A good steak starts at the butcher counter.
Thickness matters, but so does the fat running through the meat. Those little white flecks are called marbling, and they help give steak its flavor and juiciness.
A lean steak can still be a good choice. Just remember it has less fat to help keep it juicy.
Do you usually buy rib-eye, or do you prefer a leaner steak?
