How do you like your steak cooked?

[Craig Tomkinson]

Hi All, My favorite is My own Home killed 3 year old grass fed bullock once dead hung in the cold room for a two weeks. Best cut for me is a T bone cut not to thick then grilled with no char marks till just cooked past medium so there is no blood but still rearly juicy, if its good meat should be able to eat it with just a fork, Craig

Interesting to see so many people reckon steak should be bleeding on the plate, but not many have voted that way

No, meat's got to be cooked!

Now that sounds about right.  But for us mere mortals, getting a really nice piece of meat from anywhere is hard, so I tend to not buy much at all. Don't you hate it when that nice piece of steak from the butchers gets off the hot plate and there is gristle through it, or it just doesn't melt in the mouth like it should.
To eat a steak with a fork......aahh, now that is a memory ??  The last time eating with a fork was some baby back ribs in New York !!

can't say I'd voted when I replied in the thread, many others likely did same

Hi gronk, that does sound tasty, It just a memory for me now to, We sold our house block and our share of the family farm at Cootharaba too my older brother, we live in Cooroy now, Misses was sick of living there I was sick of my brother, So we ate the last of our steers last year, gee I miss great meat, If we buy meat now We just buy MSA rib filet from my butcher in Gympie, and do buggers or salad with it, its very nice but not as good as home killed meat, Craig

Rare for me, and the same with lamb.

Hi All, I find it very strange, meat is just protein like fish or chicken, Theres no way I would eat chicken or fish half cooked, so blows my mind people eat half raw meat, But each to there own, Craig

No way would I eat undercooked chicken, way to easy to get crook like that, but steak rare, and fish raw are fine.

surprising how often it is served up not properly cooked...
you should see some of the results from the lab we get in testing sometimes... ****in terrifying..

I'm bl@@dy paranoid about undercooked chicken after seeing how crook a mate got many years ago.

[Pete79]

Exactly like this.....





And getting washed down with a ice cold Little Creatures that was brewed in Fremantle.

that looks like it will be nice once you cook it.

I normally eat it medium rare and voted as such, but the best steak I ever tried was "Cave man steak".
Salt, pepper and olive oil on both sides of a good-quality, inch thick steak and then cooked DIRECTLY ON THE CHARCOAL! 30 seconds a side, flick off any significant charcoal chunks with the tongs and then DIG IN!!
I was skeptical at first but, I kid you not, it was delicious and even helped bring my taste back from medium to medium rare for normal bbq steak.
The only thing is, it's the kind of technique you can't do for a large group of people all at once because half of them probably won't eat it!

cheers,
Jono.
