Sizzling Steaks and Perfect Pairings

A Guide to Enjoying the Best Steak Experience

At Fernie's On the Go, we take pride in delivering the perfect steak experience to our clients. Whether you’re planning a private event or catering for a movie set, understanding the different levels of doneness for steak, pairing it with the right wine, and creating the ideal seating arrangement can elevate your dining experience.

Understanding Steak Doneness Levels

When it comes to steak, everyone has their own preference for doneness. Here’s a quick guide:

1. Rare: Bright red center, cool to warm. Soft and tender.

2. Medium Rare: Warm red center. Firm outside, soft inside.

3. Medium: Pink and firm. Warmer center with more firmness.

4. Medium Well: Slightly pink center. Mostly firm and more chewy.

5. Well Done: Completely cooked through, no pink. Firm and slightly chewy.

Each level offers a unique texture and flavor, allowing you to choose the perfect doneness to suit your taste.

Wine Pairings for Steak

Pairing your steak with the right wine enhances the flavors and makes for an unforgettable dining experience. Here are some of the best wines to pair with steak:

1. Cabernet Sauvignon: Rich and full-bodied, perfect for robust, meaty flavors.

2. Merlot: Smooth and velvety, ideal for medium to well-done steaks.

3. Zinfandel: Bold and spicy, pairs well with grilled or barbecued steak.

4. Malbec: Fruity and dark, great for rare to medium-rare steaks.

5. Syrah/Shiraz: Deep and peppery, complements the hearty flavors of steak.

These wines enhance the taste of your steak, making each bite a delight.
