How do you like your steak?

I'll eat it anywhere from rare to medium-well and like it, but right around medium/medium-rare is perfect.

 

[Double D]

Medium-well

 

[ABCs]

Between medium and medium well. I don't like it bleeding still on my plate but I also don't like it tasting like a frigg'n rock. Same way I like my burgers.

 

[tucker01]

I never understood why people order Medium well or more cooked. Might as well order a piece of cardboard.

Medium Rare, but have eaten raw beef before.

 

[Witchblade]

A good cook should be able to make a medium-well or even well-done steak without it being too dry or tasting like cardboard.

Medium Rare, but have eaten raw beef before.

It's like I said, if a person orders their steak well-done, they don't really like steak.

those people should stick to steak. chicken fried fried steak that is

 

[DOMS]

I use to order my steaks well-done, but then I realized I was just a hamburger guy.

It wasn't until I started to move down on the cooking chart that I discovered what steak really tastes like.

Now, depending on the steak, I take it medium or medium-rare.

 

[Jodi]

Gotta be partially mooing still for me.

 

[leg_press]

Used to have my steak well done, but it made me jaw ache, at a cousins wedding it was 'medium or nothing' and I loved it, so medium all the way

 

[vortrit]

I'm cooking my sunday steak right now!

if you eat your steak well done and with BBQ sauce of any sort on it you should stop eating steak all together

ask a chef (not the guy at the local sizzler) how a steak is supposed to be eaten and they will say no more cooked then med, and with very basic seasoning

i guess i am from alberta and have never put a steak in my mouth that is below AAA, so i have a slightly tainted view...

I don't put anything on my steak. Not even salt or pepper.

 

[fufu]

Medium. If it is a filet mignon, maybe medium rare.

You may not be aware of this, but chicken and beef are two different kinds of meat. Now that you're aware of this, you'll understand that they have different cooking characteristics.

I hope that wasn't too confusing for you.

I am aware chicken has different properties than steak. I am just saying that people have different tastes and I think it's rather a pride issue when you say you like it rare and anyone who doesn't like it the way you do is fooling themselves. Are you right about everything?

I cook my own steak all the time, cook it medium or medium-well and if you know how to do it right like I do, you'll be very pleased with it and not even consider putting any sort of liquid sodium bomb on it (sauce). I've eaten rare steak and I thought it was very akward tasting. Didn't look right, didn't feel right when I was chewing it... forget it.

Also I hope you all are cooking your burgers all the way through, once meat is ground up you have to cook it 100% to kill any bacteria that may be present.

The simple truth of it is that if you cook a steak too much, you've killed most of the flavor and you might as well just eat hamburger. And I don't like raw steak either. I don't like the texture and I also don't like the fact that the French do it.

I usually cook them to medium-well and I've never gotten ill from it. Hell, I ate at Jack in the Box during the ecoli scare, and still didn't get ill.

 

[Plateau_Max]

Ick, Jack in the Box... I looooved that stuff back when used to eat fast food. Ah fond memories of eating 8 super-tacos... back when they were still called super-tacos.

Yeah but seriously dude, my steak tastes amazing how can you say I've killed the flavor? I do cook medium sometimes too, a slight bit of pink in the middle doesn't bother me but more pink/red than brown does. I don't like the texture and I'm very health minded which includes risk of disease.

You can be right without everyone else being wrong, that's all I'm saying.

 

[tucker01]

Nope he is right. Anything more then Medium Rare is Wrong

 

[Plateau_Max]

*sigh* hopeless

 

[JerseyDevil]

Medium rare for sure. Mmmm, filet mignon.

 

[largepkg]

[Plateau_Max]

Alright you friggin vampires, you win! I'll just enjoy eating my "not steak"

 

[DOMS]

I scoff in your general direction.

 

[kinkery]
