They use salt, pepper, and butter. I know it is like 1,800 degrees. They are yummy.

There is a broiler type of oven out there called a Salamander. Google that.

None that can achieve the 1800º that the vulcan does as far as I know...but I have not been around the kitchen equipment business in a very long time...so someone somewhere may have developed one.

Anybody can make a steak sizzle on a hot plate. I can explain if you want, but thread was how to cook it Chris' way.

the same way. Im not sure of the actual temperature, but they come out of the broiler sizzling. There is no special Vulcan or whatever, so i dont know if there is an actual secret.

as far as having to do with the hot plate...the steak makes the plate hot, not the other way around.

Here's how I do it...

When weather permits, I cook my steaks hot and fast on the grill. Just a few minutes on each side turning only once, with tongs. Beside my steaks, on the same hot grill, I heat cast iron fajita pans very hot. Just before I pull the steaks off, I drop 1T unsalted butter into the hot pan, turn the steak on top of the melting butter, then serve-sizzling in the wooden trivet.

Indoors, heat a good stoneware plate in a 450F oven. Prepare the steak anyway you like, serve the same way as the fajita pan method and it will sizzle for several minutes when plated.

Recently, I have been putting a couple dashes of Worcestershire and a couple dashes liquid garlic in a shot glass and pouring in the melting butter before putting the steak on. Just don't pour it on first, the Worcestershire will burn and taste bad.

"the steak makes the plater hot, not the other way around."


Wrong...The platter is heated to the temp the steak was cooked at...that's why they tell you " Don't touch, the plate is hot"...a steak will not sizzle on a plate cooler than the steak.
