Quote HistoryQuoted: But not how to be a gracious guest, apparently. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: OP knows how to be a decent host to his guests. But not how to be a gracious guest, apparently. I ate the steak with a smile and I thanked the host. The original question was does it piss you off when dinner is ruined. That is a long way from saying I was a ass to the host. That was typical GD over generalization. |

I went to a gathering like that once. Everyone brought their own steak for this “chef” that my wife’s friend married. I knew I was fucked when he made two drug deals while the grill was getting hot. Said he was about to smoke steaks and they’d be the best steaks we’ve ever had. He “smoked” them for about 2 hours while he told us all how good of a cook he was. They weren’t worth 2 shits. I’ve had better steaks at golden coral….

Quote HistoryQuoted: Not since I've started to sous vide mine, they're only on the grill a total of 5 minutes, Hard to fuck them up in that time period.  Most nervous was cooking a bunch of dry aged steaks at a bachelor party for a bunch of drunk hungry guys, I thankfully nailed those. After a sous vide, I skip the grill and go straight to a blowtorch. Max heat. |

If somebody wanted me to give them a undercooked steak I would; I'd also expect them to be as considerate and put that back on the grill for me, cause I ain't eating it like that. |

Some people can’t eat raw meat. The best thing to do as a host is to either ask, or cook it medium well done. I’d rather ask people how they like it. Noting there will always be someone who says medium well or well done. There is a whole generation of folks that are used to eating steaks well done and don’t like anything else.

My BIL insists on hosting got every summer holiday , he has a shitty grill ( charbroil) and he cooks everything to blackened hockey puck steaks, brats, burgers, hot dogs , all cooked black hard
He has no idea that 160 degree is the magic temp By vote they asked me to take over the grill. He still cook leftovers to black after I leave |

Did you pay for the steaks? Did you do the prep work? Are you going to do the cleanup?
If no, shut up and enjoy your Saturday night. If you want to control things, then you can host a party or cook steaks for yourself. |

The chef brought out n entire prime rib roast and I got erect at the thought of a ful day fishing then eating a killer slice of a roast .. Welllll he proceeds to slice it super thin and put it on the flat top with 0 and I mean not a single granule of salt or pepper... Griddled until you came in to eat.... Shoe leather... Mac salad with a cheese sauce... Wtf?!?!!?? Well turns out he lied on his resume and I'm guessing was never a chef on a long range boat. |

Quoted: Meat thermometers are like $10, and anyone cooking steak (or anything on a grill) should have one anyway, makes it really easy. I guess I should have been more specific. How I want it cooked is not just a temperature, it is until there is only a little pink left; it doesn't have to be well done, but almost. I seldom go (avoid is accurate) to cookouts, potlucks; I have food at my house and as seen in this thread people can take it personal over food because you don't want your food their way. |
