Brutus: I'm going to put the steaks on the grill now, Gladys!
Gladys: Please don't make mine too well done!
Gladys: His grilling guidelines are: when they're brown, they're getting close, when they're black, they're done!
This is a version of a saying of post Civil War cowboys in the book “Texas” by James Michner about the way that they wanted their beef cooked. In the book, the saying was “When it’s brown it’s still cooking, when it’s black it’s almost done.”
Reminds me of a Restaurant I went to once., and there was acustomer in there that ordered some toast with his breakfast.He told the waitress that he wanted them to burn it because he would not eat it any other way. So they burned it for himand made the guy happy ! True Story.

you folks are all too sophisticated for me….I like it on the grill long enough to get grill marks.
