My old man orders his steaks well done, but that comes from being broke as a kid and eating meat that didn't taste good cooked anything less than well done.

Inability to properly decline irregular English verbs.

Yeah I never actually do it. I'll be damned if I'm going to purposely ruin a piece of meat.

Same way with my grandfather.

And you wont even cook your sweet grandfather in the manner he chooses. For shame.

I've never cooked steaks for him, only see him order them that way at restaurants.

From the Atheist camp: "Yeah, well who made God?"
From the religious camp: "So what you're saying is the universe came from nothing?"
and
"Evolution is just a theory."
From the conservative camp: "You're a Socialist eh, so that means you want to take from people to make everyone equal?"
From the liberal camp: "You're a straight, white male, what could you know about being a minority?" (I live in Mexico City)
General: "Why do I need to know about Ukraine?"
"Why do I need to know about things millions of miles away from me?"
Bunches of catchphrases that let me know someone's not that up-to-date with intellectual articles.

People who assume their reality is the same as everyone else's. People who think what works for them, makes them happy, and drives them is the same for everyone.

People who follow recruiting and assume they know what's best for a 17 year old kid.

Oh back to the original Op
People who say "I can't cook". What you mean you can't follow instructions?

Especially with the internet. You have every recipe ever created at your fingertips.

Another food thing that grinds my gears is when I'm cooking steaks and someone asks for theirs well done. That isn't necessarily on topic, but I will forever judge you.
Somewhat related, but people that claim to be good cooks, but are actually terrible cooks drive me crazy. My father-in-law specifically. He'll go to the butcher and get the nicest cuts of prime steaks, throw them in Dale's, then cook them to medium well without even asking how people like them cooked. Then he'll spend the whole meal raving about how good the steaks are.
