Anyone go below rare on steak (raw or black and blue)?

This depends on what you eat typically. Your body will change stomach enzymes based off your typical diet.

Ever have a diet consist of mainly protein then switch to carbohydrates and get bloated etc? It’s because your body changed it’s enzymes to mainly break protein down and didn’t have what it needed when you immediately switched to carbs.

Eat more raw foods and the enzyme structure will change.
Noted, thanks for the info!
 
I eat mine as blue as blue gets. There was a couple times I have been to lazy to cook and pulled it out of the fridge and ate it raw. Never had an issue been eating blue forever.
 
I love rare steak if it’s quality. I eat (raw)steak tartare and beef carpaccio at high end steakhouses and its sooo good. That being said, I don’t recommend doing any of that with any Walmart/grocery store stuff because of the cutting machines and contamination. A good steak on a infrared hot sear-station is the best. They have them on a lot of the new grills(1200 degrees) sear for 1 to 1.5 minutes on each side, let rest for 5 minutes and slice.
 
Yeah steak tartare is not only 100% raw but it's also served cold. Freaking delicious.

I've been on a huge ribeye kick eating at least 10 a week. Always cooked what I would consider medium-rare but what other people would call rare. Heat the salt block in the oven up to 500 Degrees put on 5 minutes each side. Delicious.

I like to buy chuck roast and beef brisket and grind myself(50/50mix) into burger and grill me a rare burger. Just kosher salt, ground pepper, a bit of olive oil and fresh garlic. Put it in a fresh bakery bun. The best beef flavor hands down.
 
What do you use to grind the meat?

I have an attachment for my Kitchen aid mixer. They also sell them cheap at Bass Pro or online. Also if you have a butcher(like @publix or Safeway. You can call in and have them grind it for you and put them in 1lb packs for you. P.S. always tell them to keep the fat on the brisket otherwise it’s super lean. (which is fine but I like my animal fats)
 
No frigin way I would trust anything below medium anywhere. So much e-coli and shit happening, I think just recently they had to dispose of like 11 million pounds of ground beef cause of that shit. That’s a lot of cows! And even especially more now with the gov shutdown, FDA inspections are not happening, or at least they are not really giving a fuck right now. Only thing I could ever do raw were clams, but na, not anymore ither.
You never hear of STEAK with e coli. It's not ground up with possible intestine parts like ground beef. You're saying ground beef which isnt steak(muscle). No shit in muscle....
