Medium Rare Or Well Done...How Do You Prepare Your Steak? (See Post)🥰

There has been a debate in my family about this! I do not eat meat, but when I did, it was DEFINITELY medium rare for me.❤ 😁 I felt like well done was eating leather; it was just SO tough! I now realize I was likely OVERCOOKING it!😁 Since this is GRILLING season, I thought this might be fun!😊

How do you prefer to prepare your steak for grilling, for fajitas, salads, sandwiches, soups, burritos etc...? Do you marinate, dry rub, lightly season.?

@SandySparkles - We're trying to cut down on red meat, but we do like a good steak once in a while! We use very little seasoning - maybe a little Montreal steak, then I have a mix of garlic and some other spices I like. That's if I grill them inside.

If DH grills them outside he doesn't use anything!

I like my steaks medium. DH likes his medium-rare.

We used to make Sukiyaki at the table with strip steak when the kids were home. It was fun! We haven't done that in a while!

We aren't big beef eaters either and may eat red meat 3 or 4 times during summer grilling season. When we do, it's tenderloin steak or waygu beef burgers. Only seasoning on both is salt and pepper on top. Our steak...rare always - melts in your mouth and delicious with a quick outside char. The burgers, medium rare. I can't do well done grilled beef. Like chewing on a boot 🥾

@SandySparkles I love medium rare steak! Steak is fun to cook- I've made dry rubbed tri tip, marinated grilled carne asada, some cheesesteak sandwiches and steak fajitas.

I'm not a steak lover, but if I have one I'd like it to be medium.

I like a medium rare ribeye with Montreal steak seasoning, finished off with a pat of garlic herb butter while it's resting.

Haven't had a steak in 28 years. DH has 1-2 per year. He has to cut down on red meat and especially steaks. He likes filets cooked with nothing, medium. No steak sauce. Just steak. We go to a steak house that is notoriously high the one or two occasions each year and I think they season his steak while cooking, but he doesn't. Doesn't matter. That's the only one he wants if he only has it 1-2 x per year, so he doesn't mind the high price, since it's a rare occasion and the steak is delicious. I get lobster.
