I've done that when I made bruschetta, and that turned out well. Never thought about doing it with steak. Good idea!

Texans know meat! If you're referring to the fact that there's no grill involved in my method, it's because I live in an apartment, so I don't get to grill as often as I like.

Convert a window-garden box into a grill. Problem solved!

Mookie - I think Razark was angling for an invite to try your cooking skills.

I'm quite hungry now after reading this thread and think I'll suggest steak for a meal soon, but the wife's a veggie so she can have a nut cutlet or some such stuff.

Can't quite stretch to Kobe beef though

I learned it from my dad. He considers garlic to be a side dish. His garlic bread includes chunks of raw garlic, in addition to whatever gets baked on.

Yeah, Houston isn't as bad as some areas. I've lived in a few towns that would have no problem lynching someone that cooks a steak inside. Most apartments had a grill on the balcony, or even in the parking lot.

Mine is pretty simple. I prefer sirloin, coat the pan with coconut oil and cook on mid heat. Flip the steak often allowing it to sear and cook evenly. When almost done add a bit of soy sauce and keep flipping and working it around in the pan until done.

(Grilled with charcoal is best though)

I reckon the simplest (and tastiest) thing to do is to grab any steak (what ever you fancy or can afford), then get your BBQ (I hope for steak sake you have one) or use a large cast-iron pan, the do the usual oil etc. Put herbs in if you want, then grill the steak 5-7mins each side (7 for thick as bricks) and then eat. You could also experiment? might come up with interesting and tasty combos
