this thread has been delivered on the comedy which I believe was the intent of his original post.

a few points, if you are looking to sear gas grill with a sear burner is better than any charcoal. my sear burner can get a black iron skillet over 750F so I would imagine the direct heat is beyond that. The claims were the infrared would reach 1100, but I am skeptical. It will make a medium rare steak (~1") in 4/3. Seared tuna in 2/1

you are using just salt and pepper because you say you want to taste the meat then you put it over lump charcoal which adds a flavor to it...weird. not to mention covering up the flavor of asparagus with a balsamic glaze and citrus. Don't get me wrong, it sounds delicious, but just at odds with what you were doing.

Really depends on what one wants to do.

I have seen it done both ways. I prefer the sear first to seal the outside, but if you are keeping it to medium rare then losing the juices aren't going to be much of a problem.

btw, from your potatoes it looks like to wrap them in foil. Have you tried baking them with no foil and just a little salt crust on the outside. It makes the potato skin super crisp, but it doesn't have the baked in flavor if you are using butter in that foil.

Those were yukon gold's oil rubbed with garlic, sea salt and pepper cooked with no foil at 400+/- indirect on the ceramic grill. After that cook I implemented the no calls accepted during grilling as I like rare/med rare steak and some yahoo kept yammering at me on the phone while I seared the steak.

Broseph clean that patio, I got a blower you can borrow if needed.

those look like cheapass Winn Dickme steaks
