    I like it medium rare. That said, I often order steak rare. Too many places don’t know what medium rare looks like, or take it off the heat when it’s already medium rare. So if I get a steak at like Outback, I get rare (which ends up medium rare). At a proper steak restaurant, I get medium rare.

    QOTD: Medium Rare, the only way to have it.

    Nice show. Before I got into wine I would drink tea or Sprite with all of my food. Sprite is sweet, not like dessert wine, but sweet none-the-less. I think that is why a dessert wine might pair well with steak or any food.

    QOTD: I enjoy a 16oz Ribeye Medium seasoned only with coarse sea salt and crushed black pepper. The steak should be seasoned a few hours before hitting the grill.

    QOTD:
    Medium rare strait off a good ol’ coal grill. And that last pairing seemed fantastic, I’m absolutely to have to try that this holiday.

    Darn! Always the bridesmaid.

    Love the idea of the Reisling with steak. I will seek out a late harvest and test it for myself.

    QOTD: filet or rib-eye medium rare with a brush of garlic butter.

    Medium rare (more rare then medium)

  • wtvLurker

    not surprised on the riesling/steak hit.
    a good semi-dry riesling is fabulous with a grilled hamburger.

    qotd – very hot grill, medium rare.

  • GV just got some bad news from your people last week when I tried to get that X-Mas pack something changed and you won’t ship to WI anymore, wish I could join in but I can’t this time. Happy Holidays to everyone.

    QOTD: Raw

  • I like my top sirloin, baseball cut, cooked rare and charred on the outside.

    BTW, the site that I get my business coaching from, By Referral Only (www.byreferralonly), the owner, Joe Stump, mentioned you in one of his blogs. I clicked on your link and have been hooked. Awsome show! Now I need to sell some real estate so I can get some wines!

    Thanks,

    QOTD: Medium-Rare.

    – Elliot K. (The Original CKC Representative) *Episode 225

  • QOTD: Medium-rare, preferably with a little charring action going on at the tips. Juicy and burnt!

    It was cool to see how you drink as opposed to taste. At first I thought you weren’t sniffing it, but now I see you get a good whiff right before you sip, and then one or two good sloshes right before you swallow.

    Gonna pick up a TANNAT tomorrow! I’m excited!
