How do you like your Steak cooked?

[Jairzinho]

Try it. You won't look back.

Buy some and cook it at home with some fried onions or mushrooms, thin cut chips and some rocket. And a bottle of red. Food of the gods

 

Ade, don't do any of these things.

 

Fucking rocket?

Whats actually the best steakhouse in Liverpool?

 

I always go to Meet but I'm sure there are others I should try out.

Reminds me of a friend who, finding himself in a discussion about the most effective aphrodisiacs with a bunch of pretentious tossers, suggested that he always found a naked woman did the trick for him.

To my shame I've never actually had a quality steak anyway. Think the closest I've had that could be considered "not shit" would be at a weatherspoons.

 

Still, don't think I could have one not well-done. Even if someone else was paying.

 

That's the worst thing i've ever heard.

[Champ]

 

Fucking rocket?

 

It wilts fabulously in all those meaty juices.

 

On the resting thing I don't like to rest it too long because I like it hot.

 

And never mustard or any of that kind of thing.....let the meat speak for itself

[Alan Sex]

I'm a big fan of what is sometimes referred to as "Chicago Style" or "Black and Blue" or sometimes "Pittsburgh Style".

 

The classic way of doing this is the middle is blue or rare and late in the cooking stage the very outside is seared or blackened.

 

Makes for a nice textural experience, combined with a little charred flavour.

[Paulie Dangerously]

I was always firmly in the rare camp until I met my bird who is half french and she introduced me to the wonder that is a blue steak. Good quality room temperature steak cooked blue is a wonder to eat

[lifetime fan]

Medium Rare with the margin of error being that it's rare rather than medium.

 

When preparing steaks myself I usually blacken them with herbs and spices (paprika, cayenne, rosemary, black pepper, and garlic salt to be exact). The result being initial heat (in terms of spicy food) followed by the flavor of the meat itself overtaking that.

 

Also found I prefer grass-fed beef to corn-fed having finally gotten around to trying it.

 

Does anyone here let their steaks rest for 5 minutes or so after cooking them? I've done it but find I prefer to eat it as soon as possible after it comes off the grill.

 

 

Always let it rest. It doesn't need to be for 5 minutes, half the cooking time will do and serve on a hot plate.

[VladimirIlyich]

Bout to say the same.

 

Since voting in this thread i have turned it down a notch' date=' and now eat my steak medium.[/quote']

 

Me too.

 

Find that most places cremate the meat so like you ive moved to medium.

Is there such a thing as medium well done and if not why not?

[Saintslfc13]

Didn't use a hot plate when I did it, will give that a go. Thanks.

 

How does one actually cook a blue steak? Just sear the outside and take it off the fire?

[TheBitch]

 

I won't neg you for your honesty. I'm not so sure about others though.

 

I wasn't letting that shit slide.

[Saintslfc13]

Me too.

There is. It's very slightly pink in the middle, as opposed to brown/tan.

Adebisi loves a good rocket.

[zigackly]

It's quite worrying that more than a third of voters in this poll habitually ruin perfectly good meat.

[TheHowieLama]

Yeah, you need a really hot fire or your burner on high and the pan smokin- bout a minute a side.

 

Carpaccio can be done with a slighlty frozen piece of meat in the same way.

[Antynwa]

Cooked to an extent that a good vet could bring it back to life.

[Code]

I have to be honest here and say I have no fuckin clue what you are talking about when you say blue steak?

 

What is that exactly?

[TheHowieLama]

Charred out, raw inside

[Code]

So basically a burnt one.

 

No thanks.

[L19red]

Where is the raw option? I fucking love steak tartare.

I'll be eating a load of it this year on my way around France

[PestiRed]

I have to be honest here and say I have no fuckin clue what you are talking about when you say blue steak?

 

What is that exactly?

 

Blue seems to be a British/American thing from back in the day when every steak was massively over-cooked and essentially means rare in every normal civilised part do the world.

 

Presume that this has been said before, but if you have voted for anything cooked more than medium rare the you shouldn't be allowed any beef better than braising steak

[TheHowieLama]

Technically the middle should not have a texture change from raw and will be "cold"

[Code]

But back to the place to go in Liverpool if you want to enjoy a good steak then.

 

Any better than Meet?

[zigackly]

I just had a couple of minute steaks for a snack, seasoned with salt and black pepper and barely kissed by the flame. Marvelous.
