Is this cooked long enough?

This is my first time cooking a steak on a cast iron, I feel like it may be too pink?

    Does look too pink to me i’d definitely eat it

    I would enjoy that level of doneness. looks like rare to med rare to me, not blue (very rare). the sear looks burnt to me so I would prefer deep sear vs char but to each their own

    The quality of.the steak is what matters. If it was a mediocre quality it’s going to be tough and mediocre regardless of whether you hit the most picture perfect most even pink.

    And it it’s excellent quality, you can accidentally cook it 20-degrees past your target temp and it will still be excellent and tender.

    Yeah you shouldn’t eat that… Give it here. I’ll take care of it for ya

    That’s medium. Personally I prefer rare/blue but that looks good.

    That’s cooked for sure. All these posts are about preference. Most everyone here will eat a steak as long as the meat still has color and it’s not dry or tough

    Near perfection… quite near…. IMO 👍🏻

    Little over but depends on the cut and grade

    Are you a troll? Steak is supposed to be pink at worst.

    The answer to your question is always “yes”. Undercooking is hard. Overcooking is easy.

    I’d say a little bit too long, but different strokes. I like mine a little more rare than average.

    I’d be ecstatic to be served this and give compliments to the chef in any case though. Looks great to me.

    Depends on how you like it. That looks fine, but if it didn’t hit for you switch up the cook next time.

    If anything it’s a little overcooked. One side has a pretty thick gray band

    That’s how I would eat it. Maybe even a little less cooked.
