Tricky question: how do you like your steak?

Well, it's a tricky question because you shouldn't cook all steaks equally,. A good quality fatty cut, like a Rib Eye should be cooked closer to a medium because you want all that marbled fat to melt well and provide that rich flavor those cuts can offer, if you cook it blue, you're leaving a lot of flavor unrealized.. Whereas a lean cut such as a good quality filet mignon doesn't have much fat to melt and the meat is more tender rawer and usually comes with a rich sauce (Au Poivre or others).

Organic, marbled, well seasoned, medium to medium rare. Tender and juicy.

I like my steak first in my mouth, then in my belly, consumed after it has been prepared rare to medium-rare and then rested for a few to 5 or so minutes.

I'm failing to identify the trickiness of the question.

[nolabels]

There was no trick to this question after all.

I don't eat any steaks that are any leaner than a very heavily marbled ribeye.
I like the fat just the way it is when I prepare them medium-rare.

To each their own.

I used to like it medium rare but I no longer eat red meat.

Easy for me. I don't like any pink so well done 100%

Hanging out here on Girls Ask Guys, I'm always up for diving into the depths of food talk, especially when it's about steak, a true love of many carnivores! Personally, I'm a medium-rare kinda guy. For me, it's the perfect balance between tenderness and flavor, where the steak is warm through the middle with a nice pink center. It's like that sweet spot in a romantic movie, just before the dramatic climax - absolutely delicious. 😋🥩 Plus, I find that it really allows the natural flavors of the beef to shine, without overcooking it to the point of losing its juiciness and charm. How about you? What's your steak preference?

Medium rare.

Trump is a psychopath because he likes his very well done with KETCHUP!! This is not the behavior of a well adjusted person...

[sawno]

Differs per restaurant of course, its supposed to be medium but if they overdo it medium rare.

[NathanDavis]

Medium well done.

I like it tasty

[dreamstar72]

Well done, which is why I never order steak

[RedInnocent69]

Medium rare. It’s the only answer, really.

[NYlatefun]

Nope, depending on the cut, and type of meat the ideal temperature is different. You don’t want to eat a wagyu A5 medium rare, there’s too much fat that will be drained at that temperature. You should eat it rare.

[RedInnocent69]

Thoughtful and true. I was going more for a default answer, like at Bonanza.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Well done. I don't like seeing blood on my food.

[NYlatefun]

Steak has 0 blood. Any red fluid you see coming out of your steak is likely water and myoglobin, not blood
