    Very well done but not burned...done long and slow so it falls off the bone and if wrapped it retains it flavour and moisture.

    I want to chase my steak around the plate! Other foods need to be cooked till done not anywhere near burnt.

    Oh dear - the whole chicken and pork needs to be well done thing is a bit old these days. That recommendation came from when chicken and pork carried disease and the only way to guarantee not getting sick was to cook the meat until it was chewy. These days, with increased attention on food quality, one is highly unlikely to get worms from undercooked pork or unwell from undercooked chicken. Of course neither of these meats should be served bloody but they really don't need to be "well done".

    Personally i like my beef rare, my burgers/lamb/duck/tuna to be medium/ rare and my pork and chicken just, just done so they are still tender.

    Mmmmmmmmmm....hungry now.

    Medium well, just my preference. Doesn't look to appetizing to me when there's blood dripping all over the plate.

    A friend of mine used to ask the server to "just walk the cow past the fire". I'll have my steak medium-rare to medium, with lots of minced garlic on top, please and thank you! ^_^

    Any other meats HAVE to be well done...
