    Love garlic.

    Black pepper is underappreciated, in my book.

    Yeah, I put pepper on everything! My steak tonight had garlic, black peppercorn and a small dash of salt.

    Have you ever tried to mince them? Those bastards' skin got underneath my thumbnail and made it hurt for a week. That was the end of me hand mincing my own garlic (although i heard that if you soak them in water it makes it easier to peel). I'll stick to store bought, ground/minced lol. Good stuff though. I use it in a ton of stuff i make.

    That is ALL you need on a steak. It's the perfect combination..all I ever use to season steak.

    I sometimes use a litte Worchestershire Sauce just before it goes on the grill, but too much of it will dominate the flavor. I like to taste the meat.

    If I ever see anybody putting ketchup on a steak, my fork will go in their thigh.

    P.S. Worchestshire is good because it helps to tendorize the meat. But, as you mentioned, it has a tendancy to overpower...I blame the anchovies!!!

    pasta with olive oil and garlic.

    very minimalistic and simple to cook, but fucking delicious.

    garlic bread, garlic on pizza is also great.

    me too, and the garlic just gives it that extra oomph! i cook up a bunch of minced garlic in a bit of butter and extra virgin olive oil....just that alone on a piece of bread is heaven!
