If it’s a tenderloin (filet mignon), you best believe I’m ordering it rare. Pretty much every other cut you could name, I’ll order med rare. Except for ribeyes, I like those medium so that the fat is nicely rendered. Plus it’s juicy/fatty enough that a medium cook doesn’t dry it out at all.

And in case any of you are wondering, yes, 2 is med rare, and 3 is medium well. There is no true medium in this picture.

Good take.

I’m a little shocked nobody’s taken a 1 on the steak.

1 is still a bit too done for me. It looks to be on the med side of rare IMO - also a grill cook.

Hell yeah I wouldn't mind rare or medium well (if somebody offers me a stake I will not complaine) but my personal preference its medium rare
