I could drink A1 so there's that issue.

But very good cuts of steak don't need anything other than salt. If you want to make a nice compound butter with just a little bit of herbs in it, or some infused oil to drizzle over, fine. But don't go drowning a good steak in gravy.

A1 boosts any steak at least one grade (it's typically used with A0 steak to boost the flavor, that's why it's called "A1"). Top chefs in Japan (Nihon) will pair it with A5 wagyu to achieve the rare and ultra-delicious A6.

I don't even have a problem with steak with sauce. At all, honestly.

Wtf you wouldnt drink A1 sauce from the bottle?

Shit that is honestly what happens to 1/3 of each bottle of A1 I get one way or another. Pour some into the cap, sip it, or dip my finger in it and lick it off. Bad habit since I was a kid, that shit is delicious but I have an unnatural love of vinegar based substances. I will sip on rice or balsamic vinegar, careful when taking swigs of stronger vinegars though, the fumes can irritate your airways so dont let it splash into the back of your throat or get greedy and take too big of a swig in one go otherwise the shock of the acid in your mouth can cause you to instinctively gasp which will give you a rough time breathing for a little bit.

But really, I guess it's because most people want a very high quality steak and they think adding anything to it will cover up any subtle flavors.
