Q. On an extremely windy day our at a family dinner, the BBQ grill became totally enveloped on a terribly dangerous fire and the neighbors called the fire department. After the fire was B’H extinguished obviously the steaks were totally burned and inedible. Yet if one likes very well done meat, and he would eat and enjoy the inside of the thick meat pieces, does he make a brocho on it? Or do we say that since no one else would touch it, his mind becomes nullified and does not count. Therefore he should make a brocho on something else?
A. Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that he may recite a brocho on the meat if he enjoys it.
