Poll: How do you like your steak?

[duchaked]

...dead...

medium rare is what I'd say, altho medium would prob work well for me too

 

[Gigaguy64]

Very Very well done.

If its still pink then its still alive and i will not eat it.

 

[Diligent]

My preference is usually medium rare, but once in a while I'll go for the "so rare a good vet could still save it" option.

 

[Reaver3]

im a fan of medium... Nothing more, nothing less

 

[Zantos]

Medium. I like it to still be juicy but have stopped transfusing.

My housemate used to like it blue. I swear they just showed the steak a picture of a mildly warm pan then served it up.

 

[SinisterGehe]

It got to have blood in it... I don't know I just enjoy the taste of blood and raw meat mixed with cooking oil, marinade and gravy. + blood that oozes to the plate and gets mixed with gravy is delicious with potatoes.

I have no idea what those terms mean. I like it red in the middle (not bleeding, but almost uncooked) and kinda pink.

Juicy, but crisp on the outside.

 

[Dana22]

Well Done to Very Well Done .

 

[Lionsfan]

I prefer Medium. Still got some juiceyness but it's not too undercooked

 

[Nimcha]

Medium.

But ever since I had a steak in Kobe nothing else comes close anymore...

Tear its horns off and wipe its ass

 

[MercurySteam]

Medium. Though most of the time I get medium rare.

 

[Hazy]

I have no idea...

See, I've had steak a few times and I didn't like it. But it was baked and I get the feeling it's supposed to be grilled.

I think I should have to try some more types.

The trick is to marinate it in Teriyaki for a few hours before taking it to a grill.

The best type of steak is just after all of the red is gone. That doesn't mean it's dry. Well done isn't burnt; burnt is burnt.

What you do is: you fry the steak. I can't do it and I usually guess wrong but I've had it perfect before. A beautiful fillet steak with no fat, brown all the way through and loverly and juicy. Preferred way of eating: in hand like a chocolate bar.

"Melt in the mouth" is a phrase that never ever should have ever been used to describe meat. Ever. Because meat shouldn't melt.

Edit: I'm probably talking about medium, aren't I? Well I described the best type of steak possible anyway.

 

[Joshimodo]

Incinerated. Lovely and crisp.

 

[roger moores eyebrow]

Medium rare with peppercorn sauce!

 

[sunburst]

I like my steak perfectly rare, but it's hard to order because steakhouses seem to have wildly different ideas as to what constitutes a rare steak. Some places lean toward blue while others lean toward medium. I want my steak rare as possible while still being warm all the way through. This isn't a problem in nice restaurants since you can discuss the specifics and know it'll be perfect but more casual places are a crap-shoot. It's definitely better to er on the side of rare though. Overcooked steaks make me cry searing tears of blood. Better blue than ruined.

Of course, it only matters with nice meat. If you got crappy steak, cover that bad boy in jerk seasoning and cook it to death (i.e. to medium rare).

 

[TheRundownRabbit]

Medium rare, cause you cant be that juicy goodness

 

[AndrewC]

Medium Rare preferably.
