High temps aren’t good with olive oil, low smoke point.
Try coconut oil...

You should avoid cooking at high temps anyway. High temperatures induce the formation of carcinogenic heterocyclic amines in meats.

Some folks don’t like the ‘coconut’ taste you can get with coconut oil ... I have found it depends on the brand. I personally use “avocado” oil most of the time. It has no taste and has a high smoke point (570F). Extra Virgin Olive oil is 375F & Coconut oil is 375F (extra virgin) & 450F (refined).

I saw video where the cook stated that avocado oil has highest smoke point...
