He did it on Good Eats as well, but for those that haven't seen it: LINK

I think I'm going to do flat iron instead, and make some sandwiches with a roasted red pepper aioli and some arugula. Also have some leftover chimichurri that I might throw on.

CSB, right?

Did this about a month ago with Skirt steak. I overlooked it a tad, but it was still great.

I don't get the benefit aside from looking cool for your frat boy friends.

Sure. Let me know how it goes. I've been wanting to do it since seeing it a while back, but have never gotten around to it. I've also seen where he does one of a grate above a chimney starter. Make sure to document your cook for us.

My bad, it was below and above the chimney. LINK

I've done it a few times in the past with marinated flank steak. It came out really nicely, honestly. Great sear. It's kind of a pain in the arse in my grill, but I think it's worth it. The best part about it is there's a very, very low risk of flare ups (due to lack of oxygen) so you can do it with heavy marinades.

Awesome sear, no flare ups, less time overall on direct heat (which is good or bad depending on what you're going for) and less clean up.
