That’s still deep red and gel-like in the center, it’s rare.
It’s not “inedible and raw”, like your wife said, but the people in these comment saying medium-rare don’t know what they’re talking about.

The sear ring is so thick that you have every temperature represented.

That’s medium rare which is a red center. If the entire inside was red, that would be rare.
I think your wife might like medium well better.

Med rare all day

I think we all know what you need to do…. get a new wife, this one is clearly broken.

Two minutes more and that steak would have been a perfect medium rare. It was just in between rare and medium rare. Would I send it back saying it was rare when I ordered medium rare? No. Would I send it back for being medium rare if I ordered rare….probably.

Between medium and medium rare

You have a gray band of overcooked on top and more of a rare on the bottom, indicating that your temperature control can be improved for a more uniform steak – you can use a timer! A little too raw for me, but it is preferential honestly.

It’s not raw lol, it’s just Hemoglobin, an “iron-rich protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to the body’s tissues and muscles.”

It’s medium rare-ish. If she likes medium to medium well, then it’s def too rare.
With thicker steaks especially, you gotta let them come to room temp. It was definitely cooked longer on one side, so it’s pretty uneven. The heat was probably too low, too.
It takes some practice (temp, timing, thickness), no matter what your average Redditor says.

I was a Chef for 15 years and I would call that Med/Rare. It’s absolutely not Med, but it’s also absolutely not Rare, so there’s really only one other option without getting into nit picky levels Medium / Medium-Rare.
It also matters how long it’s been sitting there. Because it’s definitely on its way to Medium through carryover cooking. It’s also a bit lop sided, the top is more medium and the bottom is more Medium/Rare

It’s medium rare. She wants well-done shoe leather.

Medium, it’s way more cooked than I do normally

I’d say medium rare

Lighting is terrible so hard to tell but looks like the streak was cold so it’s rare in the middle and medium to the crust

Keep cooking it like that. More for you.
The very center is quite rare
