Are you team Medium Rare or Well Done? 🥩
A raging debate more controversial than ones political beliefs, that I’m sure will continue in the comment section. Here is my perspective:
People should enjoy what they like and should not be judged for it. However, I do believe that objectively, certain cuts are optimized at different temperatures based on 3 variables: tenderness, juiciness, and flavor. Here are some examples:
Filet mignon: extremely lean and tender meaning it will quickly deteriorate and dry out if over cooked. For that reason a low temperature between 120-130F (rare) is often preferred. Cook a filet to 165F (well done) and the result will be extremely dry.
Brisket: filled with collagen and extremely tough, only becoming tender and juicy at high temps. Taking it up to a high internal temp between 200-210F (well done) is preferred. Cook a brisket to medium rare, and the result will be inedibly chewy.
As such, internal temps are highly dependent on the cut of beef itself!
Another critical piece of information is that some cultures commonly consume cuts that are optimized at lower temps while others primarily eat cuts that are high in collagen and require “well done”. I think this contributes to such strong and often conflicting opinions of the best way to cook beef.
With that said, I highly encourage you to continue experimenting and finding your own preference.

I am lame😂
Medium rare are disgusting. Idiots eat them.
Well done, you'd better slice it as thin as you can and throw it in a sandwich with Swiss and caramelized onions, then dip in aux jous made with the juices. Cause that's basically the only way to enjoy that at that point
When in doubt, French dip
Thats raw
If you wamt well done just order the chicken.
Medium is middle we can all agree be happy we shouldn't fight for extra 14 seconds but well done oh boy
How about Medium-Well?
that is not well done well done is still a little pink
Medium is pretty good too. It's a nice entry point for people who get squeamish about Medium rare.
“How to eat a steak”
“ you need it medium rare to eat all the blood inside it”
That medium rare looks raw
Yeah but try with a thin steak
You should have taken the world done one off at like 55
