when i cook my steak, it always turns like a bubble gum, hard to chew, it was a ribeye steak.

Shedoy,

It sounds like you're over-cooking the steak. It's a good idea to invest in an instant-read kitchen thermometer. You can buy one in any kitchen supply store. Look for 140 to 145°F internal temperature for Medium doneness and your steaks will be tender.

Microwave potatoes? Come on?

Love the steak, but hate potatos out of a bag, and the plate looks like an ash tray! Great tips otherwise. What plates always make for better presentation.

Get a really good sirloin, beat it with a meat hammer, marinate it in balsamic vinegar for half a day after rubbing it with salt, dill,black pepper, red pepper, onion flakes and fresh garlic.. Grill it for 3:30 minutes.. flip it for 1 minute.. Done! Amazing..
