Yall well doners are truly missing out and you don’t even know it.
Out of curiosity. What was the first thing I said in my comment?
Again: I don’t disagree that a medium rare is best; and it can be cooked safely to medium rare and still be perfectly safe to eat. Nor do I disagree that everything else being equal, on a proper cut o steak, well done is going to be more dry. but that is all relative. (and some cuts of steak, you need the slower cooking time to actually get it tender. usually, that’s cheaper cuts. But you can get pretty impressive results with a rump roast and extra time.)
however, there are people that will order a well-done steak precisely because they’re immunocompromised and can’t afford the risk of someone fucking up the cook times. The kind of people who can’t control cook times for a well done steak, are also the kind of people who simply can’t control cook times.
I wouldn’t be worried about it at a proper steak house… but Mar-a-shit-go? nope. but I wouldn’t be caught dead eating at that place.
