Does an iron skillet need to be to cook blackened steak on a bbq grill? My grill has a theromoeter on it and I dont wanna burn anything. I also wanna keep the Fire Dept. out of it this time. Steaks are 1" thick NY Strips.
 
All the brazillians I've seen have been very hot. Thanks for the conversion.

There you go, Jack. Just get a couple of brazillians in.
 
Ask and you shall recieve. Ask young paduwan!!!!
It need to be fuckin' hot. If you're putting the iron skillet on the grill, it won't get hot enough...It needs to be directly on a flame to heat up properly!
:Chef: :tuc:

Alright then, I'll heat the skillet on the stove and use Vise Grips to transfer it outside? The last time, my dumb ass did it in the house which soon became filled with smoke.

NNNOOOOOOOO......Not inside bro...Please stop..........
Is the grill gas or coal? :Chef: :tuc:

Gas grill.
Put the skillet right on the flames bro. Then crank the grill all the way up. If the skillet begins to turn white, it's hot enough...lol :Chef: :tuc:

Cool man...thanks. I'm firing the bitch up right now.
 
Something a lot of people don't realize is that the steak shoudl be brought up to ~room temp before you cook it. Putting a cold steak on a hot grill will end up w/ a burnt outside and cold inside.

Why don't you just put the steaks on the grill? Why are you using a pan?

Blackened steak...I want a black crust and burned fat on both sides and pink in the middle. Kind of like cajun type stuff. I got this seasoning just for that particular purpose. Speaking of which, I can smell the grill smoking.

And yeah, room temp, I douched the steaks in butter and packed the seasoning all over them. I'm either gonna have a good breakfast/lunch, or I'm gonna burn down my fucking house.:)

Another thing people don't realize is searing the steak doesn't keep "the juices" inside. What it does is create a Maillard Effect in which the outside proteins are charred creating and overall different taste profile. The mother fucker is still going to bleed.
I generally always allow the meat to sit out for a few minutes. But when you work in the field or professionally this subtle detail is not very appropriate considering you are restrained by time! :Chef: :tuc:
 
newbies and inch thick steaks normally end in disaster

cooking steak should be like dating a greek woman. start off thin, and gradually get fatter ;)

Do you ever watch Good Eats on the food network? Alton Brown (the host) is kind of a dork and is big on the science behind cooking. He proved the point you made by weighing two pieces of meat pre- and postcooking. He seared one then roasted it, then just roasted the other. They both lost almost the same % of weight.

Jack- that sounds good. I've never tried that before.

Yo...read the book On Food and Cooking by Harold McGee. It is all based on food science. It's a great fuggin' book and I've read it multiple times. :Chef: :tuc:

uh, sure thing. im not so sure about cooking the second side as long as the first, but...good luck, daniel-san. may all the pink in your future...be the right sort ;)
 
The steaks turned out pretty damn good! I was far more successful than the last time I attepmted this!! GoldenD, ok, so the pink is a little off center, but next time, I will know better. I used some stuff called 'Chef Paul Prudhommes Blackened Steak Magic"..you can get it at Farmer Jacks.

Let the feast begin :evil: :p
