Why the fuck would you eat any steak cooked less than Well Done? I don't fucking understand it. It's literally just water and uncooked. A well done steak will still be dripping with juice and not need a god dam motherfucking sauce to go with it.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY ANYONE WOULD EAT ANYTHING LESSER COOKED THAN A WELL DONE STEAK

Well friend, that's a really good looking steak and also from a restaurant so probably higher quality and fat content allowing for it to remain juicy even though it's "well done". This is not the case for a piece of shit ribeye or strip from walmart or shoprite.

Assuming this isn't just a troll thread so manchildren can sperg out and spam contrarian opinions, I'll humor you since it's a slow day at work and I have time to kill.

It tastes good. Basically it, same reason you like yours well done. And on top of that, most cuts of steak get a lot tougher when we'll done so it's more tender. I personally like a medium rare, has some pink but no blood. Each to their own, people who sperg about how other people eat their food are unbearable

The less it's cooked, the better the flavor and the texture imo. I enjoy them more when they're so rare they're practically raw on the inside.

Most of the people that like well done steak actually like the crust and they've never had a steak properly cooked. The majority of people only have experience with shitty chain restaurants like Texas Roadhouse, Outback, and Longhorn, or their retarded boomer parents that can't cook for shit. It's either burnt or unrendered raw meat. I remember the first time a friend, who is a chef, cooked a meal for me and my gf and he cooked the entire thing medium rare, then cut it into strips and put a crust on all sides of the steak and it was changed my entire perception of steak. We went to one of those meme wagyu steakhouses in japan and they only order it rare and it was great.

This increases the overall crunchy seared surface area compared to just searing a steak whole and leaving it as is.

How thick of a strip are you talking about?
When I think "strips" I think less than a pinky thick, and I can't fathom a way to crust the newly exposed surface area of those without them cooking all the way through to well done.

Many people fall for the medium rare meme because of celebrity chefs. If properly prepped and cooked, a well done steak can be beautifully done. Now, if we're talking about people ordering a burger "medium rare," that will definitely get me going REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

But to each their own, I guess. Do whatever the fuck you want.

There is a big psyop going on where the shittiest opinion is being pushed like its fact, and I've seen it plenty on other boards too. On /o/ slow economy cars are being pushed as the "right" choice and you are a dumb meathead if you like anything fast or exciting (on a car enthusiast board of all places) and now I've been seeing on /ck/ that well done is the "right" choice and that it tastes the best. I really don't get it.

I have a cheapy supermarket steak that I've salted and let come to room temp. I am going to heat up a pan and cook the steak for only 40 seconds on each side, sprinkle with some black pepper, rest for a bit, and then consume with the insides being pretty much raw, and there's nothing you can do to stop me.

Ketchup on steak is amazing. Before you knock on it, try it. A perfectly seared steak, with all of its maillard and juices, pairs perfectly with the acidic and sweatness of ketchup. Way better and way more healthy than the goyslop that is A1 Steak sauce (which is essentially ketchup but with additives to make it brown).

In an OP that claims Well Done does not need any sauces.

a medium rare steak is *objectively* juicier and more tender than a well-done one. that's how the meat proteins behave with heat.
most steak cuts become inedibly dry and chewy when cooked for too long.

where do you get this bullshit? I like medium rare because I like it. I started liking it when I was about 12. my parents always cooked it done. getting a medium rare steak was mind blowing. there is nothing better.
