FAQ: Carnivore Steak Tartare with Blue Cheese
Welcome to the Carnivore Steak Tartare with Blue Cheese FAQ section, where I answer all your possible and impossible questions about this meaty masterpiece! Dive in for some serious tips and a few laughs along the way!
Is it safe to eat raw beef?
Absolutely, as long as you use very fresh, high-quality beef from a trusted source. You can think of it as the meat lover’s version of sushi. Just make sure your beef is as fresh as your sense of humor.
Can I use any type of blue cheese?
Yes! Feel free to use your favorite blue cheese, whether it’s Roquefort, Gorgonzola, or Stilton. Just remember, the funkier the smell, the better the taste. It’s adding a punch of flavor to your steak tartare.
What if I don’t have unrefined sea salt?
No worries! Regular sea salt or even pink Himalayan salt will do the trick. Just avoid table salt—this dish deserves better than that.
Can I cook the egg yolk?
Well, of course you could, but then it wouldn’t be an authentic steak tartare, would it? The raw yolk is what gives it that luxurious, creamy texture. Embrace your inner carnivore and go raw!
How long does it take to prepare this dish?
You can have this dish ready in less than 5 minutes. Yes, you read that right—less than 5 minutes to carnivore heaven. Thanks to the ground beef, it’s faster than waiting for your delivery guy or queuing in the drive-thru line at your favorite burger joint.
Can I add other ingredients to the mix?
Sure, if you want to get creative and maybe tolerate a few plant ingredients, go for it. For more tips, be sure to check the Tips for Variations section at the end of this post. But remember, simplicity is key here; adding too much might make your tartare feel like it’s having an identity crisis.
What if my friends think eating raw meat is weird?
More for you! But seriously, if they’re that out of touch with a proper human diet, you might as well start searching for new friends. Your call.
Can I make this dish for a romantic dinner?
Definitely! Believe me, nothing says “I love you” like a plate of raw beef and blue cheese! Just make sure your date is as big a carnivore as you are. If not, more for you again!
Can I serve this dish at a kids’ birthday party?
Only if you want to see a lot of confused little faces. This dish is best enjoyed by those with a more mature palate. Stick to the keto cake and ice cream for the kiddos.
Will this dish turn me into a werewolf?
I can’t confirm or deny that. But hey, if you start howling at the moon and growing fur, at least you’ll know why. Enjoy your new superpowers responsibly.
Can I pair this with wine?
Naturally, if alcohol is part of your diet. A bold, dry red wine like a Cabernet Sauvignon or a Malbec will complement the rich flavors beautifully. Plus, it’s a great excuse to drink wine with your steak tartare.
What if I don’t have a serving plate?
No plate? No problem. Just eat it straight from the bowl. I won’t judge. In fact, it might make the experience even more primal and satisfying.
What if I accidentally drop the yolk on the floor?
Five-second rule! Or better yet, just get another egg and let your pet gulp down the delicious and nourishing yolk—it makes their fur shine! Besides, we’re not savages here, despite our love for raw meat.
Can I make this dish while camping?
Why not? Just be sure to keep your ingredients properly chilled. Nothing says “outdoor adventure,” like whipping up a gourmet steak tartare in the wild. Just watch out for bears—they like steak tartare, too.
What if I want to eat this every day?
Go for it! Just make sure you’re sourcing high-quality ingredients each time. This dish will provide you with all the nutrients you need, so if you want to eat this steak tartare every day for the rest of your life, you’ll indeed be properly nourished.

Step-by-Step Instructions for Carnivore Steak Tartare with Blue Cheese
In a small bowl, combine 6 oz (170 g) of very fresh ground beef…
…and 2 oz (60 g) of crumbled blue cheese. Let them get acquainted.
Separate 1 very fresh pastured egg. Add the white to the bowl with the beef and cheese. Save the yolk for later—it’s got a starring role.
Use your hands to mix and knead the ingredients until they’re well combined. Remember to wear gloves!
Season with a pinch of unrefined sea salt to taste.
Form the mixture into a patty. I prefer to use a shallow bowl to get a smooth and pretty patty.
Like this.
Make a tiny, shallow well in the middle—it will be a cozy nest for the yolk.
Transfer the patty to a serving plate. Presentation is key, even for carnivores.
Gently place the egg yolk into the well you made earlier. It’s the crown jewel of your culinary creation.
Serve immediately and enjoy your masterpiece. Fast food at its best!

How I Came Up with This Easy Carnivore Fast Food Recipe
In the midst of a hectic week, I was desperate for a quick lunch. My original plan was to whip up yet another carnivore omelet roll, this time stuffed with ground beef and blue cheese. I’d already made that version and shared the recipe with my private community. But I was so swamped that I couldn’t spare the time to prepare the omelet roll.
Then, a stroke of genius hit me: why not make a steak tartare with the ground beef and add blue cheese for flavor? It sounded both delicious and nourishing. Naturally, I wanted to crown my steak tartare with a raw egg yolk. But then I’d be left with an egg white—what to do with that?
Another light bulb went off: I could mix the egg white into the steak tartare! It would be the perfect binder and nothing would go to waste. Just a few minutes later, I had a gorgeous ground-beef-based steak tartare topped with a glorious egg yolk staring back at me from the plate.
I tasted a bit and was sold immediately: the texture was soft and easy to eat, and the blue cheese lent an incredibly delicious flavor. The fresh egg yolk created a rich and creamy sauce. It was pure enjoyment in every forkful!
I posted the recipe and a photo of this impromptu dish to my private community, and it was warmly welcomed. For that recipe, I had used 7 oz (200 g) of ground beef, but it was a bit too much meat compared to the egg yolk, so I decided to reduce the meat for this version.
I can assure you, this steak tartare is bursting with flavor plus it’s incredibly nourishing. I’ve gulped down several of them during this insanely busy week, and they’ve given me both nutrients and strength!
Here’s the recipe for you to enjoy:

Tips for Variations
If you’re like me and eat this dish on a daily basis, you might occasionally want some variation in your steak tartare. This section will give you ideas for swaps and add-ons to keep your meaty meal tasty and interesting.
Carnivore Variations
Bacon Bliss: Add 1/4 cup (60 ml) of cooked, crispy, crumbled bacon to the mix for even more savory goodness. Because, once again, everything is better with bacon, right? Feel free to use smoked sea salt instead of regular unrefined sea salt to amp up the smoky flavor.
Cheese Swap: Instead of blue cheese, try another flavorful cheese like freshly grated Parmesan, Swiss, or aged Cheddar. Or how about crumbled feta? It gives your steak tartare a tasty Mediterranean touch.
Liver Lover: If you consume organ meats, finely chopped raw liver mixed into the ground beef mixture will provide you with even more nutrients and add a rich, primal flavor.
Bone Marrow Boost: Mix in a little bit of roasted or smoked bone marrow to your steak tartare. It lends an incredibly delicious flavor that makes your meal even more rich, satisfying, and nutritious!
Salmon Swap: For seafood lovers, swap the ground beef for raw, wild-caught salmon. It’s like hearty carnivore sushi (although I have a proper carnivore sushi recipe here.
Keto Variations
Classic Steak Tartare: Give your steak tartare a classic touch with chopped raw onion, capers, chopped fresh parsley, and freshly ground black pepper. It’s a perfect keto meal, even for the finest dinner parties!
Lemon Punch: Add 1 teaspoon of freshly grated zest from an organic lemon and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to your steak tartare mixture for a fresh, citrusy note that complements the rich meat and cheese.
Meet the Beet: For a beautiful color and mellow taste, mix in 1/4 cup (60 ml) of grated or finely cubed cooked beetroot to your ground beef mixture. Here in the Nordic countries, we have pickled beetroots that are a wonderfully tasty alternative—considering you can find a product without added sugar. Yes, many ketoers avoid plants that grow underground, but this tiny amount of beetroot keeps the carbs still low.
Crunchy Pickle Pop: Add 1/4 cup (60 ml) of finely chopped sugar-free pickled cucumber to your ground beef mixture. It adds a delightful contrast to the rich beef and creamy blue cheese both texturewise and tastewise.
Radish Revel: Finely chop a couple of fresh radishes or some peeled daikon radish and mix them in for a super crunchy twist. Your steak tartare will look even more gorgeous and taste amazing while still being keto-friendly.
General Prattling
Just when I think my life can’t get any busier, I find myself almost literally buried in work. In last week’s post, I mentioned that I received a large order from a huge health food online store here in Finland. Well, this week, I was knee-deep in packing those products and the order, and finally managed to send it off on Thursday.
Yes, I printed out labels for the pouches, cut them, colored some, attached them, packed the contents, sealed the pouches, and slapped on the expiry date stickers—398 pouches in total! And that’s not all; I still had numerous orders for my own online store to handle.
So, on Thursday, I shipped a whopping 72kg (159lbs) of products to the online store that had placed their first order. My 14-year-old son bravely carried the heaviest parcel, which weighed 28kg (62lbs).
Even though it was a lot of physical work, I have to admit that I enjoy it much more than sitting in an office, which I did for a couple of decades in my past. I really love my busy business where I get to do so many different tasks and things never get monotonous!
I just figured out what I am cooking tomorrow. I cannot wait for it.
PS. Thank you for another easy and nourishing recipe. You are absolutely right that adding a bit of bacon will make this even more delicious.
Thank you for your kind comment! I hope you like this quick and easy recipe—maybe with some additional bacon 🙂
