Okay fine I'll make a srs post for once.
I don't like rare because it's too chewy. If it's not done right then it can also be a bit lukewarm compared to the outside crust of the steak. Last time I went to a wedding the catering service fucked up the filet mignon steaks that the majority of the guests had. Because it was over fifty people these motherfuckers just had to speed cook the steaks. I couldn't even finish my steak because not only was it just fucking plain raw in the middle, but it was practically cold in the perfect middle of it no less. Considering it was a wedding, I didn't want to be an uppity bitch and make a scene about people's steaks being fucked up.
So, yeah. Rare is shit. Give me medium rare, it's the perfect middle ground. "Rare" enough to be chewy and delicious with juices, but also cooked enough to ensure you actually have a hot piece of beef to eat.
