Get that grill HOT so they're done properly. Don't need any sauce when it's done right, as Jimbo stated.
Gonna have to try the embers method, interesting!
Well done steak? Have some beef jerky instead.

Now THAT's what I'm talkin' about!
Medium-rare.
I don't want my steak - - - whether it's beef, venison, buffalo. . . . tough and chewy.
Just as long as that hunk of meat doesn't go "Moo" and move around the table by itself, we'll be just fine.

Rare if its an expensive place I trust. Medium-rare if its not an expensive place or it comes from the grocery store.
I don't see how anyone can order well done at a restaurant. Did you know you're more likely to get old steaks or "do-overs" when you order well-done? Its because it cooks the taste and tenderness out of it and makes it hard to tell who good the meat quality is.
In my younger days I used to eat them medium-well because I thought the red meat looked gross. Then I was properly introduced to a properly cooked medium-rare filet and the rest is history. Only steak I don't get rare or medium rare is a ribeye because the fat needs to be burned off a little.

My ex (#1.....and #2 come to think about it, another reason for the 'ex' maybe?) used to like his well done, whenever we BBQ'd a tri-tip his friend or I would turn of the grill about 1/2 hour before he thought it was done, used to at least be pink in the middle that way!
My huband is a great griller, as long as he tells me it's done enough to eat that's good, beef, venison, elk, whatever -- med-rare to rare, depending on the source.

Rare. Or rarer. We raise grass fed beef and since that's a bit leaner than the corn-fed stuff cooking it too much is a real crime. And yes, we do enforce that - if you ask for well-done at my house you're likely to get nothing but a hotdog! 
Get the grill good and hot, slap it on the grill, turn around like you're going inside, turn back around and take it off. My cousins, being from the south, haved been known to look at my steak and say "I've seen a cow burnt worse than that and live!"
BTW, unless it's *really* raunchy to start with (like green and slimy), no one ever e coli from eating steak, only from hamburger...

Rare, just tanned on the outside. Walk up to the cow. Slice off a nice thick steak and toss it on the grill flip and eat it. .
