Have only hit the coals twice this season which is about 98% less than usual. Started using a Staub grill pan over the winter and am hooked. Running it at medium/high heat on a halogen cooktop and get nice charred stripes. Did burgers the other night and they were the best ones yet, seared perfect & juicy. Does not seem to matter what I cook, from turning on the stove to serving it's ~10 minutes and sink clean-up later. I did a BBQ earlier this week and it was parity, as good as what's coming off the stove. Never thought I would be saying this.
