Lots of new members, time for a beef steak poll. Vote and discuss.

FYI: The Banawa would consider eating anything less than medium well done as being "wild animal-like". (They even cook all of the meat they give to their dogs.) The picture would mark a person as a barbarian, on the way to turning into a new species of animal.

Anybody who eats steak that is basically still moving is a barbarian in my book also

That picture looks like it was done perfectly.

That photo of that steak, looks like it is still mooing.

I'd prefer something from Ragpicker's grill. This looks pretty good:

What ? Christians indulge in steak ? How is this not living extravagantly ?

Completely depends on the type of steak and dish it is served in.

For example, if I'm eating prime steak at a steakhouse (which I almost never do) then medium rare.

If I'm eating steak fajitas as a Mexican restaurant (which is usually flank steak) or steak in a stir fry like Mongolian Beef then a little more well done is good.

I rarely eat beef though as my wife doesn't approve. We are mostly a chicken and fish household when we do eat meat.

We don't eat steak, but not for the reasons you listed. Hubby is a hunter, so if there is any steak at this house, it is venison steak. I have a Salisbury steak recipe made out of venison. Baked in mushroom gravy, it is a family favorite.

Before butchering, yes; hopefully not by the time it's medium rare. Other animals have been quicker to adapt to emissions reduction.
