yeah, carpaccio! thank you. "tartare" didn't sound right to me, but i didnt suspect there were too many raw steak dishes out there.
In Texas, the best steak is cooked on your grill in the back yard.
I don't buy cheap pieces of meat, like T-bone. It's Rib-eye or nothing at all. I cook my meat medium well (medium levels of heat for around 30 minutes) and I select a piece of meat that is well marbled.
I marinate my meat in Worchester sauce, so the level of juicyness is maintained. Once I flip my steaks, I pour the remaining juices onto the steak.
Most restaurants can't provide a decent piece of meat, well done, because they try to cook the meat at a very fast pace. That's why most well done steaks, are the equivalent of eating a shoe.
You should start eating at good restaurants then
I like medium to medium well. Honestly I know it butchers the taste and whatever but I'm a big puss about rare meat because I got sick off of a hamburger that was too rare when I was younger. Food aversion psychology and all.
One hamburger is made from like 500 cows. Probably more than that. Was it Super Size Me that said one McDonald's hamburger has 5000 cows in it?Quote:

Fuck. Now I really want steak.

I'm entirely aware of this, and you seem to not be aware of how food aversion works in the brain. I'd rather get it slightly more well and be fine with it.Quote:
