What is the point of using a pan on charcoal?

The pan will get very hot, very fast and since it's cast iron it will also hold the heat much better that any other type.

That's the best way to get a good sear on the outside of thick steaks like that.

It’s a grilling technique called Pittsburgh style. I’m told it’s from the iron workers who would take a cut of meat and toss it a slab of iron from the furnace, 2 minuntes per side, crispy on the outside, tender and rare on the inside. The perfect steak.

Thoughts exactly. The charcoal goes UNDER the grill. The meat goes ON the grill. The pan goes INDOORS.
