A steak pun is a rare medium well done.

Posted on September 28, 2025 by Joke Poo

r/steak mod deleted this when I posted it saying it was a shit post.

Joke Poo: A Coffee Puns

A coffee pun is a latte puns, they are darkly roasted.

Alright, let’s get meaty with this joke dissection.

Original Joke Breakdown:

  • Core Concept: It’s a pun, relying on the double meaning of words related to steak doneness (“rare”, “medium well done”) and the common phrase “well done.”
  • Humor Source: The unexpected connection between steak preparation levels and the evaluation of a joke (being “well done” meaning good).
  • Wordplay: Key words are “rare” (meaning infrequent and a steak cooking level) and “medium well done” (a steak level and a slightly backhanded compliment when you use the phrase “well done”).

Why the original poster was likely deemed correct:

  • It’s a simple, almost too obvious pun. The setup is direct and the punchline is predictable.
  • Steak purists can be quite particular about doneness. The joke implicitly acknowledges this, which could ruffle some feathers if they deem the pun low-effort.

Now, let’s enrich this comedic landscape!

Here are a few options:

Option 1: The Meta-Commentary Joke (Playing on the Reddit Mod’s Reaction)

“Why did the r/steak mod ban the steak pun? Because they said it was ‘rarely funny’ and ‘medium well, I’m done with this’.”

  • Enrichment: Directly addresses the original poster’s experience and incorporates steak doneness levels into a new punchline about someone being annoyed.

Option 2: The Absurd Steak Doneness Scale

“Apparently, my jokes are cooked to the ‘politician’s promise’ level of doneness. Rare on the truth, medium-well on the details, and well-done on the spin.”

  • Enrichment: The joke uses the concept of doneness but applies it to the way that Politicians tell the truth. This humor comes from the absurdity and contrast between steak cooking and the art of political manipulation.

Option 3: The “Did You Know?” with a Twist

“Did you know that the term ‘rare’ to describe steak originated in the 18th century? Back then, it described how often someone actually enjoyed my jokes… which is also ‘rare’.”

  • Enrichment: Introduces a small historical fact (which is more or less true), then subverts it with self-deprecating humor. This elevates it from a pure pun to a slightly more sophisticated observation.

Option 4: Combining it all!

“So I told a steak pun on r/steak, and the mod deleted it saying it was a ‘rare’ failure… much like a steak cooked to ‘well done’. Did you know that ‘well done’ on the internet means you’ve either achieved peak comedy or utterly failed? There is no ‘medium well’ in the digital world”

  • Enrichment: This combines the original scenario and humor with an internet culture joke.

Hopefully, these enrichments are a bit more well done (pun intended!) than the original. They attempt to add layers of self-awareness, absurdity, or factual context to the basic pun.
