    A properly butchered, perfectly cooked flat iron (like that one!) goes toe to toe with any steak, as far as I'm concerned. I like mine swimming in compound butter with a nice stack of twice-cooked frites and a lemony garlic aioli on the side.

    I'm not a fan of the Jaccard, but flanks, skirts, and flatiron steaks all benefit from the Jaccard when you grill (broil/cook/braise) them quickly.

    Want a great flat iron marinated steak?, buy some jack daniel marinate in zip lock bags, buy flat iron steaks in vacuum sealed bags, they are usually in 16 ounce cuts. Place the steaks in the jack daniel marinade in the fridge for 24 hours, when ready to grill, take them out a couple hours before and sit on kitchen counter to start coming up to room temp, i prefer hickory, they also have mesquite, and 1 other flavor i cannot think of. The bags of marinate will be in a trifold bag in the bbq sauce aisle of your grocer, or should be. Grill to your liking, delicious.

    I've loved you guys for years and this looks like a great recipe. I have one big gripe that also goes back years: You often take so much care to show using the precise measurements of everything (for example, dan withe the amount of salt and spice rub in this recipe), but then when you use a grill, you always "season" it by having whaqt looks like 1/2 to a full cup of oil in a saucer and using that with the tongs+paper towels. Do you expect home cooks to waste that much oil? Or do you take that saucer and dump it back into your big bottle of oil? Would love to hear what *really* happens with all that oil and/or what home cooks should really do. Thanks!

    Cooking oil is pretty cheap. You can buy a bottle for under $2. If you don't want to use that much, then don't. But to fill it back into the bottle will ruin the bottle of oil. It's not exact science.
