phillybear Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 Folks who like their steak well done would be better off eating beef jerky - it's cheaper and you can pick it up at any convenient store. Instead of cooking it medium rare, why don't you drive out to a farm, and bite a grazing cow in the ass. Just have to pay for gas, and watch out for a farmer with a tranquilizer gun and a fetish for men he captures trespassing. Quote

Better yet, you could just bite into your own upper arm and lap the blood as it streams down to your elbow and onto the floor. Never be without a good steak. Anywhere, anytime. Quote

Medium rare is just perfect (imo) - it cooks the outside, it softens up the tissue and seals in the juices. Quote
Timinator Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 Now, I like a sushi-grade tuna steak rare. Beef steak should be thoroughly cooked. But I'm not reall picky--no matter what, it's still steak. By the way, doesn't "well done" really say it all? And, yes, there is a difference between medium well/well done at a Sizzlers vs medium/well done at at a gourmet steak place like Murray's in Minneapolis. Quote
Cruzer Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 By the way, doesn't "well done" really say it all? At this point, the steak taste no different than a hamburger patty. Quote

Medium rare is just perfect (imo) - it cooks the outside, it softens up the tissue and seals in the juices. You could slice the ass off a grazing cow for rare. You could let that meat sit out in the hot sun for a couple of hours for medium rare. And it will be full of thriving diseases and intact growth hormones just like the real deal. You could wash it down with some bottled bacteria water, and you become a walking, talking petri dish. Congrats. Quote

Guest Mr.T Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 I can't stand people who insult the way I like my steak simply because it doesn't fit their ideal. I find medium to be disgusting but I realize to them it tastes delicious. Why can they not recognize that to me well done is full of flavor? There are different ways to cook a steak to well done-you can toss it on the grill for a few minutes and nuke it or you can take an agonizing amount of time slowly roasting it. The slow cook is well worth it-amazing flavor in every bite. Thank goodness none of this has been going on. Quote
Saturday Night Beaver Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 Medium- is the only way to eat a steak IMO. Quote

Congrats. 1. Medium rare temp = 145 degrees. 2. Cook food to the appropriate temperature (145°F for roasts, steaks, and chops of beef, veal, and lamb; 160°F for pork, ground veal, and ground beef; 165°F for ground poultry; and 180°F for whole poultry). Use a thermometer to be sure! Foods are properly cooked only when they are heated long enough and at a high enough temperature to kill the harmful bacteria that cause illness. 3. HTH! Quote
pingpong Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 When it's brown, it's cooking. When it's black, it's done. Quote

Pfft. You call that cooking? I once was sick and had a fever that reached 145. And you don't see me being served with a baked potato and a side salad. Quote

phillybear Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 waiting to hear what the difference is ? About 40 bucks a plate. Quote
The Moz Posted March 14, 2006 Author Posted March 14, 2006 About 40 bucks a plate. winnah you just labled the one and really only difference ! Quote
Cruzer Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 145 degrees. Pfft. You call that cooking? Jep. Now, if you just don't like the taste - that's one thing. But you can clearly see the bacteria issue doesn't exists - 145 degrees is enough to kill them off. Quote

But you can clearly see the bacteria issue doesn't exists - 145 degrees is enough to kill them off. Lies. All lies. Besides, my Foreman Grill doesn't come with a temperature gauge. But I can guarantee you that my steak gets up to 3,000 degrees before it's ready. A steak ain't edible until it's been given last rites and been properly cremated, in other words, COOKED.. Quote

If a steak costs more than 5 bucks at the supermarket, no matter how many lbs. it is, I'm not buying it. They think they can rip me off. Well they better think again. And by "they", I mean the Amish weasel farmers. Think they can take over the world..where was I? Oh, yeah. I ain't paying no stinking dollar for a turnip. :shakesfist: Quote
