As a child, I hated blood on my plate. Well done for me.
Now I don't mind medium-rare, but the plate better not be swimming in blood, especially if that blood is mixing with other foods on the plate.

shareCan steakschool explain to me what to ask for if I want it well done on the outside but still pink in the middle?
I like the hard crispy bits you get on the outside with a "well done" , but not the dryness in the middle.
but a Medium has a nice juicy middle , but not the nice crispy outside bits.
but yet "medium well done" doesnt seem to be a phrase the way the way "medium rare" is.
Depends of what kind of restaurant you're at. If it's not a joint that specializes in beef, you'll be at their mercy.
When cooking at home, I like to sear the steak on extremely high heat for a couple minutes each side - to get those crispy bits - and then finish it in the oven. Most important step is to let it rest afterwards.
Thanks!
good tips
I used to do it that way and wanted something a little easier so what I do now is simply flip every 60 seconds and it works great, no oven step needed. First two minutes (1 minute per side) very high heat, then lower to medium and flip every 60 seconds until desired doneness. For me, this is 6 to 8 minutes (3-4 min. per side) depending on thickness of the steak.
shareI'm going to give this a try next time I buy a steak.
shareI little more than medium. A bit of pink in the middle.
