Hosting a steak dinner requires some impressive culinary choreography — you want it to look effortless, taste delicious, and not cost a cent more than necessary. On top of all that, you need to weigh the fact that you’re trying to satisfy your guests, without prepping so much food that you’re being wasteful. It’s a very delicate balance!
There are a few safe bets for things that will be totally polished off (wine), and a few things that are cheap and prevalent enough that you don’t have to worry if you make one or two more than necessary (potatoes).
But for the pièce de résistance, the steak itself, it would be nice to know that you’re not going to be swimming in leftovers or leaving anyone around the table starving. So we asked an expert, Jacob Dickson of Dickson’s Farmstand Meats in New York City, to give us the lowdown.
