Definitely a nice cut of filet for me is the best. I also like Prime Rib and Ribeyes.
And Filets are much more expensive than sirloins.
Never heard of the M0-M13, but sounds like bullshit to me, too.

Quoting CurtisMan (Reply 1): Ahi Tuna steak slightly seared with pepper around the edges - yum!!!
Although not "politically correct" nowadays due to dwindling stocks mine would be swordfish steak.
But as far as beef steaks, which was the OP's intention, I'd say a prime NY strip steak, medium-rare, with garlic mashed potatoes and either steamed broccoli or asparagus.

My favorite is a thick cut (1" at least) 3/4 to 1lb rib eye steak, bone-in-rib if im in the mood. I prepare them peppered, and then sear them in such a way that the outside is very well done (lots of blackening) yet when you cut the steak the layers transition from well done to almost rare in the middle. As a side I make Uncle Ben's wild rice.
It was a quick and easy and extremely delicious dinner I made many times during my college days. I would shock other people since they would never imagine a 125lb skinny guy like myself (I've gained 20lbs since lol ) downing a over 1lb of bovine muscle plus lots of rice in one sitting. Of course, I would get a major food coma afterward

My favorite is Antelope steak, I've had it a few times now and it's delicious. A smooth soft texture, not tough at all, but with a richness similar to pheasant or other small game.
Beef wise, give me a nice thick steak of any kind, just make sure it's the rare side of medium, nice and pink in the middle, but just above blue. I find it very difficult to describe, but I can cook it myself to perfection.

A nice rare prime rib or NY Strip steak will do me just fine and dandy.

Substitute Garlic Mashed Potato's for the rice, add some steamed asparagus and what you have is, "PERFECTION"

You are a raging, raging bastard. I had just recently gotten over my intense craving for my "whiz witout" from Pat's since the last time I had one in late July, and then you've gotta go and pull this bullshit.

Probably a t-steak....ideally medium-well, but so many idiots can't tell the difference so I take it medium a lot of the time. Ideally with more than a hint of pepper.
On the side, I have either mashed potatoes with lots of gravy and mushroms, or sauteed veggies with lots of butter (if I wanna watch my diet :p).
I always go for a Coke....God forbid I'm forced to down a Pepsi. And if there's no Coke, I go for mineral water with a few drops of lemon.

That is a good combination as well. Though I would go very VERY light on the garlic, IF any.
Garlic is so overdone nowadays. Apparently Olive Garden's/Macaroni Grill and other crummy wannabe authentic restaurants like those think the definition of "Italian" is to dump tons of garlic in everything

I'd have to say Flank steak. Marinade that thing in teriyaki for about 2 days and slowly cook it, and you have a very juicy and flavorful steak.

41 CXB77L: Guess we're one of the few who likes their steaks done medium well. Same choices for me, though reversed - I'd go for the sirloin as my first choice.
