What's so good about it? Fundamentally... choice skirt steak and aged prime ribeye are both beef. Yet there's a reason one is $2.99/lb and another is $150.00/lb, and if you can't understand that, you really can't be helped in this discussion. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the analogy went *straight* over your head, like a Trevor Lawrence pass. Here. SAT Style for you: Prime rib is to pho as skirt steak is to chicken noodle soup. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAT Style for you: Prime rib is to pho as skirt steak is to chicken noodle soup. You can make both real tasty. But i ain't going to a Pho place that's gonna charge prime rib steak prices for skirt steak results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(And - just because I know I'm gonna lose you if I don't break it down into bite sized morsels - I don't care how well you make a bowl of chicken noodle soup, it's not going to compare to pho). 3 minutes ago, Tugboat said: But i ain't going to a Pho place that's gonna charge prime rib steak prices for skirt steak results.

Pho (and any soup that has different things in it) usually has lots of different textures. Meat, noodles, crunchy vegetables… I mean, it really just sounds like you’re eating bad soups. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LETSGOBROWNIES Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 I think he’s got a point. I’ve never had prime rib pho either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Satirical pho aside, tripe or seafood is the pho protein of choice for pho imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
