Beef is different around the world. So if you're a steak lover you need to know what to look for when you're traveling.

Porterhouse

This is the classic steak house steak that features both a strip steak and filet mignon, separated by a bone.

T-Bone

A T-bone is just like a porterhouse except the piece of filet mignon is not as big, because this steak is cut a little farther forward on the animal.

Flat Iron

The flat iron is nestled into a tender area of the shoulder, so it’s an exception to the rule that shoulder steaks are always tough. Plus it’s cheap.

Filet Mignon

Pricey and velvety soft, filet mignons make a nice splurge for special guests, though it’s really the tenderness you are buying.

Bone-In Rib Eye

This incredibly tender and succulent steak includes an actual rib, which adds even more flavor.

Strip

A New York strip is a relatively lean cut with a firmer texture than a rib eye or filet mignon, but the flavor is great.

Rib Eye

A rib eye steak’s abundant internal fat melting into the meat creates one of the juiciest steak-eating experiences imaginable.

Flank

You can quickly spot this steak by its flat oval shape and its long, clearly defined grain. Minimize the chewy effect of the grain by slicing across it.

Hanger

Each animal has only one hanger steak, weighing in at about 2 pounds. The beefy flavor is enormous, but a tendon runs down the center of each one, so cut that out before grilling.

Skirt

Like the flank steak, the coarsely grained skirt steak is cut from the chest area of the animal, so “chewiness” is an issue, but the taste is fabulous.

Top Sirloin

This flat, firmly grained steak brings kabobs quickly to mind because it’s so easy to cut it into solid cubes.

Tri-Tip

A tri-tip is taken from the sirloin area. It’s not so much a steak as it is a skinny roast, but you can grill it like a thick steak. Just don’t overcook it.

Ireland has been said to have the best meat in the world (well, except kobi beef), and not just limited to beef. No massive ranches with overpopulated cows and green pastures. Only problem being its a small nation and as such cant produce enough to export properly.

Because I love you folks, here is some secret sauce for when you're poor:

Get the cheapest big chunky cut of beef they have. Brisket makes a good choice, especially if it's fatty and on sale (Walmart will put them on sale sometimes for $1.48 to $1.88 per pound.) Be sure to check the "butcher's special" bin where they put the meat that will have to be thrown out that night. Do NOT trim the fat!

Buy a fifth of the cheapest tequila you can get. It doesn't have to be drinkable, but do what you have to do. Don't use the good stuff. It really doesn't work as well as Sauza. The point is to eat cheaply while you save up to buy that 750 of Gran Patron.

Marinate the meat overnight in the tequila and enough water to cover the meat, along with your preferred spices.

Drop that meaty baby, with enough tequila juice to cover the bottom 1/2 inch of the meat, into a roaster. (Swish it around to get the spices stirred up before removing it from the marinading container.) If it has a fat slab on it, put it in the roaster with the fat-side on top. Set it to 185 degrees F, and walk away tall for 24 hours. It will cut and taste like $10/pound steak.

I like to throw it in a hot smoker with the fat side down for about 30 minutes. The fat turns to cow bacon. Soooo good.
