Q1 · PART 1 · THE GRILL
What internal temperature does the USDA recommend for medium-rare beef, and what does dad usually pull it at?
USDA says 145°F with a 3- minute rest for medium-rare. Dad pulls his steak at 128°F, argues carryover cooking, and he's mostly correct — the meat climbs 5-7°F resting.
