If you order any type of expensive cut of meat and cook it to well done you should be slapped. Might as well eat boot leather. 150 degree center is medium.....which is more than the recommended safe temp. for beef/lamb/veal, etc.
Pigeon isn't bad...tastes a lot like Eurasian Dove. Practically the same thing.

A lot of the meat we eat is safe, but if it's cooked rare, then the risk of you getting ascariasis is more likely than not. I've seen too many things associated with that to eat my meat that way. Medium, to medium well is o.k.
Rare? I wouldn't.

I like my steak medium rare. Hot/warm reddish to pinkish (a bit on the bright side of pinkish though) center.
This thread makes me hungry.

Texans know steak
I order my steaks med-rare. I just don't want it to moo at me. My husband can take 'em blue, but I'm not there yet.
And yes, well-done is an affront to bovine dignity and deliciousness.

Oh, the steak has to be medium-rare, if not rare. In a pinch, a medium steak can be choked down with enough wine. Medium-well or well-done is a sin.

If you guys saw some of the things I've seen, you wouldn't eat your meat rare anymore.

We get funny looks from my dad if we order medium, even. I don't think I've ever seen him order anything over medium rare.

What I am really looking forward to after having this kid is a *good* fillet, medium rare, and a big fat stout beer. Mmmmmm

Everyone on here talks about Happy Pony Rainbow Land or whatever...to me, HPRL would be a good filet, medium rare and a big fat stout beer (or good glass of whiskey or scotch, in the alternative).

To me, HPRL sounds like if it was a food, it would be something overly processed, cloyingly saccharine, and completely devoid of nutritional value...like a Tastykake or Little Debbie Snack.

omg! lol I know tell me about it. Last night I went to Outback and ordered the Prime Rib dinner as a carry out, just because of this thread. Aynway, it was so good though. Of course it was "well done". They forgot to put my salad in the bag, but I didn't feel like driving back for it. It was too good to even think about the salad though.
