My wife wants to be with me? It must be football fever.

.... because welldone is overdone or because it's a human cooking the steak?
Also, Tony Bourdain confessed in one of his books (Kitchen Confidential) that his restaurant saved the worst steaks for people who ordered them well done.
-
makes sense.... i mean you can't tell the difference once you get to well done
-
Seriously, When I was in Spain ... Salt and Pepper and a good cut of Steak on the BBQ and just medium rare ... tasted amazing.
I don't bother ordering a steak in the UK these days ... always rubbish ... have to order it blue to get it rare.
-
Worked at a buffet that did steaks.
The well done ones were the ones that had been sitting in the warmer the longest.
-

When I cook them, nothing but salt. I take kosher salt and cover the whole thing. A lot will come off, but it will be an amazing meal.
-
garlic salt
-
I put on sea salt before cooking, and pepper and chili powder afterward.

Or Eve Online, where if you play your cards just right -- you can be someone's final boss -- or their greatest role model, for that matter. ;)
-
A slab of steak cannot be well done. It's no longer a steak by definition.
But then you can wear it on your feet, so it still won't be entirely wasted.

I used to work at a restaurant where the till system's options for steaks were:
- blue
- rare
- medium rare
- medium
- medium - well
- well
- cremated
-

Leather is usually the outside of the cow, steak is the inside...
- blue
That's how I usually prefer my steaks. "Quick- eat it before it crawls off the plate!!!"

I've always gone for medium in the past; might have to try going rarer in future. Not sure if I'll go all the way to blue though
-
Real men eat steak tartare.
-
When I cook it myself it doesn't even get warm in the middle. Delicious
-
That stuff is cured.
-
why cold steak?
Why cook at all then?
-
Why cook at all then?
because you can't cook a steak Pittsburgh rare without applying heat.
-
A good sear is important no matter how much the inside is cooked.
-
Pitts make a habit out of combined over-well-done and rare in the same steak?

I can sort of see the appeal. It's like a mint humbug: crunchy on the outside, chewy on the inside*adds 'Pittsburgh rare steak' to list of things to try before I'm

I am reminded of a joke I heard once, long ago:
A bunch of football players1 went into a steakhouse. The first orders his steak blood rare. Not to be outdone, the second orders his raw. The third says, "[spoiler]Just walk the cow past the table, and I'll tear off what I want.[/spoiler]".
1 That would have been referring to handegg, but it's really irrelevant to the joke. Any guys who are perceived as big and ultra-masculine would do as well.

-
football players ... perceived as big and ultra-masculine
Soccer players are generally seen as pansies with more hair products than brain cells, and handegg players wear massive suits of armour. If you want sports players who are actually perceived as big and masculine, two words: rugby union.

I thought it was American Football? ;)
-
"I like my steak so rare a good vet could save it"
-
The normal way I see it expressed (including by me) is "still mooing".
-
-
-
If you heat it to just above body temp and add enough salt, you can pretend it was running away from you just a minute before.
-
Which one is the American Soccer?
-
soccer = REAL football
-
soccer = REAL football
No, if you have to modify the word football, it's not real football, and we all know soccer is association football, a.k.a., "some kind of football other than the real one".
-
If I remember rightly, the first game to be called 'football' bears more resemblance to rugby football than association football. So the real football is in fact rugby.
*waits to be proven wrong*
-
So the real football is in fact rugby.
If the real football were rugby, don't you think rugby'd be called football? QED.
-
If the real football were handegg, don't you think people would say "handegg" non-sarcastically? QED.

I thought [rugby] was American Football?
It is.
But their mummies aren't afraid that their babies might get hurt, so they don't make them wear all that padding and armour...

To kill the bacteria on the surface.
Which does prompt the question of why you would eat food that is so contaminated that the bacteria level is hazardous? Kitchens have to practice proper biosafety protocols. Food production (e.g., abattoirs) needs to ensure that they're not causing contamination.

And their fitter, so they don't need to keep stopping for a rest.

That's what I was getting at. T'was the joke.

Not so more recently, I think about 1/3 at best raid finder groups were successfully able to clear the final wings of the last couple of raids before wiping 1/2/3 times and disbanding. The laser beam eye boss was a common disband point, and loads disbanded on garrosh.

When butchering an animal, there is no way to be 100% certain that there was no surface contamination. The guidelines/regulations that are given to abattoirs/butchers are there to minimize the chance of cross contamination between animals. Most of the contamination that does happen is transferring harmful bacteria from the gut of the animal to the various cuts of meat. The only ways to avoid that contamination are:
- Don't eat meat.
- Cook your meat.
- Wash your meat in something like bleach.
I like meat, but I don't want to be washing it in bleach, so I'll stick with #2.
-
Don't eat meat.
Cook your meat.
Wash your meat in something like bleach.- sterilize your steaks with gamma radiation

Ignoring the ridiculous shape of UK eggs, rugby guys don't hit each other nearly as hard at football players do or they'd need the armor, too.
