    A nice ribeye as rare as they'll cook it.

    And now I really need to find steak tartar... that sounds delicious.

    Please don't tell me there are still people who think that there is actually blood in a commercially sold piece of beef. People, there is NO BLOOD in your steak. The pink is myoglobin, not hemoglobin. You can eat your meat however you want obviously, but please don't say it's because of blood.

    Well well done.

    Any sign of pinkness, it's getting sent back.

    super duper rare. I've only sent a steak (for being undercooked) once and that was because only one side was seared (I wanted to keep it, but my dining mates were appalled)
    I hate anything past medium.
    Well-done and steak sauce are for people who secretly hate the taste of steak

    It may not be blood, but it looks like it is......good enough for me. :laugh:

    Also try kibbeh or frakke. Here's a good kibbeh recipe: http://www.dedemed.com/mediterranean/kibbeh-nayi-recipe-raw-lebanese-beef-tartar just be sure you don't buy hamburger, get your meat from a meat market and tell the butcher you'll be eating it raw.

    [make sure you have lots of ketchup for them too. well-done they'll want ketchup...]
    Our staff Christmas party is tomorrow evening and we are having it catered. They are bringing in STEAKS for everyone. I was the one appointed to get everyone's order of how they like their steak cooked. You want to know what most people said???? WELL DONE! OMG! Why ruin a steak by cooking it to death? I like mine RARE baby! Sear that sucker on both sides and let it rip! LOL

    HOw do you like your meat?

    I'm a medium rare. I like my tuna seared. I had a great chef tell me, that when you order steak "well done", they dig in the freezer for the worst piece they can find. He said "you can't tell the difference anyway, after you cook the crap out of it".

    I refuse to cook a steak that way; if somebody doesn't want a steak cooked right, I always have tuna to grill for those pansies.

    Preferably swimming in a pool of blood, wrapped in bacon of course!

    It depends on where I am getting it done, if it's at a good steakhouse like say Ruth Chris I will get it medium rare if it's at say Applebees I will get it medium or medium well, I made the mistake of asking for it medium rare at Applebees once, once.

    I ordered a ribeye at applebees cooked rare plus once... DISGUSTING. I complained to the waiter who said.. "huh, we've had a lot of complaints about the ribeye tonight" You think? Perhaps because you're serving rotting meat?

    Ruth's Chris on the other hand.. OMG, it's like eating velvet ambrosia.

    Good Job with your first post. Now, go check my diary and let me know if any of the red meat I have eaten in the last week has been commercially sold, or even beef for that matter.
