    Anything from medium rare to medium well is fine, but I'm tempted to only eat well done just to piss off meat elitists because god damn. Even a well done steak tastes good assuming you know how to season it, an art that is sadly lost on many.

    It depends on who I eat with! If it is a close friend, then it can be anything! I mean raw, overcooked or I will eat the cow alive!!!

    If it is a date or someone not that close, I will try to be more elegant and lady like....oops, now everyone knows my true colours!

    This may be true but you're just adding flavour to something that is essentially without flavour. Anything can taste good if you add a bunch of seasoning to it, no matter how delicately said seasoning is created.

    Maybe you've just eaten low quality meat with little taste

    If you've well-done'd a good quality steak I will kill you.

    This is pretty much the same thing as the A1 thing I brought up.

    Good quality meat cooked properly doesn't need to be seasoned to taste good.

    Indeed, but it can taste so much better. You just don't know how to season it properly.

    Meh. If you're seasoning it, whether you're doing it properly or not, you're covering up the natural taste of the meat which is absolutely delicious on its own if you aren't overcooking it. I'd only bother with seasoning if it's not a prime cut of meat or you manage to cock up the cooking process.

    And I take my steak Blue Rare. Just enough cooking to kill the surface bacteria while leaving the meat feeling like meat when you eat it. Absolutely delicious and the best way to have. I also have to order blue rare in a restaurant since most will overcook it because they're afraid of getting sued. Not really sure why though considering I've never gotten sick from eating blue rare steak, nor do I know anyone who has (and between myself and my mom alone we've eaten a lot of really rare steaks).

    I've only gotten a little queasy once from eating something that was rare. It was a rack of lamb.

    In fact, I've gotten food several many times, and it usually seems to come from vegetables and some meats that were cooked thoroughly.

    I used to order my steaks well done. I never used to like steaks.

    Now I order my steaks medium, and I smurfing love steaks. I've never had a medium-rare steak though, if I remember correctly, so I think next time I go to a steakhouse I'll get one, and compare it to medium.

    I always get a sirloin, btw. What kind of steak does everyone else get?

    Hmm...after reading more of these I'm tempted to start ordering rare instead of medium rare at restaurants. I've noticed that sometimes when I order medium rare, it's more medium than I'd like (doesn't happen as often as nicer steakhouses though). I suppose I've just been concerned that ordering rare would be risky and I might get sick...that's never been a problem for you "rare" people?

    My favourite cut is Scotch Fillet, especially if you can get it from a Wagyū cow. *drool*
