Feel free to explain why it's ridiculous that I ask if people mind if I have my steak under cooked.

Because you aren't making them eat the steak, so why should you adjust what you would enjoy based on them not liking a rare or blue rare steak?

brett just thinks he is special because he likes beef red. That's all this is.

If you’re going to an Applebee’s to drink/watch games, that obviously different from what I was getting at.

Medium Rare.

Once had a buddy order a $75 steak "Well done" at a steakhouse in Milwaukee. We all looked at him like.. "Are you sure man?" The waitress even laughed. He enjoyed his tire.

Blue is not rare, brett has a chart. It is just blue I guess.

Ok so I have to ask, what is the preferred cut of steak?

In order for me is:

Ribeye
Strip
Tbone/Porterhouse
Sirloin

If I am lighting up the smoker tho I love to go with tri tip. One of the most underrated cuts of beef in my opinion if you know how to cook and slice it.

Ribeye
Flank
Porterhouse
Strip
Sirloin

Also, I don’t order steaks at restaurants anymore unless it’s a high end steak joint (which only happens on the rare occasion for business meetings)

There's a grass fed, organic butcher shop just opened last year around the corner from me called Pasture to Plate. The guy there set me up with my first hanger steak. One word: OMG!!

I went to this nice restaurant in Fargo last year and paid 50 bux for an Elk steak. Hands down, best steak I've ever eaten. It was incredible.

In terms of different cuts, I know a popular one is Ribeye, but I'd much rather have a NY Strip. Ribeye's are okay if I get to pick them out myself from the store, but if I go to a restaurant and pay 25-30 bux for a Ribeye and half of it ends up being fat, I'm going to be upset. Maybe next time I get a Ribeye from a restaurant, I'll just ask for it well done.

Probably one that wants to know if you want some pussy with your steak.

If u go to a good steakhouse they will bring out your meat still blue (even on the outside) and let u pick the steak you will be eating.

The only way I can in my imitation palatial kitchen, in a pan. I will try sous vide at some point, but I was so anxious to eat them that I just went the easy route.

Why have I never had this cut of steak before?
