Manny’s has been voted as one of America’s Best Steakhouses many years in a row.  Located in downtown Minneapolis, it’s considered by many in my hometown the best of the best when it comes to steak.

And they can kiss my ass.

Okay, maybe that’s a bit tough. But I can proudly say that my rib eye left their’s in the dust in the grand ribeye challenge of 2008.

This is a prime dry aged boneless ribeye topped with truffle butter. My brother Lincoln gave this to me for my birthday and it’s quite possibly the greatest gift I’ve ever received (after the birth of my son, of course).

Grilled over hardwood charcoal for about four minutes per side.  It was a very very very hot fire.
