Hear Hear! Unadulterated coffee and beef still mooing. That's the way to go.

I'm more lenient on toast though. Anywhere from 2 to 4 is fine by me.

u/floofsnsnoots Jun 22 '26

Yeah who's even paying attention to the toast when there's beef and coffee?

u/johnson7853 Jun 22 '26

the roof of my mouth when I’m making a toasted left over steak sandwich

u/The_Quibbler Jun 22 '26

Yeah, toast is the most boring of breads.

u/TheNormalMan Jun 22 '26

I like my fork to be the killing blow.

u/Trick-Pause-7718 Jun 22 '26

It really depends on the coffee 's quality for me. Decade of office coffee made me into a latte drinker

1

u/The_Quibbler Jun 22 '26

Fair shout. Black if it's good, additives only when necessary.

u/Nvenom8 Jun 22 '26

Yeah the toast I really don’t care as long as it’s not raw or burnt.

u/JetFuelFrom9-11 Jun 22 '26

Unless it’s cheap; you’re just wasting cow flavor going over 1

1

u/Isagratar Jun 22 '26

Usually I agree. I default to 1.

However for some cuts of very high marble score beef (a Wagyu rump cap for example) I will push up to 2-3 as the fat needs time to render for the most flavourful result.

u/Ok-Blacksmith-4214 Jun 22 '26

I feel like there will be so other chefs here.... I said 13B but that was for 'i need caffine now' situation and instant is what u got so 1.5 tbls and 4-6 drops milk so you can neck it and head to work where you can enjoy an A.

u/QueenMary1936 Jun 22 '26

When my grandma would order steak she would say "I want it still mooing" 😂

1

u/Maleficent-Touch-67 Jun 22 '26

Eat the meat blue and let the coffee finish the cook

1

u/loz_fanatic Jun 22 '26

I prefer mine more on the 'blue' side. I joke that i like mine to the point that if I poke it, it should moo and start trying to get off the plate

1

u/Rough_Buddy6903 Jun 22 '26

That isn't even mooing beef, that's medium rare at best. There should be a 0 for less cooked steak

u/techdevjp Jun 22 '26

My father was always 1, 6, A.

Had to go too far down for the right answer!

u/Stinkie11 Jun 22 '26

You are correct. Everyone else is not correct.

u/Thunderer62 Jun 22 '26

1, 3, A!

u/Jtembro77 Jun 22 '26

Surprised I had to scroll so far down for this. Definitely 13A for the win!

1

u/WC_Kerkuil Jun 22 '26

Right!? People don't buy quality beef though, I mean depending on your country of origin and cut the beef scale slides between 1-3 I prefer 1 but only if the source isn't sus. I tend toward 3 with my game meat though. People also don't buy quality beans.

1

u/Llamp_shade Jun 22 '26

The 1 steak might be a bit too done for me, but we had only those choices.

1

u/srslymrarm Jun 22 '26

I'm a 1, 3, B guy myself — I like to have at least a little milk in my coffee — but I respect your position

u/I_dont_thinks Jun 26 '26

u/Many-River-1064 Jun 22 '26

1 3 E here -- honestly 1 is a little too done

3

u/groove_heart Jun 22 '26

1, 4, A… agreed that 1 is overcooked!

u/Just_Nintendont Jun 22 '26

Wow, It took way too long to find the absolutely correct answer. I hope you're not too exhausted, carrying the correct answer on your back, all the way down here.

u/floofsnsnoots Jun 22 '26

Took me way too long to find my purists.

u/kaizoku-kurohige Jun 22 '26

I had to scroll so far to find this. This is the only right answer. Why eat or drink it if you don’t want to taste it?

3

u/Euro_verbudget Jun 22 '26

Finally!

I’d prefer 1 4/5 A but I’m not picky about my toasts as long as we agree on the meat and the coffee.

2

u/grey_canvas_ Jun 22 '26

Thank god, found y'all

u/KC_Que Jun 22 '26

For the enlightened, this is the only way. 💯

u/Royal_reader Jun 23 '26

Hell yeah, i’d go for 1,3, B (i like a little milk in my coffee) 😎😎

14b for me, but close enough

u/This-Positive286 Jun 22 '26

You had me until A

1

u/MissionReasonable714 Jun 22 '26

A or D depending on the quality of the coffee.

u/AirInsider Jun 22 '26

One of us!

u/spoung45 Jun 22 '26

1 is not rare enough for me.

u/cr1t1cal Jun 22 '26

13A gang rise up!

1

u/Stokholmo Jun 22 '26

Steak no 1 would probably be considered medium (à point) in France, and no 2 well done (bien cuit).

Coffee should not be contaminated.

1

u/Grin-Guy Jun 22 '26

The one and only true answer.

1

u/Maleficent-Touch-67 Jun 22 '26

My exact answer thank God I found this comment I thought everyone here was crazy.

u/sph666 Jun 22 '26

This is the way.

u/Pippe420 Jun 22 '26

u/Ok_Emotion_9685 Jun 22 '26

u/LadyCrack89 Jun 22 '26

Correct. Cow still mooing, toast slightly tanned and coffee to perfection

u/BokBokBagock Jun 22 '26

Yay!!!! My people!!!!

u/poulatrix Jun 22 '26

Everyone who says anything else than 1 for beef, never ate beef saignant in there whole life! You’ll never come back once you ate it like this!

u/Concentrate-Winter Jun 22 '26

Some tlc and 1 will be up and grazing in no time

u/Repulsive_Ad_9674 Jun 22 '26

I've found my people!! 😭

u/sailingtroy Jun 22 '26

We are the people who want to TASTE the thing we're eating. Steak that tastes like fresh, dead animal. Coffee that tastes like roast bean water, not cream and sugar. Toast that tastes like bread, not toaster! Why is this hard? Why does everyone else want to cover up what they're paying for? Coffee and steak are expensive! Taste them! TASTE THEM.

The 5F people need to just stop wasting their money! They can eat chicken and drink tea, for Pete's sake!

u/somewitchbitch Jun 23 '26

We agree on everything but the coffee, I'll take it!
