We had steak. It was grilled on a Korean grill on a butane stove. I haven't used the grill before and it performed great. How was it able to sear the steak with so little oil and without splattering? Perhaps it is some kind of Korean magic. The pan has a granite/Maifan coating, not a Teflon or ceramic coating. You should use a little oil on this coating. I think the pan has a double wall construction that reduces the heat transfer to the surface. This is probably to protect the cooking surface. I normally wouldn't cook at such a reduced temperature but it seems to work fine.
