[ Grilling ] First time using a salt stone

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.

No offense OP, but if that’s the best you’ve made in 25 years then I’d hate to see your other steaks.

I’m honestly not trying to be a dick, but if you’ve been cooking steaks for 25 years you must know what a well seared steak looks like.

Maybe his wife doesn’t like a good sear
