The veggie burger poll got me curious. in addition, I never understood someone ordering a filet or tenderloin well when they are such good cuts because they are tender and tastiest rare. A dry aged strip well I can understand because of the marble, but a filet?

Posted: **February 7, 2006, 5:08 pm**

I have to agree... what's the point of ordering a nice cut of beef well done?? Just bring in a shoe lace, throw some steak sauce on it and gnaw on it for awhile.

Personally I love mine on the Medium rare - Rare side. I can understand up to medium (I know some people get freaked out out of the color of rarer meats) but anything above that for anything aside from hamburger or a roast makes no sense to me.

Posted: **February 7, 2006, 5:25 pm**

Medium rare is by far the best - but rare-rare is great too! (cooked 3 seconds on each side)

Posted: **February 7, 2006, 5:43 pm**

Medium Rare for me.

Posted: **February 7, 2006, 5:47 pm**

I declare this poll invalid. Where is the "Bloody as Hell" option? Ideally, the steak will actually moo when I cut into it.

A good chunk of tuna can be seared on both sides and I'm happy. For me beef needs to hit 140 in the middle and rest a few minutes.

I think cooking tuna is a crime. Sashimi FTW!

Where's the "Don't Eat Beef" option? Discrimination!

Posted: **February 7, 2006, 7:55 pm**

Burgers - Medium-Well to Well, since the surface meat is ground into the rest of the meat which is where bacteria usually are.

Steaks - Medium-Rare to Medium, depending on the restaurant.

Posted: **February 7, 2006, 8:04 pm**

I voted the last option. I've grown to love a good rare steak. But i'm not dumb enough to eat rare anything/anywhere.

Posted: **February 7, 2006, 8:06 pm**

Medium rare is the only way to go.

Posted: **February 7, 2006, 10:08 pm**

Med rare FTW!

Posted: **February 7, 2006, 10:10 pm**

Depends on the beef. I like my hamburgers (and anything else with ground beef) pretty cooked. Steaks not so much.

Steaks/prime rib - rare to medium rare
Ground beef - Well done

For some reason, I cannot stand the texture of burgers unless they are cooked until there is absolutely 0 pink.

Steaks on the other hand...just run it through a warm room.

She isn't being mean, she is just spreading the joy of beef.

HAVE SOME BEEF!

You are still A-OK, Aslanna, but would be like way cool with a mitt full up of burger(and perhaps a nice cool beer in the other hand).

Reminds me of one of my good friends. His whole family ate their steaks extremely rare, it kinda scared me.

Medium is how I eat mine.

When it comes to steaks and such...I sooo miss living in southwest Kansas. They have a cool event in my hometown that is based on the "Beef Empire" called *drumroll* Beef Empire Days! The worst thing about being in the so-called Beef Empire was the smell though. The town was surrounded by ranches, feed lots, and beef packing plants. I remember taking some friends of mine up there to meet my family and they asked that I wake them when we were near (was about a 12 hour drive). I warned them that they would be able to wake up on their own. Once we were within about 10 miles of town, they woke up complaining about the stench. I used the local phrase that they smelled "Money."

Boog, how can you miss kansas beef when you live in texas?

That's blasphemy. I'm hereby protesting you, and boycotting your products.

Posted: **February 8, 2006, 2:32 pm**

Texas beef is good as well. I just miss having the beef from the immediate area. There aren't as many working ranches around Austin anymore. It was nice going into a restaurant and having them be able to tell you where the steaks came from.

Posted: **February 8, 2006, 2:34 pm**

I'm with the pack here... rare side of med rare on steaks but more time on the burgers.

What used to baffle me is at a former employer, we did a fair bit of business with some UK companies, and would get Scottish and English personnel over here at times doing sales trips/equipment installations/etc. You take these guys out for a dinner and without fail they'd order a steak med-well or well done... and then talk afterward about how they loved Canadian beef

but over the course of a couple years we had 15-20 different people and all of them were the same way. I used to tease the ones I knew better about ordering Steak A La Nike but I was never able to convince any of them to try a steak any less cooked.

There are ranches like 30 minutes NW of town!

My grandfather's ranch is near Brownwood; we get our beef straight from his stock. From the field, to the butcher, to the house. Yum!

The trick is to stay out of supermarket butchers. Find a butcher, ask about the process. Where their beef comes from, how soon they get it, etc.

edit: I just wanted to add that i've used 'erroneous' in conversation 4 times today and it's only lunch time.

Posted: **February 8, 2006, 2:44 pm**

Yeah, I know there are some near here, but nowhere near the amount as were around where I was born, went to school,etc.. Hell, they even had postcards proclaiming that more head of cattle were slaughtered in a 60 mile radius than anywhere else in the world! We go to Longhorn Market most of the time since you can pretty much grab a whole cow if you want to. We usually get an assload of beef from there and have some huge bbq's on out my mom's land

There are too many of the "chain" steakhouses around here.

Posted: **February 8, 2006, 2:46 pm**

Soon, the cows will walk out, introduce themselves, discuss which of their parts will be the most tasty, then pop off to the kitchen and shoot themselves*

*I know this will never happen as beef needs to be aged properly

Posted: **February 8, 2006, 4:22 pm**

Ill have to go with Well Done, but thats because i got a disease that triggers on too much read meat, and ill rather have a well done beef than not being able to walk, sleep or anything even on 600 mg ibuprofen

.

But if i didnt, i would go with medium rare.

Posted: **February 8, 2006, 4:32 pm**

That little cow would be great sliced ~3/4" thick and cooked over some very hot charcol until he just started to get brown the sizzly on the edges.

I'll never forget driving into Amarillo from downwind in Aug, you could smell it at 20 miles.

Posted: **February 8, 2006, 11:05 pm**

im on the fence. for a straight up steak, its medium rare all the way. however, if it is prime rib or pittsburgh style, i prefer rare.

Posted: **February 9, 2006, 5:18 am**

Waiter: How would you like your steaks cooked?
Pepper: Oh, just knock its horns off, wipe its nasty ass, and chunk it right here on this plate.

Rare slab, med-rare ground

Least you're not in the closet.

Fat and docile, big and dumb
They look so stupid, they aren't much fun
Cows aren't fun

They eat to grow, grow to die
Die to be et at the hamburger fry
Cows well done

Nobody thunk it, nobody knew
No one imagined the great cow guru
Cows are one

He hid in the forest, read books with great zeal
He loved Che Guevera, a revolutionary veal
Cow Tse Tongue

He spoke about justice, but nobody stirred
He felt like an outcast, alone in the herd
Cow doldrums

He mooed we must fight, escape or we'll die
Cows gathered around, cause the steaks were so high
Bad cow pun

But then he was captured, stuffed into a crate
Loaded onto a truck, where he rode to his fate
Cows are bummed

He was a scrawny calf, who looked rather woozy
No one suspected he was packing an Uzi
Cows with guns

They came with a needle to stick in his thigh
He kicked for the groin, he pissed in their eye
Cow well hung

Knocked over a tractor and ran for the door
Six gallons of gas flowed out on the floor
Run cows run!

He picked up a bullhorn and jumped up on the hay
We are free roving bovines, we run free today

We will fight for bovine freedom
And hold our large heads high
We will run free with the Buffalo, or die
Cows with guns

They crashed the gate in a great stampede
Tipped over a milk truck, torched all the feed
Cows have fun

Sixty police cars were piled in a heap
Covered in cow pies, covered up deep
Much cow dung

Black smoke rising, darkening the day
Twelve burning McDonalds, have it your way

We will fight for bovine freedom
And hold our large heads high
We will run free with the Buffalo, or die
Cows with guns

The President said "enough is enough

These uppity cattle, its time to get tough"
Cow dung flung

The newspapers gloated, folks sighed with relief
Tomorrow at noon, they would all be ground beef
Cows on buns

The cows were surrounded, they waited and prayed
They mooed their last moos,
they chewed their last hay
Cows out gunned

The order was given to turn cows to whoppers
Enforced by the might of ten thousand coppers
But on the horizon surrounding the shoppers

Came the deafening roar of chickens in choppers

We will fight for bovine freedom
And hold our large heads high
We will run free with the Buffalo, or die
Cows with guns

Eat steak, eat steak eat a big ol' steer

Eat beef, eat beef it's a mighty good food
It's a grade A meal when I'm in the mood.

Look at all the cows in the slaughterhouse yeard
Gotta hit'em in the head, gotta hit'em real hard
First you gotta clean'em then the butcher cuts'em up
Throws it on a scale throws an eyeball in a cup

Saw a big Brangus Steer standing right over there
So I rustled up a fire cooked him medium rare
Bar-B-Q'ed his brisket, a roasted his rump
Fed my dog that ol' Brangus Steer's hump
