This is not a dinner pic but I need to get the hive's opinion on how done this steak is. I cooked this on the grill, searing both sides at high temp and then cutting the temp down to get the center just right:

I prefer medium rare vs rare for 2 reasons.
1 - I dont like putting cold steak in my mouth 2 - Rare steaks dont melt the marbling, so while being more tender, they dont have as much flavor as medium rare since the fat has melted into the meat. Anything over medium rare renders the fat and changes the flavor too much, in a negative way. |

I was a cook at a steakhouse in my teens. That is a Medium steak.
Rare---cool red center Med Rare-warm red center Med-hot pink center Med-well-almost no pink..no outside char Well-no pink--slight outside char It was unfortunate as a cook, to cook the steak properly and have the customer complain because they didn't know what they ordered. GD on Arfcom should have a good grasp on this subject though!!! |
