Bihari Kabab is grilled to charred-edge well-done; Bhopali Pasande is pan-fried Medium-Well; Gujarat Talelu Maans is fried thoroughly; Chhattisgarhi Sookha is dry-fried; Jharkhand's Beef Fry is street-staple high-heat well-done. The pressure-cooking + Buffalo + heavy spice convention universal across the 6 states defaults to Pakka (thoroughly cooked).

Doneness terminology varies by country and restaurant. When unsure, describe what you want (e.g., “warm red center”).
