I was surprised to see no one even asked why after 18 years, you decided to eat the meat. Are you tired of being a vegetarian or did you just want to see what you were missing?
And yeah, a nice juicy grilled steak is sounding pretty damn good!

TM, again I must disagree. The problem that many people have with filet mignon IS flavor, but that's usually because it wasn't prepared properly. You want to prepare filet mignon with the fat still on, quickly (like I said, medium rare is pushing it), and, the most common mistake, UNCUT. I mentioned before that filet mignon is usually cut into a butterfly. The problem is MOST places that serve filet mignon cut it in half BEFORE they cook it, to make it cook faster. This also, unfortunately, also makes it dry faster, and lose the flavor. And the reason that it's wrapped in bacon isn't just to flavor it WITH the bacon, but also because the tenderloin already has little fat on it. The bacon acts as an additional layer of fat to keep the flavor in. Also, never cut filet mignon to check to see how done it is. The proper method is to instead push in the top slightly with a finger. If it is soft and leaves an imprint, it is rare. If it is soft but slightly resilient (recommended, because it might still be TOO rare with the first method, although not QUITE as flavorful), it's medium rare. Beyond that, it's too well done.

To reiterate- it's not that the meat has little flavor. It's that it lacks the protections for that flavor that other pieces of meat does, combined with the fact that many people don't order there meat rare or medium rare. If properly prepared, though, it can be as full flavored as any other cut of meat out there.

EDIT- I originally argued with myself about putting this part in, decided instead to focus on the meat's flavor itself, and now decided it was important enough. Simply put, what if you don't WANT pure beefy flavor? What if you want to marinade the meat, or stuff it? If you want to alter the flavor of the meat, then there ISN'T a better choice than tenderloin. And let me tell you, there are few meals I've had better than a filet mignon stuffed with cheeses (don't remember which, exactly... I KNOW one was gorgonzola, but I cannot recall the others). It shouldn't be ALL about the steak- it should be about the most enjoyable meal. If the most enjoyable meal for you is a pure steak, then fine (although I stand by the statement that that can be achieved with a filet that's cooked right). If you don't, though, then I would recommend filet mignon over anything else for the best possible meal.

That's right. You'll join us carnivores and all our nasty eating habits. Join us.

oh my god. McDonalds is like the worst example of good meat ever. Those burgers are definitely not 100% beef. They're in a freezer and they heat them up...

Get like a giant ass meat patty, spend a really long time marinating it with your choice of rum or Jack and cook up some really nice juicy hamburgers. Make fresh, crispy condiments and you are made.

There is probably nothing better than a nice expensive T bone, or any other juicy meats that Troublemaker mentioned.

Mcdonalds is probably one of the worst places to eat, you can eat a small burger and get double the cholesterol/calories of a much bigger piece of meat. I don't know what they do to their meat, but for some reason it is much fattier and artery clogging in every single way.

i can barely stand fast food anymore. the grease makes my stomach go topsy-turvey..

mm but i'm a meat-eater, i could never go vegetarian. it's a big sirloin steak with sauteed mushrooms, a baked potato, and some macaroni and cheese with dessert being chocolate yogurt for dinner for me tonight

that doesn't mean they're not 100% beef. last time i checked, i heat up my frozen meat so i can eat it, as well
i don't doubt that it's actually 100% beef, just the same parts of the animal that beef bologna and hot dogs are made of yummy.

One of my best friends from high school tried to do the whole vegetarian thing.

First she swore off all meat, then decided she loved chicken too much to do that, so a few days later she switched it to only swearing off red meat.

This lasted about a month, and she did pretty good. She was still eating a lot of chicken for someone trying to become a vegetarian but other than that she stuck to her diet plan, and it worked.

Then one night, a buddy of mine who was in college invited us all over to smoke, drink, and grill out. We got stoned, got drunk, and were having a damn good time. Then we busted out the grill and started flipping those sweet, juicy, yummy, dripping with greasy deliciousness burgers. They were evidently too much for her to resist, because we caught her hiding in the kitchen closet with a cheeseburger shoveling it down her throat as quickly as she could without choking!

After that we all made fun of her and made her the butt of our jokes. It was absolutely hilarious.

edit: Hey troublemaker, I have a meat question.

What would be a good cut of steak for me? I like it to be flavorful, but NOT a lot of fat. Fat makes me gag, I can't eat big pieces of it, or something that's too marbled.

I've always thought filet mignon, but is there something better?
