spoiltmom 44 Posted November 27, 2012 This is an odd question sort of, but bear with me. I normally can eat steak with no problems as long as it's cooked right and I eat it slowly. Our normal steakhouse closed down so we've been going to a local chain grill place. The last two times I've gotten steak there so much of it is wasted. I can't chew it all the way up and I end up spitting it in my napkin because I'm too scared too swallow. It looks normal but it's not chewable. Is it grissle (sp?) in it or what? I'm so dissapointed because I love a good steak and lately I can't get one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cheryl2586 3,053 Posted November 27, 2012 I go with prime rib if I want beef. It is usually more doable then steak. 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
♕ajtexas♕ 3,771 Posted November 27, 2012 Sounds like the quality of the steak is not tender enough. I always order the highest quality steak, yes I spoil myself. I would try another type of steak or steakhouse. Good luck. 2 ☠carolinagirl☠ and CaGottaBand reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FLORIDAYS 3,040 Posted November 27, 2012 I love steak.... and sometimes my band loves steak. Other times it doesnt. That said...I wish there was a way to know... but since there isnt, I play it safe and always get a high quality beef of the most tender cut like filet or tenderloin. Sometimes a rib eye or prime rib is ok too. Then I just hope for the best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mayasgram 351 Posted November 27, 2012 I have totally given up on steak..no matter how I do it it just will not go down. Last time I vomited 5v times and that was my final clue this is just not worth it. I do love and can eat prime rib rare. YUM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TKW 501 Posted November 27, 2012 IT'S THE ONE meat I have never been stuck on. Sometimes when I am eating a meat of any kind I just can't swallow it cuz I can't get it chewed. I don't even have to think about it anymore, I just spit it out when that happens. I think you should try a better cut. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rayanne 283 Posted November 27, 2012 I can only eat the best cuts and I have to cut really small bites...I usually share one with my husband Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildrose1966 396 Posted November 27, 2012 I haven't tried steak yet. I did have a sliver of prime rib and all was okay. I am 2.5 months out and at zero restriction, so, who knows what the future will bring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CHEZNOEL 4,061 Posted November 27, 2012 I share with my hubby too... only lean tender cuts. I have never had a problem except with london broil...too chewy and I got stuck, so no more. Filets and prime rib or me! I am worth it! 1 TKW reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CarrieBrownsville 55 Posted November 27, 2012 My husband and I have always loved ribeye steaks and we used to eat one large one a piece. Now, when I want steak, I only take a portion of his and he eats the rest. Would I ever eat a cheaper cut? I doubt it! I had a sirloin once from Texas Roadhouse and what I went through with it almost turned me against eating steak forever! By the way, we have agreed from here on out that if we want steak, we will buy it and grill it at home - it's cheaper, I get it cooked the way I want, and we share without any questions. I've tried tenderloin, but just don't like the taste compared to ribeyes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lassie 247 Posted November 27, 2012 no cant do it or maybe I am just afraid to try. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spoiltmom 44 Posted November 27, 2012 Thanks guys! Sirloin is actually my favorite steak ever but the last two were just awful. I try not to get anything too expensive because my husband won't share it with me, I eat medium rare, he eats medium well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim1967 3,569 Posted November 27, 2012 Only time I ever had an issue with Steak was when I ate as a left over the next day. It was too dry and it got stuck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hely88 883 Posted November 27, 2012 I absolutely can not eat steak but I know some people can. I also just chew and chew and chew and then I am scared to swallow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
