mmmmmmmm......sooooo good. grilled ribeye steak for me family tonight (just got done eating it) on the charcoal grill....omgsogood. perfectly medium. I think the key was letting it come completely up to room temperature before cooking it. 6 and 4 minutes to a side, 1" thick steaks.


what'd ya'll have for dinner?

There's no such thing as perfect medium, only far too overcooked medium.

Mmmmmm, perfect rare.

BTW, great choice on ribeye and BBQ. :)

Medium-rare is the best IMO :)

I had Tapanyaki Chicken & Rice from Japanese Express and some fruits afterwards :)

That's how I always get my steaks cooked, but I've noticed a lot of places can't do a medium rare very well at all.

agreed, but most places i eat tend to be slightly more towards rare, which is fine by me :)

Tonight i actually went to outback to use a gift certificate a friend had given me. It was meh, i had the outback special (which is top sirloin? or ribeye? doesn't really matter tome..) and it was just meh. Pretty decent for steak, but nowhere near the best i've had.

I agree, medium rare is the best.

For dinner, I had chicken and ribs off a charcoal grill. :D

World Buffet in West Covina CA. $12 a head. They had all you can eat Korean BBQ , crab legs, duck and the other typical asian buffet food. The food was good compared to other cheapy buffets.

to be honest, it was more of a medium rare, because all the middle was pinkish-red, but not rare because it wasn't red enough imo.

medium is when the inner middle third is pink, med well is when only a sliver is pink, and well done is not a steak at all.
