I don't want it THAT rare!!!

My husband and I are complete oposites. I was raised with parents who like their meat blackened, and I'd rather eat it mooing. His parents make it rare and he can't stand to see pink in his meat.
We should have grown up in oposite housing

I like my steak medium-rare to rare I really don't like a steak that is too done... Just doesn't taste right or have the right texture.

The bloodier the better...just above room temp...say, 101.5°F.
(the 'supposed' normal body temp of a cow.)

I don't eat red meat much but when I do I like it very well done.

The bloodier the better. I rarely eat red meat, though. I mostly eat poultry and when I get the chance to go fishing, fish.

Grr, the guy a couple posts above me stole my terminology...

My mother, who I love to death, has never seemed to get the hang of cooking red meat. My father, sister and I all love it rare. She likes, as she says, well done. And I can't complain too much being as I didn't cook it as a kiddo, but her idea of "rare" is practically beef jerky. Her idea of well done is just shy of turning into charcoal. I can't really recall any meals she cooked with red meat that I could eat and enjoy at the same time.

The real key in my opinion is flash cooking. Crank up the heat! Get it nice and crispy on the outside, yet still juicy on the inside. This doesn't count for other cooking, like roasts or ribs or most pork, which MUST be cooked S L O W L Y.

Beef rare and nicely, lightly charred from the grill. I cook all of my meats on the grill no matter the season. Pork slow cooked as with the other white meat. heheh
