Ketchup/Mustard etc Condiment Thread

[Toto]

What's the most Omaha condiment? I say 1000 Island since that's what's on the reuben sandwich. While I like 1000 Island on a reuben sandwich, its also great with mustard.

Wow, I thought I had seen it all on this forum!

Ketchup on steak? Chuck Norris once roundhouse kicked someone so hard that his foot broke the speed of light. You know why? That someone put Ketchup on steak.

Is Hollandaise sauce on your steak an Omaha thing?

I don’t believe that’s the case..

Now for a Burger, I like ketchup, mustard and pickles..I can take or leave Onions..

I don’t even mind Mayo on my burger every once and awhile. Speaking of Mayo, anyone dip their fries in Mayonnaise? I think it’s a British thing.. I’ve even known people who dip their fries in Mustard or even in a chocolate milkshake, lol …

One of my late wife’s cousins was in town from Ireland and after buying a zillion pairs of Levi’s we met him for a steak. He ordered his well done and when talked off that ledge and going down to medium well, he reached for a ketchup bottle. I thought the waiter would need CPR. We had to convince him to try it without it. He did, and he liked it, but was struggling to understand why it was such a faux pas here when it was a common thing in Ireland.

Runza would claim its their ranch.

[Busguy2010]

Yeah, I was surprised ranch was yet to be mentioned. I'm not a big fan of it, but I know people who use it for all things pizza, french fries, wings, salad, etc. I really only use it for dipping veggies sometimes. I prefer bleu cheese for my wings, red sauce for my pizza.

Are there any other "different" uses for ranch that people do, or have seen? I know I've seen some eyebrow raisers, but I can't remember the specific items it was used on.

I accidentally over cooked a thin cheap steak, and I said what the heck? I tried the Ketchup thing, because that was right at the height of the Patrick Mahomes thing. It was good, but not something you do with a good, medium rare steak.

Thin steaks are for soaking in oil and sautéing for tacos or fajitas. Nothing under an inch should be cooked to eat as a steak.

Agreed, lol..

And, I would never make a condiment choice based on anything Patrick Mahomes does..that dude and ketchup on everything is completely whack …

I agree 100%, I like a thicker steak, but my budget rarely allows for that. Said steak was about a 1/2" thick chuck eye or eye of round, I don't really remember which. But those Family Fare steaks come in clutch on a budget. I scrunch em up to make them as thick as possible and I've turned out some good looking small steaks for anywhere from $2-4 per piece. They're great for a person like myself who prefers to eat several small meals in a day.

I recently got one for $.40 cause the meat department made a gaffe, probably meant to print $4.00.

But that said, I might buy a steak only every month or two as a treat, and I do usually keep it cheap. I do know what a good steak is but I'm very frugal, so I dress up very cheap cuts to the best of my ability and they have turned out very good most of the time.

I did it because my $3 steak was a lost cause, and it was right after everybody was making a big deal about ketchup on steak. I did it once, and it was kinda fun and goofy. And it really wasn't a travesty.

Yeah, if you ever watched the Chiefs in his second year, they made a big deal about Patrick Mahomes using ketchup on steak, poked fun at him, and many memes, and actual advertisements were made because of it. So much that I decided to try it. And it ended up like a burger with ketchup. Not bad. Haven't done it since, but in my experience, if you ever fuk up a steak, ketchup isn't that bad an option.

I’m a Cowboys fan. I could care less about the Chiefs or Mahomes ketchup obsession..

That said, under NO circumstance would I ever put ketchup on a steak. But that’s me. You do you …

A steak at a proper steakhouse should require no sauce, butter, or extra seasoning. Putting ketchup on it is an insult to the rancher who raised the steer and the butcher who cut and aged it. It’s also a disgrace to the animal who died for your dinner.

Really, ketchup on meatloaf is ok and having it on a burger are great, but a well prepared steak should stand on it’s own. Proud and pure of flavor.

I get it, really. But a lot of the time (if not most of the time), a cut of meat that reaches our table doesn't come from a happy, healthy cow, or a proud rancher. So IMO, to be snobby about steak has a lot of potential to be a farce.

And just to be clear, I'm not defending ketchup on steak.

While this may be true for some animals I do believe that this is not the case with Beef. You lose a chicken and it is a few $$$ Loose a ready-to-butcher steer and the loss hurts.

[Busguy2010]

I didn't necessarily mean death. Have you ever seen a feed lot? They are not healthy or happy conditions. And actually, a lot of them do die in the winter because they freeze to death over night in their un-heated tents. And I'm not being a crusader here, I like meat, but I also recognize the truth.

So I'm just saying it makes no sense to have a higher than thou perspective of how a steak should be eaten when there is little to no way to tell if it was actually a good cow or something that came from a feed lot. My bet is most of the time, the steak comes from crowded, cramped, unhealthy, unhappy cows. Especially if you are speaking of the restaurant and grocery industries. You actually have to look for and know that your cow was pasture fed to be confident that you got a good, happy, healthy steak. I know there are ranches that do practice that philosophy, but as far as what reaches our tables most of the time, I'll hedge my bets that they are mostly sourced from feed lot operations.

No problem not liking it but a lot of people do.

Early on in my career, I worked as an Engineer at a soybean processing plant. Did a lot of food grade oils and even food-grade soy flower We had the contract for veg oil for Dorthy Lynch at that time. We shipped it to them in volumes that were crazy so there are a lot that loves it.

I’m not into Dorothy Lynch’s dressings..but not against them either..

But what nebugeater is pointing out here shows there have been and still are, tons of Nebraskans who swear by Dorothy Lynch.. It’s sort of like Dot’s Pretzels in a way…

Absolutely. Some of those people look at you like you farted in church if you say no to it.

Too sweet for me. But then I grew up on Italian salad dressing and pretty much all others are too sweet.
