Medium rare (50% cooked meat)

Medium rare is considered the most perfect ripeness for steak buffs. Because this doneness balances the outside of the meat being crispy and the inside just barely cooked, the bright red in the middle is lighter and the pink part more pink. To achieve this level of meat, it takes 3 to 4 minutes per side, evenly timed at 57 to 63 degrees Celsius.

Medium-well (90% cooked meat)

The meat is grilled for more than 5 minutes on each side at a temperature of 72 to 77 degrees Celsius, so the meat is cooked gradually, the inside is only a little pink, the outside has turned to an attractive brownish-gray color. For those who are not used to eating raw food, this is the level of maturity to choose.

Well medium is more ripe than medium.

Welldone (100% cooked meat)

The meat is fully cooked with 6 minutes of baking. If you like the level of Welldone cooking, you must have a very high technique so that the grilled meat is not chewy, still retains the juiciness as well as the tenderness of the meat. However, steak lovers often do not choose this ripeness because according to them this degree of ripeness makes the meat somewhat lose its deliciousness.
