What is the best way to cook a steak and why is it medium-rare?

>> No.5322901

that looks medium to me. i would rather eat those tomatoes than the steak. steak is pretty dull to me

>> No.5322915

>>5322901
Not even OP but that steak is clearly medium rare. Is your level of trolling between rare and medium? Is that the new /ck/ meme?

>steak is pretty dull to me
you don't put enough salt on it and/or you have shit beef

>> No.5323783

medium steak
it might have been medium rare before resting but now its over cooked
the main problem i have when i cook steak is the middle being cold so i'm slightly biased

>> No.5323791

Whenever I'm at a steakhouse, I always just say 130F. (really, I say 127F, but not above 130F, but it usually comes out at 130F) That's the perfect doneness, IMO, right inbetween rare and medium-rare. At home, it's no problem. You can ask for it to be a certain temp, if the grill chef knows what he's doing, you'll get it just the way you asked for it.

that steak looks to be a little over done to me. i say that its past the medium rare and is starting to go into the well done. plus that steak looks really plain and some cloves, salt, pepper or even brine it before cooking

As someone who cooks steaks for a living, this is clearly medium. Med rare never has grey anywhere in the middle or around the edges, it's simply pink instead of red which would be rare.

>> No.5325318

If you can get some good quality grass fed beef, you need to cook it slower than that corn fed feedlot crap.

The reason for corn fed beef has nothing to do with quality -- it is only about fattening the cattle up faster so that they can go to market quicker and cheaper. In other words, corn fed beef is cheap beef, not quality beef.

>> No.5325375

the "medium rare steak is best steak" line is just an example of really successful viral marketing

the restaurant industry as a collective spreads this information on the internet, disseminating it into the mass populace

therefore, they don't have to cook the steaks as long and they get more customers in and out, making them their precious shekels

if i wasn't a vegan, i would only eat my meat well done. i dont want those jew shills from monsanto (ie the restaurant industry) to get any of my hard-earned money

enjoy your e coli and salmonella, medium-rare meatfags (not that any other meat eaters are much better)

I know this a troll, but fuck did he hook me.

Different cuts of meat have different amounts of connective tissue, fat, and collagen. Temperature is not just a matter of preference; but what cut of meat and how thickly it is cut and in what direction.

Medium-rare or medium is good middle-ground for most steaks, well-done for everything is a good indication of a squeamish faggot.

If that was actually true, which it isn't, then they would push for rare as can be since it requires minimum input from the restaurant.

I'm a rare steak guy btw.

There are so many interesting and tasty ways to cook beef. A slab of meat on a grill for a bit is just uninspired.

rare is best with highly marbled loin cut
medium rare for less than ideal marbling and short loin cuts
excepting, of course, raw, which is ideal when some good vinegar and hard cheese is available

well done. and I mean professional level well done. not that charred piece of leather your mom passes off as well done. making an enjoyable well done is harder than making a blue rare that won't make someone sick. ask any cook of any level. anyone who blindly says well done is the worst way to prepare a steak is either elitist or unskilled in making them.
