Having a wife that is a successful Engineer who can pretty much fix / build anything at the house ( I hold the zero end of the tape measure) while raising two kids I find that the egg gives my the satisfaction of contributing something to the household. Today was Flank Steak. marinated over night  450 degrees 4 min a side and a nice medium rare.

    That looks PERFECT!  I don't know why I so often let mine get more done.  Wow that looks good!

    I usually slice mine at an angle, the blade not exactly parallel to the surface, but it winds up with slices that are about the thickness of yours, but the width is more like 2 or 3 inches.  I've never cut it the way you did, but yours looks so GOOD I'm wondering if maybe it'd be better to slice them the way you did.  The "grain" looks longer, a bit stringier, the way I slice them.  Have you tried it both ways, and do you like this way better?

    Part of the problem might be that I've had some health problems and haven't been able to grill for a very long time.  I think I'm finally going to get my Eggs going again soon, and your photos are making my stomach growl.  :)
