Posted August 22, 200717 yr So since its summer/bbq time(kinda late) we all love steak.. so what is your preferred doneness?? mine is med rare.. RARE = bloody, still cold in center MED RARE = warm center. still raw/bloody,yum MEDIUM = Pink center, juicy.. still pretty good MEDIUM WELL = no pink, very little juice, no risk for any sickness WELL = Wasting money to eat shoe leather. tastes like shit, and pisses you off afterwards for wasting money to eat a worthless piece of meat
August 22, 200717 yr You have to have it WELL DONE if you want to kill all the parasites... you want tapeworms and crap in your steak? Cause that's what you're gonna get if you don't cook it.

August 22, 200717 yr A well done steak or burger can come out very delicious if properly marinated and cooked. I myself prefer medium well.
August 22, 200717 yr * Raw - Uncooked. Used in dishes like steak tartare. Steak is generally not eaten or ordered at this stage. However, it is gaining popularity with raw foodists. * Blue rare or very rare - Cooked very quickly; the outside is seared, but the inside is usually cool and not warm and definitely not cooked. The steak will be red on the inside. * Rare - The outside is gray-brown, and the middle of the steak is red and slightly warm. * Rare plus - The outside is gray-brown, and the middle of the steak is mostly red and warm, with some pink. Often ordered by those that prefer medium rare and don't mind rare but worry about overcooking towards medium. * Medium rare - The steak will have a fully red, warm center. Unless specified otherwise, upscale steakhouses will generally cook to at least this level. * Medium - The middle of the steak is hot and red with pink surrounding the center. The outside is gray-brown. * Medium well - The meat is light pink with gray-brown surrounding the center. * Well done - The meat is gray-brown throughout and slightly blackened or charred. Very often, parents will order meat well-done for their children, as they--as well as the elderly--are more susceptible to food-borne illness. That is more like it.
