Yep
I'm not hating on a good grilled steak, but to take the stance that a grill is inherently the best way of cooking a steak is ignorant and probably spoken by someone who couldn't tell a Maillard reaction from a mallard duck.
It's a function of rate of heat conduction. Air is shitty at it compared to direct contact. And the additional heat from radiation doesn't compensate for it.
There is a reason why many steakhouses don't use a grill either....

Big green egg is a toy. I would love to get one as a gift to fart around on but they are completely impractical for everyday use. Its good for pulled pork, brisket, etc but i can cook a better steak with my cast iron and oven. My friend has one and I laugh every time he can get only fit 4 burgers at a time on it.
