That’s a stupid idea. Bring it to room temp then throw the heat to it.
It’s a steak, not an eggo..,treat it with the respect you paid for.
And, yes...charcoal all the way.
[Tho I am wondering if a pizza oven like an ooni might work too]
My cousin cooks his steaks in an Ooni. They’re good and it’s quick, though I take time and reverse sear. Cooking at 215° in the oven till thermometer reads 100° , then searing in cast iron or carbon steel for 3 min a side.
