my brother informed me last night that he has officially made the switch from medium to medium rare. im happy for him. so many of us are raised on medium or worse that it takes time to transition to medium are.

Hubby was raised on well done, of course he never had a real steak or what we think of as real one until he met me. His mom's idea of steak was swiss steak and her idea of a raost was pot roast. I doubt she had ever had a rump, sirloin, or rib. I remember my parents taking his parents out for dinner not long before our weeding. Mom and dad wanted to talk about wedding plans so we all went to a mid priced steak house my parents often visited. Frist of all dinner was set for 4pm on a Sunday. His parents got to our house about 3pm so they could ride with mom and dad. We found out then, because dinner was served at 1pm at thier house on Sundays, they ate at home, before coming. When we got to the restaurant his dad ordered a filet, well done and his mom ordered a sirloin steak cause someone had told her it was just like hamburger meat. Now, after years of training (I sometimes call it theropy, others call it brain washing) I have trained him to eat his meat medium rare and he loves it.

The best part of the steak or roast is dunking a piece of good quality bread in that juice and eating the bread...Thanks dad for teaching me this...
Well done. The more well done the better. It cannot be over-cooked. I do not like CHARRED, but there must be positively, absolutely NO PINK whatsoever. I don't mind if it gets a little chewy, in fact, I like it better that way. I like a little mouth texture when I eat.
