Check my flickr sig below. As well as two little guys are there.
I still have not met all either.

Sweep - what's with the Red Cape Ale in your profile? is that your favourite? pretty old-school considering it still comes in stubbies...

For economic purposes you can't beat skirt steak. Its similiar to the flank steak in that it needs a good marinating and to be cooked and cut correctly but the flavour is superb. As for the standard high end steaks I like a good new york strip personally but only if I can cook it I find 90% of the restaurants, (except the stupidly expensive high end places) don't understand how to cook a steak properly.
I cook skirt steak all the time using this Alton Brown method and it works incredibly well. Plus you get to cook on pure charcoal.
Just make sure you cook it from room temperature, use a little bit of good high temperature oil to help conduct heat and have a heat source that is blazing hot.
Oh and make sure the meat rests before you eat it.
PS: I've been street luging hills in and around Toronto recently, for anyone who loves to go fast you don't get to have much more fun.

ps. street luging? are you serious?

I think the best steaks I've ever had have tended to be tenderloin --- at least on the tenderness scale of things. But I think the cut has less to do with things than the other variables like meat quality, and preparation technique.
eg. it's really easy to make an exceptionally nasty flank steak.

Ok, now you guys have me thinking it is time for some carnivorous BBQ action!
Any tips? The skirt steak recipe looks interesting too. I'll have to remember to try that sometime.
