5. I need to party with you, homegirl
I hate when I cook steak for other people and they want it past medium. Gheez, get a hamburger then.

6. no kidding
what is the point of having a nice piece of meat if you're just going to incinerate it?

17. I'm reminded of an old Don Martin strip in MAD
In an Eskimo restaurant, a customer orders a large fish, which the waiter brings and asks the customer how he wants it.

"Medium," he says — whereupon the waiter smacks the fish with a stick five or six times.

"I said 'medium'," the customer says.

So the waiter smacks it once more.

7. there's a steak ordering guide on the menu at my favorite restaurant
it tells you what your steak will look like if you order it rare, medium rare, etc.... under "well done" it says "order chicken" :rofl:

9. It actually takes a lot of skill to do that
Most restaurants just burn it because it takes to long (they think) to cook it all the way through and still be juicy. It can be done, but it takes lots of patience.

10. high-five!
It's good to know that some other people understand the difference between food and the materials that are used to prepare food. I eat bread, but I don't just go out in a field and eat loads of wheat. I also don't eat raw eggs or drink olive oil.

13. Then you have no idea
what a really good steak tastes like. I used to hate it when I was younger because my mom always cooked it well done. I used to drown in in steak sauce if we had to eat it. Not until I was older and had a wonderful medium rare steak did I have any idea it could taste so wonderful all on it's own. :9

16. If my veterinarian can resuscitate it, I'm not eating it,
And, the only thing pink or red on a steak should be the ketchup.

20. Way to ruin a steak.
No more than medium provides the best taste.

21. If you cook it more than halfway you're overdoing it.

24. Mine still has to be moo-ing when they bring it out!
I've had it done too well, and nothing fucks up beef like when it's burned to a crisp.

No taste, no flavor...plus, it's rubbery

28. Mooing.
That's how you order it cooked that way. Or uncooked, I should say.

30. As long as it doesn't flinch when I stick my fork in I'm good with it.
Make sure it is dead and run it past the fire long enough to get it warm on the way out and we'll be fine.

I think it ruins a good steak to cook it too much. I love rare roast beef too.


:shrug:
