how does everyone eat their steaks/beef?

[loner]

i always eat mine veyr rare,searing them on both sides quickly to brown it nicely,then let it sit for like 5 minutes.Yum! just curious how everyone else eats theirs.

 

[bpmartyr]

The rarer the better. Just wipe it's a$$ and slap it on my plate baby!

 

[Ubiquitous]

Medium, and preferrably a Ribeye.

 

[motive]

i guess it depends whos paying? haha

 

[Rivet]

Medium-Rare (because I don't trust anyone) New York cut and has to be THICK!

 

[MiKeY ReSp]

Rare as possible...just seared on the outside.

 

[moklepaul]

Medium rare, thick, rib eye With garlic mashed potatoes

 

[RedwolfWV]

Grilled to medium rare. Its 8am and now I'm hungry for a steak!

 

[Mass_69]

I'm a medium-well to well guy. I used to be paranoid of food-born illness. Then I just got used to well-done.

Rib-eye is definitely the most tasty cut. Don't make it a staple if you're cutting, though.

 

[glg]

just a blush of pink. a little salt and pepper no sauces of any kind. if it needs covering then it needed to be a better cut of beef.

 

[SMOKEPALADIN]

Medium Ribeye / Porterhouse

 

[TeamSavage]

Steaks - RARE!
Burgers - medium rare

On cuts of beef (steaks), e coli and other harmful bacteria can only be on the outside. You only need to make sure the surface is heated. The inside can be raw and still be safe. For this reason, I prefer my steaks almost still alive enough to walk off the plate. If my mouth is not covered in blood when I'm done then it was overcooked.

On burgers, unfortunately, since the beef has been ground, e coli can be anywhere, so it needs to be heated all the way through... Hence, medium-rare.

Straight from the pasture. Just give me fork and dig in. LOL
Usually rare or medium rare. More nutrients that way.

 

[UnicronSpawn]

Gonna have to stray from the majority crowd on this one.
I like my steaks well done, but not dry. It's gotta be juicy. I like my steaks the way I like my women........"DARK AND JUICY". I also like to have it w/ baked potato, steak sauce, and non-fat sour creme and veggies. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.... THATS what the F#@$ IM TALKIN BOUT!:head:

 

[ralph4u2c]

mid-rare filet. im not a fan of sirloins for the bloodline or ribeyes for all the outside fat. NY strip is tasty but only sometimes so i stick with my filet. i wont turn down a free steak, regardless of cut, but if im buying - filets.

LOL unicorn i know to each his own, everyone likes their steaks differently, but a good steak doesnt need any kind of steak sauce. well done just kills the taste i think too, but i know everyone is different. i work at Copelands, we buy the same steaks as Ruth Chris so i eat them all the time baby woo

 

[foggia]

Yeah gotta go with as bloody as possible, definitely medium rare or rare. I like mine to still be mooing, lol. Can't stand the medium-well or well done it taste too much like chewing on a shoe

 

[Supa Freek 420]

Crust on the outside, red on the inside. S&P and that's it. Sometimes a slab of garlic herb butter on top. Porterhouse is where it's at.

 

[hamper19]

I'll join the club..for me its medium rare

porterhouse is my favorite..ribeye a close second...

if i'm cutting or something i'll force my self to eat the top round kinda cuts...

I also like flank steak..quickly seared on each side, cut it right and its good as hell

[TripDog]

with a fork when im feeling classy....but sometimes forks piss me off,so thats when people at the resturant start to stare......true story:twisted:

 

[bkshilo]

Medium-rare. Ribeye, T-bone and Porterhouse are all yummy. I generally eat sirloin, however.

 

[hamper19]

All this talk...i'm having me a steak tonight...post post workout meal

I do not eat dead matter. Plus soon as you cook animals it becomes denatured to the point where money per gram of protein is not really worth it. Plus I do not need extra cholestrol nor fat.

Ridiculous.

you don't want dietary fat? what's wrong with you?

You blew away any credibility you would have on any future posts on this board in my opinion.

(you can blame my rage on the meat)

If you backed up what you just said with anything remotely credible, then maybe i would humor you and ponder it.

By the way, you need dietary fat. And Dietary (read spelling) CHOLESTEROL is not as half bad as you think it is, and has not been actually absolutely proven to raise serum HDL and LDL. The Egg people have been fighting that notion for years.

You don't jump in the middle of 20 power/building steak enthusiast and hate on their choice of red meat, vegan!

:run: I'm getting out of here before it gets Ugly...

 

[jminis]

I like mine medium rare. I can't stand when they cook it too long and it's like eating leather.

 

[bpmartyr]

I ate a Vegan rare. I didn't want to denature it's protein any more than it already was.

Soy is better than animal protein. Health care professionals and consumers alike are becoming more aware of the potential benefits that adding protein to the diet can provide. Throughout our lives, protein in our bodies is continuously broken down and remade, thus requiring the addition of protein to our diets. High quality proteins provide the best and most efficient way to meet human nutritional needs. Therefore, it is important that the protein added to the diet is of the highest quality possible.

The nutritional quality of soy protein has been studied in depth. Studies have shown that nitrogen balance, digestibility, and protein utilization are similar between beef and soy proteins. Other studies show that soy protein can support nitrogen balance and does provide adequate amounts of the amino acid methionine, which is important for growth and development. Recent studies have reported that nitrogen absorption, protein digestibility, biological value, and net utilization of soy protein are similar to milk protein.

The high digestibility of soy protein, the content and bioavailability of its amino acids, and the nitrogen content make soy protein a high quality protein. Based on protein digestibility calculations, soy protein achieves a score of 1.0, the highest score possible and on par with other high quality proteins like egg whites and milk proteins. Therefore, the addition of soy to the diet is a good way to meet all of your protein nutritional requirements. Proteins consist of 28 amino acids.
We manufacture 19 amino acids in our livers. Nine essential
amino acids must be obtained from the foods we eat. Many
people believe that animal and plant proteins are exactly
the same. That is not true.

One of those "essential" amino acids is methionine.

One needs methionine for many human metabolic functions
including digestion, detoxification of heavy metals, and
muscle metabolism. However, an excess of methionine can be
toxic and create that acid condition in your blood.

The center atom of methionine is sulfur. That's the problem.
Eat foods containing too much methionine, and your blood
will become acidic. The sulfur converts to sulfates and weak
forms of sulfuric acid. In order to neutralize the acid, in
its wisdom, the body leaches calcium from bones.

"Dietary protein increases production of acid in the blood
which can be neutralized by calcium mobilized from the
skeleton." {American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1995;
61,4}

Animal proteins contain more methionine than plant proteins.
Let's compare cow's milk to soymilk:

Methionine in 100 grams of soymilk: .040 grams
Methionine in 100 grams of whole milk: .083 grams
Methionine in 100 grams of skim milk: .099 grams

Now, let's compare 100 gram portions of tofu to meat:
(All of the meat products are lean and without skin)

Silken soft tofu: .074 grams of methionine
Hamburger: .282 grams of methionine
Hard boiled egg: .392 grams of methionine
Roast ham: .535 grams of methionine
Baked codfish: .679 grams of methionine
Swiss cheese .784 grams of methionine
Roast chicken: .801 grams of methionine

Why do nations with the highest rates of bone disease also
have the highest milk/animal consumption rates? The highest rates
of osteoporosis are to be found in America,Denmark, Holland, Norway,
and Sweden.

have a look

read through it..its much like the argument starting here...

 

[TeamSavage]

Soy is better than animal protein.

For old Asian women harvesting rice, maybe.

For weightliftings/bodybuilders, no.

 

[GREENFEATHER]

I like my steak like I like my pu$$y, NICE AND PINK ! Preferably done on a REAL hardwood fired grille.

Just remember guys, Vegetarian/vegan is the old Blackfoot term for BAD HUNTER!

 

[protomike]

[klugman]
