&#39;t happen to shop at safeway) King soopers meat if it was FREE would not be worth it. Find a real butcher, they are around and get real meat. worth every penny. (Frank&#39;s in Longmont, Wally&#39;s in Broomfield, not sure of others)

I get my meat from Tonys Market in Castle Pines. However, the best alernative I have found which is less expensive is the Angus at King Soopers. I wont change my review on that. Next time Im up north Ill stop by one of the places you mentioned. Thanks for the recommendations.</p>

Ranch foods direct in the springs has great quality beef and buffalo meat. They also deliver.

Went to Shanihan's last night for my B-day. Had a pretty good NY strip. Their house salad balsamic vinaigrette is very nice with a fresh basil flavor. The lemon cake for dessert was dynamite. I need to go back to Del Frisco's to compare again. That's my usual go-to for a fancy evening out.

I usually do steaks at home. No need to fire up the grill. I use a smokin' hot cast iron skillet that's preheated with the oven to 500 degrees. Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper on the steaks and pan seared on the range with a little butter for several minutes on each side and then into the oven for a few minutes to finish. Let the meat rest for a few minutes before you cut into it and it's very tasty and juicy.

The wife knows someone who's in the meat business and in addition to Tony's, they also serve many of the Sam's clubs in the area. Their choice Angus meats are very good.

I also get my pork loin ribs from them and they are dynamite.

Grass fed Black Angus that I get from my brother in MT every year ($2.65/lb last year, processed, wrapped & frozen. We buy either 1/2 or whole steer) , Canola oil, sea salt & cracked pepper, grilled on my grill. Drop a spat of real butter on and rest 5 minutes.

This place is decent too. http://www.steakhouse10.com/

Steakhouse 10 is my vote. Although best bang for your buck is grilling it yourself.

Teds Montanna Grill - Belmar.

King Soopers Angus Ribeye (See the butcher) Coarse sea salt and pepper. Grille at 400 degrees 8 minutes on each side. That beats 99% of any steakhouses out there.

EIGHT MIN PER SIDE.!!!!!!!!!! SON THAT'S A HANGING OFFENSE

Boom! There it is. We just went there for dinner tonight and this place was awesome. We had rattlesnake, rocky mountain oysters, ostrich, bison & Elk. Oldest restaurant in Colorado & and the history is incredible. It's like going to dinner and a museum all at once since they're celebrating their 120th year. The bar was made in Germany in 1837 and shipped over and then brought in by ox cart. The Colorado liquor license is literally #1. This place is great and if you haven't been you must go.

A great place when you have extra coin

REVOKED?? see my reply. He should be hanged. If it ain't bleeding , mooing and still kicking you just made beef jerky.

For a "real" butcher we drive to Arapaho Meats in louisville. Friend of ours (Dustin) owns the place and the steaks are cut with your fork. The pork chops are nice and juicy too.

When you pay $12+ for a nice cut of meat for us it's worth the drive.

I see there's a "butcher" on Harmony rd i want to check out. Also Choice City Deli (been a while) has some very nice cuts of meat.
