Fat does more than add flavor and keep the cooking meat moist. It makes meat more succulent because fat spurs salivation. It also lubricates the meat's muscle fibers, making it easier for your teeth to tear the fibers apart. Butter is the best fat for improving the flavor of steaks, as many restaurant chefs know. They brush steaks with melted butter just before removing the meat from the heat source.
