You're out with friends or family to get a bite. Do you order rare, medium rare, or dry as fuck?

you can put a good steak sauce on any kind of steak
and i can already tell people are thinking "well if the steak is properly made it doesn't need sauce"
fuck whether it needs sauce or not, it still tastes good with steak sauce, pan sauce, butter, etc.

I've never eaten a rare burger, ever. I've always been told that ground beef should always be cooked through. Is it good? I understand that you don't do rare burgers with grocery ground meat.
Rare steak for me, but I'm not picky as long as it's well prepared.

Burger and steak are very different.
Ground beef the inside is the outside so well done is the safest solution.
Steak you only need to char the outside to be safe.
So saying that,
Steak like 135-140 F.
Burger medium. But if the place looks iffy, well done.

I like my burgers on the done side... it's a burger. I mean true burgers have like egg and shit mixed in with a ton of other stuff. Real weird to have a poll for burgers and steaks. Polar opposites.
A steak I'll take rare/mediumrare.

Eating out I rarely eat red meat, well done if I do. At home rare/bloody checked with thermometer.
I never specify with burgers or see the need to. I also almost never order steak when out, but when I do it's medium well. So it tastes good.
Condiments are disgusting.

Actually not from a restaurant! I meant than real good burgers have a bit of egg mixed with the meat.
Fried egg, a burger patty and an English muffin is an awesome poor dinner though.
If you grind it yourself or ask your butcher to grind it right there, you are pretty safe with rare burgers.
Burgers are just ground up steaks. And better burgers are ground up better steaks
Steak: Medium rare, though I won't turn my nose up at medium. Rare has a gross texture and not enough flavor. Well done is gross in every way.
Burger: I prefer medium, but I'll eat medium rare. Well done gets thrown in the fridge and used for something like chili or mac n' cheese later.

Burgers need to be well done, but they have to be a fattier cut. You can't cook a 97% lean burger and have it well done, but an 85%? Yeah that can be juicy without pink and be delicious.
Steaks I used to only eat well done, now I eat them medium well. Again, unless you have a shitty steak it's not going to be anywhere near dry. Get some quality steaks with marbling and you'd have to literally burn them to a crisp to make them dry.
