Ok- I'm sold
Cooking a steak is possible in an Iron Skillet. Heat a skillet till smoking- a bit of olive oil and 4 minutes per side = medium rare. Perfect. I don't know if I will ever go back to a grill. It.was.perfect.

Sounds like something I should try out- I do have some cast-iron in the kitchen.
I will never, ever give up my grill, though. Particle Man is right- you need to surrender that card.

I use that method sometimes.
If I want a steak on a week night (before work) and don't have time to dick with charcoal and the whole setup, I'll use this.

Hell, I have deer steak on a regular basis without ever firing up the grill or having to use a skillet. I just marinate them as they thaw, then throw them on the Foreman for 5 minutes and it works like a charm.

You brush the oil on the steak, or pour it on the skillet first?

Thought about getting one of the new ones with the removable grill plates, but apartment kitchens have little room for storing kitchen gadgets

The ground meat keeps sticking to my old George Foreman grill since the teflon is coming off. Looks like I jacked off it in same as that dude in American pie.

The best steak I've ever eaten was cooked on cast iron.
It was at this place - http://www.doeseatplace.com/ |

Although a lite rub of olive oil on the steak helps the coriander and peppercorn adhere without peircing the meat. I always use bacon fat for deer meat. It's so lean and the little bit of fat really helps it stay juicy. |
