How do you like your steak prepared?

[reveal]

Me? Medium-Rare. Not quite mooing but not ruined to the point where I can't taste the flavor of the meat anymore. When my wife and I first started dating, she would only gets steaks Medium-Well. It took about 6 years but she finally started getting them Medium and she loves it. Now just to bring her down one more notch.

I like them so well done that I can almost, not quite, but almost, taste ash.

I always have family members and friends comment "you've forgotten your steaks on the stove" "aren't they done already?" "They're going to burn" etc.

Well done, though I'll take medium-well. Any earlier than that, and I might as well cook it myself.

When my husband and I first started dating - I was a well-done girl. However, his influence eventually convinced me that the juice was *not* blood and that it tastes better if it's red.

Now: medium-rare to rare depending on my mood and how thick the steak is. Mmmmm. Meat.

I like mine "medium", so I generally order them "medium rare". In most restaurants in my area your steak will be overcooked

 

[Crothian]

Medium rare to medium done depending.

Isn't it the truth?! That's something that it took me a while to adjust to here in the "city" - back in South Dakota it wasn't nearly such a problem. Blah.

With fresh blood still pumping through it - i.e. still attached to the cow

Medium rare for me thanks. My better half prefers to have hers flamed until there is no red even vaguely visible.

No pink... no black.

Generally that's "medium" or "medium well" around here.
