     What does it do to the texture of your beouf?

Same as salt on any raw meat, denatures the protein, tightens it up a bit. Not nesscarily a bad change, in fact I know lots of people that like it, but both my wife and I are not fans when it comes to steak. Personal preference is to salt/season heavily directly before hitting the grill.2 zone setup with hot side a Good lump stoked with a hair dryer,well preheated CI Grates flip every 30 seconds or so. Back off to cool zone if flares get too intense with more marbled cuts.

Stoked lump with CI Grates and lots of flipping=awesome crust

   Words, words. Don't you ever just want to grab a gun or a chainsaw or some matches and just get in over your head?
 
 
 
 
     And then try to do some figuring in the moment?
 
 
 
 
     It's like some people learned how to walk using crutches...
 
 
 
 
     :D I'm going to hell for this.

     I find the opposite. These steaks were so tender it was hard to pull them off in one piece. Maybe we're doing things differently.
     And I dunno about that rapid flip technique. Too hard to keep lining up the grill marks so the steak looks purdy. ;)
    
 
 
     So many different ways too cook steak...

Just different philosophies. I don't care about cosmetic stuff like grill marks or slight greyband. I am going for max crust on the lower end of med rare. On that end Grant's cinder cook for my attention the other day[emoji857]

It's seemingly competent thus far!

Much more to come/try ;)
