I hate to say it, but I just sprinkle it with a Montreal steak seasoning and use my large ceramic coated George Foreman grill. It cooks 2 steaks on both sides at the same time and takes about 7 minutes to cook a 2-inch thick steak. An outside open grill is too unpredictable. I would either overcook or undercook the steak.

Our indoor grill only goes to 450 degrees so will not sear a steak. What temp will the foreman grill go to?

Best steakhouse around is the "Back Room" located in Apopka Florida

450F is adequate for a good sear. Make sure meat is patted dry, though.

I’ve had “fair” steaks here in The Villages - for “great steaks” - Orlando or Tampa - or even better, my kitchen.

The Palmer CC sells "Certified Angus Beef Prime". Angus is a brand name for beef, not a grade of beef. The people who produce Angus beef claim that their "prime" beef is better than USDA prime beef. What they don't say is if it has actually been graded as "USDA Prime" by the U.S. Government. Very confusing. Maybe a beef expert can explain it.

I thought Angus beef came from a breed of cattle?

I think that is correct. But it is a proprietary name, not a grade of beef.

You nailed it MrChips. And once you master the truly seasoned cast iron pan you will never go back to the BBQ. Add a sprig of rosemary to that butter at the end. Why go to a restaurant and pay a ridiculous price when mine tastes better at home.
