My parents have always been a well done type of couple growing up
Finally got them to upgrade to medium-well awhile ago (baby steps) lol
Anyways, I had always grown up ordering well done steak because thatβs all Iβve ever known
Go to my best friendβs house one night and his dad is cooking up steaks for us
Heβs a big guy and if you saw him back then, you can tell he was a man who knows how to cook some good food
He asks how Iβd like my steak done
I say βwell doneβ because again, thatβs all Iβve ever known lol
He just stares at me for like ten seconds and then finally says βabsolutely fucking not, not in my house - youβll have it medium tonightβ
Here I am, a scrawny 14 year old, like wtf am I gonna say or do here
Itβs a free steak and his house so I canβt say anything but deep down I thought I was about to be eating βbloodβ for the first time and kinda nervous
Ends up being one of the best steaks of my life and finally got to taste what a real steak should taste like
Came home that night and told my parents Iβll never eat well done again and they robbed me of my childhood (joking)
And from that day on, I always get it medium or medium rare
Forever grateful for that night haha
What else does this steak need?
