Question How do you like your steak??

I was pondering this question today whilst I was eating mine for dinner! I tend to gross out everyone around me when I eat steak because I like it blue rare, which is basically quickly seared on the outside and cold and raw in the middle. In fact I may just skip the searing next time and save myself a few minutes! So how do you ladies like your steak??

Mediumare for me! I used to order well-done...then it went to medium-well, then medium. I'm pretty happy with mediumare though, I doubt I'll ever go to rare steak.

It's damn tasty! LOL I just have always loved it basically raw, hence why no one likes to eat steak around me! LOL We have really cut back on our meat also Traci, 2, maybe 3 times a week now and it is mostly chicken!

Ick, Eve...not me! I like mine well, well, well done. As in, absolutely NO pink in the middle (if there is, I can't choke it down) and pretty much charred on the outside. Which reminds me, we're going for a steak dinner tomorrow night. Hopefully they'll cook mine the way I like it. LOL!

I like mine medium to medium rare. I prefer filet mignon over any other steak.

If it's prime rib, my dh will eat it very rare. I couldn't believe it the first time I saw him order it and eat it.

I'm a rare to medium rare person - I like it pinked in the center, but not too cool as it just is harder to chew. I don't do steaks well (the steaks I get are usually too thin, because of price), so if I really want to get a good one, I'll go to a restaurant and order it rare....

*lol* FOR SHAME, Ms. Reed!! There is a CHAIR between them! And she has been stricken so sorrowful that her beloved will not leave her comments on her FB wall that she has thrown herself to the floor in a sobbing rage!! I know that feeling all too well!



But yes, I see where your eyes go in the image if you are a dirty birdie like you...

I will pick a new one this weekend just for you.

I haven't eaten beef or pork in about 15 years, so I don't like any steak. If I tried at this point, I'm sure I'd get sick.

That's a gross thing, not a German thing. LOL! My FIL is from Germany, he'd never even consider eating raw ground beef, but he does love some blood & tongue sausage!

It's called Steak Tartare

Quote:
Steak tartare is now regarded as a gourmet dish. It is especially popular in Belgium, the Netherlands, France, Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic (Tatarák) and Switzerland. In Belgium, it is known as filet américain or American fillet. It is eaten as a main course, typically accompanied with toast or french fries. The preparation of the meat is either done by the waiter, table-side, or by the customers themselves. A fresh green salad may also be served in the summer months to add a further freshness to the dish.
La, it depends on where you get your beef,..as long as it's well handled and refrigerated it's fine...

Not big on tartare myself, mostly because they put mustard in it (someday I'll explain the relationship I have with mustard LOL!). I like mine between rare and medium rare.

Now, if we're talking TUNA steak...well, that's a different story! Give it to me raw!

I think Steak Tartare is ILLEGAL in a lot of states! LOL. On restaurant menus that is.

And LeeAndra - you like yours with a side of hot man?!! You're too funny.

I like it medium to medium well. With a side of mashed potatoes ;-)

I like rare to medium rare, but there are some cuts of meat where I say "Just walk that cow past the fire a couple of times!"

I used to like mine rare, but anymore I really much prefer medium rare (closer to rare than medium).
My very best friend loves her like you do, Eve. That's a tad too rare for me,lol.

Not into mooing meat here! Well done...nearly burnt!! Pink goes right back to the kitchen.

Part of it is my overdeveloped olfactory senses...I can smell the blood and it totally grosses me out. I can't be anywhere near beef at all when I'm pregnant.
