I'm not just talking rare. I mean not cooked at all. From store to fridge to plate. My brother recently started doing this. He said he sucks at cooking meat, and then he started eating it raw but cooking a little bit of it if he didn't like it raw, but he always liked the raw meat more. So he just eats it raw now. It's always red meat.
Let me know when he starts eating pork tartare. :tongue_sm

The only raw meat that I'll eat is Carpaccio. Its paper thin slice of the beef tenderloin with herbs and sauces.

Many years ago a couple of my best buds had a roommate that would routinely grab himself a pinch of ground beef and eat it raw. Not freshly ground at home, mind you: we're talking poor college kids, so think WalMart meat, possibly marked down...
He never seemed to get sick from it.
Oh yeah, my point: since then, I've never had the urge. I suppose I should give some good carpaccio a try one day (and probably will), but I'm in no hurry.

Steak Tartare and Carpaccio, yes. Sitting down with a cold Rib Eye, No. How difficult is it to cook a steak?

Back where I'm from there was a tradition at partys or get togethers to bring "Tiger Meat" which is raw hamburger mixed with several spices, herbs, bread crumbs and so on. You scoop it up with saltine crackers and eat it with beer. I never cared for it much but there you go.
From a food safety point of view your brother should be ok provided he washes the outside well. Muscle meat is for all intents and purposes sealed so there aren't any food borne bacteria in it. Once it gets all cut up and mixed and turned into burger, that's when the problems start. Bacteria can be transferred to the beef by machinery, human contact, airborn and so on. I cannot imagine a raw rib eye tastes very good though. Weird.

Once made the mistake of ordering a rare Chop steak in a restaruant. My pride wouldn't allow me to admit mistake, so I ate it. I like my steaks really rare though. Only intended raw foods are oysters and sushi.

I wouldn't ever eat a meal of raw meat, but sometimes I like to have a New York Strip that is so rare that it is cold in the middle(still with a good char on the outside).
Campylobacter jejuni is the most commonly reported bacterial cause of foodborne infection in the United States. Adding to the human and economic costs are chronic sequelae associated with C. jejuni infection—Guillian-Barré syndrome and reactive arthritis. In addition, an increasing proportion of human infections caused by C. jejuni are resistant to antimicrobial therapy. Consumption of undercooked poultry is the major risk factors for human campylobacteriosis.

I think they call that style a "Pittsburgh" if I'm not mistaken.
I prefer medium rare myself, not into raw. Not in the mix.

What a weird post, I just had some raw buffalo (American Bison) last night. Not huge helping, but I think I'm still OK. I never can open a pack to cook with out a couple of big ol' mouthfuls of the raw stuff.
Hey, my main local(ish) man Eagle, I think tiger meat is the best!
BTW, the buffalo meat I get is from a friend of mine who runs a near by "bison ranch" (she gets very mad if you call it buffalo) and does all the slaughtering and processing "in house". I have no clue how buffalo and beef stack up risk wise (I do love the raw beef as well), but I'm in good health and have a strong immune system. Some people should never try this!

As a male college student, if you can't put a piece of meat in a pan and cook it, then there's something wrong. Nobody is asking you to make a 4-star dining experience but cooking your meat isn't too much to ask. And we're worried about our children not doing well in math and science! We have bigger issues. :frown:

College student with money for meat? Wow. That's a first. The closest I got to meat freshman year was "Beef" Ramen. It wasn't until I became I teacher, I could upgrade to Tuna in a can. :tongue::tongue:
Back on point, Raw meat? Ick. Like many others have stated, the risks.. the risks..
Now, Raw Fish? MmMMMmm. Sushi!!!!:wink:

At one time I traveled to Milwaukee often. One of the bars downtown had a raw meat sandwich with a slice of onion. Wash that puppy down with a beer and call it lunch.
The Four Seasons is famous for their steak tartare ($38 for an appetizer). If the raw meat isn't enough for you, it's held together with a raw egg yolk. :tongue_sm

Ha, reminds of that scene in Wall Street where Charlie Sheen and Michael Douglas are at lunch and the steak tartare arrives with a single quail egg yolk perfectly placed on the top.

I have enjoyed carpaccio on occasion, but it's not something I'll go out of my way for. A really good steak properly seasoned and cooked bleu is more pleasing in texture and of a finer flavour.
It's a matter of taste, I suppose.

No problem with the raw protein here. The Lebanese/Armenian side of my family has been eating kibbe -- raw spiced ground lamb or lamb and beef mixed -- for decades and no one has yet been stricken with illness. My father even managed to convince my then-young mother and her family (Irish with a capital shamrock) to eat the stuff. Though the baked version probably prevails in their hearts, raw kibbe has been a family staple since the first generation hit Ellis Island and likely well before that.
Sashimi, carpaccio, tartare, kibbe...unless it smells funky, go ahead and eat it!

And I really don't like sushi, either.
We have opposable thumbs, we can make fire, there's absolutely no excuse for eating anything raw......:confused::confused:
As for chicken.....the picture reminds me of once in the academy when they fed us chicken that was not quite as well done as those pictures....disgusting.
Obviously, the whole raw food experiment was built on a dare....you know, kind of like...I bet Mikey won't eat it..

I love that stuff. I ate it quite frequently growing up in Colombia. My Lebanese relatives made Kipe (Spanish name) for family reunions. They usually made a big batch of cooked kipe and a smaller of the raw for those of us daring enough to try it.

Crazy! I'm also of Lebanese/Irish* descent...I thought my brother and I were the only ones. :wink: I love it when the Lebanese relatives get together. Sure, they're a hell of a lot of fun to be around, but the food! That being said, I've been around my fair share of kibbe and I liken it (raw version) to :9898:.
Edit: I have to ask...is anyone in your family on the Lebanese side over 5'5" in height? :lol: I'm 5'6" and tower over everyone on my mom's side. :biggrin:

My brother! Finally, someone else who understand the difficulty of riding a camel while balancing a pint glass. Gotta love the Lebby food. Beats Irish cuisine which, as an Irish friend once said to me, is "any old shite you can throw in a pot." Then again, Guinness goes with everything.
My Dad and all others on the the Lebby side are all about 5'6 or less. My Mom is 5'2 but she's got a larger brother and and a couple of her uncles (from the family of 13) are classic big, burly Irishmen types. Me, I'm six feet and a big dude so my body-shape genes were shippped in direct from County Clare it seems.
Funny thing about the undercover last names: Everyone hears "Nahil" and assumes it's just like "Cahill", which would be Irish part. Nope. That's the Lebanese name and likely an Ellis-Island job, if family lore is to be believed.
Man, this string is making me hungry. Think I need to go visit my aunt next week and load up on kibbe, grape leaves, and real hummous.
Cheers,
Chris

As far as raw/uncooked beef, cappario is about the only time. I wouldn't eat raw ground meat. I do like my beef steaks rare/medium rare. Lamb and venison medium rare. Pork and chicken cooked done but still juicy. I like sushi, lox, raw oysters.
If you like a good rare/medium steak, get the butcher to cut a New York strip steak about 1-1/2 to 2 inches thick. Cook it about 3 min each side on a very hot grill or in a pan on high heat. Stick it in a hot oven (400) for about 10 min then add a little chicken stock or a little red and white wine and let it rest for 10 more min. Nice and seared on the outside and red and juicy on the inside.

well I was young and ignorant once . . . and now I'm old and well still learning. I was lucky enough to accompany a coworker and two cousins to theater here in Toronto. Well I'm not really an idiot but we found ourselves at Mövenpick. It is a very nice place but somehow everything seemed strange on the menu . . . but hey . . . I spotted the steak.
So I order after the three ladies . . . steak tartar garcon. . . s'il vous plait . . .
when they brought it over . . . well . . . after the ladies had been served . . . I was a bit unsure . . . looked a bit blue. . . well hell I ordered it so fire in. It was not bad and I think I convinced the coworker to take a bite . . .
Well this was an experience . . . I'll not forget it

When in Japan, I routinely eat the ubiquitous raw fish, ala sushi/sashimi.
But one time they served me up raw HORSE. Yup, as in "giddyup". I didn't find out what it was until after I ate it...
Tasted fine, but I wouldn't order it myself...:redface:
