HOW THE FUCK DO YOU LIKE YOUR MOTHERFUCKING STEAK NIGGA? I

>>8173873
Restaurant: Rare, because they always overcook so better to get a medium-rare or a nice rare then a medium.

Home: Rare w/ sous vide and sear. I just think the overall texture is better when its closer to rare, but I think the flavor is a touch more intense when its medium-rare.

Well done like my hero, Donald J. Trump.

>>8173873
Medium

Anyone who doesn't say medium is a memelord or just has shit tastes.

>>8173873
I prefer a medium rare when I'm cooking it.

If I'm at a restaurant I will always get medium because I don't want to catch something. Although I won't even order anyway because I'd rather not eat something I can make at home perfectly fine on my own.

>>8173873

Sometimes, I like a blue rare, only if I'm cooking for myself or somewhere with a great reputation. But honestly, it's so easy to fuck up that I never even bother for myself.

I mainly order medium rare, which is perfectly acceptable. But, I order my burgers at most chain/bars/etc. medium, just because I don't trust people.

>>8173873
Medium rare like any sane person

>>8173982
>>8173988

Is there really a problem with contamination if you get a medium-rare from restaurant chains? I've never experienced it myself so id never know.

>>8173994
Sometimes you'll get a medium-rare and it isn't adequately heated in the middle which would cause a minor case of diarrhea for a few days, or even food poisoning for a week. Not worth it in either way.

I don't think it's worth the risk. I'd rather just do it myself and there's no one to blame other than me. Plus 9 times out of 10 they never let the steak rest so it sets. Steak just isn't worth getting at a restaurant.

>>8173994

I'm one of the posters you quoted, and nah, not really. More or less, you're gonna be fine. I just find myself in a lot of shitty bars that can barely make a burger, or some diner in the middle of nowhere, where I can't really judge their overall cleanliness.

I think the main point is less "oh no, I need to be safe," and more "this burger probably isn't going to be the best thing anyways, so just wolf it down safely cooked."

Depends on the age of the meat.
I normally buy 4 steaks because I don't like to freeze them and have the first one as rare as I dare, then salmon the next day, then medium steak, then salmon, then medium-well steak, then salmon, then well done steak...
Just for piece of mind more than anything else.
But the short answer is I prefer medium rare. Remember that when I come to your house for dinner please.

My favorite is boiled over hard with a side of raw jelly beans.

Anyone else like cheese on their milksteak?

Rare. I'm too cheap to go to a steakhouse and order a blue rare steak to find out if I like it.

Not a fan of blue, no flavor other than the outer crust seasoning and the interior texture is like slightly warm gummy bears.

ive had medium all my life but want to try rare
how different is it?

Medium rare typically. Rare tastes too underdone, and anything above is hard as fuck to chew without a lot of flavor.

At home, usually about the same unless my parents are over, in which case I do well done (they are weird on it).

>Eating steak

>>8173873
Depends on the cut, but generally blue or rare.
If I'm in a high end place I'll state my preference but will say to let the chef modify if required - got an amazing medium ribeye that way once.

How do you cook a good steak? Last one I ended up overcooking and it was also tough. I don't cook steak often but I either really get it or really don't, might have to do with the meat I bought.

Medium, but I actually know how to grill a steak so it's pink all the way though, not just at the center.

however it comes. i'm not fussed.

>Once the heat transfer is completed during the resting period, this steak will achieve 'The Perfect Steak' - tender & juicy.

Now I'm curious. I normally go medium rare but perhaps I'll give that a try on my next visit to Mukrakers.

>Well done

Anyone who prefers that might as well eat a shoe.

>>8175053
Pepper steaks are best well done desu

I like either rare or med rare, or blue if its sliced lile sashimi afterwards.

However for thin steaks or marinated (basically always thin) i prefer well done.

My favourite Anthony Bourdain quote is the one where he calls anyone who gets their meat well-done a "syphilitic bedwetter"

>>8175054
You don't say? Excuse me while I sprinkle some pepper on my work boots.

>>8173873
Depends on the cut. If I get flank steak, skirt steak, etc., I want it rare as fuck, just barely browned on the outside. For fattier cuts, such as picanha or rib-eye I can tolerate anywhere up to medium rare, as long as the fat's nice and melted.

>>8175063
>implying someone with as weak a jaw as you has work boots or does any manual labor.

>>8173873
At home preferably med rare, so it's nice and juicy. At proper restaurants I just ask for the chef's suggestion; he cut the meat, he has more experience with that specific cut than I have, and he knows how the meat will work with accompanying dishes.

Well done with ketchup.

steak is for poor ppl

Who was in the wrong here?

Seared on the outside, medium rare on the inside. I'll go medium if I don't trust the restaurant, though.

Well done.

Steak is a shit-tier meal anyway.

Well done.

I prefer mine 'trop cuit', but it doesn't show that on the chart.

>>8173873
I feel like a tit, but if I'm at a steakhouse that'll actually cook it correctly, I'll ask for between rare and medium rare. If I'm at a mid-tier place, medium rare. If I'm at a shit place, rare because they'll overcook it anyways.

Medium or Medium Rare.

>>8173873
Rare is absolutely the only way to enjoy a fine steak. Medium rare if a plebe. Any other way if your a tastebudless asshat.

Am I a faggot for trimming the large chunks of fat off the side of my steaks? I cook it medium rare fwiw.

Why doesn't anyone want to eat a cow while it's still alive?

>>8173873
I invariably go for rare to medium rare, but I'd actually like to try a well done steak that looks as juicy as the ones I always see in these doneness charts.

Shame you've got a better chance of obtaining unicorn meat.

>>8175097
Obviously the chucklefuck who ordered a well done steak and complained about it being well done for the sake of bear-baiting Ramsay.

Rare. Anything above medium rare is a ruined steak.

Oh my god someone finally gets it
My mom and sister ALWAYS order meat when we eat out, no matter what. We went to a place in Spain where there was a lot of fresh fish and a lot of dishes you can't find where we live, and they STILL mostly ate steak
Fucking rustles my jimmies so bad

Rare steaks seem cool until you realize the fat is raw and not rendered. Which isnt a problem with flank/tenderloin or a similar cut, but with something like a ribeye it is absolutly an inferior way to eat it.

If you blindfolded someone who said they only like rare steaks and gave them a choice between mid rare and rare, they would almost always chose the mid rare...way more juicy and flavorful.

Had a blue rare steak tonight, I actually really loved it. Still prefer rare but it was quite delicious.

>>8176578
I'm so intrigued. Sinking into an expensive cut of rare animal flesh at a nice restaurant sounds amazing.

Who cooked yours?

The majority, if not all, of the bacteria on a steak is on the outside. If you aren't heating the steak to 160 (well done), you aren't killing any bacteria inside the steak (if there were any to begin with) below 160 degrees, so going to medium to 'be safe' is just pure idiocy.

If you don't trust the cleanliness of a restaurant, eat somewhere else or go well done.

>>8173873
Well-done
oy vey

>>8175951
I find this much funnier than I probably should

>>8176665
I actually did. Decided to put it on the pan for less than usual and it turned out rather nice, I'm now really curious what a blue rare steak at a nice restaurant would be like.

>>8173873
Probably somewhere between med-rare and medium. Realistically I would be ok with med-rare, but I've been to places where ordering it as such instead gets you rare. I don't really know how I like to order my steak at a certain place until I've been there for the same mealtime more than once.

>>8174028
Just stop

I don't think I've ever eaten medium steak that looked like that.

The thing i hate most about steak is steak-snobs telling me how im supposed to eat my damn food. Can't say when or where this "well done is garbage" meme started, but i'm finding it hard to express the amount of resentment i have for it and the people who practice it.
