In Texas, we make it a bit spicy and call that chili. See my recipe in the cooking thread here: http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=38887.msg756350#msg756350

Really, all cuts of beef can be tasty. Some with higher marbled fat content (e.g. Ribeye) have more flavor from the fat. Season with salt and pepper. Pan fry, grill, or broil to an internal temperature of 55-60° C for medium rare. If pan frying, heat the pan on medium-high heat before adding the meat to the pan, and add just a small amount of oil to the pan before the meat.

It's not as popular as foreigners think. We have a bit of every culture (hamburgers, chinese food, fondüe, lasagna just to name a few) that we consume regularly. I'm always surprised by all the "make me a sandwich" jokes on the internet, our women actually cook.  :D

About the steak - we don't really eat huge pieces of meat in one piece, they are mostly cut into smaller portions.
