Where can you get a great steak in southwest Illinois? Tell us your favorite place.

Well, it’s been a little while since I introduced a new restaurant poll.

I racked my brain to come up with ideas for a new topic. Unsatisfied with what I was able to come up with, I asked a couple of colleagues for their input, which I received.

While some of the suggestions go against my own personal preferences, I know that like it or not, people want what they want. So I’m gonna suck it up and go with one of the better ideas I’ve been given.

So here it is (as my vegan self mentally screams into a pillow): Who do you think makes the best steak in southwestern Illinois?

Share your favorite steak restaurant in the form below.

Now before you type in your favorite places, please complete the validation form by typing “Yes” and hitting submit. Then you can make your nominations.

I’ll even invite you to include how you like your steak — medium, well done, still mooing (in my case, literally still mooing as he sits in the grass next to me and gets belly rubs like a giant puppy).

I will take the 10 dining establishments with the most mentions and include them in a new online poll, which will begin Friday, July 22.

Please remember that these unscientific polls are just for fun.

Plus, they help local businesses and provide great restaurant recommendations to readers. How can that be a bad thing?
