    you're the one taking direction from your mother in law ... and a steak should not bleed if it's "well done".

    turning meat multiple times while cooking it is why people pay big bucks to have common sense shown to them :lmao: :thud:

    The biggest thing to get the juiciest meats is to let them rest for at least 5 minutes before cutting. Once you cut it, all the juices run out and the meat will end up tasting "dry." Never check doneness with a knife and fork...just touch the meat...you'll be able to guage doneness pretty accurately in no time.

    Always be sure to put the lighter fluid on the charcoal before you put the steaks on the grill.

    Both (for beef).

    I sear mine on max heat for about 2 minutes a side, then turn the heat way down and rotate frequently.

    I work with a Mac Daddy cooker that can get to 500 + in a matter of minutes.

    3 - 4 minutes per side and get it off the grill. I let it rest about 10 minutes. Invest in a set of good tongs. (Oxo Good Grips are what I use) Never use a fork.

    I let the grill get pretty high and oil it. I don't turn it. The spice and marinade will sear.

    I've blackened steaks with the pan sear method. Pretty good, but I prefer the grill.

    Searing meat to keep it juicy is pretty much a myth. How is it possible to "melt" the surface of a steak into something that would hold liquid?
