What I find in the freezer. I buy beef a 1/4 or 1/2 at a time. I voted for ribeye, but the filet is something really special. Just don't get as many of them as I do Ribeyes, T-bones and Porterhouses. I eat way more steak since I started buying it a side at a time. Ribeye costs the same as hamburger. I get sticker shock big-time when I have to buy meat a piece at a time.

My name is Josh, not Joey (surprise), and I reside in Central Ohio. I have been grilling since I could drive, and smoking for around 15 years. Over the past couple of years I have gotten more into just cooking, and really enjoy sous vide and the flat top. I find myself experimenting with different foods and new ways of cooking as an outlet to work stress. I use every piece of equipment I own regularly, with the exception of the electric smoker. That only gets brought out on occasion to make jerky.
My favorite beverage is bourbon. I typically have at least 8-10 bottles open at any given time. While I have favorites, I enjoy sampling new and different varieties.
Since these choices seem to be specific to steak, I'll be the first to vote for filet - for the sole reason that it is the best steak to prepare "Pittsburgh rare", and that's my favorite way to eat steak.

I honestly haven't had enough of some of the newer or less common cuts to comment intelligently on things like bavette or hanger. For me, I like the Strip. (And Sirloin is way underrated). This is limited to steaks. If you're talking anything, it's hard to compare a brisket to a strip or beef ribs to a ribeye.

I love beef. Any beef. A boneless ribeye has usually been my go to. But recently I have gotten a fee flat iron steaks from both Porter Road and Wild Fork. Way less expensive than a prime ribeye and man they grill up really nice. Very tender and juicy and very beefy flavor. This just might be my favorite cut now. Here’s my most recent.

How about Beef liver? Not the best tasting cut, but certainly the most nutrient dense part. Pan fried with some onions and ghee it is good stuff
