The first hot-dog cart in New York City was opened by the three founders of The Halal Guys. They decided to serve American food from the cart because of the demand from Muslim cab drivers. In Islam, the term "halal" means "lawful" and is used to describe meat that is permissible to eat. Many people in New York know that there are many street carts in the city that sell affordable food. People wait in line for the famous combo platter, a foil dish packed with chicken and gyro over rice, accompanied by lettuce, tomato, pita, and the famous and secret red and white sauces.

  • I am a professional chef with experience picking the best cuts of meat for almost any steak dish.

  • It is important to not overcook this cut of meat because it pairs well with many flavors.

  • The tri-tip and flank steak are great for grilling, but should be cut against the grain.

There are so many different steak options in a grocery store that it can be hard to choose.

It's important to remember that fat equals flavor when choosing a steak. There is a lot of fat woven throughout the piece of meat. A fat cap is a thick outer layer on the meat.

I cook different cuts of meat for the best steak.

Filet mignon plays well with a multitude of flavors

It is one of the most expensive cuts on the menu because it plays well with so many other flavors.

Sear this steak in oil with some salt and pepper to make sure it doesn't get too hot.

It would taste great to have a fat-forward sauce such as a béarnaise sauce or a red-wine reduction with cold butter. The bacon adds flavor and fat to the filet.

The T-bone is two cuts in one

The New-York strip and filet mignon are separated by a bone.

I recommend cooking this cut over high heat with just salt and pepper because of the full, meaty flavor of the strip and the tender filet.

Any brown-butter or steak sauce would complement each other.

The Tomahawk can take longer to cook, but it's worth it

The Tomahawk is a rib-eye or cote de boeuf, with a fat cap and at least 5 inches of rib bone extending from the meat.

The extra 5 inches of bone can be cleaned and cooked.

This cut can take a bit longer to cook than its thinner counterparts, but I think the extra effort is worth it.

Flank steak is perfect for marinating

Marinading and not over cooking are the two most important factors in making a flank.

To get the juices flowing, cook the steak in a pan or on a grill that is medium-rare.

If you cook your steak in a skillet, you should let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it, and use theMarinated for a quick pan sauce.

The flat iron is very versatile

The blade steak, also known as top blade, is found on the shoulder of a cow and is incredibly versatile.

The flat iron is one of the most tender cuts because of its great marbling and also has a bold flavor at a lower price point than other cuts.

You can cook this steak at high heat until the outside is charred and the inside is medium-rare to medium for the best results. Season with salt and pepper or add a spice rub.

Grill and slice the tri-tip sirloin steak against the grain

The trip-tip is shaped like a triangle and is cut from the bottom of the sirloin.

It is perfect for grilling but needs to be cooked to medium and sliced against the grain to be truly enjoyed.

  • The U.S. approved a new package of arms sales. The upgrade to the air-defense missile systems was included. Now comes China's response. Beijing said it was imposing sanctions on defense contractors. At least the third time the country has punished the firms, no details were given. After the latest deal undermined peace and stability in the region, China had to act. The island must accept Chinese sovereignty in order to be considered a separate province. Beijing has the ability to use force to achieve that goal. Over the past two years it has stepped up military and diplomatic pressure on the island. The U.S. does not sell arms to China, so the sanctions may be symbolic. Washington is legally bound to give Taiwan the means to self-defense, and its weapons sales always spark Chinese anger.
