Arrogant Chefs Cooking Steaks Well Done

So my friend was reading conversations on the internet, and said surprisingly, a lot of chefs get angry at people ordering steak well done, saying it tastes like "leather" and reacting in ludicrous ways. I never experienced this and always order it well done.

well done is retarded. Tastes like leather. The chefs in a lot of places go out of their way picking a choosing nice cuts and really good veggies as their rep is on the line then some jag off order it in a fashion that might as well have all the flavor and tenderness drained from it. The chef might as well picked out prison meat for the well done customers.

I'm a chef, I can vouch for the bitching. There are cuts of meat that are perfectly acceptable as well done, but generally your eating leather.
Plus it takes forever to get to well and it fucks up my bill time.

your bill time?
it's the customer's steak, he's being billed for the steak he ordered, just because everyone else payed the price for the well done steak to be cooked rare doesnt mean you can bitch because someone wanted you to actually work for once

Steak is one of those things I rarely order at restaurants because it's so easy to do right at home. If you've tried steak all different ways, order it how you like, but it's hard to understand how a tenderloin, for example, would be as good well done. It's like merlot on ice.

I know you're playing devil's advocate pris, but you strike me as the "cut off its horns, wipe its ass, and put it on a plate" kinda guy to me. I have a hard time believing you rock a well done piece of meat.
That said, I agree with your assertion that when you do work for someone else, generally you adhere to their guidelines.

I used to order meat well done... when I was 12. Give a good ribeye or NY strip a go at medium rare and see what the fuss is about before deciding.

i like most of my meat (and eggs) pretty much burnt.
supposedly eating meat well done is usually because your family does it.
families usually do it because their parents did it, and so on, till you get to the point that your ancestors were poor, and had to cook the meat well done because it was spoiling or garbage meat.
the end.

i like my meat bother ways, i love a pink(not bloody) steak thats got that nice tender feelin in your mouf, but then i also like when its slightly burnt, peeps say it takes away the flavor but i think it adds some because if your cooking it right there's bound to be spices and/or bbq on it, and those burnt spots are going to be concentrated globs of nom nom nom
but the last time i ate steak when i was out i asked for it well down, they bring it out and its bloody, i eat it anyway and the kids at my table go to the bathroom to throw up and then there place gets a bad rep for 2 reasons

You can get both if you give your steak a good pan sear before grilling/ broiling. You get a nice crust and are able to still cook it to the perfect medium-rare.
