Personally, I like mine cooked Very Rare.... No knife needed.... The slight blood in the meat makes it much juicier. Only time you should need a knife on a beef patty is when you tick off the cook and say "Burn it!", otherwise most cooks who can pass the first grade can then usually cook it to where the fork can cut it nicely.... Bye bye! John * SeM. 2.26 * I develop... the others just play --- þ wcQWK 6.0 .
