Now lets rock.
 
Skirt steak.

After about 3 hours I took it out of the marinade and rubbed it with ancho chile/lime and slapped
 
it on la plancha.

I haven't cooked on my flat top/grill in a while due to the cooler weather here. I only have old pics, and would have to double post.............if that's ok?

Post away senor!
 
I can play in here ...

I need to have a better controlled heat gradient next time I cook on the baking-steel griddle on the Weber, though ...

You are so anal.
 
Just heat that big slab o' steel up and get rockin'!
 
This ain't rocket science.
 
Heat source + metal + meat/veg.
 
Get it on.
 
Bang a gong.
 
The whole thing was turnt up to 11 last time ... I was burning buns in < 5 seconds at the end ... was runaway hotness.
 
Next time I'll put the coals under one side, so i have a cooler side of the griddle ...

Up coming flat top menu selections.
 
Ribeye. 
 
Either a steak or sliced thin for cheese steak.
 
Maybe both.
 
CFS.
 
A Texas tradition often done on a flat top.
 
Cuban sammich...
 
Pork, ham, bread etc. ala plancha...that's what makes a proper Cubano!
 
Lobster reuben.
 
The latter sounds like weirdness but...
 
Trust.
 
Its unbelievable.
 
And inevitably I have to do a flat topped pizza.
 
Got dang right I do!
 
There really is no end to the madness y'all.
 
The list is endless.
 
Tonight is papas con huevos.
 
Thanks TB!.
 
I think that ribbed, causes fat to slide sideways, right?
 
Then steaks are cooked in their juices. With less fat under less fried flavor. When fat is pooled under the meat, the meat is fried in its own fat.
 
To use spatula and move the meat is better smooth plate. For steaks, no doubt corrugated iron to me.
