In spite of myself ('cause I am not the steak maker in the home) I had unexpectedly good results baking/frying a 1 1/8" ribeye by preheating my $4.43 Sam's cast Iron griddle Sam's Club - Cast Iron Griddle - 3 pc. for 30 minutes with oven at 600. 5 minutes on each side and 5 minutes rest on a dinner plate in a 150 warming drawer (wife's guidance on that piece).
So what could be accomplished if I had a sense for what I was doing and why? Off to the web where I found this linkhttp://www.pbs.org/perl/media.cgir?t...01200&e=976600 for dirty steak. The link will take you to a video of Julia Child and freinds cooking a steak directly on oak coals. Nuts! with a little research I could have saved myself $4.43 - - I am going to try it this weekend.
I found the link on this gents site Wood Fired Brick Oven Tampa Food which catalogs his experience building a wood-fired oven. The site is worth visiting, I found paritcularly valuable his couple-o-graphs on thermocouples. Too late for me, but others could save significant bucks.
