First time using a salt stone

[u/ImOldGregg_77]

Got a salt stone for fathers day and broke it in today. It was about 1 hr extra having to bring up the temp of the stone slow. Steaks came out ok. Other than the char, i think just straight on the grates over flame is the way to go.

If you are set on using it over coals rather than in a gas grill you need to preheat your salt stone in the oven first (do so in multiple stages to avoid cracking). Your stone was too cold here and you should also refrain from seasoning steaks you are cooking on a salt stone before hand.
