I like how Gordon admits that making a well done steak well isn't actually easy and his right most chefs can't see past their arrogance and just burn it.
Yesss! A well done steak does not equal a burnt steak!! If a chef can’t cook a well done steak maintaining its flavor and juices then maybe they don’t know how too
I always order well done -I know blasphemy- but so many "chefs" take offense to it and give me a hockey puck. Like, dude I want you to cook it until the center turns brown, not black.
Ultimo D although I think well-done is the worst way to enjoy a steak (I love medium on most of my cuts) there are proper ways to cook a steak well done while retaining juiciness to it. If cooking meat well done was such an atrocity, I guess nobody would ever eat chicken. Well-done isn't synonymous to eating a fucking boot strap. You're right on this.
This is one of the reasons I love Chef Ramsay. He understands that in cooking a well done steak the different qualities of the meat will be lost to some degree but still understands that doesn't make them inherently bad. It really shows the lack of passion and skill a chef has when they throw a steak on the back burner at high heat and ruin it all because a person ordered it well done. Ramsay cares enough to give 110% on his dishes no matter what the request was and can make a proper well done steak because of it.
If you listen closely at the beginning of the video, you hear the narrator say that they were asked to cook steaks at 3 different temperatures, so it wasn't only a "well done" challenge. I assume that the challenge was to cook 1 steak rare, 1 steak medium, and 1 steak well done. If you want to be a chef, you have to know how to cook a steak properly at these 3 temperatures because it's not how you prefer the temperature of the steak, it's how the customer prefers it.
Asleep Osprey Seemingly yes, but even though most people don't like well done steak there is a way to cook the steak well done while still retaining as much flavor and moisture as possible. Most chefs just burn a steak and think that's what well done is, but that is not the correct way to make a well done steak.
+Asleep Osprey In that a well done steak is not very good regardless the care taken to cook it, yes. I'd say it's the most difficult steak to cook though. The goal with any steak is to cook it evenly throughout, while also giving it a nice sear. If you pull a steak from the fridge, slap it on a 450° grill, and just cook it to 160°, you'll end up with a steak that is cooked well done in only the very center, and dry as a bone on the outer portions. You really have to pull out all the stops to cook a well done steak because you're putting so much heat into it. You've got to bring it to room temperature first. This usually takes a couple hours, because it's the center of the steak that must come to room temp, not just the outside. Then to cook it, you do the regular stuff you might do. Searing it directly on hot coals for a minute or so on each side is my prefered first step if I'm not feeling lazy. You need as much heat as possible to sear the outside without cooking the interior. By the way, searing before cooking is not to "lock in the juices". That is a bs wive's tail. No, you sear it first because you can't get both a nice sear and cook the steak evenly if you use the same grill temp throughout the entire cook. You preferably want to cook the steak at a low temp. 350° max. I like 300°. This lower temp allows the center of the cut to come to temperature without overcooking the perimeter. So, the overall process is to 1) sear in hellfire. 2) set aside to rest so the heat can distribute throughout the cut while the grill temp comes down to 300-350°. 3) return to grill and cook to temp. I like to pull it at 127° to get a medium rare. If you want well done, pull it around 150-155° and then give it to the dog. Pulling a steak off the grill early is never a bad move. You can always cook it more.
+John Butch If someone ordered a well done steak, I'd plate an old boot sole and send it to them. Chances are they wouldn't be able to tell the difference. I've never intentionally cooked a steak well done, and I refuse to do so. If someone wants a well done steak, they can go find a cook who's willing to fuck up a perfectly good cut of meat. Of course, I'm not a professional chef, and have no desire to be one.
+Rednecksith5 Then you shouldn't work at a restaurant that serves red meat. The person is paying you for it, and whatever you like plays no part it in. If I'm paying an obscene amount of money to eat steak and I want it well done, you make it well done. You'll have to serve things you don't like too. The way I make my steak it is NOT like a old boot sole if I'm starting with a good cut of meat. Neither is it burned. I hate overcooked vegetables but some people love them that way so they can have it. So let me have my well done steak because I tried your holy medium rare more than once and I don't like it. Maybe that makes your palate superior and mine pedestrian but I can't help what I like. For me medium rare is a waste because it will not be eaten. As long as the person eats it, it isn't wasted. I don't understand why people get so insulted by how ANOTHER PERSON likes THEIR food which THEY pay for.
For the first three seasons of Masterchef, they were sponsored by Walmart, and almost every challenge had Walmart mentioned when it came to ingredients or protein.
Look at it just look at it. The way Gordon Ramsay talks about food shows his PASSION. The way that bald guy talks shows his arrogance and made-up personality.
I love how passionate Ramsey is about well done steaks in this vid. So ironic considering every single time a customer has complained about his he makes fun of them for ordering it in the first place.
come on be real, being a chef needs to take orders from the customers, just because you don't like steaks being well done, that can't stop people from ordering and most importantly being a chef has to cook what ever was ordered perfectly. this isn't a home cooked meal for yourself, this is a meal cooked for somebody who pays.
TheMeslava Stop being so fucking ignorant!! they are the ones that are paying, they are the ones that eat it.. THEN WHY THE FUCK DO YOU EVEN CARE ??? some people like sushi, some don't and same goes with well done steaks and medium rare for example, different tastes in food buddy .. that's why life is beautfiul
TheMeslava People pays for customer service and what they want, no body gives a shit about the chef's opinion. If every person is like that, there won't be no customer service no more..
First of all, when you state sushi, you gotta be more specific, and a medium rare steak is no where near as rare as the fish that are on sushi. A well done steak, is not a joke but the person ordering it is.
Dairius Grantling maybe the pressure got them unprepared and they couldn't think straight enough to cook it right. Maybe thats why they call it pressure test :p
Dairius Grantling you could also just baby it and flip it allot to bring a sear on it slowly so by the time the sear is nice the inside is cooked. I have gotten used to doing this because my GF doesn't like any pink in her steak.
TheMovement85 you are right but when you are cooking more stuff than a steak or two you don't have the time to flip it alot. I usually try to flip my steak every minute 'cause i like to be seared evenly at both sides.
You definitely can and it's not hard.I have cooked steaks like 4 times in my life and 3 of those times they were well done and tender.I could not believe it at first..
+Wentao Feng well yeah ones his prerogative and ones a technique, shut up you clown, just because its an insult doesnt mean it isnt an art, a steak cooked 1 min both sides isnt well-done, there is set standards, to call something an insult, thats an opinion, a great one in this case, who the fuck things eating a slab of meat which tastes like a car tyre is great? go back to sushi
The trick to making a good well done steak is having a medium heat pan when you start cooking and sear at the end. The medium heat will cook through and adjust heat to keep it moist but not pink. Sear at the end for a good crust and it will seal any juices assuming you used a marinade instead of a dry rub
Searing doesn't seal in anything, it actually squeezes the juices out. This is just the myth that won't die, but it's been known since the early 1900s in food science that this is incorrect. The real reason we sear steaks is because the Maillard reaction that occurs when forming a crust adds flavor to the steak.
Best way to cook a weldone steak is to slow cook it. otherwise forget it you will just burn the damn thing. Slow cooking it means the middle is still juicy and its not chewy like rubber. Its actually pretty simple really but just takes patience because it take longer than a medium rare, or rare or even medium well.
No, if someone orders well done, you seer it and microwave it, they won't know the difference because they are used to chew chew chew, if they see no pink they will be happy, fucking idiots. Not you, just the people that order red meat well done. No one will wait 30-40 minutes for a thick cut steak to be cooked well done properly, no one should be going to a place where they serve good meat and ask for well done either, that's an atrocity. Red meat is red meat no matter how dark you cook it. I know no one that would prefer a well done taste over a medium rare taste either, it's incomprehensible.
This is why you're not a chef. A chef brings their A-Game regardless of personal feeling. You dislike well-done? Fine. Don't take it out on the customer. Do it right, or don't bother.
***** I'm not a chef, I have cooked in several restaurants but that was then. Cooking any meat well done in practice is idiotic, there is no viable point. Red meat is still red meat whether it's burnt or bloody. If the customer want's well done fine,. give it to them, but a chef should inform them before serving them a shit steak as no well-done can compare in flavor or taste or texture to anything else beneath that. It's plain and simple. If you had a girlfriend/boyfriend that asked for Diesel gas/petrol when filling up their Honda Civic would you do so without informing them or asking them why?
Jack Poontaint Your ignorance is astounding. I would fire you immediately from my restaurant. It's not up to you what the customer thinks tastes good. Many people like and prefer well or well done. If you can't do it properly without whining and name calling then you're a bad employee regardless of field. And your comparison to cars was terrible, because humans are quite capable and do just fine eating fully cooked meat.
Well a well done stake should be brown in the middel and still have color on the outside. Most chefs cook it untill the inside is gray and the outside is black. There's a difference between well done and burt to a chrisp, but then again IDK I always order my stakes medium.
@@josephmayer8880 If a cook don't know how to make GOOD well done steak, you ain't doing it right, or it's past well done. It takes more care to preserve the "flavor", but that's it.
@@pronewun5832 a good chef can master rare, medium rare, well done and everything in between. If you want to own a restaurant, you give your customers what they want to pay for. Some want to pay for well done, and a good chef will know how to cook all of his steaks so that no matter the doneness, they'll all taste amazing.
Well done, for the most part, IS burning it to a crisp. It's tough and leathery. There's a good reason why some restaurants won't allow well done steaks.
If someone wants a well done steak you cook them a fucking well done steak. They are paying for it. What if i told you that different people have different tastes in food.
There should just be a sign outside the restaurants that says: we refuse to cook steak medium or above, because we don't know how. I know a few high end restaurants that can cook a superb well done steak. It's the mediocre steak house that has problem producing good well done steaks so they criticize those that want anything medium above. Sheep follows, as simple as that.
terry bigMango When you cook a steak well done, all quality of the beef is lost. Ramsay himself said that. You can enjoy a well done steak all you want. That's your right. But people can still think its ridiculous. That's their right.
You obviously never had properly cooked well done steak. I enjoy a steak that is well done just as much in rare; when it's done properly. You care too much how others think...
terry bigMango Then you will be a very sad (and broke) restaurant owner if you put up a sign saying "eat the food exactly the way I want to cook it or get out."
Majority of the well established restaurants have signature dishes. Customers are drawn to a restaurant for what they are known for, not what you come up with on top of your mind.
"It's an art to cooking a well-done steak" There is a thin line between burned meat and well done, and most of steak eater consider that burned meat as well done. That's a sin
People look at me like I should be locked up in an asylum when I tell them I like it well done. There's folks out there who are genuinely bothered by how people like their steak cooked.
Hardest steak to make and not taste bad is ironically enough well done steak. The common perception of well done steak of being dry and chewy simply comes from the fact that its the hardest steak to make and mere seconds make the difference between it becoming dry and still retaining a good amount of juice. I have eaten great well done steaks and they were some of the most flavourful steaks I had. Not dry, not chewy, actually even superior bite to medium rare steaks. Similar to al dente pasta. But its just the hardest steak to make consistently and not screw it up.
No... This is not true. More juice loss occurs in well done regardless of how it's cooked. It's been studied.. you can see this side by side in any cooking method
@@Robert-xk9no "more" is a very broad and undefined description. I literally have cooked steak MYSELF that was well done and juices dripping out of every bite. The key here is time and patience. But I guess your super smart study just refuted actual reality, because some paper said so lol
@@HandsomeMax33 I'm saying if you cooked that same steak medium rare the juice losses would be more on the well done. Without a side by side you would have no way of knowing the difference between juice loss. It's science
@@HandsomeMax33 Your refutation was literally "I had a juicy well done steak" which doesn't clash with any assertion I made. The assertion is that more juice loss occurs in well done vs medium rare.
I have never been to a decent restaurant that would cook well done steak. They would say medium is the max temp. I genuinely thought this was a trick question type test.
AllstateIts Inyourhands There are always other restaurants. One customer here or there gone is not a huge loss to restaurant if it does well. No good restaurant has gone bankrupt because they don't do well done steaks.
Remember that time Gordon got given a picture of a black burnt steak from his restaurant. His words were “when you order it well done it’s gone past any point if flavour it had” It seems he just couldn’t take criticism. What a shock.
I like steak regardless if its rare or well done. I used to have two pieces of steak cooked differently on the same plate along with some mashed potatoes and the combination of flavors and texture was to my liking so much, It was pretty much what I ate every weekend. Ah, those were good times. I rarely eat steak anymore. Had to break the habit, haha.
as gordon said, cooking well done is an art, in wich the quality and cut of the meat are fundamental.... but it can be nice, and sometimes it is absolutly necesary.... anyway, those steaks look amazing!!!
+Gaming with Mikey! well done steaks all together are no were near as good as rare or medium, but a well done can still be... ok... but a welldone steak can never be "amazing" as steak isent made to be cooked well done, as its one peice of meat, your able (and need to) cook ground beef all the way through though, and ever tasted ground beef, fully cooked, with no seasonings? its super bland and not great, imagine a steak then
Gordon literally says on kitchen nightmares that well done steak is the easiest to make but in master chef he says the well done steak is feared by professional chefs 😂
I love a well done steak. I have eaten steak that was pink in the middle but I didn't like it. It tasted odd to me and I remember cutting into one and it literally had blood dripping from inside. That just made me not want to eat my steaks with pink in it. I know it depends on who cooks the steak but that's just how I like mine.
Most people like well done steak because they are ignorant about food borne illnesses. If you like your steak well done, that's fine but when you start to belittle others because you claim that people who eat medium rare steak are going to get sick, that is where I draw the line.
@@pootis9180 Eh not really, look through the comments of any steak video when someone cooks it Medium Rare. You will definitely see people going, "Well done GANG!" or something like "Cook it a bit more."
my preference for entertainment is killing people and desecrating the corpse through sexual acts, necrophilia if you will, hope you're not judging me for my preferences. Honestly though it's a respect thing for the whole process of getting that steak from a baby cow (calf) to your plate, there is a right way to do a well done steak but even then it takes most if not all of the flavor away, I don't much care how my steak is made (I usually tell the waitress to have the chef make it their preferred way.) but I do understand why people get picky about this, it is a long process to raise that cow and get the meat as good as possible and then to get the right cut and finally on the chef to make sure all of the flavor comes out of it, but when you take away all the juices by overcooking it, all those natural flavors go away, so it's like a punch in the gut for most chefs. Just my take on it, enjoy your steak your way.
@@drkcorner jesus stfu with ur pretentious af respect for the animal it fuking dies to land on my plate as however the fuck i see fit now piss off in to the forest u little elf princess
@@miceatah9359 You don't read often, do you? The way you raise a cow HEAVILY effects how tender the meat is, how healthy the cow is and how flavorful the steak is. If you get a steak from walmart, it's going to be chock full of e coli and have zero vitamin E, which is what prevents meat from going bad quickly.
A lot of people don't like Well Done steak for a reason. They try cooking and it is burnt. Cooking a Well Done steak requires a lot of skill. That is why when you make a Steak at home is is chewy. Where if you order it at a Restaurant it is nice and soft and has the inside texture you want.
Steak is literally the only food I can think of that people seem to judge others on who like it differently. People have this idiotic assumption that you HAVE to like it rare or medium rare. I buy good steaks and cook it the way I like it which is well done ( at times I will eat it when it’s just a little pink) and to the others who like well done steak don’t order from a restaurant, it’s really best to buy and cook it yourself, that way you know how it turns out. Some like steak in different ways, no need to judge others for their preferences but sadly some chefs think that they will “ruin” the steak if you ask for well done, so that in my opinion is stupid, people can’t help what they like.
I could tell they were not well done just by when gordon touched them. I have been cooking perfect steaks for a long time now, and I have been using Gordon's method by touching them. However, both of them guys cooked the steaks perfectly, beautiful sear and pink in the middle, just the way I like it. but this is a Well Done challenge, and a chef must know how to cook a steak at any and all temperatures.
It's simple when the juices run clear it's well-done And you stop cooking. My grandmother taught me that. She said don't turn it over till the juices rise up then turn it over and wait for the juices to rise and keep at it till it's clear. Now of course you have to have your pan at the right temperature. And if I cooked it the way my mom does it then it's a high temperature on both sides for color and then turn it down and put a lid on it but keep an eye on the juices to know when to flip.
not really. on one he complimented the sear on it (outermost edge). on the other he was complimenting the seasoning put onto the steak. Big difference.
@@taiwandxt6493 Oh my God, thank you so much. Everybody else who enjoys medium rare is being a prick about it. So I applaud you for not shoving it in our faces. (Not being sarcastic btw, actually thank you.)
@@Deathwindgames I disagree. Sure I've seen dozens of people (on this video alone) saying well done is there preference, or even well done is the best. But I've seen even more people saying "If you eat anything other then medium rare, you're stupid", or have used the word " Retarded ". Which is taking it way to far. Sure, I admit us well done steak eaters could keep our opinions to ourselves. But at least we don't use derogatory terms to describe our dislike for something as simple as steak.
I like my steak well done, also. at expensive restaurants with top of the line ingredients, they should be able to produce a well done steak that isn't dry and burnt.
Im from Portugal and hardly anyone orders medium done steaks, its all well done and the meat is mnever burnt unless youre at a shitty restaurant. Ive noticed that everyone who gets mad at well done steaks are american. Go figure. People from the most retarded country in the world get mad over how people enjoy their food lmao
@@unhinchamas7527 Yeah same for me. I always think of parasites and most cows today have boils and cysts so it's best to kill all that bacteria with cooking it well done.
Gordon Ramsay 2012: ‘whatever quality of beef it is, by the time you’ve cooked it well done it’s gone past any form of flavour’ Gordon Ramsay 2013: ‘there’s an art to cooking a well done steak’
I like my Steaks medium rare and you will find most chefs prefer medium rare as well. The benefits to cooking medium-rare steaks are numerous. The temperature of a medium-rare steak is just hot enough to allow the marbling, or fat, to melt into the meat and distribute flavor and juiciness. Cook a steak less than medium-rare and the fat doesn’t have the same opportunity to distribute; not to mention you will be eating cold squishy beef. Now when I try to cook steak well-done it's most likely going to turn out tough, but I know a handful of Steak Masters/Chefs that have mastered this. They turn out well done that still retain moisture inside, but again it leans to the tougher side. Well done isn't burnt like most would have you believe. A burnt steak is exactly that, a burnt steak. a well done steak It's just past pink and only a talented Chef can do this. The people that say put it on and leave it are idiots. You are actually going past well done mark. It takes a Steak Master to cook steak well done and still keep it from shoe-leather consistency. I can cook Blue, Rare, Medium Rare and Medium all day, but cooking well-done steak and retaining juice is an art that I haven't mastered. So out of moms basement you see these so-called Chefs that are quick to put down Well done steaks because they don't know how to cook them. So do your thing and cook it the way you know how, but don't put down someone because your talent level is zero.
I always make mine well done to medium well. Very juicy, no pink,. I season it with garlic powder, sea salt and Worc sauce both sides. I cook it at low in my grill, 400F, 10 minutes then flip in another 9 minutes. Perfect Well done. If your steak looks burn, you ruined it. The well done steak is by far the bardest to cook, but the taste if you do it right is amazing and you can taste that buttery like flavor. I use ribeyes
So it's true. There are others like me that understand the true art of well done steak and how amazing it can truly be. People will always hate, and it is most likely the same people who prefer mustangs over corvettes, or those who have never received a well done stake that wasn't over cooked to a "hockey puck".
Seriously though they were incompetent for even THINKING these steaks were well done. I'm not an expert, and I'm not claiming to know how to cook a perfect well done steak, but I am pointing out the absolute fact that you can SEE THAT THE MIDDLE OF THE STEAK IS STILL PINK EVEN BEFORE CUTTING INTO IT. How the HELL could anyone even begin to consider that the steak must be "well done" when the OUTSIDE of the steak is still pink? Complete madness.
The point isnt well done steaks being good or bad, the point of this was that a chef should be able to cook a steak how ever he is asked to cook it. Even if well done ruins all the tastes that come with the blood and completely destroys tll the tenderness and makes them chewy as all hell, you have to be able to cook a steak well done. or any kind of steak for that matter.

Everyone's a fucking head chef in the comment section
Not a fucking head chef but if you don't know how a steak should be eaten and more or less how to cook it as such, you should return your man card.
true never made any type of steak but if you use right ingredients any meat can taste nice its all in them chemicals you use
LaughAs I am a head chef
LaughAs it doesn't take a head chef to cook a well done steak.. you could tell it was medium before he even cut the meat how pink the sides were

I love how passionate Ramsey is about well done steaks in this vid. So ironic considering every single time a customer has complained about his he makes fun of them for ordering it in the first place.
Never thought I'd see THIS on cooking television.
Gordon Ramsay feels like the kind of person who would never have had well-done anything in his life.
come on be real, being a chef needs to take orders from the customers, just because you don't like steaks being well done, that can't stop people from ordering and most importantly being a chef has to cook what ever was ordered perfectly. this isn't a home cooked meal for yourself, this is a meal cooked for somebody who pays.
People who pay shouldn't be so fucking stupid and order a REAL steak. Well done is a joke.
TheMeslava Stop being so fucking ignorant!! they are the ones that are paying, they are the ones that eat it.. THEN WHY THE FUCK DO YOU EVEN CARE ??? some people like sushi, some don't and same goes with well done steaks and medium rare for example, different tastes in food buddy .. that's why life is beautfiul
Fyer Well said!
TheMeslava People pays for customer service and what they want, no body gives a shit about the chef's opinion. If every person is like that, there won't be no customer service no more..
First of all, when you state sushi, you gotta be more specific, and a medium rare steak is no where near as rare as the fish that are on sushi. A well done steak, is not a joke but the person ordering it is.
The way to cook a well done steak is to cook it low at first till the inside is done then in high to sear the outside
Dairius Grantling Well said!
I wonder how the chefs didn't know that
Dairius Grantling maybe the pressure got them unprepared and they couldn't think straight enough to cook it right. Maybe thats why they call it pressure test :p
Dairius Grantling you could also just baby it and flip it allot to bring a sear on it slowly so by the time the sear is nice the inside is cooked. I have gotten used to doing this because my GF doesn't like any pink in her steak.
TheMovement85 you are right but when you are cooking more stuff than a steak or two you don't have the time to flip it alot. I usually try to flip my steak every minute 'cause i like to be seared evenly at both sides.
I used to only eat well-done streak, people used to give me weird looks. I've always said if the chef is good you can make A well-done steak juicy.
You definitely can and it's not hard.I have cooked steaks like 4 times in my life and 3 of those times they were well done and tender.I could not believe it at first..
Same here, i have been served juicy well done steaks before
You’re a moron
No, you idiots had medium well that was rested well. Well done is completely cooked causing the meat to become spongy and reabsorb the juice.
@@YOKID37 You can have a juicy well done steak, but you have to baby it just right without Overhandling it. I've done it, and it's worth it.
So now Gordon says there is art in cooking well-done steak...I heard he said that well-done is an insult to any qualities of meat...
+Wentao Feng well yeah ones his prerogative and ones a technique, shut up you clown, just because its an insult doesnt mean it isnt an art, a steak cooked 1 min both sides isnt well-done, there is set standards, to call something an insult, thats an opinion, a great one in this case, who the fuck things eating a slab of meat which tastes like a car tyre is great? go back to sushi
James Wood Alright, then its my fault for not knowing the insult and art can literally mean the same thing....I will be quite
The steak is from Walmat...may not even be meat.
Chrls Stotz alright deadmau5 sorry
James Wood I was kidding, I'M sorry
The trick to making a good well done steak is having a medium heat pan when you start cooking and sear at the end. The medium heat will cook through and adjust heat to keep it moist but not pink. Sear at the end for a good crust and it will seal any juices assuming you used a marinade instead of a dry rub
Searing doesn't seal in anything, it actually squeezes the juices out. This is just the myth that won't die, but it's been known since the early 1900s in food science that this is incorrect. The real reason we sear steaks is because the Maillard reaction that occurs when forming a crust adds flavor to the steak.
I'm just glad someone else is out here representing for the well done steaks.
Rest in peace, Josh :(..

Best way to cook a weldone steak is to slow cook it. otherwise forget it you will just burn the damn thing. Slow cooking it means the middle is still juicy and its not chewy like rubber. Its actually pretty simple really but just takes patience because it take longer than a medium rare, or rare or even medium well.
No, if someone orders well done, you seer it and microwave it, they won't know the difference because they are used to chew chew chew, if they see no pink they will be happy, fucking idiots. Not you, just the people that order red meat well done. No one will wait 30-40 minutes for a thick cut steak to be cooked well done properly, no one should be going to a place where they serve good meat and ask for well done either, that's an atrocity. Red meat is red meat no matter how dark you cook it. I know no one that would prefer a well done taste over a medium rare taste either, it's incomprehensible.
This is why you're not a chef. A chef brings their A-Game regardless of personal feeling. You dislike well-done? Fine. Don't take it out on the customer.
Do it right, or don't bother.
*****
I'm not a chef, I have cooked in several restaurants but that was then. Cooking any meat well done in practice is idiotic, there is no viable point. Red meat is still red meat whether it's burnt or bloody. If the customer want's well done fine,. give it to them, but a chef should inform them before serving them a shit steak as no well-done can compare in flavor or taste or texture to anything else beneath that. It's plain and simple.
If you had a girlfriend/boyfriend that asked for Diesel gas/petrol when filling up their Honda Civic would you do so without informing them or asking them why?
Jack Poontaint Your ignorance is astounding. I would fire you immediately from my restaurant.
It's not up to you what the customer thinks tastes good. Many people like and prefer well or well done. If you can't do it properly without whining and name calling then you're a bad employee regardless of field.
And your comparison to cars was terrible, because humans are quite capable and do just fine eating fully cooked meat.
" it take longer than a medium rare, or rare or even medium well."
Duh?
The first steak didn't meet the requirements but man it looked so good. That's exactly how I'd want my steak cooked, none of that rare stuff
After a viral video of Ramsay shitting on well done steaks, he goes on saying "there's an art in cooking a well done steak" lol
Well a well done stake should be brown in the middel and still have color on the outside. Most chefs cook it untill the inside is gray and the outside is black. There's a difference between well done and burt to a chrisp, but then again IDK I always order my stakes medium.

Not many people realize that a well done steak can taste great if you know how to cook it..."burning it into a crisp" just sounds ignorant.
If you know how to cook steak, you don't cook it "well done".
@@pronewun5832 a good chef can master rare, medium rare, well done and everything in between. If you want to own a restaurant, you give your customers what they want to pay for. Some want to pay for well done, and a good chef will know how to cook all of his steaks so that no matter the doneness, they'll all taste amazing.
Well done, for the most part, IS burning it to a crisp. It's tough and leathery. There's a good reason why some restaurants won't allow well done steaks.
TheGrandOptimist - Two words, dude: "Meat tenderizer".
@@TheGrandOptimist95 if is burned then is not well done, a proper well done steak is both not pink but still juicy
In Australia we get well done steaks all the time. Never pink, never dry, never burned.
I’m never going to America.
If someone wants a well done steak you cook them a fucking well done steak. They are paying for it. What if i told you that different people have different tastes in food.
There should just be a sign outside the restaurants that says: we refuse to cook steak medium or above, because we don't know how. I know a few high end restaurants that can cook a superb well done steak. It's the mediocre steak house that has problem producing good well done steaks so they criticize those that want anything medium above. Sheep follows, as simple as that.
terry bigMango
When you cook a steak well done, all quality of the beef is lost.
Ramsay himself said that.
You can enjoy a well done steak all you want. That's your right. But people can still think its ridiculous. That's their right.
You obviously never had properly cooked well done steak. I enjoy a steak that is well done just as much in rare; when it's done properly. You care too much how others think...
terry bigMango Then you will be a very sad (and broke) restaurant owner if you put up a sign saying "eat the food exactly the way I want to cook it or get out."
Majority of the well established restaurants have signature dishes. Customers are drawn to a restaurant for what they are known for, not what you come up with on top of your mind.
"It's an art to cooking a well-done steak"

@@mountainman8436 Thats nice to hear
When the title said "well done" i thought it meant they did good
Hardest steak to make and not taste bad is ironically enough well done steak. The common perception of well done steak of being dry and chewy simply comes from the fact that its the hardest steak to make and mere seconds make the difference between it becoming dry and still retaining a good amount of juice. I have eaten great well done steaks and they were some of the most flavourful steaks I had. Not dry, not chewy, actually even superior bite to medium rare steaks. Similar to al dente pasta. But its just the hardest steak to make consistently and not screw it up.
The key is basting.
No... This is not true.
More juice loss occurs in well done regardless of how it's cooked.
It's been studied.. you can see this side by side in any cooking method
@@Robert-xk9no "more" is a very broad and undefined description. I literally have cooked steak MYSELF that was well done and juices dripping out of every bite. The key here is time and patience. But I guess your super smart study just refuted actual reality, because some paper said so lol
@@HandsomeMax33 I'm saying if you cooked that same steak medium rare the juice losses would be more on the well done.
Without a side by side you would have no way of knowing the difference between juice loss.

@@HandsomeMax33 Your refutation was literally "I had a juicy well done steak" which doesn't clash with any assertion I made.
The assertion is that more juice loss occurs in well done vs medium rare.

There are always other restaurants. One customer here or there gone is not a huge loss to restaurant if it does well. No good restaurant has gone bankrupt because they don't do well done steaks.
Remember that time Gordon got given a picture of a black burnt steak from his restaurant. His words were “when you order it well done it’s gone past any point if flavour it had”
It seems he just couldn’t take criticism.
What a shock.
You're absolutely correct, considering that he knows what a good well done steak should be like

I like steak regardless if its rare or well done. I used to have two pieces of steak cooked differently on the same plate along with some mashed potatoes and the combination of flavors and texture was to my liking so much, It was pretty much what I ate every weekend.
Ah, those were good times. I rarely eat steak anymore. Had to break the habit, haha.
The only steak I eat is well done, particularly when my father cooks it. And you know what? It's freaking delicious.
This is probably why when I ask for a steak well done there’s still so many streaks of red in the meat...
as gordon said, cooking well done is an art, in wich the quality and cut of the meat are fundamental.... but it can be nice, and sometimes it is absolutly necesary.... anyway, those steaks look amazing!!!
Wait, Why is this a challenge? Didn't a video go viral of Gordon saying well done is a ruined steak?
some well done steaks can still be juicy and knidve good
+Gaming with Mikey! it's what the customer wants, making a good well done vs a bad well done is readily apparent.

***** yeah like it was a "trick" question or something lol
Gordon literally says on kitchen nightmares that well done steak is the easiest to make but in master chef he says the well done steak is feared by professional chefs 😂
I love a well done steak. I have eaten steak that was pink in the middle but I didn't like it. It tasted odd to me and I remember cutting into one and it literally had blood dripping from inside. That just made me not want to eat my steaks with pink in it. I know it depends on who cooks the steak but that's just how I like mine.
RockingAnimeFan235 It's not blood. You probably just don't really like the taste of beef.
Duspende Then why the fuck did he say he loves a well done steak.
It's not blood! It's the juice, or as many people would call it: the good part.

Reading about someone judging other people's preferences is painful.
my preference for entertainment is killing people and desecrating the corpse through sexual acts, necrophilia if you will, hope you're not judging me for my preferences. Honestly though it's a respect thing for the whole process of getting that steak from a baby cow (calf) to your plate, there is a right way to do a well done steak but even then it takes most if not all of the flavor away, I don't much care how my steak is made (I usually tell the waitress to have the chef make it their preferred way.) but I do understand why people get picky about this, it is a long process to raise that cow and get the meat as good as possible and then to get the right cut and finally on the chef to make sure all of the flavor comes out of it, but when you take away all the juices by overcooking it, all those natural flavors go away, so it's like a punch in the gut for most chefs. Just my take on it, enjoy your steak your way.

@@miceatah9359 You don't read often, do you? The way you raise a cow HEAVILY effects how tender the meat is, how healthy the cow is and how flavorful the steak is.

A lot of people don't like Well Done steak for a reason. They try cooking and it is burnt. Cooking a Well Done steak requires a lot of skill. That is why when you make a Steak at home is is chewy. Where if you order it at a Restaurant it is nice and soft and has the inside texture you want.

Steak is literally the only food I can think of that people seem to judge others on who like it differently. People have this idiotic assumption that you HAVE to like it rare or medium rare. I buy good steaks and cook it the way I like it which is well done ( at times I will eat it when it’s just a little pink) and to the others who like well done steak don’t order from a restaurant, it’s really best to buy and cook it yourself, that way you know how it turns out. Some like steak in different ways, no need to judge others for their preferences but sadly some chefs think that they will “ruin” the steak if you ask for well done, so that in my opinion is stupid, people can’t help what they like.
Exactly this. I've never seen this level of gate keeping with any other food.
when you watch a video and their challenge of a well-done walmart steak has been your reality for years.
Those walmart steaks are great idk what youre talking about
I could tell they were not well done just by when gordon touched them. I have been cooking perfect steaks for a long time now, and I have been using Gordon's method by touching them. However, both of them guys cooked the steaks perfectly, beautiful sear and pink in the middle, just the way I like it. but this is a Well Done challenge, and a chef must know how to cook a steak at any and all temperatures.

To be honest I didn’t know Ramsay knew what a well done steak is
Med rare
It's simple when the juices run clear it's well-done And you stop cooking. My grandmother taught me that. She said don't turn it over till the juices rise up then turn it over and wait for the juices to rise and keep at it till it's clear. Now of course you have to have your pan at the right temperature. And if I cooked it the way my mom does it then it's a high temperature on both sides for color and then turn it down and put a lid on it but keep an eye on the juices to know when to flip.
Whats this? My opinion slightly differs from yours on a trivial matter!? Oh!! The horror!
I’m gay af
Put me on this show every steak I cook is well done.
I knew straight away that the steak where not well done! I'm shocked that they even messed that up!
I love how Gordon’s is straight up roasting people who love well-done steaks.

when you're a vegetarian and you can cook steak to well done perfectly 😂
They should be politely, but firmly, asked to leave.
I like my Steaks medium rare and you will find most chefs prefer medium rare as well. The benefits to cooking medium-rare steaks are numerous. The temperature of a medium-rare steak is just hot enough to allow the marbling, or fat, to melt into the meat and distribute flavor and juiciness. Cook a steak less than medium-rare and the fat doesn’t have the same opportunity to distribute; not to mention you will be eating cold squishy beef. Now when I try to cook steak well-done it's most likely going to turn out tough, but I know a handful of Steak Masters/Chefs that have mastered this. They turn out well done that still retain moisture inside, but again it leans to the tougher side. Well done isn't burnt like most would have you believe. A burnt steak is exactly that, a burnt steak. a well done steak It's just past pink and only a talented Chef can do this. The people that say put it on and leave it are idiots. You are actually going past well done mark. It takes a Steak Master to cook steak well done and still keep it from shoe-leather consistency. I can cook Blue, Rare, Medium Rare and Medium all day, but cooking well-done steak and retaining juice is an art that I haven't mastered. So out of moms basement you see these so-called Chefs that are quick to put down Well done steaks because they don't know how to cook them. So do your thing and cook it the way you know how, but don't put down someone because your talent level is zero.
Finally someone gets it
I always make mine well done to medium well. Very juicy, no pink,. I season it with garlic powder, sea salt and Worc sauce both sides. I cook it at low in my grill, 400F, 10 minutes then flip in another 9 minutes. Perfect Well done. If your steak looks burn, you ruined it. The well done steak is by far the bardest to cook, but the taste if you do it right is amazing and you can taste that buttery like flavor. I use ribeyes
I need to buy some steaks so you can show me how to make them.
@@nelzelpher7158 he literally said how to cook it

Seriously though they were incompetent for even THINKING these steaks were well done. I'm not an expert, and I'm not claiming to know how to cook a perfect well done steak, but I am pointing out the absolute fact that you can SEE THAT THE MIDDLE OF THE STEAK IS STILL PINK EVEN BEFORE CUTTING INTO IT. How the HELL could anyone even begin to consider that the steak must be "well done" when the OUTSIDE of the steak is still pink? Complete madness.
The point isnt well done steaks being good or bad, the point of this was that a chef should be able to cook a steak how ever he is asked to cook it. Even if well done ruins all the tastes that come with the blood and completely destroys tll the tenderness and makes them chewy as all hell, you have to be able to cook a steak well done. or any kind of steak for that matter.
we all know whether its rare or well done...
*The Vegans are still gonna hate it.*
I would not even have the psyche to make a well done steak.
Well done=best
