I disagree. I like my scotch on the cool side, like a red wine is served, and I also like a splash of water. A small ice cube takes care of both, since I'm not storing my scotch in the basement to keep it at 50 degrees.
Its some cow. People can do whatever they want with it. It's not ruining it...
This. I always laugh at the steak "snobs" who think you should be castrated or forced to be a vegetarian if you even look at a bottle of steak sauce.
Steak sauce is tasty and putting it on whatever you want to is perfectly fine. Anyone who thinks otherwise is retarded.
Yes. And I don't give two shits what the steak snobs think about it.

Steak sauce is a flavor masker. It mask the flavor of what is it on. You could replace the steak with cardboard and nothing much will change.
Black pepper on the other hand is a flavor enhancer, it enhances the flavors of what it is on.
I occasionally make a red wine reduction, but never use A1 or the like.
My grandfather would reply to waiters who asked if he'd like steak sauce, "If the steak requires sauce, then I'm not going to eat it."
Do you put lemon or vinegor on your salad to replace the flavor? No. A-1 is more of a spice than anything else. Small amounts enhance the flavor. Unlike things like ketchup which over powers whatever you put it on.
brisket and barbeque- bbq sauce
sirloin or Filet- A1
Ribeye/NY- none
Pretty much what a poster above me said- the leaner cuts need steak sauce while the more marbled are moist enough as is.
Might as well eat the steak with ketchup.
