I have a question can someone help

Pardon my French. I am telling exactly no one HOW to eat their steak. All I did was point out the proper way to COOK a RIB steak. Feel free to take it or leave it, just like most other advice on any internet forum.

BTW, I do own a Glock 21 gen 4. I like having a proper handful of gun, in a respectable caliber, that hold 13+1 rounds. To me it is the perfect house gun. The stupid little penis on the trigger drives me INSANE. Though not quite insane enough to overcook a good Rib Steak.

When I met my wife, she was a medium (YACK) well steak eater. I absolutely refuse to do that to an innocent cow. I got her to try rare. She now prefers her steaks cooked properly, also. Why? Because it tastes better that way!

True story. Many years ago, I went to Eddy's Steak Shed in Granger. I ordered a Rib Steak, rare. When placing my order, I emphasized "rare, it should be cool in the center". My steak was brought to the table WAY over cooked. I sent it back (that place was expensive), with the same instructions. The second one arrived, also overdone. Again, I sent it back. A short time later, the cook came to my table. "You tell me how to cook your steak." "I asked for rare, bloody rare. Put it on the grill. Wait 30 seconds. Turn it over. Wait 30 seconds. Serve it. That is bloody rare." A few minutes later the cook returned with my third steak. He politely stated that he wanted me to taste it, to make sure it was done to my satisfaction. I cut it in half, exposing the properly (not) cooked interior, and took a bite. "Perfection. This is rare. Thank you."

For those of you who need something else to rag on: I also eat bacon right out of the refrigerator. I prefer it laid out on a plate for about 10 minutes first, but fresh out of the fridge is fine, too.

Eating bacon like that makes me wonder about your other choices too. Tricinosis can cause mental disorders before death. Perhaps this is what you're experiencing?

Back to the steak topic: I absolutely love A1 sauce, and will put it on even the best of steaks.

That's because you like A1 sauce. Not steak.

But does the cow have pineapple on it...

Well yes, and that goes without saying.
Pineapple it's even good when smoked with The Other White Meat.

Oh I like steak, but it’s far from my favorite cut of beef. 9 times out of 10, I would choose one of my griddle burgers over any steak, and 10 out of 10 times I’d choose a nice, slow cooked roast over steak.

Oh, heaven help me. I actually agree with this.

Your taster, you get to pick. I'll just eat the steaks. That's ok.

CDC estimates 15 cases per year in the US. Most of those are from eating infected wild game, predominantly bear. I can't find any account of death from this disease in the US.

Several things I do are way more risky than eating raw bacon. Such as driving to work: 40,000 people died in car accidents in the US last year. Or riding a motorcycle - 6,000 fatalities in 2022. This one is really interesting: 250,000 people in the US die every year from medical mistakes. This is the third leading cause of death in the US. Moral of the story: Americans (people in general) are really bad at assessing risk. Seems to me that my risk of dying from Trichinosis is right up there with the risk of being eaten by a shark, in my shower.

We can only hope you are the one case of shower shark bite. Maybe we'll get really lucky and it will happen to you twice.
