Medium rare steak

Hey,

I cooked flank steak at home tonight. I got it at a reputable butcher and aimed for medium. It was a little more medium rare in the middle. But I ate the more cooked end piece. Am I horrible?

Re: Medium rare steak

  • I ate medium rare steak in moderation during my whole first pregnancy - she came out with ten fingers and ten toes and is pretty damn smart if I don't say so myself ;) you're fine.

  • Thank you. Crazy nervous first timer over here
  • You're fine. As long as you trust the source and it was handled properly, medium rare is definitely acceptable.

  • I eat nothing other than medium rare to rare steak. :) My DS turned out fine. I just didn't eat it all the time.

  • Don't feel bad.  I love a good med rare steak and like you was nervous during my 1st pregnancy with DS. So I actually asked the Dr. before I ate one.  He said it was absolutely fine!  :)
  • I too am a rare steak eater - and did so with all 3 previous pregnancies. :)
