It looks medium rare - sort of, but very poorly cooked. Looks as if it was way too cold when put on the fire. The very center looks red and cold, ie. rare. I'd send it back if I ordered it med. rare.

Medium-rare if done just right, but as most places tend to over-cook your steak a little bit I often order just rare.

Topped with blue cheese, with a side of something carb laden and enjoyed with a beer:

Looks good. ^
I think I'd have put the blue cheese crumbles on and let is sit on the covered grill for just a bit to start the melt process on the cheese... Yummy!

Haha you caught me! Several beers were indeed consumed. Thanks for the cheese suggestion actually, I've been looking for a way to get the cheese to melt more to the steak and that sounds like a great suggestion.
