    as a seasoning, i think the granulated makes more sense.  the minced stuff in a jar can be horrible to begin with, and it won't cook, it'll burn.  the granulated will burn too, as was mentioned.  but you can sprinkle it on after searing.  i only sear with salt.  everything else burns.

    i think fresh minced garlic would be very strong in any mount, and should be cooked somehow.  not sure how you'd use that, honestly, on a steak

    If you have to season your steak with anything other than fresh cracked pepper and sea/kosher salt, a dab seasoned butter right as it comes off the grill seems to be the way to go.

    Pat steak dry. Course Kosher salt. Start the egg. When coals red hot wipe off salt pat dry. Then lightly season with favorite salt. Toss on fire. Sear to crust turn and complete to desired IT. If not big fan of salt dont do second application. I not a big fan of salty taste so i only do one side.
