What makes you happy?

I always ask for my steak to be cremated, if I wanted it to bleed while I eat it I'd eat it live.

So I'm understanding the nuked steak is the bleeding one :) it?

Love steak :D (put the Ian Siegal's Meat and Potato playing here)

Cut off the horns, wipe it's arse and it's ready for the plate  :lol:

Actually I prefer mine around the medium mark,  just cooked enough for the sugars to crystalise.  Off for a walk up the shop for tonights dinner.  Might get a steak (or go through the fields and steal a cow)

oh, i get a nice colour on the outside, you have to have the caramelisation.. cooking it black and blue is best if the steak is good enough.

If i am doing something like rump it gets a little longer, rib eye would get a bit longer again as its fatty enough not to dry out and the fat isnt as pleasant nearly raw

Did you see the Heston Blumenthal programme where he did the "perfect" steak? 

He cooked it for about 300 years at 50 degrees C or something - at which point it still looked completely raw - then blowtorched the outside.  It looked absolutely horrible.   :(

No, nuked is the same as cremated. 

I guess naked would be the bleeding one.  Sort of. :lol:

I saw him deep fry a whole chicken once...

Did you see him do the Little Chef thing?  That chief exec was one of the biggest knob-heads I've seen (and that is against some very stiff competition).  I've been intending on going to the Fat Duck for a long time now.

Nice food - that makes me happy.  Off to Jamie Olivers (Fifteen Cornwall) in March.  Been there before and it was lovely.  Dead simple food, but really top notch ingredients and really nice.

I only eat it bleeding if my dad makes it, cause he's a chef so of course it's safe.. right? .. RIGHT!?!?!?

But when I cook it I like it to be not bleeding all over me.

[WezV]

its safe anyway, beef can be eaten quite raw if the inclination takes you but i wouldnt recommend it unless you have a good cut.  i always eat steak on the day i buy it to be sure

Pork's safe to eat a little rare now as well, at least british pork is.. its nice not having to overcook a chop

One more "napalm-burnt" steak lover here :D :lol:

[Johnny Mac]

I like them with a pink middle. The best one I ever had was in a place called Port Cambell on the Great Ocean Road in Victoria, Australia. It was about an inch and a half thick and cheap as they're the norm around there.  :)

We have Costa at work so I have to buy different when I'm out and about!  :lol:

Nero is good, but their cash only policy can be a pain if I've forgotten to go the bank.

ah, yeah, that makes sense. having stuff at work kinda spoils it for the rest of the time. :lol:

never really noticed the cash only policy, but then i don't use cards really. :lol:

don't like rare steak either, i prefer it to be cooked.
