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? -- Nonny Nonnymus A penny saved is obviously a government oversight. |

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. ;-) -- Steve |

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