  1. 1. A delicious steak should be ...

    • Rare (or rarer)
    • Medium-rare
    • Medium
    • Well-done
    • Cooked some way that eludes these choices
    • Left alive as part of the noble creature, the cow

My vote is for Medium Well, that stage in between medium and well. I would probably go for just medium, but quite often when I go for Medium, it is a lot closer to Medium Rare than medium. And going for well often just gets you a dry burnt steak. BTW, where is medium well on the list of choices.

Cooked medium-well with A1 Thick & Hearty steak sauce,

chunky mashed potatoes on the side (with gravy)

a small portion of steamed broccoli and cheese,

and a tall, cold glass of Pepsi!

I think I just came.

?? You just ruined a good piece of meat with sauce, gravy and cheese.

You need to come to Australia and experience what it's like to eat good food.

Some people just don't understand what a good meal is and consider a good steak a full meal on its own (which, granted, can be enough to fill you up, its not a meal on its own no matter how good it tastes).

My inclination has gotten rarer as I have gotten older. When I started eating steak, I liked it well done, but I've gradually preferred it rarer, and personally prefer it medium to medium-rare now.

Don't have steak very often, so I'd take them all :)

but I prefer Well-Done!

A delicious steak should be DRY AGED

It always floors me that so few people know that aged meat is how you want it. What floors me even more is I live in Alberta, world renown for our beef, and yet there's only one butcher I've ever found in this province that ages beef. Most of them don't even know anything about it.

Medium-rare. But some places don't understand that so I have to ask for rare and it usually turns out medium-rare.

Asked for rare in one place and the waitress stood there looking puzzled and said "....rare?" I said "Yes, rare please". It came medium/well-done :huh:

Medium for me. And as Kramer once said "You don't sell the steak, Jerry. You sell the sizzle!"
