I'm guessing you like your meat rare...I like it medium to well done.

I remember being fed an evening meal by the company I worked for in Holland whenever you performed an overtime shift.

I was the only guy that didn't have his beafsteak rare.

At the end of the meal most of the plates had a pool of blood on them....mine was still brown gravy coloured

A pool of blood would mean it was not properly rested after cooking.

You can cook a roast medium, and it will be red (not purple, but really red), and won't leak all over the cutting board. I'm a huge gravy fan, too, mind you. I don't mean the red of rare meat, either, it's the redistributed blood. The meat is still cooked to the desired temp. Obviously if "ruined" (as they call "well done" ), there won't be any blood left to redistribute. Resting is huge with steaks/roasts. If you cut it and blood pours out, you did it wrong

Regardless, it's making me hungry for a roast, and yorkshire pudding.

I like roasted veggies with a meal like that. Quartered brussels sprouts, tossed in olive oil and salt, and roasted at 500 degrees (I preheat the pan along with the oven) till the side on the cooking sheet is caramelized. (same works for broccoli)
