I reject this list in totality because it does not include Ole Gin Steakhouse in Section.

I've had two of the best meals of my life at that place, and we're more than willing to drive over an hour to get there and then wait if necessary (they're only open Thursday-Saturday, and the steak specials bring huge crowds considering how isolated the place is).

I've had great meals at Big Mike's (Thomasville location), Diamond Jim's, and Conestoga.

I've had crappy steaks at Nick's in the Sticks. If you're near Phenix City/Columbus, drive over to Hunter's Pub in Hamilton, GA. It's a great experience.

Got peaches a few weeks back in Section at Sand Mountain Orchard. Some of the best peaches and watermelon come from Sand Mountain, Ala.

Best steaks I have are at my house!

Agreed! I sous vide mine to a perfect medium rare internal temperature and then put a nice crust on it by searing it in a cast iron pan afterwards.

I do that with a cast-iron pan in my Ooni pizza oven. 800F+ at 30 seconds a side and it's perfect!

I don't know most of the restaurants on that list.

I've been to George's many times and it runs the gamut from above-average to great. Same for All Steak in Cullman and Big Mike's. Depends on the night and the mood, I guess.

The consistently best steaks I've ever had from a restaurant in Alabama are, in order, from:
- Helen, Birmingham
- Char, Madison
- Odette, Florence

Anytime you see gravy on a steak...RUN!

I do the same except sear it on a really hot grill...best steak ever. Thanks to whomever enlightened me here on sous vide.
