Help! Bloody steak?

[Misguidedyouth]

Hello,

I need help! Were sitting for dinner and I heard for dinner were having steak. I saw red stuff (im guessing blood) being poured into the pan before the steaks where put in. What should I do? How can I make an excuse not to eat it? In Genesis 9-3 it says something about blood with the life therof

okay look at the 10 commandments. Does it prohibit eating blood? no? you are good to go unless you are an observant Jew. Very little of the red juice you saw was blood, btw.

Enjoy your steak, you are not doing anything wrong.

No one pours blood into a pan to cook a steak - it could have been a marinade of some sort, perhaps with a bit of red wine in it.

That’s what I was thinking. I don’t enjoy steak but I’ve prepared it a few times, or have been with others who very much enjoy their steak. I have an uncle who thinks steak is best with rarer you can get. hehe it personally icks me out

But I was thinking that perhaps it was wine or marinade. I’ve never heard of cooking something in blood.

“And he called the people to him again, and said to them, ‘Hear me, all of you, and understand: there is nothing outside a man which by going into him can defile him; but the things which come out of a man are what defile him.’ And when he had entered the house, and left the people, his disciples asked him about the parable. And he said to them, ‘Then are you also without understanding? Do you not see that whatever goes into a man from outside cannot defile him, since it enters, not his heart but his stomach, and so passes on?’ (Thus he declared all foods clean.) And he said, ‘What comes out of a man is what defiles a man. For from within, out of the heart of man, come evil thoughts, fornication, theft, murder, adultery, coveting, wickedness, deceit, licentiousness, envy, slander, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within, and they defile a man.’” - Mark 7:14 - 23

The people who were cooking that steak don’t know what they’re doing at all; I don’t know what the circumstances are but don’t eat it.

Steaks go in the heated pan first, to sear them.

Then the sauce should be made whe steaks are removed.

You don’t want a simmered steak.

Yes, meat can be cooked in or with blood (Irish blood sausage, Filipino Dinaguan).

No, steaks are not usually cooked in blood.

No, there is nothing wrong with a Catholic or other Christian eating blood.

There are many, many commandments in the Bible besides the 10 commandments. Most of these (over 500 in fact!) have to due with ritual purity of the Jews, and decided if they were
“clean” or not, and if they were worthy to enter the temple and offer sacrifice there. They do not equal laws for moral behavior. We are not obligated to follow all these commands, as Christians. There is no more temple building, and Christ is the final sacrifice, cleansing us.

Otherwise, we would not be allowed to trim our beards, eat pork, or have tattoos, or make clothing out of two types of linen. Don’t worry about eating blood!
