So how do you like it done? My wife likes it well done, me I'm more of a medium to rare. A little blood is ok.
|
|
As rare as it can be without still bein' alive works good for me
|
|
Medium well.
My dad likes it pretty much off the cow(medium rare) and my mom likes it too well done. |
|
Sometimes I'll take it medium, but never well done. If I wanted it well done, I would've gotten a burger! |
|
|
Cooked through and through - no pink anywhere.
Christmas Day, I placed my portion of standing rib roast (or whatever it's called) back in the oven - I'm not eating meat that's sitting in a (albeit small) pool of blood on my plate. |
|
Yep. |
|
|
Medium Rare
My mom and sister like it burnt. "But the crunchy parts are the best!" they say. |
|
AKA: Blue rare. thats a perfect steak |
|
|
Medium to medium rare is a silly category because there's all the difference in the world. Medium rare is the bomb and medium is a waste of food.

There should be at least a chance it can be revived when it hits my table.
There should be some doubt as to whether or not I'm SURE to get in the first bite. Wipe its ass and wave a candle under it. Good enough for me. The only well done part of it should be where it got branded. But seriously, I do like it rare but it should definitely be cooked to some extent. The deep red of raw meat should fade to a strong pink. If the pink is gone, so is all the flavor. Well done beef is suitable only for feeding to the dog. I like it with Kikkoman soy sauce, or with Dale's steak seasoning, which is pretty much Kikkoman plus several other additives. Or a mix of the two. And smothered in fresh, coarse ground heavy black pepper and garlic salt before grilling. It is impossible to get an edible steak from any skillet. If there isn't flame below the meat, it's an abomination. You can't grill it with a skillet. Also, no cut of steak less than an inch thick is worthy of human consumption. I'm more into the 2" thick class. CJ |

Depends.......
Rare for non-aged cuts and medium rare for aged-cuts. Sometimes aged cuts are not trimmed properly so giving it heat a bit longer will hopefully kill any bacteria left. |
|
Medium... But, I have to admit that it depend son the cut and quality.
If I'm in a really good place, ordering a really good quality piece... I'm going with Medium-Rare. |
|
i like mine medium well, a little pink on the inside.
a buddy's room mate who was also a navy man liked his flame kissed, literally, throw it on the fire, immediately turn it, then pull it off the fire and into his plate. his motto was the more blood still in the meat, the better. i could never go that route but i don't like it all the way well or burned. a little pinkness left is the best. camaro |

Cooked through and through, no pink, crispy on the edges. Preferably seasoned before
it hit the grill. If I see pink, or blood, it's going back. Sam |
|
Seared on the outside, mostly pink on the inside.
I've observed that many women like their steaks well done. I've only ever been around/dated/ate with ONE that liked hers rare to medium rare. |
|
I like mine medium-rare, but I don't mind medium, anything more or less, and back to the kitchen.
The wife likes hers well-done, no pink, any pink show its back to the kitchen, but the problem is that she doesn't eat that much so, she takes it home, and ends up not eating it, and 2-3 days later, I will eat it, blah!. I hate to waste food. |
|
Depends on the cut. Thick cut, medium....thin cut, medium rare. Ribeye, Medium Well. Sirloin Medium Rare.
Pan seared or Cast Iron Grill pan cooked. |
|
We raise our own beef, so I take it rare to medium rare when I fix it at the house.
|
|
Knock off the hoofs and horns, and walk it by a grill on the way to my plate. If it moos when I apply my fork, it's just right.
J/K, medium rare for me.... |
|
Both my wife and I both like our steaks medium rare or rare depending on the cut. The blood is there to be soaked up with a fresh slice of french bread....
And for the record, anyone who puts catsup on a steak should be flogged and forced to be Rosie O'Donut's love slave for 6 months. |
|
Depends on the cut.
A really good filet is best rare. Most others I prefer medium rare. |
|
Bloody. Shit, just sear that bitch and serve it with the middle still cold. First to the kill!
|
|
|
|
|
|
Knock off the horns , wipe it's ass and strap it to a plate
|
|
If I don't have to stab it to make it stop moving it's about right for me.
You all have never ate Blood sausage. |
|
Quality steak: Medium Rare. And no seasonings other than a dash of salt and pepper.
'Budget' steak: Medium Well. And HP Brown Sauce or something along those lines. |
|
Medium rare is almost TOO done. I prefer my steak rare, be it ribeye, strip, filet, whatever. Blue for a dry-aged filet or strip. Blue doesn't really work for ribeye, as the marbling needs to be cooked to some extent. But medium rare is still almost too much.

|
I DONT eat steak. It's just plain wrong. I can't believe you people eat animals that have been subjected to such torture. I'm a big supporter of PETA.
j/k Had to get everybody all fired up. I like mine Medium Well. Bring on a Porterhouse baby! We have a restaurant about 35-40 miles away that has THE BEST steak around. XXL Porterhouse 28+ oz of pure heaven ETA- Link Bills Steak House |
