When you go out to a pub/restaturant and have steak, how do you have it done?
Rare, Medium or Well Done?
I always have Medium, and usually with a pepper or diance sauce....mmmm...and some nice chunky pub chips :grin:
When they do medium-rare thats the best though.
....sorry if the topic is a bit random I was wondering and I'm hungry right now.

I like my steak bloody. between rare and medium rare. My dad cooks the best steaks, no resturant can compare. Theres a peppery taste to it but with some spices too. Not chewy but not tough as leather either. Thats what I hate about english meat. All the flavour gets cooked out and replaced with ketchup.

Well done all the way, though I won't turn down a medium.
And as for sauce, yeah pepper or bearnaise (dunno if that's the correct english term) but it's this:

I like mine well done with chips and fried egg.......or is that gammon? meh they both sound nice.
Saignant. Preferably with a crunchy outside, which is near impossible but not imposibble. Also i like a lot of onions with it and whatever sauce: cream, peppercream, provencale, jus, wine, mustard, dragon,... .

you cant possibly have a nice well done steak, it's like killing the thing twice.
'french medium' is the best as the french don't fuck steaks up, they cook them lightly however you ask for it.

I prefer it crispy is all.

Yes, thats the way. The french hate english cooking. I would know. French steaks for the win!

Not at all, woo for Vegetarianism.
But before I became veggie think it was medium. I was only young so I wasn't sure and medium sounded best.

there's no beating a medium steak, if it weren't for the whole heart attack thing i'd eat it all day long.

Why did you become a veggie?
On topic - I like my steaks medium, then I slap some salt. splash of vinegar and some ketchup on it. I am a ketchup-aholic, I can't get enough of the stuff.

This man doesn't live on chips alone, he has a rounded(ish) diet. And I became a veggie because I didn't eat many meat before I "changed", only really burgers. Plus the whole killing of animals, I heart animals.
If the animal isn't killed for you, it's gonna get killed for someone else. Wether you eat meat or not, the same amount of animals is going to die. It's pure statistical logic of the capitalistic postmodern society i tells ya.
Look, i used difficult words, i'm smart!

Oh my god, I'm cured, I want the meat!
Feeling sarcy and Tara-inspired.
At least im being proactive, if the "one person can't make a difference" lethargic attitude was used by the likes of Martin Luther the world would be a different place. Obviously im not as active as MLK but just the thinking that "it's going to happen anyway" is silly. Im sure nobody becomes vegetarian because they think its going to stop animals being killed, but rather they do not wish to be the cause of it.

Its not really the consumption idea of meat eating that makes me want to stay vegetarian, more the intensive-farming-murdering-cruel-inhuman way in which they are reared and killed for the sole benefit of some fat steak eating motherfucker who doesnt give a flying fuck about the life of anyone but himself. Period.

I love steak, I like it best when it's well-done, nice and burnt. With fat chips by the side of it, add abit of pepper and salt to the steak and dip it in tomato sauce is lovely. :)

So everyone who eats a steak is 'someone who doesn't give a flying fuck about anyone elses or animal lives'. Seems like a harsh and incorrect generalisation there. You don't see me calling every veggie a treehugging pussy who cries at the mere sight of blood, do you?
To me, people eat whatever they want. I myself love meat, and I also think, read think, that human bodies are designed for processing meat. It might be that when you don't eat meat, you have a shortage of certain substances. It also mightn't.

Dont eat meat and I shant call you one.
Bowser........cool
Dont eat meat and I shant call you one.
Then you're a shallow minded idiot who believes his opinions are the only right ones and everyone else is not only wrong, but also a bad bad person. It's because of people like you millions died in WWII, the WTC got blown up and religions escalated in terrorist breeding grounds.
sorry if that was a bit harsh.

Woah woah woah, didn't mean to start an argument, lets just let this be a thread about steak cooking.
(But one last thing, Veggies are 30%ish less likely to have cancer and heart attacks - cant remember the exact statistic.)
Back to the cooking of le steak!

I try not to eat meat that much, but when I have steak well done it is.

Steak is best cooked medium-well ie. not so burnt that it loses its taste, with just a bit of pink in the middle. If I'm in France, I just don't bother. You ask for it well done and it comes dripping in blood. I mean, what the fuck? Those crazy French...

I just ate a tasty medium to well done steak. It was organic and fucking gorgeous.
I like my steak medium usually but it's always different. I'm quite fussy and it's not often I have a steak that I really enjoy.
As for the whole vegetarian arguement. It's a personal choice and I wouldn't judge anyone for it. Having said that, humans are omnivores. Our entire bodies are geared to eating a combination of both meat and vegetables. We aren't meant to eat one or the other. That's the reason that someone who only eats meat is going to get ill from say a lack of vitamin and vegetarians can get ill from not eating any protien.
