Default which comes first

I have an IR grill that produces about 3500f heat, alongside my regular
gas grill. I typically use the regular grill to do chops, since most
folk prefer them done better all the way through than when I nuke them
on the IR grill. The IR one works better for steaks, IMHO.

Anyway, tonight I did some pork chops on the grill, then nuked them for
20 seconds per side on the IR grill, which gave a little more crust to
them then if I'd just taken them off and served them right off the
regular grill. A discussion ensued about which would be better first.
Should I nuke the outside on the IR grill, then finish off on the
regular one, or do the opposite, as I did tonight? Any thoughts?

Personally, I'd sear them on the IR (if I had one) first and
then finish them on the lower heat. Kind of like searing a
fillet in a smoking CI skillet and then finishing in the oven.

I think you may be able to control the degree of doneness
better that way. But that's just me. ;-)

3500 degrees F? Wow, you could use that to melt steel or cast iron! :-)
