Medium rare is perfect for me. I'll go for rare occasionally, but that's pretty uncommon (not to say rare...).
russed said:is the poll on the french scale where asking for medium rare is basically blue whilst blue is the animal is still moving?
or is it the american scale where medium rare is well done and well done is a pile of ashes?

But you meant it as a joke, right? Rare as in "still alive"...Abstract said:I went to a friend's BBQ yesterday and he asked me how I like I steak cooked. I said "Rare." Everyone thought I was disgusting for eating anything rare or medium-rare, as if I was holding a cow and just biting it's side while it was still alive and mooing.

There was actually blood, but the chips / fries had soaked it up before I took the photo.
It was cooked for about 45 secs per side.
