If its really worth discusing, we should probably make another thread.
I remembered that the thyme on steak is from a Michelin 1 star chefs cookbook, if it matters.
I just made some beautiful filets (they came out PERFECTLY), and I sort of borrowed your thyme thing.
Before I put the steaks in the cast iron to put my crazy crust on, I put a bunch of thyme in with the oil as it heated. It was a very nice result, with a nicely subtle herb flavor behind the awesomeness of the taste of the properly-cooked top-grade meat. Thanks for the idea.
Another thing I did was when I rested the steaks, I did so on top of a piece of marbled rye. When they were ready, I plated it all, rye and all, then put my red wine mushroom reduction (a little sour cream at the end finished that really well) over the top of the whole thing. The rye at the bottom of all of that is a really nice bonus; it becomes very delicious.
Steamed asparagus and some roasted duck fat redskin potatoes with rosemary...
I killed it today. I am Mr. Popularity right now.
I think I just graduated a little bit, so now I will start taking pics.
