How rare is too rare in steak?

the main thing is, is the fat softened and melted. if there's no fat, you can go as rare as you dare. if there's even a trace of fat, you really need to cook it

that's raw

I suspect a large percentage of people who claim to prefer rare steak started pretending to like it as adolescents and were too stubborn to admit it tastes like shit.

It's not too rare unless it's still mooing

there used to be this package of raw marinated fajita meat
one for me, one for the skillet. one for me, one for the skillet. raw steak is awesome

Medium rare only please

Why is blue rare and rare the same temp

>>21458040 (OP)
I can no longer eat meat rarer than medium (not medium rare) after that one time one of my college professors was grilling in the campus and the retard handed me a beef heart skewer that was 100% raw on the inside.

Because the image is wrong. Blue rare is cooked to 115-120 internally.

lol, I suspect you're a fucking retard. Why are you people like this? Only on 4chan do you find this kind of opinion.

>I don't like X so anyone "pretending to like it" must be performing for the benefit of others like me, in order to "impress" us or something. They should just eat what they like, which CANNOT possibly be rare beef.

You should kill yourself because there's no way you'd think differently with your inferior brain.

Why? Did you become sick? You can eat whatever you want.

No, it's usually the opposite from what I've seen. As a kid I hated steak because my parents always cooked it well done then slathered it in A1 or gravy. We also didn't get good cuts. It was usually just some thin cheap T-bone.

It wasn't until I started cooking and buying my own food at restaurants that I realized steak doesn't have to be dry, and beef doesn't actually have to be cook until gray. My mom complain about any amount of pink in beef, so I thought that was normal. Now I prefer medium rare or rare because it's just better and more flavorful.

Depends on the cut/amount of intramuscular fat

I like my steaks blue rare. I like the raw texture and flavor.
