I'm a huge fan of steak. For me, there's nothing like the experience of a good steak; from the second you season it, precook, right up until you're eating it. So when I heard that the Longhorn Steakhouse was destroyed by fire at the ITC crossing in Mt. Olive, my first thought was it must have smelled great for a while. Especially if it were built on an onion field with wild mushrooms.

I kid. Coming from a long line of firefighters, including my father, uncle and best friend, I know how serious fire can be.

But I'm not kidding about how much I love steak. I've always been a huge fan of The Pub in Pennsauken, where they have a brick over hearth the size of a wall that cooks them and creates a smell that should be put in a candle. It would also make a great car freshener. But that's just one of the many great steak places in New Jersey.
