Need cooking advice (shame)! Butter or olive oil?!

Here in the South we use butter for everything. There's a wonderful steakhouse here called Ruths Criss and they cook their steaks with butter. Melts in your mouth, but they use an open flame which probably helps the flavor and texture.

I sometimes do hamburger steak in the oven and after I season it and add the wotescher sauce I place a pat of butter on top and bake it in the oven. Turns out quite nice and you get all that lovely juice for your potatoes.

Wotescher sauce? I've heard of Worcestershire sauce

That's a "Texan thang," you uncircumcized Phillistine!

Yeah you know, "war-chest-ar sawse" as my Mum says it

PS - find a good nonstick pan. Solves that problem real good. Yes I know 'real' chefs use sticky pans, but they're less of a PITA for eggs and fish too


PS Mmmm, Ruth's Chris *drool*

A little known routine:

Costello: I hate mustard.
Abbott: You hate mustard?? But what do you put on your hotdogs at the baseball games?
Costello: Oh, I don't go to baseball games.
Abbott: What, you don't like baseball either?
Costello: No, I love baseball, but to get to the game, I have to cross over a bridge, and I hate bridges.
Abbott: So you hate mustard and you hate bridges.
Costello: Right. If you really want to burn me up, stick me in the middle of a bridge with a handful of mustard.
Abbott: But if you don't buy mustard, then the mustard factory will close down, and the guy who makes the mustard will be outta work!
Costello: I love Worchstershire-sheer sauce.
Abbott: What?
Costello: I love Worchstershire-sheer sauce.
Abbott: So??
Costello: You can put the guy who makes mustard to work in the Worchstershire-sheer factory.

Not any more, Rachel Ray bugs. She says "EVOO" to save time right? NOT! 'Cause she always says Extra Virgin Olive Oil right after it! Why give something an acronym if you are just going to spell it out anyway?! WTF>! What the ****!

Ruths Criss is up here too, it's a lot of places. The French also cook their steak with butter, or at least they do at french steak houses that I've been to. A little herb butter on top is superb. The oil would be if you don't want to add flavor, or if you are cooking at high heats. Butter will brown, and brown butter gives a nutty flavor which is always good with your seasoning.
