I made this steak for my dad.
He likes it rare. He said I messed it up and didn't do it right.
I think it's rare. He said it's closer to well-done

The outer 25% is well done. You messed up, Son.

Another shot
thats medium at best
It's like medium.
>>7398719
That is medium rare headed into medium. Different restaurants will have a different vernacular for this level of doneness, but that's not really relevant.
Point is your dad probably likes blue rare and so he's going to complain unless you Pittsburgh his steak.
yeah its medium
>>7398738
Yeah. That's what differentiates medium rare from medium well.
The gradations are very specific and it doesn't take much to slide from one to another.
>>7398719
I'd eat it and Id enjoy it pham
Don't let your pops break your balls
perfect medium steak
rare has bright red, yours has none
>tfw I always get my steaks medium
>because I secretly hate rare steak
You're a pathetic excuse for a son, OP.
Your average person will call this medium rare.
A professional cook/chef will call this literally at the tipping point of being medium.

shoulda used a probe thermometer

How long did you cook it for?
>tfw when you'll never have a son to abuse for cooking a steak incorrectly
>>7398719
Your dad is a fag. Real men eat their steaks burnt to hell.

You need to handle steaks more harshly. High heat for a quick sear, with short duration. If you've got a pan hot enough, cooking an inch-thick steak properly won't take more than 5-6 minutes in total for rare. After it's done let it sit. Don't cut it to test it's done-ness, just have confidence that you did it right.
Get a pan screaming hot, and go ~2 minutes for rare per side, then let it sit there for 5 minutes, off the pan, before you touch it.
