I seem to recall Michael won't eat meat with even a hint of pink it it.

That's a shame. Some meats need to be thoroughly cooked. Some are a
better when a little pink side, and some are far better rare or medium
rare.  I prefer beef and lamb to be medium rare. IMO a steak cooked past
medium is a waste of good meat.

I can eat beef with a "hint" of pink, but that's about my limit.  It's a
mental block that I've struggled to get over.  I'm not much for red meat
either way, so when I eat beef, it's likely to be a pot roast or stew.
Jenni likes medium cooked steaks, but she usually makes those herself in
cast iron to her preference.

There you go generalizing again.  "Americans" like things cooked lots of

I wasn't talking about "meats." I was talking about pork. Americans up
to the boomers and beyond were taught that pork needed to be cooked
fully in order to make it safe from parasites. It's the reason why
people cook pork chops for 40 minutes or more. Rare pork was considered
to be unsafe.
When did you learn how to cook? Your lack of knowledge of the history
and traditions of foods in America is obvious. Do you even belong in a
food group?
