Steak on a hot stone?

[Trix4me]

First time for almost everything. Who else has tried this? Okay by me but the ribeye went from raw to well done too fast. I prefer not to eat a good steak that quickly.

I think when Black Rock Grill started this, it was kinda quirky thing, but meant more for their signature thick filets. I do a similar thing on my little cast iron pans. Heat them to 550 degrees on the grill, put the meat on and a hot griddle press on them, then turn off. Serve on the iron at about 175-200 to keep hot.

I had a fillet at Ruth’s Chris that was cooked that way and wasn’t disappointed!?. I have a 30X20 cast iron griddle and a good sized griddle press that I’ll try your method on as soon as the snow is gone and I can make it to the cabin. Yup thanks for your expertise

Most of the griddle presses are 6-9". Just perfect to use in a cast iron frying pan, so you can throw in some sprigs of thyme and a big pat of butter. Brown butter seared steak would make a believer out of a vegan!!!

Bought this Himalayan salt block a few years ago. Actually works pretty good. It comes with directions which should be heeded. Start at a slow and low heat. Increase it gradually. Work it up to grilling temp and then slap the steak on there for a couple of minutes each side. Works out well. Impresses the hell out of dinner guests.

10 X 10. I’ve got a 16” cast iron frying pan. Perfect

Never tried it. Is the purpose to actually cook the steak or merely keep hot while eating it?

A local restaurant does something similar. Haven’t tried it yet but heard it’s good.

I've had sizzling fajitas served on a hot metal platter but never a steak.

That steak looks great but lets don’t forget that broccoli, yummy…

Fajitas on a hot cast iron skillet are awesome!

The steak was raw when brought to us. Searing on one side. Then I turned it to sear the other. Cut off a piece and sear the edges. The stone is said to be 800 degrees.

I like broccoli but I ate the onion rings and my wife ate most of the broccoli

Ah, so cooking it is the purpose. That's wild.
