The Best Steaks in France?

[L' Hobo]

A really good steak begins with really good meat properly hung and aged. The French fail to grasp this concept. In all my years travelling around the country, working and living there I only had two good ones. But to be fair I rarely ever try one as I don't want to waste my money and/or be disappointed.

As a farmers son, (many years ago) I personally believe that Beef does not need to be hung too long IF it was aged on the hoof.
In other words, killed later in life. The same goes for Sheep.

Lidl & Aldi sometimes have the more recognisable cuts, entrecôte seems to have different meanings, some cut sideways. Can't beat duck in France. Please let it be soon!

A few years ago ,my late Wife decided to try a French steak aboard the French ferry .It turned out to be " Cheval" ,but nearly hospitalised her. The cut of meat had come from an area of the animal where various vet's injections had been induced !! BEWARE !!.

Always struggle to get a good steak in the UK without paying the earth and even then I’ve had some bad experiences. However, have tried steaks from Buffalo Grill chain in France and have been very impressed. Usually order ‘rare’ and some of the steaks we’ve had rate as ‘best ever’ - I mean practically melt in your mouth. To the point that we now try to include a visit to a Buffalo Grill every trip.
