    It’s definitely rare plus. And with that amount of fat could actually use more cook. No matter how you like a steak, if you’re cooking it for someone really all that matters is getting it how they prefer.

    I prefer the fat rendered with still maintaining the raw side.

    What I think depends on how much you like your wife.

  6. BaetrixReloaded

    cook it how your guest likes it. weird thing to serve someone rare steak that likes it more well done

    you also didn’t do a great job, the fat needs more rendering which probably added to her aversion

    Click bait title in which you are very clearly in the wrong. Fuck this post.

    It’s on the rare side of rare. Great steak – for the people that prefer it that rare.

    When cooking steaks always ask people how they want them done. If the person you’re asking has… questionable… understanding of steak (MIL is prime example) show them pictures of cut steaks and have them pick the one they want lol

    Could use another minute or two, but I would definitely eat it.

    Looks great to me but it’s a matter of taste. Slice off a piece for her and put it in the microwave for 3-5 minutes.

    People like different kinds of steak. She shouldn’t judge yours, you shouldn’t judge hers. Next time, cook hers more.

    Medium rare from what I can see. Would eat it gladly lol

  22. Maleficent-Bit1995

    Well that just means that’s one less person u have to try to cook for

  23. yoyo1time

    Microwave it for 10 minutes—see if she happy then….

  24. unixman84

    I’m color blind. I would devour it. It looks perfect to me. I would probably eat all that fat first.

    if someone is finicky, I just buy some strip steaks, make fajitas, or velvet it, and make broccoli beef, sooo good 😉

    You need to replace you MIL, you dont need that negativity

  30. Dissasociaties

    Left overs for you. Mother in law loses some calories. Win win

  34. sazerak_atlarge

    whatever she imagines, it isn’t raw by any objective standard

  35. RiderFZ10

    Good, more for you. Throw some baby carrots on the ground and tell her to go hog wild on them.

  36. JackBoxParty

    How did she ask for it? If she wanted it rare or maybe even medium rare then that looks about right, but definitely not medium, medium well, or well

    I will “fix” any complaints in the microwave, or provide them with chicken and eat their “raw” steak in front of them. I do not suffer fools lightly, and I enjoy the SHIT out of the meats that I cook. I ALWAYS cook some chicken to 165F to appease the idiots in the group. It’s not my fault they’re stupid, but they deserve to eat something.

  39. SwiftGasses

    This sub, and r/mildlyinfuriating makes me pray I never have a MIL.

    The nice thing about steak, when it’s undercooked based on the eater’s preference, is that you can cook it more

  44. Sleepyand_in_love

    Fat could use a bit more rendering for me but the steak temp is fine

  45. Villain8893

    Save the money on picanha if she can’t appreciate it. Now cookin the type of meat for a guest at well done is fine… but it won’t be the picanha. Give her ass some round or strip. 😂
