I don’t think steak sauce is a thing in South Louisiana. Prime rib gets a horseradish/sour cream sauce. Au jus is common with steak. But we also tend to eat more seafood than beef so the standard sauces are something like Crystal Hot Sauce, Tabasco, etc. Ketchup for making cocktail sauce. (A lot of places serve oysters or whatever with a little cup of horseradish and you decide how spicy your cocktail sauce will be by adding ketchup and stuff.)
I’ve definitely eaten more calamari than steaks. So, by no means is this a universal concept. I’ve just never seen anyone put A1 on anything.
Fair enough! I grew up on the gulf coast and have traveled all over the deep south, have family from northern Louisiana, and my parents lived in Baton Rouge for a while- so i wasnt trying to “assume” for you! A1 (for me) is just one of those things that seemed so common i stopped seeing it and never needed to look for it! Like I said, you aint missing much, so im glad you aren’t familiar with it cause there are waaay better options where you’re at!!
