    Depends on the meat. A good steak, and I mean a good steak, medium rare leaning to rare...

    Average steak, medium other wise, it will be shit...

    I will never lie to you. What I say is how I feel...

    This is the answer. Different meats require different cooks :).

    I don't agree with prime rib blue though. Bit too chewy and fatty for that.

    I like most of my red meat medium rare, but will not judge you on how you eat your meat.
    You do you and I'll do me

    If it's chewy, it's not prime rib. Good prime rib you don't even need a knife for; just cut it with the side of your fork.

    I'd be interested to hear your reasoning behind this. I'm working at a steak restaurant atm, we serve 6-8 week dry aged prime ribs, quality is very good (imo).

    I've been taught that fattier cuts such as prime rib and entrecote require a higher internal temperature (at least 52C) so around a medium, in order for the fat to start melting and allow the meat to soften.

    At blue, I don't think the fat starts to melt, hence the chewiness. What's your opinion on this?

    If prime rib is what the Brits call ribeye, then blue is far too undercooked. The fat needs to be rendered to be edible which would make the meat best served medium rare (the one option that isn't provided in the poll, despite being the most popular way to cook fatted red meats). Blue ribeye means the fat is raw, and wouldn't pass in most UK pubs, let alone a decent restaurant with actual chefs.

    You'd be better having a bland fatless fillet rather than wasting a decent cut of beef - fillet is for people who order off a menu based on price rather than the quality of the food.

    I stand corrected. Most people would probably enjoy medium rare prime rib the best.

    Goat for (most) curry, beef for rendang. Sadly I've never had buffalo, and probably never will, since I stopped eating mammals in 1993.

    God I miss rendang, though...without a doubt, properly made, it's the best beef dish ever.

    It really depends on which red meat/style of cut and what dish is being made.

    Even if we're just using beef as the red meat, meals like a stew is generally well done because of the long time simmering while other specific cuts like redeye or filet mignon are fine in the rare to medium, or even tartare for the raw ground meat folks.
