Yesterday it was finally made official: Sierra was being whittled by the Vivendi pocket-knife once again, and the amazing studio that was Dynamix closed shop forever. So what is a Corporate Fun Committee to do? Say I know! Why dont you rent out some nice green pasture and you throw yourselves a picnic in the park! Wheeeee!

Hey guys,

Don't knock the veggieburgers!

When you're vegetarian, there's not much else to choose from on the menu.

Actually, I prefer GardenBurgers.

They aren't disgusting like veggieburgers.

I'm carniverous... I keep ordering my meat rarer and rarer... and the other day I had this craving to just gnaw into a raw steak... I'd probably regret it... but then again... it would taste soooo good.

Kit, you sound like my uncle.... he was known for entering steakhouses and responding to the 'how would you like the meat cooked?' question with this: "Oh, just wipe its nose and send it on out."

Medium Well for me. Gotta have it cooked all the way through.

Errk! Have to have my steak medium RARE, thank you , Bug-ster. I like mine just at that lovely point where the cook yells "Get a BandAid, we can save this steer!"

You've already butchered the poor critter, why burn it to death?

RJ, you may have my share of any gardenburgers you find.

Unless the meat is cooked well, it makes for messy eating with mandibles.

Ahhh, seriously tho, it's just a personal preference. *shrug*

True, true. Whatever floats your boat. Unless it's a gardenburger.

From my understanding there is like 5 ways to cook meat.

1. Raw (No Cooking So i guess theres really only 4 )
2.
3. Medium Rare ( about HALF of it is Red.)
4. Medium Done (Only a verry small amount is red VERY small)
5.Well done. (Self explanitory.)


As you can see i forgot the #2 one. but i think thats ok you guys get the Picture my main purpose was to tell you what i like.

i like from 3-5

I personally like Medium Done best cause its cooked all the way through MOSTLY but still has a little Red to make it a verry JUCIEY piece of meat.

My second choise would be Well Done. Cause i dont like the thought of Blood all that much. (i am a wimp) also cause few cooks can cook a Medium Done very well. its always either MR/#3 or WD/#5

and third i would go for Medium rare. Every now and then i got to have a Medium rare just cause (cant explain) but i could never handle something as bloody as raw and stuff


well i hope than made sence.

Red face

#2 on your list is Rare... Where almost all of the meat is bloody (There is actually little difference between raw and rare).

Rare= warm on the outside.

My grandmother got a tapeworm once by eating raw meat. (Steak tartare, whatever)
