Flippity, flip, flip or flip, flip?

[SonVolt]

They DEFINITELY have their place. I rarely used my GrillGrates for the grill marks. They're a great tool for the gasser or fatty cuts. Hell, even just for burgers.

I actually just ordered their half-moon for my BGE. Gonna try it as a heat deflector under an elevated grate when I need to move food away from direct flame. Tired of dealing with heavy fragile stones.

Just surfin' around youtube and up pops a short 4 minute vid from probably Tampa's most respected steakhouse, Bern's, on how they cook steaks. They dry age all their own beef and have a ton of awards.

This thread came to mind at the 1:20 mark. Flip,flip,flip?

I'm pointing out flaws in the flipping experiments as I see them, which is part of the scientific process however cheeky it is. So no, I won't be making a dedicated thread.

If you won’t show you’re cooking method?

You’ve got nothing but werd salad…

It seems to me that we are debating different cooking methods (or at least cooking temps) not just how many times to flip.

Is everyone talking about open (uncovered) direct fire cooking? I assume so because with a cover things cook very differently.

How hot of a fire are we talking? I can say for my open cooker, 4 minutes directly over a hot live fire with the grates anywhere below 1/2 way down will burn just about anything. If I am cooking a steak on the live fire grill, I would rather do multiple flips to give each side a few seconds to cool then raise the grates and not flip.

It's expensive. All the pro sports players- hockey, football, baseball, go there when in town for games.

They claim to have the worlds largest wine selection too.

Here's a look at their menu with prices:

This thread has forced my hand. Next steak I cook I will be flipping it once for every anti-flip comment in the thread.

I cook on 900F IR so i would have to flip every 10 seconds with that method. I usually do 1 min, 1/2 turn, 1 min flip, 1 min, 1/2 turn, 1 min plate and serve.

Just FYI.... The flip every 45 seconds or so works very well on Pork Chops too!
No pictures, but I swear I did it! But, tender, juicy pork chops with a nice crust on them too.
I think I might be a fleaker convert
