I learned a small trick in a cooking class (or was it from watching
America's Test Kitchen?) that makes even a medicore steak turn out
great: cook the steak in a skillet with oil-- I prefer peanut oil but
corn oil works okay too-- and butter for a few minutes, then finish
cooking the steak in the oven until done; no salt or any seasoning to
make it tough until it's done. I like well done but my family likes
them medium well done. Steaks cooked that way turn out as tender as
can be despite the brand or the source. Ribeye steaks with a lot of
fat are best, though.

Now I hope to get that "ultimate hamburger." :-)
