I think he meant to say Philly rare; like the awards in their Super Bowl showcase.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pittsburgh_rare

A Pittsburgh rare steak (or as the locals call it, "Pittsburgh black") is one that has been heated to a very high temperature very quickly, so it is charred on the outside but still rare or raw on the inside. The degree of rareness and the amount of charring on the outside may vary according to taste. The term "Pittsburgh rare" is used in some parts of the American midwest and eastern seaboard, but similar methods of sear cooking are known by different terms elsewhere, including Chicago-style rare and, in Pittsburgh itself, black and blue.

When I go to a good steak house, I ask for my steak to be cooked medium-rare Chicago. If the waiter doesn't know what that is, I'll order a salad.

Salad with dressing on it, or served on the side. Dressed or on the side.

Pittsburgh looks like a piece of coal (hence the reference) on the outside, black on the outside, red in the middle, Cajuns would call it blackened (with a black hot peppered crust).
