Can someone explain the rare meat being better meme? The texture is all mushy and watery, I don't get it.
A few years ago I went to a relatively high end steakhouse downtown and ordered two steaks, one rare and one well done, just to compare. The rare steak was diluted in flavor and was so comically wet that it was like they soaked it in a bucket. The well done steak was firm, had a better texture, and tasted just as good if not better. I had no complaints about the juiciness, it was not dry at all like the noodle armed steak snobs make it out to be.
They were the same cut of beef and of nearly equal size, and I trust that a place charging $35+ for a fucking single slab of meat at least kinda knows how to prepare it. Please enlighten me on how rare steak isn't abject shit. I want to be "cultured" like the rest of you.

You see OP, a few years ago I also went to a relatively high end steakhouse downtown and ordered two steaks, one rare and one well done, just to compare. The well done steak was diluted in flavor and was so comically dry that it was like they charred it in a fire. The rare steak was scrumptious, had a better texture, and tasted just as good if not better. I had no complaints about the juiciness, it was not wet at all like the noodle armed steak plebs make it out to be.
They were the same cut of beef and of nearly equal size, and I trust that a place charging $35+ for a fucking single slab of meat at least kinda knows how to prepare it.

but that's a fabrication not set in reality
reality is rare steak is garbage in 8/10 scenarios and is only enjoyed for status
>>9765498
So anyone who has a differing taste is shitposting?
Anyone who asks a question is shitposting?
I haven't worked in a restaurant. I don't know your terminology.

It's an industry term that means "felon" that usually has a line or two when he is supposed to be cooking
