Insult me however you’d like, but I’d almost always prefer a filet over ribeye (or any other cut).

It has become very faddish in the past ten years or so to claim that any steak without tons of fat has "no flavor" [sic].

Of course fine filet has tons of flavor – it's clean and intensely beefy and very tender – it's my preferred cut as well. But I don't need every bite of meat I eat to be drowning in fat.

it's not just fat, compare for example to an outside skirt steak, it is no more fatty but much more flavorful
